Aint no black actresses in Hollywood? This is nuts..

[CirocObama]

i fucks with zoe ... she a good actress ... plus she sexy ..so she gets a pass by me .. but she gon have to put on some lb's tho if she gone portray nina ... or else that shit is gone look funny like jamie foxx's skinny ass playing tookie

...i do see how its wack out here for black female actors tho .... shit if you cant even get a brown skin lady to play nina simones ass it just aint no damn hope for the sistahs ....might as well get a real job

It's not even that a black actress can't get a good role, movie studios know that majority of the public (white people) would be less inclined to pay to see a movie with a dark skin actress as the lead.

Think they would give her a chance?

Niggas love to blame media/studios/record companies or w/e.

Why do you think they would be less likely to do that? Because ppl, including ppl of other races, generally find lightskinned women more attractive and the more ppl watch a flick the more likely the studio gonna invest in the shit. You niggas focus too much on the conspiracy. Studios and all that are simply investors tryna back a buck on their investments, if they believe that they aint getting a dime for they buck when they should they invest? The truth is alot of black ppl wanna see that ignant shit which is why it makes the most money and the reason the studios invest in that.

Whats the point of black actresses? Niggas only wanna see hood flicks and they have been done to death, so what they gonna play if aint a white movie?

 

[haute]

lol @ conspiracy

You don't see Robert dinero being asked to play jack Kennedy because its laughable

But they think of nothing of re writing black history figures into some white washed fairy tale

Nina Simone was as black as black could be and she should be protrayed that way

Rosa parks wasn't a crippled old woman who was tired, she was a young woman who worked for the NAACP who planned a sit in, and she should be protrayed as such

Predominant white figures have never been treated in this manner

But when they do this shit to Asian, black, or Hispanic figures everyone is supposed just oh so happy that Hollywood even bothered acknowledging a minority much less give it equal respect

Fuck

Zoe Saldana is some form of black, so it's cool.

Plus she's attractive.

 

[Copper]

zoe probably suk'd some white exec off for that role

 

[fuc_i_look_like]

.... has she ever even been a leading lady or the star of a film

Only one I can think of off the top of my graf is Daddies Little Girls.

and goddamn I can't believe she's 40!

 

[Elzo69Renaissance]

And Bad Boys 2 ...

 

[fuc_i_look_like]

*head (fuck u auto correct)

 

[JDSTAYWITIT]

i woulda went and watched the shit ... prolly still will ...but only the bootleg ...cant give these niggas my money

 

[Shizlansky]

Just cuz sir speak Spanish don't mean she ain't black idiots.

 

[blackrain]

I agree with you that Zoe shouldn't be playing Nina Simone, but you probably shouldn't pick a latina actress that's very open about considering herself a black woman....

So what is the difference between what I said and what you said? You say no one black, white etc wants to see a dark skin chick in a leading role. Very true. I should have made that point. You say I blame the media and that it's not a conspiracy. It's not it's realality. The media is the very reason people don't find dark skin women appealing because it does not fit the standard of beauty the media sets for society. Weather you believe it or not that shit is real. I'm not placing the blame but the shoe does seem to fit.
