Stacey Dash Thinks It’s Ok For A White Man To Play Michael Jackson

Oh, you thought she was done??? Joke’s on you! Stacey Dash is just getting campaign of cockamamie f**ks#!t warmed up.

After news broke that Joseph Fiennes had been cast to play The King Of Pop a collective outrage ensued. Surely no one could possibly think that this was appropriate…enter Fox News’ favorite faux-negro via her janky lil blog.

People are up in arms over the selection of Joseph Fiennes to play Michael Jackson in an upcoming half hour comedy about a slice of Jackson’s life, a road trip he took with Elizabeth Taylor and Marlon Brando after 9/11. People are complaining, since there are already too few roles for blacks. When a major biopic about a black man is made, why give the role to a white man? (A Brit at that?)

“That’s like getting Angela Bassett to play Sophia Loren,” Wendy Williams said on her talk show. “You just don’t do that! With the roles so few and far between for a lot of black actors, I feel like even if they couldn’t get a name they could’ve got somebody that we don’t know.”

But I say, BRAVO! I’m sick and tired of being told “Sorry, Stacey, this is a Caucasian-only role.” Counterintuitively, this decision by Hollywood — which looks like a diss to blacks — is actually what we’ve been saying all along: roles should NOT be based on color.

Don’t believe me? What’s the hottest ticket on Broadway right now? Hamilton, the musical by Lin-Manuel Miranda based on the biography written on Alexander Hamilton’s life. The show, which pre-sold $10 Million worth of tickets, “uses mostly actors of color to play ‘old, dead white men.’” It’s a hip hop, rap battle version of American history… Thomas Jefferson is black. Alexander Hamilton is Puerto Rican. LOVE it.

I don’t care about the race of the actors portraying historical figures and I can’t wait to see Joseph’s portrayal of Jackson… It’ll be amazing as long as he plays him truthfully and authentically.

Someone needs to put something long and thick in her throat so she can’t talk anymore.
