LMAO!

Ya’ll so wrong!

All they needed to do is put Baby Vaseline on them like that girl in “Belly”…

Wow, yall r crazy

Oh yeah? So where does technological advancement come in place?

I saw this blind item on another site and the answer is MTV. It was w/ regards to their series, ‘The Real World,’ which is why this upcoming season is gonna be predominately black. Holla!

It’s probably Bravo.

Make up?

So then does that mean they have to get rid of Flav? He’s about the “Too Blackest” man on TV anyway.

HOW THE HELL THE CAMERA KEEP PICKING UP WESLEY SNIPES AND TAYE DIGGS BLACK AZZES???

Plus that’s an ugly ass cake.

Flav is on the dark side. He’s givin my Blackberry a run for it’s money.

i was about to say BET

He’s so damn scary…

I wouldn’t be so quick to say MTV. THe reality “clogged” clue makes me think female or fashion such as project runway and Queer eye which seem like more of a fit than Real World who had the really really dark guy from Las Vegas, Alton. I would go with Bravo!

CHECK OUT TMZ FOR A PICTURE OF KELLY ROWLANDS HAIRY PITS!!! SH*T IS DISGUSTING!!!!

It’s “Rock of Love 2″.

A new spin on celebrity Gossip:

http://www.celebpsychic.blogspot.com

Can’t be flavor of love. Flavor is to black for them to say that.

My guess was MTV or BET. You know black people are colorist against other black people. Light you’re alright, Brown stick around, Black step back.

POPPYCOCK! i see flav’s ugly ass just fine! and he’s blacker than midnight

1st

I bet the folks at VH1 are wiping the sweat from their foreheads and thinking “I’m glad they can’t say it’s us!”

I was thinking Bravo, but MTV is a good guess too.

Both their prime time slots are occupied by reality shows.

If it is MTV, then they forgot something… they don’t cast “too black WOMEN.” The men from Real World can be as black as they want, like Alton and Tyree (sp). But when it comes to the sistas, they go to Coral, Irulan, and Arissa. Still it is all too sad!

Oh, and I almost died at this:

“i was about to say BET”

Someone is a fool for that one. lol

Octavia, unfortunately you are very right.

BET – that’s why they have rosci’s ghetto yello azz

Everytime I turn around there goes that slave mentality of networks among others that are always trying to turn people of color against each other. I am not dark, but I consider myself as black as Flav or any other dark complexion person of color. GET OVER COLOR. Who cares about the color of my people. Let it go we have bigger fish to fry. All my kids are of a different color with ONE father & frankly my dear I don’t give a d#mn. Get OVER IT MY PEOPLE OF COLOR PLEASE.Pretty is pretty, cute is cute & ugly is ugly & color has nothing to do with it. Open your eyes.

JROCK (A.K.A DROCK’S N THEM MAMA)> That baby is adorable just looking at your gravatar makes me happy! NOW I WANT A BABY LOL!!!

so this is why we never see us on the nightly news or any corporated media outlet. the camera lens isn’t of any quality with all this technology. i don’t get it. the lens must pick up the sweeter juice, ya mean

It better not be BET but if it is I wouldn’t be surprised one bit

flavs got a show still. man listen less of the smut shows and more attention to the family ones. Who’s House “Runs House,” dats what. ya mean

@ Octavia-That’s why I don’t really watch Real World no more, the black guys are usually dark but a little preppy, but them girls are almost always biracial, I want some real black ppl on there some times…

All the white people at my job love Flavor of Love. That is all they want to talk about and when I love New York was on they loved that to. We always hear about this or that being to black, but in reality white people love it.

Has any one else experienced that? Their white friends being obsessed with ‘black’ shows.

Ms. Lovely

MS. LOVELY

YES! White people have always loved a good minstrel show

BET IT WAS BET!

They love the yella folk on BET.. that’s no secret.

@ Octavia-That’s why I don’t really watch Real World no more, the black guys are usually dark but a little preppy, but them girls are almost always biracial, I want some real black ppl on there some times…

@ Delta Diva: Agreed! When people like Teck (from Hawaii) and Alton (Las Vegas) and strictly bi-racial girls are the only representations of black people, something is wrong. Our people are too diverse for that one-sided “safe negro” representation. I’m almost happier if they just don’t cast black housemates at all. It beats type-casting just to meet the quota.

@tj

LOL, a good minstrel show.

Ms. Lovely

it could be any of the cables channels they all make black people look like no morals FOOLS

sorry it’s not bravo – all the blacks that come through on those shows have been honorable and well liked and received – and they come in all shades .. it HAS to be bet or mtv

“A minstrel was a medieval European bard who performed songs whose lyrics told stories about distant places or about historical events.”

So you are saying that those shows are truth? Y’all are DUMB!!!

Fake stereotypical shows sell… The Game (they got a typical white ditzy blonde), Girlfriends (they got the ghetto, career oriented and lost), Rock of Love (they got big boobed/big haired groupies), Flava of Love (ghetto crazy broads)… get over it!! Who give a care what white folk watch, who give a care what black folk watch, who give a care what Latinos and Asians and Middle Easterns, etc. watch… again… Y’ALL ARE DUMB!!!

I thought that policy was common practice for videos, BET, black movies, black magazines, etc…. It’s sad that dark skin women are more likely to be cast in a predominately white movie or television show than a black production.

Grace, that is so interesting. I’ve also noticed that. When it comes to white productions (classier than the Real World), they embrace straight from Africa black people or the neo-soul blacks… ya know, the black girls that NEVER rock a perm or weave. Then, when it comes to black productions, everyone looks damn near latino.

What happened to the majority of us in the middle? Particularly the cute, smart, round the way black girls??? The media and Hollywood are all about preppy mulattos, earthy soul sistas, and ghetto hoochies, when in reality most black women don’t fit in those groups. The few regular black girls out there, like Taraji P. Henson, Gabrielle Union, Angela Basset, Nia Long, and Lauren London don’t get enough attention.

BET all the way…Vh1 ain’t tryna lose their kash kows….

and whoever made the “minstrel” point is 100% off the mark…Kool out Mami

Octavia: “The media and Hollywood are all about preppy mulattos, earthy soul sistas, and ghetto hoochies, when in reality most black women don’t fit in those groups.”

SO TRUE!

It’s got to be Fox they are very racist and I can just imagine them saying something like your too dark we can’t see you….Ignorance…

MTV comes to mind.

VH1 is the only network giving black people their own shows.

threw*

Even Flav’s palms are dark! I’ve never seen that before.

It’s true that darker skin tones are harder to pick up on camera. Because film cameras are made FOR white skin!!!!! This is a little known fact, that’s why darker people look so “down” on t.v…I only know this because I am a film student!

@ TJ

YES! White people have always loved a good minstrel show

reply: CHUCHHHHH!!!! trust, they are not laughing with us….it’s at us…don’t get confused because they want to discuss shows like Flava of Love and I Love New York….

@Dumb – sometimes words have more than one meaning – you just seriously embarrassed yourself.

@Crap Talker – You do know that Flav isn’t actually in blackface – that’s just how he looks. LOL. You also do realize that he’s a member of Public Enemy. He’s just being himself – you only find it offensive because he’s dark – seems like you should go back to the real days of blackface and get a little perspective.

blind item? i wish i was blind that way i would not have to see Flav’s mug!!!!

Got-b-dayum he is one uglay person!!!

Really, I am so serious about THING 1 winning, if you want to call it winning. Her mom has leaked the information. And since I can’t stand her moma and hope she get in trouble for breeching the contract.

Yep..glad to see my peeps are paying attention. I have noticed the grave disparity between dark skinned women and men on television FOREVER. I mean really think about it. We can name numerous dark skinned brothers who are actors, comedians, sports figures etc. and they are made into sex symbols BUT where are all the dark skinned females? This is the reason that some stupid lost Black men feel ok putting down darker skinned black women. They were raised by TV!

SEEEE what I am saying its that Hollywood BS again as usual…When are they going to realize that Dark Skin is Beautiful also…This is why Africans are bleeching their skin lighter see what we teach people

And BTW saying you are cute for a Dark Skin girl is NOT a compliment

My vote goes to those queens over at Bravo.

As far as I’m concerned, Fox and Judge Judy did us a favor, cause I get sick and tired of seeing the ignorant ghetto folk on television. Let these fools go to a real court to settle their cases instead.

If white guys like black women so much, why don’t they put them on tv?

They like Black Light skin Women…That was the whole point of the insert…pay attention

“If white guys like black women so much, why don’t they put them on tv?”

The blind item said they don’t want anyone darkskinned PERIOD.. This wasn’t about black women!! They don’t want the black man’s blue black ass on tv either..

Beside – however he feels about us, we KNOW he can’t stand black men!! Atleast he’ll hire us to work along side him!! He’s content seeing the black man pick up cans for a living!!

You ignorant dumb house coon black bastard!! Learn to read.. Stop making all of us look bad!!

^^^ Lmao…. You guys kill me with those lil e-arguments…

:O whoa

LMFAO.. thats wrong but the joint is funny.. “darker skin is harder to pick up on camera” LMAO.. yo, what is this world coming to. LOL.. smh..

This nugman person doesn’t seem to really want to know the answer to that question…trying to be sarcastic, but I can still answer him/her anyway.

Nug, if you take a look at Hollyweird what do you see? Emaciated collagen lipped weave wearing pale women and short overweight scruffy rosy cheeked men. Do you really think this is what all people think is attractive? OF COURSE NOT, but because there is a small secluded segment of our population that runs hollywood it is THEIR standards that are going to be portrayed on the big and small screen. That segment is made up overwhelmingly of gay men and jewish men.

Octavia…late as hell, but I HAD to co-sign. SJP is the star of my all time fav show, but she looks like the wicked witch of the east. Gah!

WOW! Clearly racist……the industry is way to technologically advanced to use that b’ish as an excuse.

Thank you! That’s all there is too it!

I dunno why I kept staring at Flava’s cake with one eye closed with my head tilted to the side. Then, it suddenly dawned on me, it looks like a casket cake!

Co-sign on SJP lookin like a witch.

Ugly wart and all!

@ memchee and nahnah

smh.. quick to call something racist just cause its coming from the “white man” right? total hypocrites don’t black people put dark skinned people down too, don’t yall say yall don’t like dark skinned males/females.. smh.. there is no difference yall are just as wrong too. honestly i don’t find this comment offensive at all.

And the classic Sambo of the century award goes to….

I think its Bravo too….I haven’t see one Black person in ages on there…lol

bravo had being bobby brown

Funny when I do videotaping for jobs and there is a very dark skinned person. I use a new invention called A LIGHT! And I don’t film any black person in front of a white background as it’s hard for the camera to see them (with or without a light). Somebody tell them to come up with a better reason.

Flav is darkskin so they only have enough light to cover him.. wow this pic is just scary

OK why did they do his hair like that? that was uncalled for!

What the hell is on his lap? Is that a coffin…heart shaped coffin? WTF.

Damn they really got him looking like Buckwheat lol

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHH AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH CATCH MY BREATH AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH

It’s just that their too cheap to find a good gaffer (the person who does the lights. If you light a scene for the darkest person on set everyone looks better. Why do you think white women always look flawless when they are on Oprah?? Because the set is lit for Oprah who is 99% of the time darker than her guests.

needs to start getting real and put some overweight people. I have seen an overweight girl sine The Real World season 1, when it was actually real…or people with more issues like the gay guy who died of AIDS (R.I.P) so that they care bring some awareness to these ignorant teens out there watching the shows.

excuse me, havent* sen an overweight girl

She is gorgeous. I am kind of thinking That I saw her before on a celebrity and millioniare dating site like wealthysoulmate..com. or something. Whatever, this is not my thing. Good luck with your love.

All of you on the board is not getting it. its ok for a black man to be dark but not a woman dark skinned men been on t.v all through the 80,s and 90,s but not a black woman why i don’t know is their a place for the dark skinned woman on the earth and being brown is not dark skinned being brown is brown enough to go light. now you wonder why people bleach their skin light all the light skinned r&b singers on t.v don’t get credit from me and a lot of blacks their only on t.v because their light they call it the light skinned beauty pass so if the dark skin woman can’t be on t.v only the dark woman should get some kind of reprarations for this this has been going on for decades they owe dark skinned people not light skinned because light skin has a free ride and they don’t want to admit this. when this issue comes up they pretend it does not exist but we will see on judgement day witch color is the best and the light skinned think they are not black they think they are better then the dark skinned if they think this why are they sreaming reprarations it should only be giving to the people that is dark closer to african ancestors now tell me this is not fair then i will tell you thats not fair.
