So poor Howard Stern is feeling irrelevant so he had to go and say something insulting about Gabourey Sidibe to get some attention. I was going to spend this post advocating for people to not be polite or politically correct. Recently the masses have taken to spewing racist BS and then bemoaning political correctness when confronted. As I have said previously, please America don't be politically correct so that WE can stop being politically correct--I think you'd be shocked at how many Jeremiah Wrights you have in your midst.
However, Howard's rant wasn't racist it was just stupid, mean and ill-informed. So for those that don't know today on his show Stern said that Gabby wouldn't get anymore work because she's enormous. I'm not even going to address resident House Negro Quivers co-signing this foolishness I'll just pose some questions that I hope gives pause and enlightens.
Howard, have you heard of Oprah Winfrey? You know she's one of the richest people on the planet. She was pretty large herself so I think she knows of what she speaks when she says Gabby is going to have a brilliant career. Howard, dear, have you heard of Whoopi Goldberg? Yeah, she's one of the few people on the planet that has an Oscar, Emmy, Tony, and Grammy award--not a traditional Hollywood beauty. Queen Latifah, Mo'Nique, and my all time favorite Nell Carter are all Oscar, Grammy, and Tony award winners.
What is it about those in the main? They are really struggling with the success of Gabby and Mo'Nique. To say Oprah, who had the exact same thing said about her chances of success, was lying to Gabby just demonstrates your stupidity and painful inability to see the irony in your own words.
For the record Gabby is signed to do a series for Showtime and already has another movie in the works. Congratulations Gabby!!
What's up with you Howard? I didn't know you were still on the air...
