Why come after the black bloggers who are writing in reference to black stars, what about the white ones who don't cover anything black or even degrade black hollyweird more?<BR/><BR/>And as far as the 'actress' in question, when she becomes oscar worthy than maybe i'll give a d*mn about her opinion, but she'll always be a chitlin circuit actress...sad to say.[flahy] [blak] [chik]https://www.blogger.com/profile/07915740493798041091noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-617426134849640048.post-43495562514710467722007-12-28T10:40:00.000-05:002007-12-28T10:40:00.000-05:00humorous thoughts -- ever since Essence let Time W...humorous thoughts -- ever since Essence let Time Warner buy the magazine I've had an indifferent attitude toward the magazine.
