Quote of the Day: Nia Long to Beyonce “Stay in Your Lane”
Posted by Bossip Staff
Nia Long goes on the record to say what we’ve been saying about your girl Bey this whole time:
“I didn’t see ‘Obsessed,’ so I can’t comment, but it’s just not about how talented you are anymore. It’s about, ‘How much box-office revenue will this person generate?’ When you see certain people – we won’t name names – they just don’t have the skill, and no one in their team has said, ‘You need acting classes.”
Pretty much what Nia is saying here is for little Bey to keep her ass on the stage with her gyrating booty-popping and lace- front swinging and stay OFF the big screen. Great point, Nia. SMH

damn
I’m not mad @ Nia!
Well..
Nia Long is beautiful.
CO-SIGN!!!!!!!
Nia is speaking the truth…
So glad Nia said that. Bey needs to stick to what she does best, singing and shaking.
Nia is not a great actress so may be she needs acting cl*****es.
Bey has enough clout to shut Nia down completely in Hollywood!!
P.S. She’s beautiful! I also like Bey too…as a singer
And Bossip you guys are messy you only posted half the interview because she said more than it..
Second?
This is nothing new to me. U see alot of hard working acter/acteress saying this about alot of rappers and singers. Just b/c you have alot of money and are popular doesn’t mean u can skip acting cl*****es. Samual L. Jackson said this same thing to alot of these rappers/what-to-be-acters.
I AM ENJOYING ALL THE EMAILS
KEEP THEM FLOWING
Nia Long must of thought she had a chance at the role in “Obsessed.” LOL.
“How much box-office revenue will this person generate?”-Nia Long
That says it all…
Never heard this magazine…is it a gay mag? I mean it is called ” PRIDE”.
LOL. Here this ***** go…
black on black hate. typical!
HAter…What role has Nia done that was so great? “BOyz in tha Hood Part 2″ She hasn’t done enough to showcase her own skills and talks about BEy lIke its all good.
B is much better at singing thats for sure. but she is a hard worker im sure she could get the acting down also with a little help. Nia probably just want some rolls she hasnt been in much lately
LADIES PLEASE DONT RESPOND AS I AM NOT INTERESTED IN WHAT YOU OFFER
The truth hurts…
She probably said that because Beyonce is in the limelight and stealing all of the good roles. I agree with Nia because it’s not fair. Nia is a fabulous actress and Beyonce is not. I like Beyonce because she tries so hard to improve, but she should stick to singing.
Same whine, different verbalist.
Nia, it happens. Like someone said above, Sam said this a while back, now the checks have stopped flowing your way, and you want to pounce. Fall back and re-direct your energy, sweetheart. We all have to reinvent ourselves sometimes.
@ The Butcher
“Bey has enough clout to shut Nia down completely in Hollywood!!”
Please. U ppl give Beyonce way too much credit.Talking about she has power, she is a legend, she is an icon. PPl really need to quit.She is justa product of good marketing nothing else. I live in the caribbean and my grandmother was watching the BET Awards, JUST CUS THEY SAID IT WAS A TRIBUTE TO MICHAEL, and when Beyonce came out made a comment about how that child rubs her the wrong way. And dont tell me my grandmother is jealous of her.
THANK YOU NIA, WHAT PREACH, THAT IS WHAT I AM SAYING, AND PEOPLE NEED TO KEEP IT 100 FAN OR NOT, SOME MFs CANNOT ACT BUT PEOPLE KEEP GIVING THEM ROLES AND FOR WHAT, I AM NOT SPENDING MY HARD EARNING MONEY ON B.S.
Nia not lying Beyzilla can’t act (or sing) to save her life.
God has given us all gifts, some gifts are strong than the other there is nothing wrong with trying it out. If you look in the mirror and know you are gifted in acting then do what is necessary to make that gift stronger, but if not then stick with what gift God has given you.

….AND????….
Yo ol jealous ***** Grannie.
I haven’t seen Obsessed either…
She’s right but you can’t blame the singers and rappers. When as we, as african-americans, going to realize we have to start doing things for ourselves. With all the wealth that many african-americans have, why don’t we own any studios and have more control over projects in hollywood to make a change. On the flip side african-americans have to support each other.
Lindi, best comment of the day, tell your grandmother I agree. No hate, Beyonce has star power but she cannot act period and if people would stop idol worshipping they would see that and be okay with it.
Nia Long is known for Love Jones. Love Jones = one of the best romantic movies EVER!
THANK YOU NIA! Beyonce needs to stick with the “sex sells” image. B/c she cannot act for *****! And her singing ain’t that great either.
Hey MIJDC ♥♥♥
Nia is right but that was kind of rude but at least she spoke her mind.
I LOVE me some Nia Long!!!
Lord have mercy on me… SMH
She’s intelligent, has a pleasant demeanor, well spoken, has a great personality, absolutely gorgeous…
Yes, in “Dreamgirls” Beyawnce’s acting was SOO BAD it was a distraction to me when I was watching the movie and that is a great example of what Nia Long said = “‘it’s just not about how talented you are anymore. It’s about, ‘How much box-office revenue will this person generate?’”
Beyonce is a terrible actress. Obsessed would have been much better if Taraji or Gabriel or Nia played in it. Just look beack at all Bey’s movie roles, besides one of the Austin Power movies, everything else flopped. Dream Girls, everyone was for Jennifer which they should have been because she stole the show. Point blank, she can’t act.
It must be frustrating to feel so versed in your craft only to have someone much younger and more attractive, who’s not even initially recognized as an actor, to take your light. But, its called “life”. Get over it.
@BE
Hey, what’s up?
Nia is very underrated…she is knock down gorgeous, stunning and cl*****y and has the right to voice her feelings. Lots of actors feel this way. She’s right. Bey is greedy and wants to vaccuum up everything possible but her success is guaranteed just as her failure is guaranteed because she sold her soul. Big up to Nia Long.
I’m so glad that someone finally said what I’ve been discussing with my friends for months — why are all these singers/rappers getting parts while trained actors are struggling to find work?
Say it, Nia, say it. I found more of the interview online. Pride — which I’ve never heard of before — is a magazine for women of color in the U.K. I’ll have to check it out:
She also goes on to say, “If you’re a singer not an actress, you should sing. If you’re a rapper, you should rap,” “If you take time to develop your craft, God bless you. Jamie Foxx is an example of both [actor and singer].”
She then adds “If you were able to take all the Black actresses and the choices we’ve made collectively, it’s a pure reflection of what you see on film. People need to work. But the content? The opportunities for Black actresses are more widespread today, but the quality has suffered.”
L thomas cuz we support b.s. all day, have you read the ish in here. People get what they ask for, Spike Lee is a genius but you have to read and know more then 5th grade history to know why he makes the films that he does. I ask this question to people in here, when you see a Spike Lee movie, does it make you think, contemplate your role in society, our history etc? Now ask yourself this when you see a Tyler Perry movie does it make you think, contemplate your role in society, our history, our struggle. I watch both but I know the difference. I cannot say the same for the average black person, and I am just speaking the truth.
I completely agree with Nia. What happened to just being an actress or a singer. Even the models complained about this a few months back.
Fall back and re-direct your energy, sweetheart. We all have to reinvent ourselves sometimes.
____________________________________________________
Will Beyonce try Boxing with Layla Ali next? Thats a reinvention that’s long over do!
Beyonce SUCKS and she and Mariah are the LAUGHING STOCKS of hollywood. Trust no “non-black” movie will cast Beyonce no matter how much box-office power she has.
She will NEVER be in a Benjam Button like Taraji, cause white movie directors understand that a good movie, good script, and good acting is what generate good box office numbers.
Good Morning…

last time i checked Obessed did pretty damn good at the box office
On a sidenote, I sincerely hope that Nia and Sanaa are dating. LOL.
That would be the best couple in Hollywood.
AS A GAY MAN I CAN SAY WITH MERIT BEYONCE IS TERRIBLE IN MOVIES
I WENT ON A MAN DATE TO SEE OBSESSED AND SHE RUINED MY DATE
I PREFER OLDER MALES
MORNING GUYS
Hatred at its finest…This w***** is mad cause Beyonce is takin over Hollywood and takin all the gigs Nia would have had a shot at..Another case of black women hating each other..Stop hating
MIJDC – I’m fine mister, trying to hide from my work today..lol
Hey Sydney
Are we still meeting at Mall of Louisiana for “lunch?”
I love Nia long, a true beauty. She has been acting for YEARS, and with hollywood still strugling to use black actors and Terrible singers taking black roles in black movies she maybe needs to open an Acting School for Celeberities.
Aside from JHud, Queen Latifah, Alicia Keys, Tyrese, Mos Def, Will Smith and few others. Everybody else need to ‘STAY IN THEIR LANES’. ‘Cause acting is not for them.
Also, why don’t Beyonce mother or sister tell her how bad her acting is? I feel bad for famous people cause they rarely hear the truth from peole pimping them, I mean from people who love them.
bey sucked in that movie…..nuff said
Tyler Perry’s future agenda:
Plot: Young black woman is “done wrong” by young black man but finds “redemption” through religion, hard work and the failure of said young black man.
Cast:
Beyonce as “Keisha”
Usher as “Tyrone”
Patti LaBelle as “Big Mama”
Tyler Perry as “Auntie Madea”
Nia Long as “Tyrone’s Mistress”
@ the_one:
I completely agree with your comments.
ROFLMAO!!
why don’t we own any studios and have more control over projects in hollywood to make a change.
___________________________________________________
Tyler Perry owns his own studio. But look at the coonery ***** he puts out. The Browns and House of Payne. And you say we need to support that mess?
There are some out there who should just find comfort and contentment in their god-given talent and call it a day. Unfortunately, its not like that.
No one in this world was more embarr*****ed than I was watching Janet Jackson in Poetic Justice – it was one of the worst performances I’ve seen to date. But, it certainly didn’t take away from her talent as a musician – though I’ve never fully appreciated her vocal abilities, I do feel that overall, she’s an excellent entertainer.
Ms. Long needs to realize its the way of the world. We tend to hold celebs to such a high status, we refuse to believe that there isn’t anything they can’t succeed at.
Its Hollywood. Its their job to favor the younger and more beautiful women. Its simply what they do.
I feel Nia 100 percent!! Some of these singers and rappers need to stick to what they know. Beyonce’s acting skills were highly suspect in Cadillac Records and Obsessed. Quality actors/actresses are going to be looked over all the time if they aren’t going to sell box office tickets. To give Beyonce her credit, she is a entertainment cash cow that will possibly be as big as MJ (RIP) but she gotta do better behind that Silver Screen!!
Not only does Bey need acting cl*****es, she should definitely take some speech cl*****es.
bey in my opinion ** ITS NOT HATING **
i honeslty dont think that beyonce is a great singer
and she is definately not an actress. beyonce movies just like her songs, dont last long, its just for the moment “how long did obsessed last in the theater, that one weekend, i haven’t heard a word about it … in any event i am with nia – nia is far more a better actress than beyonce.
Just because Obessed did good numbers. Doesnt mean the acting was good. It’s called Marketing. They market her very well, which peeks interest and people pay to see what it’s all about. Doesnt mean u walk out of the theather like WOW she did great!
@JB
“Tyler Perry owns his own studio. But look at the coonery ***** he puts out. The Browns and House of Payne. And you say we need to support that mess?”
__________________________________________________________________
LOL. I thought Will Smith and Jada Pinket were starting their own production company too.
Good morning Jade, BE et al
I’m so happy that Nia spoke her mind. It’s getting to be ridiculous. I didn’t bother to see Obsessed, but it does appear that Beyonce has developed a monopoly on film roles, and she is in dire need of acting cl*****es.
If the rumor circulating a while ago that she may play Angela Davis is true, there needs to be a movement to shut that down. It’s not a case of a black woman “hating” (despise that word) on another — Nia is sharing a truth that I’m sure many other black actresses are discussing behind closed doors.
I like Beyonce, but it bothers me that she thinks she deserves an Oscar before Angela B*****ett…Beyonce is a beautiful and talented singer, but after all these years in the industry, she’s only a mediocre actor, so I don’t understand why she’s always in magazines campaigning for the Oscar.
last time i checked Obessed did pretty damn good at the box office
So did Borat. But does that mean it is Oscar worthy?
aslo have you ever hear her *beyonce* talking
her voice is more annyoing talking than singing
If Nia makes a sequel to “Love Jones,” I would be first in line to buy a ticket. It’s still one of my favorites.
I agree, Bey should stay in her lane. BUT Nia isn’t the greatest actress either. She’s been in many films and I have yet to see her do some REAL acting.
@jcstans
Ughhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! take that nasty pic down…..
LOL. I thought Will Smith and Jada Pinket were starting their own production company too.
_________________________________________________
I think that they are starting a school based on Scientology.
Borat was an awesome movie…Had some very HOMO moments but it was still funny..Wants 2 go see Bruno..has anyone saw that???
WELL THE WAY I FEEL ABOUT IT IS THAT IT IS OPEN SEASON FOR ANYONE WILLING. IF FOLKS ARE WILLIN TO SHELL OUT THE BUCKS TO SEE BEY THEN SO BE IT….LET HER ACT. JUST DON’T GO GIVING HER AN OSCAR JUST BECAUSE SHE CAN SING. SHE CAN’T ACT.
@Sydney,
I’m so glad that someone finally said what I’ve been discussing with my friends for months — why are all these singers/rappers getting parts while trained actors are struggling to find work?
***I agree, in addition, Bey needs some speech cl*****es too.***
@Jade Silver
Good Morning
Nah im ridin’ with beyonce on this one. Nia is fine as ***** and a really good actress but when you need to put *****es in seats to recoup your investment beyonce is the bigger star. My girl made me go see that last movie and grated, beyonce aint the best actress in the world, but that theatre was full.
I have a feeling Nia feels that these singers are taking legitimate parts that should go to her, gabriel, sanna (and her alien ***** thumbs) or other black actresses who’ve spent years honing their craft, but thats just not the real world.
love 6am
Clearly this is a case of a hater..
there are plenty of singers that act/actors that sing.
Nia stop hatin on B.
granted and sanaa, sorry
She probably auditioned for “Obsessed” and got played.
MAN and I have a Indy-produced movie but we havent found a studio to sign on for distribution rights.
WTF?! DID ANYBODY ACTUALLY READ THE ARTICLE? NOT ONCE DID NIA LONG SAY BEYONCE NEEDS TO STAY IN HER LANE. THEY ASKED HER ABOUT BEYONCE’S PERFORMANCE IN OBSESSED AND SHE SAID SHE DIDNT SEE SO SHE CANT COMMENT. I DEF AGREE THAT SHE’S NOT THE BEST ACTRESS IN THE BUSINESS BUT DONT HATE ON YOUR OWN RACE CUZ YOU CANT GET WORK.
STEP YOUR ACTING GAME UP AND THEY MIGHT START CALLING U FOR ROLES
the girl nailed it. it’s not talent anymore just sales. same applies to music.
She’s drinking a little Haterade but she’s still fine.
This dude is grillin the ***** out of Sotomayor right now.
DAMN. I wish she would just say
“White men are stupid and racist and YES, a Latina woman would make a better decision.”
I think people go to hard on Tyler Perry. Granted the TV shows may be a bit much to swallow, but the plays and movies usually have a good message in them.
For all of you saying that nia long is hating is retarded! She just spoke the truth! And the truth is bey can’t act! And to be honest nia would of did a far way better job than bey in obsessed. I’ve seen the movie and bey didnt do that role any justice! And the movie overall was not good!
P.s.Im a fan of bey but i recognize a hater and Nia isn’t one!
@ Legend
No do not waste your money. I saw it last night. That mess was just nasty.
As far as Beyonce acting, don’t all singers want to be actors, and all actors want to be singers/rappers?
preach NIA preach.. beyaki and her thunder needs to stick to booty shaking coz that is what she does best.. i am tired of her messing up good movies..when it come to acting, beyaki is beyond wack end of!!!!!!!

@Lil Sanjor
“***I agree, in addition, Bey needs some speech cl*****es too.***”
Yes, how can she act when she can’t speak properly?
And I strongly disagree that there’s only room for Beyonce — when you look at white actresses, there’s room for pop princesses, such as Jessica Simpson, to do their trivial, forgettable films, and real, meaty roles for more seasoned actresses, such as Meryl Streep and Kate Winslet, in addition to indie roles that pull lower box office revenues but offer substantive roles.
We need that kind of cinematic spectrum for black movie-goers, and we need to support quality films that do make it to the big screen.
Nia is right — Quality HAS suffered.
@JB
Nasty??? ..did it have any funny parts??
@L
“LOL Where are you watching Sotomayor @??”
____________________________________________________________
On CNN. I’m bout to leave tho. That’s all they are asking her about. It’s really one dude asking the SAME question 99 different ways.
SMH
Beyonce is WHACK!
Go Nia!!!
there is some validity behind those words but people are always going to choose money and a certain look over reality and talent especially in that industry
Contrary to what people think, Nia has done quite well for herself financially. She is only speaking the truth and the proof is in the pudding. Only a few singers/rappers have been able to pull it off being great at their craft and pretty good at acting. LL, MosDef, Jill Scott to name a few.
To keep it real, it is taking roles from actors/actresses that are skilled at their craft. Part of the Beyonce backlash going on right now is that she is over-exposed. She’s made a ton of money and will continue making dough and staying “laced” as long as she is married to Jay. So why not take time off, have a couple of kids, pour yourself into acting cl*****es, then reappear after a few years as an actress if she wants to be taken seriously? She will get thrown roles because of her name, her star power and Jay. She can always sing, that ain’t going no where but here window of doing her shows the way she has is slowly closing with age. We’ve all seen Janet go through it with the ballooning weight and it getting harder for her to get up for her shows. *****ody wants to see Beyonce like Janet was on her last tour.
Take a break. Have some chil-run’, put in the work taking acting cl*****es then reinvent yourself as an actress. Then maybe she won’t get anybody saying what Nia and Samuel L. have said….
@Sydney – If the rumor circulating a while ago that she may play Angela Davis is true, there needs to be a movement to shut that down. It’s not a case of a black woman “hating” (despise that word) on another — Nia is sharing a truth that I’m sure many other black actresses are discussing behind closed doors.

Nia is mad her roles have been reduced 2 playing in Big mommas house and sayin maybe 10 lines in the movie…Shes a hater get over it..I dont remember the last good movie she did
@Man
“NO what’s up to:
Sydney… not speaking to you after your unwarranted and vicious attack on my boo yesterday. LOL.”
Your boo can’t sing, nor should she have a role in The Wiz (play a video of Stephanie Mills singing “Home” to understand why).
So there. If the truth hurts, say ouch.
As for Tyler Perry, I’ve watched thats how House of Pain many times and I really don’t think it’s funny. I’m all for seeing my people on tv but it’s dry. Does anyone really like that show?
Hey Brooklyn
:
Black actresses = Hatin ***** black women
I agree with what Nia is saying. I mean it is already hard enough for black people to get roles in hollywood, and then you have these no acting people such as Beyonce coming in stealing all the roles because she can sell records. Dont get me wrong, I think Beyonce is a talented singer and performer, but I am not buying her as an actor. She just does not come across as genuine on the screen, I don’t see her characters when she acts, she comes across as Beyonce the performer which seems to be fake and forced.
@LIL SANJOR
“***I know, yesterday I thought they were just going to take her outside and lynch her, by the way, are you from florida, if so which part?***”

thanks nia for telling the truth.did ya’ll saw obsessed?? beyonce is the worst actress ever.
I so agree with NIA!! she brought it on point.

Tsk Tsk Tsk …poor Nia ..so bitter …what’s the matter ..show’d up at a screen-test and they said “thanks but no thanks?” Last I checked, Nia ain’t won any awards for her acting EVER ..or anything else I can remember. Bey should stay in her lane, huh? Nia, you shouyld GET A LANE …you ain’t even driving!!!
Too bad a sister can’t uplift another sister …but I guess it’s dog-eat-dog ..and Nia is a weenie dog …Go Bey!
@JB
Nasty??? ..did it have any funny parts??
________________________________________________
The funny parts are few and far between. It was just too much gay stuff. THere are parts where you would think that he is about to get his ***** beat for real for doing some of the ***** he does.
So who is going to Cancun with me?
Why do people say someone is jealous if they say Beyonce can’t act? If someone tells me I’m not good at calculus or singing, I wouldn’t say they were jealous–I’d say they were telling the truth.
like i said, nia is a good actress, but beyonce puts *****es in seats.
love 6am
countless others like 303 would be considered hater…fair enough rite???
POW!! boyz N tha hood rite
Nia’s bitter because *****ody’s checking for her!
When’s the last time you seen her in a movie! Exactly! Back in old hollywood actors and actress’ had to do it all.. They sang, danced and acted!!
Nia step your game up.. Like someone said its all about who’s getting people out to the theaters!! Nia’s not! Sorry.. Bey’s new to acting.. Nia a pro and she still can’t get a damn job. What does that say about you Nia.. Next!!
@Man
“My boo CAN sing!!!!!!!!!! I am TRYING to overlook your jealous and hateful ways, but you are making it difficult!”
I guess I’m just a “hatin’ a** black woman.” Isn’t that one of the favorite phrases on here?

Lol, my hubby said the same thing. How can you mess up on something when its written down? I guess he needed bigger flash cards.
FINALLY…SOMEBODY WHO SPOKE THE TRUTH ABOUT BEYONCE’S “ACTING SKILLS”
LMAO!
POOR NIA, I HAVEN’T SEEN HER ON THE “BIG SCREEN” IN A WHILE.
Hey BE, SYD, Man
@NOPHACE THE GREAT
Point taken.
I think Nia’s comment can be applied to today’s entertainment industry, in general. Stars are being “manufactured” because they are marketable, not because they have talent. Her statement can be applied to white entertainers, as well. Look at Jessica Simpson, she can’t act. But, there are more parts available for white actresses, so the industry can accommodate her as well as Jodie Foster. Jodie doesn’t need to worry about Jessica getting any roles because that will never impact her personal opportunities. Jodie will ALWAYS have it made in hollywood, Jessica, not so much–even though she’s younger, has the popular looks, etc. I am disheartened at the shortage of opportunities for black actresses. And, I too, am also tired of seeing people try to do “everything” just to make extra dollars. I don’t like having “my” singer be my actress, fashion designer, cosmetics consultant, fragrance specialist (I don’t know what they’re called), etc. It’s ridiculous. I also get tired of seeing the same 2-5 faces on all of the magazine covers. It gets tired and played out. Unfortunately, I think the majority of the industry is about making money and only a small proportion really cares about finding/developing real and lasting talent.
Speaking of box-office revenue…when is the last time she dominated the charts with anything. She should have kept that one to herself.
When I see a legitimate black actress like Angela B*****et or Hale Berry start complainin then ill take notice but this broad isnt legitimate herself
[...] here to read the rest: Quote of the Day: Nia Long to Beyonce “Stay in Your Lane” VN:Fplease wait…Rating: 0.0/10 (0 votes cast) Share and [...]
Don’t just jump on Beyonce, this goes for all rappers. Even though their entire persona is acting, they should still stick to rapping.
@ $$ talks
Funny!
At the end of the day Beyonce is laughing her ***** all the way to the bank while this hatin heiffer gives interviews for local magazines. Get over it.
How can you make a comment like that…its a competitive world out here so STEP UP OF STEP OFF…take a hint from Beyonce Nia, go produce your own film then you to can star in it.

Yes, yes you are a hatin ***** black woman. Stephanie Mills’ singing ability, or lack thereof, has no effect on my boo’s abilities.
I don’t like this discussion…
She aint lying. I haven’t seen movies that I thought wqould be good just cause Bey is in it. Stick to singing and shaking your ***** boo.
I don’t see a Oscar in her predicition any time soon!
MORNING PEOPLE!
Anyhoo, Nia girl you love I loves ya, but why did you even mention her name? All you doing is giving this broad “airtime” and making yourself look like a hater (even tho a level minded person knows better). It is what it is. Just let them be.
ANYBODY LOOKING TO EXCHANGE A GOOD TIME FOR HAVING THEIR CAR NOTE PAID?
I’m out. Talk lata…
Hey I feel if you have something to say then say it, to most it might not be proper but who can tell you what proper really is… It the ones that don’t shut up, who gets the things out of life that they really want… I do think it is more about going after the fils industry in general, but when you are your won woman and your won man who care what other people think… If U feel the need to check something then check it *****… I am not hating on her…
@I am legend – damn you being extra hard on Nia
Nia is a very good actress just because you have not won an award does not mean you are not good.
Oh, if some people would get past the “hating” comments already. Damn, just because someone has an opinion opposite yours doesn’t mean anyone is hating. Sheesh, I wonder when that term will die. It’s getting really old. If you read the quote Sydney put up (hey girl!), you would see that Nia was saying, if you want to venture out into other avenues, GET TRAINING. What’s so hateful about that?
Moving on…I agree with Nia.
Sydney™
“like i said, nia is a good actress, but beyonce puts *****es in seats.”

We need that kind of cinematic spectrum for black movie-goers, and we need to support quality films that do make it to the big screen.
Nia is right — Quality HAS suffered.”
Part of the reason alot of black films are not being made or making the “indie film” circuit is because we go for the bootleg first.
To paraphrase MosDef (“Mathematics” – Black on Both Sides album), “it’s simply mathematics”. Films have to have a certain budget to be made. That money is “investment” money. Money that is put up, up front with the hopes that the box office returns will pay it back and also make a nice profit. With us “bootlegging”, studios are reluctant to put the next black film on the screen because of the poor box office numbers (r.o.i. – return on investment). Right now, Tyler Perry is the only black film maker that is able to keep his head above water against bootleggers because folks will go to the theater’s to see his movies. Right now on satellite/cable, there is a black indie film called “I’m Through with White Girls” about a brotha who likes indie rock, gothic novels and dates white girls. After some bad experiences with white girls, he is on a mission to get it right with the sistas. The movie is nicely written and produced but did not make the box office and was like one of those straight to video type of things.
Why is Nia being called a “hater” for stating the truth? Think about it — when you take the limited number of roles that are even made available to black actresses, and then you have a singer holding a monopoly, what opportunities are given to sistas who have actually been trained and have practiced their craft? There are people who live and breathe the art of acting, and that commitment comes through in their performances. Quality and substance should triumph over glitz.
Didn’t Bey say she wanted to win in every awards competition, including an Oscar AND a Tony? The sista needs to work on elocution first.
Oh, and although, Nia has not won an Oscar, she has won other awards and has appeared in highly acclaimed, indie films, such as “Boiler Room.”
It’s really funny how people call constructive criticism “hating”. I can’t see where Nia is hating on anybody. The movie roles Beyonce get are the ones she pays for. Cadillac Records and Obsessed. I don’t believe Obsessed did as well as people say because after that first weekend. There was nothing said about it. Beyonce can’t act. Trust me Hollywood loves Taraji right now. I just think she should look outside of Ice Cube for job opportunites. Love Jones was the ***** back in the day.
It high price slavery with a lot of luxury just to captivate the whole world in an ultimate state of bondage… Is following someone else’s path really in life an *****et or a liability… Now day people only want to be famous and it is creating a very unbalance since and image of life…

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Get it right, Nia ain’t the w*****. Beyonce is. And this dummy could not take over hollywood if it was for sale on e-bay. Beyonce is not an actress,Beyonce is not a singer. She is a marketing burlesque show robot. She needs to thank Idris’s fine black ***** for the success of the last movie, cause the ***** CAN’T ACT FOR *****.
Nia is beautiful (naturally) talented, and is loved by many. Beyonce can only hope that she looks as good as Nia when she gets to her age.
Beyonce needs to go back to school. A mind is a terible thing to waste. She also needs to take some singing lessons. Leave acting to the real actresses.
It ain’t hating if it’s the truth.
I agree with Nia, she’s definitely right on!
I think Nia Long is a good actress. Beyonce though, lol… She needs to stick to booty hopping.
@ Whoa…
“like i said, nia is a good actress, but beyonce puts *****es in seats.”

It’s so sad that this trend is taking away from the art that is telling the story. It always surprises me how they want to find the sexy starlet in any movie and promote it based on that and not the story itself. I love watching movies but of late I don’t even make the effort to go to a theatre unless it’s an animation. The rest I get on bootleg or until they get to movie magic.
OH, I ALMOST FOR GOT….GOOD MORNING BOSSIP COMMENTERS!
LOL!
I commend Bey for her versatility, however Nia is right on this one. Bey is a substandard actress for now. But as tenacious as she is, I bet she will improve with time.

Mos Def is actually a good actor and Luda acts better than Beyonce.
I think Nia gave props to those who are multi-talented, but if you can’t act..you should stick to singing.
Like kanye can’t sing..stick to rap and
Will Smith finally figured out he acts better then he raps.
@T.
“Right now on satellite/cable, there is a black indie film called “I’m Through with White Girls” about a brotha who likes indie rock, gothic novels and dates white girls.”
I heard about that film. I also saw another indie film recently, “Medicine for Melancholy,” about a black man and woman in San Francisco who have a one night stand that develops into more that was also very well done but probably won’t make it to the big screen (or if it has, I haven’t seen it in my area).
I’ve always had a crush on Nia Long. She is such a naturally beautiful girl.
Certified Hottie!!!
I’m sick of the ” black actresses in hollywood” comments.. Is Beyonce not black?!
Is she mad at Mos Def and TI and LL and Alicia etc.? NO.. WTF?! Why is Bey the focus? H A T E R
I can’t understand how anyone can say that Beyonce can act with a straight face. Her acting is TERRIBLE- just like her last album. Her name sells. People idolize her & will support whatever she does UNTIL the next big thing comes along. I agree, there are more talented people who deserve the acting jobs that she gets, but she gets them bc she is BEYONCE. Of course, I don’t think Halle Berry is that good of an actress either, but she is beautiful, and as long as she has that she will never fail.

*****ody is hating. Bey is just like those kids who used to eat their lunchbox then turn around and steal from the other kids. She can’t be good at everything. She should stick to what she knows best. The bus that is Beyonce is now too big for people to say ‘Hold up, what’s really going on here’. Just sad.
Why is it only black folks that run out and constantly complain about what they don’t have. If Beyonce is trying to better herself and if she wants to win a damn Oscar then God Bless her.
Stop begging the white man for roles in Hollywood and create your own damn roles. There are plenty of talented black playwrites, authors and script writers so if Nia is mad that she didn’t get a role that was given to Beyonce then find your own damn role.
Nia start your own production company and then you can be Queen Bee and you won’t have to hire any rappers/singers.

Hi *****catfun
She actualy did a good job in Obessed, for once a movie wasn’t bad, because of her bad acting! She has gotten a lot better, that movie wasn’t bad, but wasn’t as good as it could have been for many other reasons,like for one what you saw in the preview was the entire movie, that’s all that happened! It needeed a better plot, and script, but Bey, did the damn thing for once, because although I am a stan, I’m not one of her acting until now she, is showing promise. Nia long needs to fall back! Because hate’n never helped anybody, Her roles are not that great, and hasn’t had any work in a while, and wants to be upset at the person on top since she needs to pay those bills! She has had many years to make herself number one it’s not Bey’s fault if she didn’t! She should just be glad it’s another one of us making it instead of another race, cause it’s hard for black actors and actresses to get any roles other than a pimp, hoe, hustler, or white womens man!

Agreed!
And if you read carefully you’d realise that she was answering a question. She didn’t just decide to go off at Bey. She is talking in general. The journalists always mixing people’s words to get attention to their stories.
Since we are on this proverbial topic can I please have a few of you ni@@a *****es give me a constructive definition of what the term hating refers to?
I call Nia a hater simply because shes a black woman hating on another black woman..Before when black women couldnt get ANY roles they would be hatin and mad and complainin about it.. now that a black woman is getting roles regardless if she cant act or not she still hating..When will it all end..Be happy black women are getting roles and stop hating
@Man
“Yes, yes you are a hatin ***** black woman. Stephanie Mills’ singing ability, or lack thereof, has no effect on my boo’s abilities.”
I know you’re not saying that Stephanie Mills — THE Stephanie Mills — lacks singing abilities. SMH.
@6am
“like i said, nia is a good actress, but beyonce puts *****es in seats.”
So does “Emmitt” Tyler Perry, but you rail against him all the time — yet he packs theaters every time he puts out a movie (about every 3-6 months). So should we place him above Spike Lee?
WHERE ARE YOU GOING BOO?
I’m Bey’s biggest fan but Nia is actually dead on. Beyonce can’t act worth a da** and should definitely stick to entertaining.
I would say bless beyonce but I do feel that she is a very crooked and shady business woman so I can’t just give it to her like that…She is very talented in what she has been moded… I am sure a lot of people would try new things but it is also the film industry using her for box office hits, believe me she is going to learn about letting people use her for other agendas as soon as it is *****ociate with something very negative it never fails…
@Marquis De Sade…
First off…watch your nasty mouth…Second I can’t help you because 1 I am not a ni**a b**** and second I don’t use the word hating…It’s irrelevant in my dictionary.
CAN SOMEBODY PLEASE TELL ME WHEN NIA LONG ACTUALLY SAID ANYTHING ABOUT BEYONCE BESIDES THE FACT THAT SHE SAID SHE DIDNT SEE “OBSESSED” SO SHE CANT COMMENT. JUST BECAUSE SHE SAID THESE SINGERS/RAPPERS NEED TRAINING BEFORE THEY JUMP INTO ANOTHER LANE DOESNT MEAN SHE’S TALKING BOUT BEYONCE.
WHAT ABOUT J.LO, TYRESE, ELVIS, CHER, AALIYAH, AND PRINCE TO NAME A FEW?
The only problem I have with Beyonce entering into the acting arena, is that she only claims that she wants to win an Oscar. She never states that she wants to master the craft. These are two very different goals. I can see how a trained actress would be offended by Beyonce. The same way opera singers are offended by her attempt at the Ava Maria song. Stay in your lane Beyonce. Some things you should just sing at home, everything doesn’t have to be recorded.
Well I heard on MTO that Beyonce is trying to get a contract for Obsessed 2 but that this movie will have a Twist….She will be the cheater and she will have the stalker….
@WordtotheWise
“Oh, if some people would get past the “hating” comments already. Damn, just because someone has an opinion opposite yours doesn’t mean anyone is hating.”
Thank you! Can we not have an intelligent debate without affixing that trite term? It needs to be removed from our lexicon.
On another note, someone mentioned “Cadillac Records,” and it bothered me that there were real seasoned actors in that film, such as Jeffrey Wright (who is a phenomenal talent), who were completely overshadowed by the pub given to Beyonce (and I was told that her actual appearance in the film was pretty brief — I didn’t see the movie).
Plus MTO HAD THIS STORY YESTERDAY…..BOSSIP STEP YOUR GAME UP!!!
Preach!! I would feel the same way if I was a Black actress. Its hard for them to get roles. So for someone to come along who dosen’t have the skill, thats sucks! These ppl really studied to perfect their craft!
Diana D
Yeah I hear you she only wants to concur acting so that an Oscar can open more doors for her…It all seems very manipulating to me and for all the people that is saying black woman are hating can he Beyonce be a hater as well blocking careers for of already black working actress?
I agree with Nia. Let the singers sing and the actors act. While it’s a given that Beyonce has been in the game for like ever, a REAL singer uses her time hone and perfect her art of singing. Real singers do not look to acting as a side hustle. I don’t know why singers nowadays have to be these triple threats, singers/actors/designers, which leaves people who have spent YEARS getting their name out there, getting trampled because they aren’t that marketable. Shoot, I saw Obsessed and it was not even that great, I really watched it because Idris Elba, a fine male specimen. =)

well put..
Marquis – why you want to call people names and expect an answer..smh
Nia long acting skill arent that great what is she talking about and yes it is about how much money you can generate skills or no skills If Will Smith movies were not making any money he wouldnt have a job period.
First of all thanks for feeding these hating-***** trolls on here, if they can’t get their Bey or Kim K hate grub fest they’ll p***** out.
As for Nia,please you don’t even have a lane anymore and you played the same damn person in every movie you were in–just like Gabby and Sanaa. Bey creates her own opportunities step your game up.
The point Nia is making is this- someone in her camp need to put this bug in her ear. In other words, if your folk want you to be your best. She’s not saying DON’T ACT- she’s just saying do what you do, & do it BEST. It’s embarr*****ing to be bad at it. That’s like going on stage and singing out of key or being off beat in a dance. Practice & Perfect.
I love me some Nia Long and Samuel Jackson, I get their points about this, however, that is just like saying people cant have more than one job. Granted, some people may have 2 jobs, one job they have been doing for 15 years, the other only for 5 years, whats wrong with that? Samuel Jackson talked all that shyt about rappers need to rap instead of act, but his azz saw that regardless of that shyt he was talking he ended up having to make a movie with a rapper anyway (dont remember which movie). I think actors are jealous because consumers, producers and directors want singers and rappers in their movies, it generates MONEY, so Nia Long will prolly eat those words just like Samuel Jackson did if her azz want to continue eating in Hollywood because unless she refuses, she will no doubt have movie roles along side the likes of Beyonce and other singers and actors, Nia might as well get used to it or she needs to start singing.
Wow. I wonder how long it’s going to take for her to issue some sort of apology. The Knowles Clan has Hollywierd on lock right now…poor Nia will never work in that town again.

Beyonce took Cadillac Records just to make it her won, she did not care to have the other very famous orginal artistic there to set the best image of the movie…She played Etta James with out even talking to her much a real actress would have study this ladies life but no not Beyonce… This is another reason why she is not a good actress she cares nothing about the background and foundation of being a great actress in the film industry…
Well hell…I’m going to back everybody up that says that Beyonce can’t sing or act…she cant! Nia would have done it better. She stood up to Deebo in Friday!
You people are forgetting about the most important factor when it comes to Beyonce’s acting….SHE’S A PRODUCER NOW. Regardless of what Nia Long says, Bey will continue to do whatever the ***** she wants to do, because she has the money to do it. If all the writers in Hollywood stopped offering Beyonce roles, Beyonce could hire writers, and pay for the ***** herself. So let’s all move on. Beyonce can’t act, but she’s rich and famous.
What I don’t understand is why Beyonce even came up in a Nia Long interview. I swear, EVERYBODY is sucking on Bey’s tit. I was actually excited about Nia being on a magazine cover, because it wasn’t Beyonce. But lo and behold, Nia has to talk about Beyonce. GIVE ME A BREAK!
Does anybody whine more than black actresses?
White hollywood won’t even hire Beyonce anymore since she sucked so bad in Austin Powers. She only pimps black hollywood which is not hard, black hollywood sucks!!!
I see why Will Smith will not do “Black Movies”, they are the worst!!
Top black actresses right now are Angela B*****et(always), JHud, Alfre Woodard, Viola Davis and Taraji!! I can’t think of any other good black actresses…(add to the list if you like)
i would paid to see Nia on the Big Screen. I saw the movie and it was awful!!!! Bey did terrible every word she said made me want to smack her! i couldn’t stand it, and i got a good bootleg, thats $5 down the drain!
@Jay the Real One
Yes, Beyonce whines about sweat in her butt. Pick ur poison
@ Sydney…

—————————————————
Even in Obsessed, Idris and the other lady (forgot her name) seemed like they weren’t even in the movie because it was all about Beyonce.
I crack up at how people think the Knowles clan is going to make people bow down to them. These must be her flunkies that work for her. Get it in your head Nia Long told the absolute truth! Bey can not act. She can sing and dance, that’s it! The Knowles clan does not have hollywood on lock down.
Okay yall know damn well she right. I mean Beyonce is one the best @ singing and performing. But as a thesbian no no no, Beyonce can’t do it. When I watch her movies, I see too much of Beyonce not the character she is playing. I mean seriously she need to step her cookies up on her acting cuz it really sucks forreal and yall know it. I’m a big fan of Bey too, but shidd she can do better. Seems like she don’t wanna loosen up or sum, cuz i know she can do it, but ol girl just wit the *****..
Hmmmm
Correct she buys all of the movies that she acts in and become executive producer so that is a good way to steal role from under other people but she has the money… That is why when Vivca made her own production company she was very smart because now she can start in a whole lot more movies with out fighting the other black actors and actress… She took control over her career..
I love Nia Long. But how you gonna tell someone what they can and cannot do. That is crazy. If Beyonce has that box office drawing power, and she wants to make movies then it is what it is. Nia why don’t you step up YOUR game. And anyone who said Beyonce can’t act must not have seen Cadillac Records.
Hey Jade, BE, *****catfun and more…
I have to say this. The ONLY reason that “Obsessed” was #1 it’s 1st opening week is because there was NO REAL competition that week with the other movies that were coming out. I don’t remember which movies were coming out alongside it but none of them were of any interest, at least not to me. I did NOT go see Obsessed because I will not support that leach.
Beyonce has fans, and then she has stans. I guarantee you majority of her stans are some certified bum***** broads who wished they look like her. You can’t even say Beyonce just sneezed w/o them trying to rip you to shreds. They are sick and I’ve met GRWON ***** women that are Bey stans and when I look at them I can see why.
@the Butcher and this comment: “Bey has enough clout to shut Nia down completely in Hollywood!!”
You’re kidding right? Ummm,no. The truth is although Bey can sing and dance, I will give her, her due…Beyonce can not, I repeat, can not act.
The truth is this: If Beyonce/Jay-z tried to “shut Nia down” she would be shunned by the Black community. Nia has paid her dues in Hollywood. She is normal, beautiful, well spoken, real, and unlike Beyonce she can act in a drama, comedy etc.
If you are reading this Nia, thank you for showing that a black woman can be make it in Hollywood remain viable, have staying power and retain her respect without stripping, showing herself etc.
Sorry Beyonce, this is true right here.
These mother*****ers act like they really know Bey! Delusional, this ***** wouldn’t give none of you ***** kissers the time or day.
…can make it, that is…
NIA NEED TO STOP SHE IS NO SANAA LATHAN! NIA IS NOT THIS GREAT ACTRESS WHERE PRODUCERS ARE JUST DYING TO HAVE HER IN THEIR FILMS. AT THE END OF THE DAY IT IS BUSINESS. THEY ARE SET UP TO MAKE A PROFIT. BEYONCE HAS BEEN EXECUTIVE PRODUCING HER LATEST FILMS, SO SHE HAS THE POWER TO GIVE NIA A ROLE JUST AS SHE DID FOR GABBY.
LIKE SOME ONE ELSE SAID(SUPERFLY SISTER)
And for those saying she’s only acting for the money, she would NOT have done Cadillac Records if that were the case. That was a fairly low budget film that had a limited release. Not to mention, Beyonce gave her paycheck from the film to the rehabilitation clinic that helped her research the role. So, this isn’t just about money for her, she’s obviously developed a p*****ion for acting and she should be allowed to explore it.
NIA IS NOT A HATER SHE IS ABSOLUTELY CORRECTED BEY IS NO ACTRESS SHE CANNOT ACT AT ALL OBSESSED WAS A GOOD MOVIE BUT BEY ACTING WAS TRIBBLE THIS WAS NOT THE ONLY MOVIE THAT SHE SUCKED.HER ACTING IN DREAM GIRL WAS REALLY BAD BEY SHOULD STICK TO SING AND LEAVE ACTING FOR THE REALLY ACTORS
@ 6am & the rest of you COONS ***** putting *****es in seats this is why blacks don’t get oscars and other awards because of coon ***** thinking such as yours we need to be represented by those that do it well not those that half ***** do it remember coon the world basis all it’s opinions on the whole race by what they see these people do pure coonery is alive and well and you people are helping spread it!
weird. ppl actually make friends on here. lolz. beyonce aint a good actress…I *****in HATED HER IN CARMEN!! Gross!! Whatever. Nia’s a good actress. Scratch that..she’s a GREAT actress.
@Resurrected
“She played Etta James with out even talking to her much a real actress would have study this ladies life but no not Beyonce… This is another reason why she is not a good actress she cares nothing about the background and foundation of being a great actress in the film industry…”
True. I watch “Inside the Actors Studio” on Bravo, and every seasoned actor/actress expounds on the importance of knowing your subject inside and out and inserting that knowledge into your work. If it takes spending hours with the person you’re portraying, submitting yourself to discomforts, developing accents, imitating quirks, etc., that labor all goes into producing an authentic, affecting performance. In order to excel, you have to care about your craft.
I understand Nia Long’s point. She is not criticizing as much as making a general statement and her example was Beyonce…it wasn’t meant as a personal attack. The truth is we all know that there are many entertainers that are multi-talented…but her point is that if you are not…then do the work before landing the role to allow others how are doing the work to have the opportunity for a limited amount of roles provided for women of color. What is so wrong with that statement? She’s always been outspoken about the limited amount of roles and lessening content for women of color…I don’t see her comments as an attack at all.
@deafjamr04
what about you ***** going off everyday on someone you don’t know?
That’s the world we’re living in now, i don’t necessarily agree that singers should be offered all the great acting roles, but everything is about money. Beyonce is a HUGE box office draw. There’s not a more famous pop star out there right now. Beyonce has her hands in everything and that’s not a bad thing but i can see how real actresses feel like they are getting the short end of the stick. Somebody more popular but less talented is getting the role that she feels she should have. I used to feel the same way about Jennifer Lopez! Stick to acting and dancing cuz your ***** can’t sing! I always liked Nia Long as an actress. She was good in Love Jones and Boiler Room
@Kevin Mac
Money is important but it doesn’t mean that the art will be good. Transformers made more money than any movie Meryl Streep has been in, but does anyone think that Megan Fox is a better actress than Meryl?
Yeah, i agree with her, Mariah Carey for one should stick to singing, so what about actors who also sing, Jennifer Lopez who i think is neither a good actress or singer?
I agree with alot of the posters different views on here. I mean Beyonce will continue to try to do acting, singing, producing, fashion, whatever else she feels like.
And for Nia, she most likely will continue to do her acting and directing, she has directed some music videos.
I think that there is room for whoever wants to be to be in the industry. But I think that we have to create opportunities for ourselves. Like for instance, maybe Nia could start directing movies. Or even write screenplays, that way she can get quality Black actors and actresses in her films, or whoever she wants.
I can see Nia’s point about Beyonce because it is like someone coming into their field getting the spare parts that limited for Black women. But if Nia wants to stay in the game, then she might need to take a lesson from Ice Cube, Spike Lee, or Tyler Perry and create her own stuff. I mean Ice Cube and Spike, they deal with the big studios and alot of times, Spike has been burned. But Tyler really has created a spot for himself and Nia might just have to do the same.
One thing about Beyonce, she got her hustle on, now how long any of it will last, well, only time will tell. Eventually, you can spread yourself way too thin. Sometimes people want to do everything they see and everything that pops into their head, but sometimes, that is not always the wisest thing to do.
Nia Long is just to damn beautiful,, and I agree on some level what she is saying.
Both women are talented within their respective fields. I agree that talent (in both music AND the movie business) is secondary these days… as executive suits in both fields are more into revenue rather than the quality of the art. Which is why I don’t spend my sweet moolah on movie tickets- (I mostly watch foreign and am a staunch supporter of independently made flicks)- or subscribe to radio overkill of mainstream music.
While Beyonce is currently the ***** du jour RIGHT NOW… due to clever marketing and a tireless work ethic… I would NOT be so quick to label Nia Long as being bitter or unemployed. She didn’t personally attack Beyonce. She SAID (after being asked) she didn’t see Obsessed and that movie executives should re-consider real actresses who HAVE ACTING CREDENTIALS, rather than who’s IN RIGHT NOW when casting roles.
Um, anyway the last time I checked, the reviews for Obsessed weren’t that great, and Beyonce’s acting chops are lackluster and wooden at best. As talented as she is, she’s NOT a natural actress. Period.
Everyone could stand to hone whatever new creative endeavor or craft their delving into. Just sayin’.
Droppin’ knowledge on dem hoez! Haaaaaaaa Haaaaaaa!
@ Resurrected–
EXACTLY.
It is what is. Beyonce has the money to take control of her career, and I don’t blame her for that. If Beyonce wants to make a movie during her down time, then that’s her business. And if enough people want to see it to make it number 1, then thats even better. But point is, Nia needs to take control of her career. She needs to get together with a group of established black female actresses, and they need to start their own production company. That would be the most logical decision. But instead of actually doing something about it, they all just sit around and complain about Beyonce. It’s tired. (JUST LIKE BEYONCE’S ACTING). And I love Nia.
Also–most of the roles Beyonce has been in, she’s played a singer. And from what I know, Nia can’t sing.
@ CHERYL
While she may have a p*****ion for it she still needs to put so p*****ion into going and getting some acting cl*****es and then come back and represent herself & the rest of us the right way
For the record….although I stated in my comment that Nia Long really should fall back and stop hating…in no way, fashion or form am I saying that Beyonce has acting ability, she CANNOT act, she needs acting lessons as well as voice and diction lessons, that southern drawl has to go, especially when she is in movie roles.
I think that JHud was the only person that has really given Bey a run for her money because everything that she does she makes look so effortless… JHud we need you again time to drop that baby and get going…lol..
Nia’s ***** would be in the studio now if she thought she could sell a cd, all these actors try to sing at some point.
glad she said that I LOVE NIA,beyone is a good singer but a HORRIBLE actress. stay off the big screen.

She actualy did a good job in Obessed, for once a movie wasn’t bad, because of her bad acting!
———————————————-
NO SHE DIDN’T! LOL!!! But I guess its a matter of opinion. The movie was bad because and just badly written and with more explaination and fleshing out the history of the characters could have been much better.
Beyonce was not a good, Im sorry. Just like her singing, she overacted and didn’t have layers or subtlety that actors have. And they know when to do what. She just can’t act. I was laughing at inappropriate times because she can’t act.
She was better in Cadillac Records where she didn’t have a major role and was singing.
I think Nia Long is a good actress and I agree with her.
Obsessed would not have been good no matter who acted in it. This movie was manufactured by Bey and her dad and Magic Johnson(executive producers) so Bey can be in a non-singing movie role.
Nia would have done that role some justice.

I think that JHud was the only person that has really given Bey a run for her money because everything that she does she makes look so effortless… JHud we need you again time to drop that baby and get going…lol..

THANK YOU!!!! It’s painful to watch. And as a black woman, I feel embar*****ed when they speak! I have no idea why!
I agree with what Nia is saying,alot of these singers are trying to act when they just don’t have that true talent,they are given roles due to their popularity not true talent,to me Bey isnt a good actress,Mariah also tried,her acting was also bad,Jennifer sings but she just had that true natural acting ability without training some people do.
The best way to speak in reference to this issue don’t support Bey’s movies if you feel this way enough flops will catch producer attention and then people will not want to work with her… Beyonce has never been black balled but there is a time and place for everything… I can admit if she comes out with an obsessed 2 I would watch it just not at the movies theaters..
WOW lots of Nia Long, dislike going on, but last time I checked Nia Long can act a whole lot better than Beyonce. Someone mentioned how great Nia Long Was in Boyz in the Hood 2, (obviously joking) Beyonce was GREAT in Carmen huh or Goldmember. “Just call me Foxy Cleopatra.” Right.
J the real one
I want to see JHud and one person can matter so speak for yourself..
TRUE WORDS NIA STICK TO YOUR GUNS OR YOU WILL END UP DOING *****O WHICH I THINK IS ALL BEYONCE IS SUITABLE TO DO
Beyonce is doing her things and that is all that she can do but she need to learn execution more when it comes to acting Solo did better in Bring it on 2 or 3 whatever one…
Nia is right on the money.
Bey is not an actress and i wish she would spare us and stop trying.
It’s not a natural talent and her attempts are hard to watch.

i agree with most folks here. Beyonce can’t act and Nia Long was right. the fact of the matter is movie studios are capitalizing on Beyonce’s (and other singers, rappers, etc) crossover appeal where Nia’s appeal is pretty much limited to black america. black america equals a limited market equals limited box office revenue.

I agree! Solange can act!
Beyonce seems blank and flat when she acts. Even her best role (Etta James) didn’t have that “it”.
Solange does! I think she should concentrate on her acting skills.
@Back On My Swag
Actually one of bey first movie was a non- white role that did very well, Austin Powers, she was choosen for her look only, because I love Austin Powers movies, and I was very upset that she ruined the ENTIRE movie! But that was long a go, and even I can admit she has gotten much better since then and will most likely continue to do so! There is nothing wrong with anyone wanting everything, if they are willing to work for it, nor is there something wrong with trying until you get it right!
I’m glad a cl*****ically trained and well respected veteran actress finally said this. Everyone was mad at Samuel when he said the same thing about some rappers. BUT IT’S TRUE. Will Smith had respect for the acting business and stepped his game way up, took a few cl*****es and look at him now. Bey: with all the money you have, it would NOT be hard to take at least ONE acting lesson.
STANS: the hate you are displaying based on Nia’s comments is cl*****ical idiotic behavior. Just because Bey can shake her fake ***** does not mean she can act that fake ***** off.
[...] but it’s just not about how talented you are anymore. It’s about, ‘How much box-office revenue will this person generate?’ When you see certain people – we won’t name names – they just [...]
truth… the only reason i didnt watch that movie was cos beyonce was in it..
and guess what? bey is in talks for OBSESSED PART TWO.
when will this charade end?
Nia, Please be quiet what have you done lately? You have not had any big roles in films you are a second rate actress. I don’t see you making 10 or 15 million dollars a movie, and you won’t be making that either because those type of roles go to the Meryl Streep, Kate Winslet or Julia Roberts etc. STOP DISSING other females who want to go into acting you sound JEALOUS. PS- Perhaps you can get a role in BOYZ IN THE HOOD 2 or Part 3

Hi Rome!
Hi Speak the Truth
@Nia’s ***** would be in the studio now if she thought she could sell a cd, all these actors try to sing at some point.
________________________________________________
Yeah, and a lot of THEM need to stick to their craft, because many of them can’t sing or sell an album either. There are truly talented artists who can do both, effortlessly… buuut, many actors needn’t sing or rap either.
EVERYONE IN AMERICA KNOWS BEYONCE CANT ACT. SHE CAN BARELY SPEAK. NIA WOULD HAVE BEEN MORE BELIEVABLE IN OBSESSED THAN BEYONCE. THE ONLY PEOPLE THAT WENT TO SEE THAT MOVIE ARE HER STANS. THERE ARE SO MANY FEW ROLES FOR BLACK ACTORS AND THEY HAVE TO COMPETE WITH SINGERS NOW WHO ARE BORED NOW.
@Speaking the truth….
Hey there
Hey Rome honey
Well I am sure Beyonce woulod be a little steamed if a well know actress gave her a run for her money is music and start to take her spot she would not be feeling it either…
@ Sydney
If the rumor circulating a while ago that she may play Angela Davis is true, there needs to be a movement to shut that down. It’s not a case of a black woman “hating” (despise that word) on another — Nia is sharing a truth that I’m sure many other black actresses are discussing behind closed doors
======================
It would be tragic, and a true slap in the face to not only true actors but to Angela Davis, if Bey plays that role
jcstansb @ gmail.com – You make me sick and I agree with whoever said take that nasty pic down. I could give a dang about anyone being gay- so what! But to flaunt it and throw it in everyone’s face with that nasty imagery. I don’t wanna see that. And I can’t stand the gay men who hate women. “LADIES PLEASE DONT RESPOND AS I AM NOT INTERESTED IN WHAT YOU OFFER” STFU! Did you get rejected by some women that’s why you’re gay. You sensitive insecure less than a man-dude. I’m a str8 female, but I don’t hate other females (my competition). It’s a fine line between being proud and thinking it’s cute and something to brag about. HOE sit down.

did you say ni**arachi? LOL
I don`t really care what Nia is talking about I just want to sleep with her A.S.A.P !

Man I`m really like in a touch with a womens need … So much so I`m like taking a bow for it at my desk !
Skraight Suck up is what I meant.
Bottom line not enough decent acting roled for women of color whether hispanic,black,mulit racial or ambigious as I,asian,indian.Therfore it creates this type of turmoil.If people of color w/ bank in Hollywood like Will Smith,Denzel Washington, Oprah, J-Lo, etc merge with whites who also would support a studio that distributes more theatre movies for ppoc then it would improve..

ARE YOU SERIOUS!!! Because Beyonce’s teenie bopper fans support her in drovws we forgot how difficult black actors and actresses have it in hollywood!?!?!
Black actors have it ROUGH! And no one cast them because they are afraid white people will not come out to see a black lead unless it’s Will Smith.
And as GREAT as Tajari was in Benjamin Buttons, she said she was unemployed.
So now roles for black women who can act are going to Beyonce because white people are more comfortable seeing her.
And to the person talking about get together and make your own moives. Many black actors have production companies and groups. They can’t get funding because people won’t come see movies with black actors UNLESS you are being a buffoon!!!
Be educated about the movie business and how it works before you criticize REAL actors and actress who honned their skills and learned their craft!
I WILL AGREE TO WHERE SHE SAID PEOPLE NEED TO STUDY THE CRAFT AND UNDERSTAND ACTING BETTER AND PRACTICE BEING A GOOD ONE AND NOT JUST JUMP IN MOVIES BECAUSE U WERE ASKED TO BUT I DOUBT SHE JUST REFERRING THIS TO BEYONCE SHES TALKING ABOUT ALL MUSIC ARTIST.
AS FOR NIA HER CAREER HAS BEEN DOWN SOMETIMES I GUESS TARAJI GETTIN ALL THE ROLES NOW LOL.

Beyonce should just sell her uterus to Madonna, so she can produce all the afrikan babies she wants instead of getting public denied adoption.
Can I just say..to get it out my system…
I saw Cadillac Records the other day…actually it was a great movie (only because my favorite underrated and underexposed actor Jeffrey Wright (the best character actor to date – in my opinion) but I was surprised at Beyonce’s skills in that movie.
I was not overly disgusted by her performance. On a scale of 1 to 10 I actually would give her a 7. She was not that bad at all…
But if it true about the Angela Davis role….I am on the next flight to L.A. to boycott….I refuse I refuse I refuse….
That girl got a good 15 years of cutting her teeth before she can even think of doing a serious role.
Ok I am done.

*Sigh*…People, it’s called an opinion…Beyonce is a great entertainer. She will never be the next MJ (R.I.P.), but she can hold her own and that’s great…Nia is a talented actress and beautiful as well…
Jamie Foxx is about the only actor & singer that can do both. He’s a great actor & a great singer. Yeah Jamie Foxx!!
I will never forget her first “role” in Carmen a hipopera. WACK!!
There are very few singers/rappers that can turn around and act. I mean you got Ice Cube, Ice-T, LL, Mos Def, Jaime Fox and Queen Latifah. I give you them.
And contray to what people may think, Mos Def was an actor BEFORE he became a rapper.
Just like there are some actors trying to sing, and they do a good job of it. Perfect example, Vanessa Williams. I mean it goes back and forth.
Didn’t Jennifer Lopez say the same thing about Madonna? Then, Madonna found about it and Jennifer ended up back-tracking and sending baby gifts?
Whatever!
@ JamieFoxxCan
He is not the only one that can do both. Check my list above.
@ JamieFoxxCan
I co-sign on that. Jamie is the M-A-N!
Nia needs to be quiet what has she done lately? all the roles she has played are either a jilted girlfriend or jump off hse has not had any really good roles and , she won’t receive any either beacuse she is getting too old.
Nia’s absolutely right, she just voiced what many already thought.
Beyonce is a great performer but not a great actress that is not a mystery. She has a hard enough time acting like herself to now take on a scripted role. Nia spoke the truth, times are changing people are looking to make money off of the superficial things and not the talent. What that means is that actors/actress’ need to be more proactive in self-promoting to compete with the artists that are looking to act now
`ll Talk about what I want to talk about Nucca !
I don`t really care what Nia is talking about I just want to sleep with her A.S.A.P !

You forgot Will Smith.
But I honestly think It should be easy for rappers because
1. You have to know how to project and enunciate
2. You have nothing but your speacking voice to project emotion or a feeling
3. You usually are telling a story (no dancing/ no special effects)
Rappers make good actors..
And you can add RZA to that as well. He did well in American Gangster.
Its the same difference between Jennifer Lopez should stick to acting causing singing isn’t her forte. No one, even the great Beyonce, can’t be good at everything.
I am a fan of both…but I am not so blinded by a ‘halo’ that I can’t call an ace an ace, a spade a spade, and a bad actress a bad actress…

Bey is buying her way into the acting world…and she will be getting her feelings hurt real quick too.

Dude is a force to be reckoned with.
Nia was not talking about Jennifer Hudson. Even though Jennifer did just one movie after being kicked off of American Idol she portrayed Effie White very well with respect to the art form of acting. They didn’t cast her based on how many people would go to see the movie, she was practically a *****ody at the time when she was casted.
Beyonce on the other hand has been casted for every movie she’s played in based on her public and fan appeal. Nia was talking about Beyonce even Stevie Wonder could see that.

Did seh deserve an Oscar for it, hell naw. But I know it KILT Bey when she got it and that was the only pleasure I received from her winning.

LMFAO! I agree!

I agree that to each his own view. I think think the role of etta james (although small) was the only thing good about that movie! I was made and wanted my money back! I truly can see she is getting better, And this is from a person who never thought she was a good actress, but credit s due when it is due, besides nina long has played the same person in every movie, and that means she has never ben able to showcase if she even has talent or dimention, starring in every black movie as the same person does not make you a great actress! Neither does playing the same person, that’s why it took mrs. berry and mr washington so long to get the award! (that and they were black!)You have to step outside your box and Nia’s box has been closed for a long time, no one wants to see her. It’s time for her to do better! Step it up! that’s all I’m saying, she has no right to say what others cannot try for in life just because she is not succeeding at it!

Yes but we also need to look at the content of which she won the Oscar for her role. She deserved that award hands down. It was a part for thick body, sing on cue at a moment notice, s*****y women who took no sh*t off of no one. (Obviously Nia could not play this part) JHud was born to play that part – and all those involved who voted for her – believed that too…(best believe the majority was white on that vote as well) Plus alot of those who voted for her love and respect the true craft of the (theater) but importantly the orginial play and score.

To some of the comments above: True, to an actor it’s about the craft, not about what amount of revenue you bring in. Quite a few of these new “actors” lack substance. That is why they seem so empty and hollow as people. Where is your spirit or essence if you’re just chasing money? Nothing, and that nothing shows when you’re potraying a part whether on the live stage or in a movie. What kind of actor are you, if you don’t even study the person you are set to portray? How would you know the time period given, the way people carried themselves, or spoke their words? If it is a period piece how would you play it if you did not do some type of research? All peolpe would see is an empty shell with no conception of what emotion to display or emote.
At times Beyonce has a blank look to her now. It’s as if she is not connecting with the interviewer in an interview, or in the case of her movies, her fellow actors. Maybe it’s to much coaching of what to say and how to act in public: Grin, move here, look this way, wear this…kind of like Micheal Jackson in the younger days the Remember when Beyonce first came out, how lively she was, could not wait to see her. Now everything is over-acted, over-sung, grandiose, braggadocios. Like Micheal Jackson she has been entertaining since she was a child. Praying she’ll be able to be maintain herself and her sanity. The Entertainment Industry saps the life out of some people.
@Elle – How many oscar nominations does Nia have? LOL, get serious.
Nia knows Beyonce is not taking roles from her, but she could have played in Sex in the City, or Secret Lives of Bees or Doubt, or Benjamin Buttons, or Why did I get married, once twice or three times LOL.
Or maybe HawthoRNe, or the new TV show Regina King is on – or even DAVE, or This Christmas, or Perfect Holiday, or the Family the Preys or Not Easily Broken, or Soul Men…. or

Just Jennifer Hudson won an Oscar does not mean she is a great actress she was not that great in Dream Girls to tell the truth. She is not receiving any of the big roles either, Hollywood likes a certain type of actress in order to attract the public, we all know the blonde blue eyed type gets the rolesregardless if they can act or not. Truth be told there are very few acting roles for blacks unless it is a lame Tyler Perry or some John Singleton film.

i guess she has a point, but you cant be mad at somebody else cuz YOU aint gettin no roles-not bey’s fault
“Aside from JHud, Queen Latifah, Alicia Keys, Tyrese, Mos Def, Will Smith and few others. Everybody else need to ‘STAY IN THEIR LANES’. ‘Cause acting is not for them.”
@Back On My Swag
You do have a couple of instances of wishful thinking on your list though. Jhud can’t act either. She played an angry black woman singer and she could sing the main songs. Practically any other eye and neckrolling sister on the street could have pulled the first part of that performance off even if they couldn’t pull off the songs in Dreamgirlz. Jhud got lucky on that first role but she is not a good actress either. Frankly, I think she is overrated too and her ego is a little out of control as a result.
I agree with Nia. Besides, her statement was a general one about the industry not directed at one non-acting musician only.
All these non job having wannabe casting managers trying to tell someone who to cast for their movies.
DO SOMETHING!
Write a script, cast Nia and all of the rest of the actresses sitting back waiting for a casting call.
Bottom line these youngins’ are hustling hard, and getting it in. Why somebody gotta fall back for you to get in?
I totally agree with Nia. Beyonc can sing her butt off but her acting skills are horrible, she did horrible in cadillac records, obsession, and that diana ross movie that is why Jennifer Hudson won the oscar and she didn’t it shows b needds to sit her fake non acting ***** down just stick to singing and dancing like a w*****.

I love Nia but Umm… yes its about how much box office you can sell. It’s a business. Movie studios are succesful when they sell tickets. Don’t knock someone else because they can drive sales. If Nia was busted she wouldn’t be in movies either.

BEYONCE CAN NOT ACT, PERIOD, END OF STORY. THERE ARE HOWEVER A FEW EXCEPTIONS WHERE A SINGER HAS SUCCESSFULLY TRANSITIONED FROM SINGING TO ACTING….ALAS, BEYONCE ISN’T ONE OF THOSE SELECT FEW

Oh no,not another Z list actress who is trying to promote herself by dissing Beyonce!
Beyonce has been in about 4 or 5 movies so I’m trying to figure out how she is taking roles from anyone especially when the roles are not promised to anyone!
Nia is not well liked in Hollywood circles,that’s the part of the story that Nia is not going to mentioned.Beyonce is not the only singer who get roles,Jenifer Hudson has also had acting roles but of course Nia doesn’t take issue with her.No one whether singer or rapper should limit themselves because someone like Nia refuse to explore all her possibilities!
Just Jennifer Hudson won an Oscar does not mean she is a great actress she was not that great in Dream Girls to tell the truth

Wow…what a HATER!!
An OSCAR means she was the BEST SUPPORTING ACTRESS OF ANY ACTRESS THAT YEAR…..that’s pretty d@mn close to being GREAT in a role.
They don’t just hand out OSCARS to black women. You have to be BEYOND GREAT…and J.Hud was just that in Dream girls. She was better in the “Bees” movie than any role Beyonce has EVER played!!!
Please stop with the hate!! Call her fat, ugly or whatever, but SHE KILLED THE ROLE OF EFFIE WHITE!!!

Very true!! But Halle also had one for Monster’s Ball which she only got because she let that TRAILER PARK TRASH BILLY BOB THORNTON blow her back out. That movie SUCKED *****!! Denzel also got one for Training Day which was a good movie but he’s played WAAAY BETTER ROLES AND CHARACTERS THAT HE SHOULD’VE WON AN OSCAR FOR.
————————————————-
ABSOLUTELY!!! They might as well gave Halle and Denzel and aluminum can! I hated both of those movies. I can’t even stomach Monster’s Ball and I watched Training Day once and that was and will be it. Both movies were very disappointing and they BOTH have have numerous films that they could’ve and should’ve received Oscar’s for.

Okay I’m back…what the deal?
Training day was still epic , but Denzel has had numerous roles that deserved recognition – hell even man on fire was excellent..
“Miami is disgusting. All those latin males. They all look like Razor Ramone and the females look like Carl Weathers. No one speaks *****in English. Then the god damn Haitians spitting on your food at Checkers.”
- Its funny cause this only sarcasm cause if you seriously have problem with MIA you need to get your eyes checked , same reason Dwyane Wade doesnt want to leave the sorry Miami Heat..
So Beyonce doing Angela Davis sound like it might be career suicide but I don’t think she thinks her role through but just does role for the money and fame potential… She does not have an art for picking her movies at all… Real actresses take this method seriously because you can get tight casted but Beyonce knows nothing about that right now the terminology for acting.. I use to be in theater in school and took professional acting cl*****es and it is not as easy as it seems… It not about showing emotions but controlling your emotions at the right times and scenes… It also about believing that you are your character very deeply, Beyonce has not mastered that yet..

Beyounceme is a horrible actress… the roles that she has had could have easily been played by any-given black actress or wannabe. As for the staying in you own lane I agree and disagree examples:
Mos Def=good actor
50 cent-bad actor
Dr Dre=bad actor
Snoop=okay actor
Tupac=good actor
Will Smith=good actor
Tyrese=okay actor
the Game=Okay actor
LL Cool J=good actor
Jaime Foxx=good actor
EVE=okay actress
Ice Cube=okay actor
Ice-T=Good actor
Heavy D=okay actor
Vanessa Wiliams=good actress
There have been many that have crossed the line and many that shouldn’t have walked to the line, like Street Property and pt 2..just trash…its all about having the talent and sorry Beyonce does not have a good acting bone in her body.. did you even see Carmen. Nia has a pointto a certain degree.

How the ***** are black actors gonna tell rappers/singers what to do when these directors and studios keep hiring them. Maybe NIA LONG doesnt have the box office draw and that’s why no one will hire her, NIA LONG was never a great to begin with.
The great actors are still getting roles, it’s the *****ty ones like NIA LONG who arent.
Beyonce feels more theatres on a consistent basis than Nia…Sides, Nia (with the exception) of Love Jones does not have the status of being a Leading Actress. It’s all about BOX OFFICE…And another thing, Nia’s beef should be with the Producers and Studio Casting System, not Beyonce. Btw, Nia is pushing 40 – By Hollywood standards, she’s “MATRONLY” now, hence her only roles of late is playing Ice Cube’s or Mar-tin Lawrence’s wife/babymama
Agreed – Although Training Day was entertaining, I thought that Denzel should have Oscars for his roles in The Hurricane and Malcolm X.

I dont think Nia is hating on Bey. It is what it is. Big name big money. I havent seen obsessed really dont have an interest too until maybe it comes on HBO.
shut your old tired ***** up Nia, your hateration makes you look bad and even older than you are.
I think that was an act of pure jealousy. Back before we were asked to multi task you were either an actor or singer, but nowadays multi- tasking is the thing to do, I say don’t hate because you can’t sing or because she’s noticed more than you are. I think nia long is beautiful and a great actress, but as black women we need to be supporting one another not hating on each other, our race will never learn, smh

J-Hud’s Oscar win was nittersweet for me. Oscar’s shouldn’t be given out like a piece of candy. Did she blow Bey ***** out of the water in Dreamgirls, absolutely. Did seh deserve an Oscar for it, hell naw. But I know it KILT Bey when she got it and that was the only pleasure I received from her winning.
I’m still salty at the Oscar awards for not giving Angela and Laurence their due for “What’s Love got to do with it”
———————————————–
THOUGH I DON’T AGREE WITH YOUR STATEMENT AS A WHOLE, I WAS TRULY UPSET WITH JENNIFER’S OSCAR WIN, I TOO DIDN’T THINK SHE DID SUCH A STELLAR JOB. IF ANYONE SHOULD HAVE WON AN OSCAR FROM THAT SET, I WOULD HAVE WENT WITH EDDIE OR JAMIE. PLEASE DON’T GET ME STARTED ON ANGELA AND LAWRENCE, THEY ARE MY ALL TIME FAVORITE ACTORS. I PAINS ME THAT ANGELA HAS YET TO WIN AN OSCAR AND JEN CAN PLAY THE ANGRY BLACK WOMAN AND WIN ONE. PEOPLE ARE RIDING NIA COATTAILS BECAUSE THEY FEEL SHE IS ANTI-BEYONCE. WHEN YOU PUT NIA’S ACCOMPLISHMENTS AGAINST BEYONCE IN THE MOVIE INDUSTRY, BEYONCE WINS HANDS DOWN. I LIKE NIA SHE IS A COOL ACTOR SAD TO SAY, SHE HASN’T WOWED ANY DIRECTOR IN HOLLYWOOD, OTHERWISE SHE WOULD BE GETTING QUALITY WORK BY NOW.

Nia is hatin a lil, but I don’t blame her a bit. Bey is a product of fabulous marketing and movie companies trying to cash in on the current IT girl. While I don’t blame Bey for ridin that wave, it just shows how greedy and selfish she is…her arrogance is a turn off. She’s trying to be Diana Ross… she tries too damn hard. it’s annoying as hell.
and for the record, her BET performance was a JOKE. i couldn’t believe it.

*************
Angela B*****ett is a great actress and she has not had a major role either
First let me say that I’ve been a fan of Nia Long since “Love Jones” and “The Best Man”. During my teenage years, she was the object of many of my fantasies. But enough about me…Nia has been in the game and featured in some cl*****ic films. But let’s be honest, if you were doing producing “Obsessed” and your choices for the lead actress role came down to either Nia Long or Beyonce, who would you pick? I know a lot of people will say that Nia Long is a much better actress than B and I would probably agree. However, when you’re putting together a cast for a film that’s expected to earn profit, an actor’s popularity will almost always be a part of the decision process. As much as we all love her, can we *****ume that the same movie would have had the same 1st weekend box office opening w/ Nia as the female lead?? Obviously there’s no way for any of us to know that answer but that’s why you have to make these kind of decisions when making a movie. The fact is, Beyonce’s fan base is much bigger and broader than that of Nia Long. Although Idris Elba is not an unknown, his name in Hollywood isn’t big enough yet to *****ure studio’s that people will flock to see his movies. While B might not be the best actress out there, you can’t deny her star power and you can safely *****ume that her fans will see any movie she’s in simply because she’s in it. I know there’s gonna be people who say that it’s not all about box office revenue. That might be true if you’re talking about a film that doesn’t cost a lot of money to make (just off hand i’d say a budget pf $30 mil or less, give or take). But when you’ve got a film that cost a lot of money, if that money is made back, you’re not gonna harder time making films in the future. Don’t get it twisted, I don’t agree w/ casting someone purely because of their star power. Besides the fact that it’s unfair, it also doesn’t always guarantee success. One of the biggest movies this summer is “The Hangover” and the actors in that movie are far from being A-listers. However what they do have going for them is buzz. All of them have been supporting actors is popular films and tv shows but yet always find away to be scene stealers. For all the work Nia has done, these days she doesn’t have any buzz going for her.
Thank you please about time. Same thing happens over here in the uk!
Looking at how Jennifer Family was murder GOd givs you stuff for the reason…I think he wanted to make sure that the doors was wide open for here because she is on her own now… Not matter what poeple might say about JHud girl has a beautiful a*****ude…

Beyonce feels more theatres on a consistent basis than Nia..
I guess your statement is true, but one thing is for sure her acting thus far as left many dissappointed, I mean look at Cadillac Records……it flopped, not because of anyone else except BeyBey, she was heavily promoted as the STAR and the critics ripped her to shreds, for the most horrible portrayal of a singing legend ever. Unlike Angela B*****etts portrayal of Tina Turner, or Foxx’s portrayal of Ray Charles…… Hopefully someone will let her know that acting is not her thing…TRULY,not her thin.
I do not Agree with Nia’s premiss. Do you know some of our greatest most ground breaking performers in acting have had careers music, dance, or comedy FIRST. DIAHANN CARROL the first black woman to have her own show came from music, BILL CROSBY the first black man to have a lead in a tv series (I SPY) as well as SAMMYE DAVIS,DELLA REESE, DIANA ROSS, LENA HORNE, DOROTHY DANDRIGE, some old, old schoolers like LOUIE ARMSTRONG, HARRY BELAFONTE,PEARL BAILEY even today we have WILL SMITH the biggest movie star in the world! LLCOOLJ, QUEEN LATIFAH, ICE T! Their has been countless black people who have strecthed themselves artistically! Now if your are black and you JUST want to ACT…you’d better be good DENZEL WASHINGTON TYPE OF GOOD! And you better be beautiful HALLE BERRY TYPE OF BEAUTIFUL! To improve your odds of getting work!

It’s not about “IDOLIZING”, it’s about “CAPITALISM”. Beyonce had more B.O. potential, than Nia. Lets’ be honest, without Beyonce’s parti*****tion in “Obseesed”, in all probability, it would not have been green-lighted or at best, it would’ve went straight to dvd.

Well Said. Some people just dont realize there are more followers than leaders in this world.
Think actors and actress that are making good money like Will, Halle, and Samuel, and Denzel need to make there won production company to enable more black artistic in movies and take Hollywood by storm just like what Tyler did…
I agree with all who says that Angela and Lawrence were robbed of Oscars! These two actors were trained at some of the best schools and kills every role they are in!!!!

Hey I ain’t no traitor. You know as well as I that South Jersey and North Jersey should be two different states! But Central… now you have the best of both worlds then.

Nia makes a great point yet producers know that sex sells and Bey is strickly sex – What her stans don’t get is that Bey can’t act nor sing live. All of her concerts are lip-synched via pre-recorded tracks, which is why Bey doesn’t parti*****te in anyting spontaneous. She has to have time to hit the studio and perfect a tape before performing.
Before all you stans call me a lie please watch the tape where Bey fell down the steps at a concert and was still singing on the ground – that’s why she jumped up and kept dancing because the track was still playing. Also look at her performance with George Michael – her voice is heard even when her mouth isn’t moving.
She is a GREAT PERFORMER but she cannot ACT nor can she sing LIVE and as such she should STAY IN HER LANE! – Time is running out for Bey – come September – Whitney is back!

What people do not realize it is us with the power not these corporations with all of there money… They still need much support from the spectator us…If we never brought another product of the rich and famous were would they be and who would they be… The big dog’s loves to dangle treat for the poor slave minded people called the main stream audience..
Cadillac Records flopped, not because of Beyonce, but because of the subject matter: Chess Records. The studios’ marketing strategy was betting on Beyonce’s drawing the youth (her fans) to a movie about someone (pre-dated) them by over 60 something years…Hell, even Dream Girls fell below it’s B.O. expectations.
How about a movie starring Bey, with costars TIny and TOya and Weezy and Master P? Would that bring a box office blockbuster because of the talent or because of star power? Then when the critics tear it apart, “we” (some not me) will be saying the critics are racist instead of saying what needs to be said:, “The acting sucks and they need speech cl*****.”

What Nia is saying is for Beyonce’s own good.I agree Beyonce did that movie for profit.Beyonce knew got damn well that movie was going to be a horrible mess.The quality of the movie was horrible.I think it just goes to show mabey B is money hog.I would have never thrown myself into a low-budget looking production.Beyonce has enough money to p***** on some things just to keep a good reputation.
@ Resurrected
So true. Ill be damned if I make Beyonce or any of these stars any richer! Support my ***** support the community.
@JB sadly my 13 year old and her friends would love to see that..SAD…..Acting isn;t acting anymore its just talking to a camera, with no emotions or charisma.
Prime example…sorry but ATL..a hott ghetto mess
I think this is really petty not to mention ridiculous. Who is she to tell ANYONE (besides her son) what they should and should not be doing??
If Nia could she’d be doing the same thing Bey is doing….MONOPOLIZING the game.
Always been a fan of Nia’s but this here…is just wrong and petty.
Beyonce hasn’t done anything that any smart, business minded individual wouldn’t do…which is trying EVERYTHING.
Will it all be successful, who knows?
The point is NOT to limit yourself. Ever! Regardless of what the haters say, DO YOU.
So if that means,that some of your sisters and brothers may throw salt…take it all in stride on your way to the bank.
While Nia’s point isn’t lost on me but she definitely could have gotten it across without directing it at Beyonce because honestly Bey wasn’t the first and will not be the last to crossover.
Morning everyone
Why are yall in this thread? Here’s my comment: The studios follow the money, and BEYONCE is part of the machine, and she will generate more money than NIA LONG. Nia= better actor Bey= money maker, do the math
*back to the* She Said: Does the Ex Have a Place in Your Man’s Life?
Resurrected
Think actors and actress that are making good money like Will, Halle, and Samuel, and Denzel need to make there won production company to enable more black artistic in movies and take Hollywood by storm just like what Tyler did…
LOL! It’s one thing to produce your own product, but quite another to get said product, distributed (let alone marketed). Tyler Perry’s ***** is distributed and marketed by Lion’s Gate. Will Smith has his own film production co. called Overbrook, and trust, all of his product is co-financed/marketed/distributed by the studio system.
never been a hater but ol girl is right and she is a great actress to the idot that said she wasn’t. bey is a good singer but acting will never be her strong suit
@Snoop …what thread are u in???
Hey man she just doing what a hater do….

the worst. real news hollyhoodhdtv.com
intresting ,
i love B, she is a great entertainer, but i do believe that she could sharpen up on her acting.
Its funny how we go overboard with the word “hating” and “Hater”… just b/c someone give there opinion on something is called hating. So everytime so ask you something about someone i guess you are hating too. She never said Bey name but everyone jump to say its about Bey. Everyone know Bey can’t act, but she do anyway b/c of who she is. I saw Obsessed and it was ok. Bey did an ok job, but the white girl stood out the most and everyone knows that.When everyone came out the movie they wasn’t talkin about Bey I’m sorry.
@ FACINGREALITY
I do see Beyonces time running out. Im sure I’ll be called a hater for this. Anyway I have always preferred A Keys music because it is more real and from the heart and she has real music talent. A keys also does more for the community which I like to see. Did anyone notice how Beyonce all of a sudden is partnering with Hamburger Helper to help feed the hungry when she found out BET was giving A Keys a Humanitarian Award! Pay attention people its crystal clear out here, all you have to do is pay attention.
Damn yall *****s talkin a lot today.
Redd Foxx
I will support someone that is bringing life to the world not death in images, songs, and reputation… This is the reason why children are so off the hook now because parents are bobbing around more than there children… Beyonce maybe fameous but what she bring to the world is poison most of the time… It not about the money but the message behind the money… Black people are so controlled by who and what they like, easy way for the white media to get away with what people do not want to see clearly…
who is nia? probably acting b/4 iwas born. i am 24.lol
What’s up to all the beautiful Bossip ladies?
Head nodd to all the ugly Bossip hoes.
What up, what up, what up!!!!
I agree with you all who stated Beyonce isn’t believable in the role she plays. If she can’t act,while she jsut can’t act. Nia isn’t not hating on Beyonce! She only speaking the truth. Why in the hell she has to be all over the place anyway! The white people know she will fill seats and her fans will pay to her do anything,not because she is that good. I really don’t think she is the only powerful singer as you all say. She just was marketed very well. Then she started taking singing and dancing lessons to make her do those great performances. Letoya ***** can sing (youtube her singing Regret).Her voice is just ***** good as Be,but she will never get the chance to shine because you people are all in Beyonce *****. By the way Beyonce was hating on janet (father) and letoya (can’t caring atune),so that mean she’s a hater or was she only taking the truth. She made the right movie because her fans are obessed and delusional about their prefect Queen B!
Hey MAN and BG!

Nia Long is exactly right. It no longer matters if a person has talent. It’s all about the money, even if the movie sucks. Because we don’t demand more as a people then we will be forced feed the ***** that is shoved down our throats and our children throat.
@ L…..She Said: Does the Ex Have a Place in Your Man’s Life? thread, it’s more than likely gonna turn into a sexual convo.
How are yall going to say Nia is hating on Beyawnce when yall come up on here hating on celebrities that YOU DONT EVEN KNOW…every damn day!
GTFOH! Beyonce can’t act point blank. And all that crabs in barrel is pure BS.. I don’t see Beyonce reaching out to other Black women at all in most of the things she do. She will call a Mexican or White women first! *****ody has to kiss her ***** all day like most people do..who is she really but the white man’s cash cow for now!
Team Nia all day..and if you are reading this Nia I say kudos to you………….A REAL ACTRESS!

@Nophace the Great
There is no way anyone here can convince me that 3-4 hours spent COMMUTING in a car each day isn’t “wasted time” over the course of living in the DC area. And once that time is gone, you can never get it back. You can always get another job, or make more money. But you can’t replace lost time.
noone is perfect i get that but nia long needs to shut up if they both go for rolls in a movie and if the casting director doesnt think nia would be a good fit then its not beyonce’s fault so for her to come out of her face with that nonsense shes hating hard i dont get it if every singer/rapper just stuck to their chosen profession then they wouldnt expand their horizions and move in different lanes stop hating nia and step ur acting game then it wouldnt be so much of a problem

Am I the only one tired of Beyonce CD already.Her songs seemed relevent for a few months. It’s time for Beyonce to come out with a new CD fast,or she need to fade to black.Hopefully a CD with more hits on it.I am a Sasha fan so I gave the Beyonce CD away.The 1st CD beyonce is too slow(I cant lie when I think Beyonce I think up tempo,booty shaking,smack talking,If you want slow music or R&B you would choose J Hudd,A Keys,Keyshia Cole people who have better listening musicI dont want to hear B sing slow boring songs it’s already enough of thatout already) for me ‘but I do like the song Halo.The Sasha side has 5 songs on it including put a ring on it.Which was a stupid song but the video went hard.So with only one or two hits.I’m bored with the CD I think she should stay in her lane on up tempo music because we already have people doing what she’s talking about she’s transitioning to do
ok yall win….that thread sucks d!ck….lol
_____________________________________________________________
BOSSIP GOT A THREAD THAT SUCKS *****? WHERE THAT MUH*****A AT?
lol.
Nia is hatin a little. It doesnt mean shes telling a lie. I dont understand why Beyonce doesnt take acting lessons. She can barely give a decent interview, let alone become another person/character. Her movies havnt grossed that much money anyways. Cadillac Records flopped; Dreamgirls and Obsessed didnt really do that great either. Its insulting to people that are really talented and can really give a great acting performance.
I agree with Nia… Bey while a excellent entertainer, she is NO Actress!!! Obssession was a good movie, didn’t need Bey. Any Black actress would have done it justice. They couldn’t even write her any big scenes because she isn’t a good actress. Acting like a crazy Black Woman…… Not hard when she already showed us she crazy with Ring the Alarm Video!!!!
This is a side point but ” OBAMA ” is the man ! Dude tossed the baseball and did not embar***** himself. People love this president and was riding his nutz at the All-Star baseball game.
And why Nike got to confiscate the pics of Lebron getting DUNKED on ??!!
Okay now back to trying to desperately come up with something funny about this dumb post/thread from Bossip !

I’m laughing at this…. you are so funny. Nia has movie you can watch over and over… Such as The Best man, love jones,Friday, and boyz in the hood. I bet half of yall have at least 1 of these movie at your house on DVD’s. As for Bey we have Austin power in gold memember, Dreamgirls( you might have this one but she wasnt the star Jhud was),Cadillac Record( the movie wasn’t even about her. She was in the last 15min of the movie), Pink Panther,Hip hopera(horrible) and Obsessed(and she didn’t even make this movie the white girl did) I bet 20yrs from now everyone will still be watching the movie Nia was in Vs Bey movies.

Jim, Negrodamus Believes Colorado is a better suit for you. Flee.
All Beyonce is good for is gyrating. She can’t sing or act. She doesn’t feel her music because she hasn’t been through it. Beyonce has wrecked all the movies she was in… Goldmember, Dreamgirls, Fighting Temptations…she never shined in any of her movies…she is a hot mess who always have on a nappy wig. With all that money she has she should take up acting and singing cl*****es. She’ll don’t got nothing on Alicia Keys, Jennifer Hudson, they are true singers and very good actresses. Beyonce sit down somewhere and be wife to your husband.

Nia long is a great actress, but how can we see her range when Hollywood doesnt want to put black actresses in big movies. WE all love Halle and we know from her own words how difficult it is for her coming up in this business. There needs to be more Tyler Perrys to put black actresses in more leading roles.
Beyonce—is not a triple threat. She cannot act at all and she is only doing it because she thinks she’ll be able to win an oscar one day…maybe not with her acting/songwriting skills… everyone has limitations, but I cant blame Beyonce for trying…Those to blame are the ones that are hiring her.

It used to be so hard to convince black folk leasing was the smartest thing you can, buying a car is buying debt. They would always say, “but I don’t own it” I would say “dummy you don’t own a car that you finance till you make the last payment”

I used to have a luxury vehicle and I got tired of paying payments. lol Actually it got repo’d but it was the best thing for me. I did nothing but club, drink/smoke black n milds, stunt in my vehicle, pick up *****es, work, work-out and I was *****ing stressed out and it wasn’t fun or fulfilling. I did absolutely nothing, then after the repossession lol I was humbled.
In short I started “biking”(lol I had to cause a ***** ain’t have a whip). Now I have a car, but I bike, run and I just really enjoy the outdoors now. Actually in a month me and some friends are going over seas for a couple of weeks. We are talkin about buyin some property in a couple of years and just hangin out for a couple of years.
We figure we all have degrees and we can find teaching jobs anywhere. I have a friend that’s teaching in Africa right now and he’s sayin he might not come back and I don’t blame him.

Yup. I used to work at a dealership too and black people in there getting played like a violin.
And technically you NEVER will own anything in this country. You can pay off your house but try not paying the taxes on it and you will surely lose it. You can pay off your car but try not paying that insuarnace, you will lose it. Can’t win.
I don’t care if you’re a Beyonce fan or not, and I’m NOT a fan, but at the end of the day you cannot ignore the fact that this heffa can’t act to save her life!!!! Why does Nia have to be hating for stating a FACT? Call her a B-list to Z-list actress all you want but to me Nia has a very impressive resume and has proven that she can ACT HER BUTT OFF and takes her craft SERIOUSLY. It is a very sad say when movie execs care more about box office draw more than whether or the not the person they are putting in the spot light can act or not!! If that’s the case then I might as well get in front of the camera and call myself an actress! I think it’s a disservice and a slap in the face to the paying movie going audience to insult our intelligence in such a way as if we can’t tell the difference between a good and horrible actress. This girl is a singer and entertainer. She has not honed her acting skills, she is not a good actress at all and if I were an actor or actress, especially a black one, I’d be *****ed and offended by these wannabe actors and actresses taking jobs away from me too!
Nia is not hating, I totally co-sign with what she said. There are so many people who feel the same way. I love Maxwell but if he tried to act and was horrible at it I will say it and be real with it and not LIE just because I’m a fan of his music and want to keep propping him up!

In short I started “biking”(lol I had to cause a ***** ain’t have a whip).
__________________________________________________
its funny how in America, people look down on biking as a way of transprtation. But overseas, you see people doing it all the time. Or should I say, “we” look down on biking as transportation.
As soon as I can find a bike shop and get a new chain, I will be biking to work onthe days I don’t have school. Why pay for gas when I work like 40 minutes (walking) or 15 minutes (biking).
@ JB
A del sol??? Yeah he leased back in the day then, leases were not good back then. 15k is always the best way to go, if the residual and money factor is good the difference should only be about $5-$10 higher
Negrodamus Believes
This the exact reason why I only have loyalty for myself in the work place, corporation only want slaves and I am not going to be miserable for no one… I have dreams and do not have to settle for a false image to stay happy and motivated… Each year they decrease your benefits take all of your skills and abilities to for the up raising of there companies I don’t think so… I have a plan beyond the corporate world..
Nia is right Beyonce cannot act! Just like you superfans think Rihanna shouldnt be a performer, well Beyonce shouldnt be an actress.
And the reason why I think leasing is silly. What’s the point? Do we really need the latest model of something? You know who’s a great lady. Suze Orman. lol Here me out. All that material ***** is poison. Of course you want to look good, but you live to work, you don’t work to live.
My “old buddies” cause since my philosophy has changed my “surroundings” have changed also, still call me daily looking for something to do. I’ve been doing “something” all day.
It’s about time that someone in Hollywood spoke up. Most actors/actresses are too busy praising each other for fear of not getting a role. Beyonce can’t act and she’s stealing roles and money from actresses that have the skills. If I was Nia, I’d be *****ed off too.
LMAO @ Snoopadamus!

Ok, well, I would grab your ***** and *****ies while you were focused on the money bags.

@Whoa
I used to have a luxury vehicle and I got tired of paying payments. lol Actually it got repo’d but it was the best thing for me. I did nothing but club, drink/smoke black n milds, stunt in my vehicle, pick up *****es, work, work-out and I was *****ing stressed out and it wasn’t fun or fulfilling. I did absolutely nothing, then after the repossession lol I was humbled.
In short I started “biking”(lol I had to cause a ***** ain’t have a whip). Now I have a car, but I bike, run and I just really enjoy the outdoors now. Actually in a month me and some friends are going over seas for a couple of weeks. We are talkin about buyin some property in a couple of years and just hangin out for a couple of years.
We figure we all have degrees and we can find teaching jobs anywhere. I have a friend that’s teaching in Africa right now and he’s sayin he might not come back and I don’t blame him.
————————————————
OMG Look at you!!! *applause* I’m so proud of you. Seriously. I’m glad to hear you found an appreciation for nature bu not having a car plus you got some excercise by biking. Wow. That’s good that you and your friends are looking into foreign propert. Wow again. My girlfriend was dating this black guy (30 yrs old) and he’s been ALL OVER the WORLD> He told her straight up, I don’t plan on staying in the US. I wish black parents wouldn’t shelter their children so much and make them so fearful of living outside, happily and healthier, of the US. *Proud of you, really*
Yup. I used to work at a dealership too and black people in there getting played like a violin.
And technically you NEVER will own anything in this country. You can pay off your house but try not paying the taxes on it and you will surely lose it. You can pay off your car but try not paying that insuarnace, you will lose it. Can’t win.

I didn’t see Obsessed…did anyone else see it??
Hey Redd Foxx…
Are you Redd Tony’s sister??? LOL jk
Sounds bitter to me…..
What the hell makes people think they know what’s best for someone else. I am sure Bey accountants encourage her to make more movies. Nia should hit that staight to dvd market like Auntie Viv. If Beyonce would not have been casted in Obsessed, Nia still would not have gotten the part it would have gone to Sanna or Meagan Good. I like Nia but it makes me sick when sisters go at other sisters because their careers aren’t where they want to be. Beyonce and Alicia are not the reason you ain’t getting parts.
Whoa! aka Toot-it-up!
@Lady A
Girl I’m so blunt I lose friends for it. I’ve been learning to tame my mouth. When people ask me stupid questions I TRY to tell them what they really want to hear instead of saying what I want.
lol im too nice to really lose friends…i can tame mine at times, but if its on my brain I’ll let it out sometimes…
@Man,
lol I know…I won’t have straightbacks though…most likely have my curly mohawk…easiest thing to maintain for a week

I feel you on the materialistic side, if you are the type of person that rides ***** till the wheels fall off then a purchase is good for you, but things change in peoples live, kids, marriage, mechanical issues. That two door Civic may not cut it anymore for your lifestyle, and it’s nothing sadder than owing 10k on a car that is worth 3k. In today’s economy you are stuck in that car. No bank finances 7k of negative equity

So true. That’s funny cuz me and a friend was just talking the other day how we wanna get a bike. I want a vintage one with the basket in front. Out here in NYC, esp Brooklyn, black people are some of the DUMBEST (if that’s a word) *****’s on the planet. We are SO materialistic it’s deadly. All about what you’re wearing, driving, drinking, it’s disgusting. I myself have been caught up in it but I am breaking free.

OOOOOHHHH, O, No You Didn’t Bossip!!! Where does it say anything about a Beyonce? It sounds like Bossip is taking things out of context as usual!!! I don’t doubt that Nia said that but next time I expect the whole truth and nothing but!!! If it is true I concur, I don’t think Beyonce is a very good actress and can definitely use some acting lessons but what about those great singers who can really act and vice versa!!! i.e. Jennifer Hudson, Whitney Houston (whether you admit it or not her crack headed behind smashed The BodyGuard), and let’s not forget Ms. Diana Ross in Lady Sings the Blues, and doing for the fellas Mr. Jamie Fox!!! All I’m saying is if everyone with potential “stayed in their own lane” as Bossip so tactlessly put it then the entertainment business would be pretty dry and boring!!! Just my opinion!! Take it or leave it!!!
Suze Orman
Had to learn from experience has you ever heard her tell her life story… She was a very ignorant white lady when it come to money she had to learn how to invest right and handle money and she really only learned because she use to work for stock brokers… Everything takes and requires development first to maintain anything..

I LOVE NIA LONG, but she doesn’t really work regularly either. ANd it is unfortunately that its about ticket sales. I would LOVE to see more of her, but that isn’t these talentless actors/actresses fault its the companies fault who just say Yeah give it to him/her.. Go talk to your black movie makers..PLEASE!!!! Cause Janet can’t act anymore EITHER…
when you need to put *****es in seats to recoup your investment beyonce is the bigger star
________________________________________________
@6AM
Good point…
The problem is, is that the Studio Executives and Financiers of Movies not only want to recoup and make a decent profit = they want to make a ridiculous amount of profit and they do so at times by throwing in these big name celebrities with little to no acting ability and the quality of the films suffer as a result because of the distraction that they cause because they are not believable in the roles they play…
I see Bey as just trying to make the best of her life. She is popular even tho’ we get tired of seeing her everywhere, u got to give it to her for trying. That’s just like telling Vanessa Williams to take a hike tho, come on Nia..vanessa doing her thing too singing and acting..make that money ladies, just don’t forget to give back!
saaaaaay that Nia!!!!
@Whoa
man I used to be that guy. I’ve popped a bottle in every club from Orlando to Miami and it means absolutely nothing. My party Girl-friends were all dymes and it means nothing.
What’s funny is the past 4 months of this so called awakening I’ve gotten more interest from just nice females. Not as good-lookin as my old lifestyle and those females but that’s whats great. I can actually talk to my girl-friends now. The old ones was just like “what you drinkin and when we *****in”

I like Nia and think shes a talented actress but i dont think she has the right to say something like that about anyone weather it is Beyonce or not, Saying Beyonce cant act is a matter of opinion but Nia’s career speaks for it self and no one can stop her or any other great actress/actor from doing whatever they want(getting roles). I like Beyonce as well just for the sake of her being a strong hardworking BLACK sister.

HOWEVER 2DAY IS HUMPDAY
I heard Bey’s management team is trying to pitch Obsessed 2 because the first had a little success at the box office. Somebody needs to tell her to sit down. Her acting is terrible. I don’t hate on Bey, and I think she’s a great performer music-wise, but she needs to stop thinking she can do everything that her “Yes” people TELL her she can do.
As for her playing Angela Davis – a travesty in the making. Hope that NEVER happens. It would be a waste of a movie about one of the most prolific women ever to grace the Movement. If Bey was in the lead, I wouldn’t watch it on HBO, and I get cable for free!!! (no, I don’t pirate…I work in the industry)
@ Snoop
Im too tired to do anything! I was like a born again virgin. He had to bust me open! Then…nevermind.

Mos Def actually started out in acting and switched to rap. Luda sucks as an actor. And if Nia is in fact “decent” please remember that “decent” is better than “sucks” which describes Bey’s acting.
On a positive note, I do like Bey’s singing voice
They love to put words in peoples mouth! Not once did Nia Long say that specifically about Beyonce. Go on Bossip, still startin’*****!

I got news for you Nia…. It’s always been about the box-office. Hollywood is not trying to bring thoughtful and entertaining movies. Americans just want entertainment. We stopped thinking a long time ago.

Damn I thought I invented that!!!
The truth of the matter is that there are enough roles and enough money out there for everyone,Hollywood will and always has exploited who they want. If we ever stop playing the crabs in a barrel game and start using our influence to promote, recommend and support one another we could see more than just 3-4 women on screen. Nia is a smart and well trained actress. Beyonce is aggressive and *****ertive with getting hers. Both of these traits need to stop being put in opposition to one another and work together. Many others do it and thrive we have an issue of wanting to put ourselves against one another instead of helping one another. With that I could be talking race and gender. The truth is the truth and should be spoken, but a problem shouldn’t just remain a problem we should seek resolution!

This is too funny from a woman whose acting chops PEAKED when she was a teenager on a Soap Opera. Does Nia Long really think she is anywhere today because of her ACTING skills? Puhlease!
Sorry Nia but some people an act, sing and chew gum at the same time. It’s not Beyonce’s fault that your talent is limited. Bey can use some more seasoning in the acting department but Nia Long certainly is NOT the one to set her straight.
Now if Angela B*****ett or Viola Davis had something to say… then I might listen.
Meant “some people CAN act…”

Oprah tried acted before so whats the big deal. And movie stars want to be singers too. Infact if you dont know music stars will always be bigger than movie stars even if movies make more money.
Am a fan of Bey and for now I can say she needs better acting skills. But nothings wrong with her trying.
Am sure if Nia figured she could sell some albums tomorrow she would get into that lane somehow someway
OK IM OUT…GOTTA DO SOME DRAWINGS…LATAS YALL

In addition I would use caution in viewing any awards given or not given to black actors and actresses as a mark of their talent and contributions. This is the same industry that gave Denzel and award for Training Day and not Glory and Halle Berry and award for Monster’s Ball instead of any of her movies prior to that. Awarded for Thugs and W*****s not Historical Pioneers and cl***** acts.

Why do women get offended when they try to take things a little further than just being friends and you turn them down – no matter how polite, they still get offended.
I had the strangest experience this morning, one of my best friends (well I consider her a best friend) tried to have sex with me.
I am talking, I am in her apartment and she feeling on my ***** on some, I just want to ***** *****.
Here I am looking at this woman like,” maa just chill with the bull***** you know what this is.”
She is like no I always liked you, blah blah blah..
I was trying to be nice and not ***** a good friendship up, with sex ….. now she is looking at me like I am *****ing Satan, because I am not attracted to her in that way.

Diane Carroll,Dorthy Dandridge, Angela B*****et,Pearl Baily,Lena Horne,Loretta Devine,Nina Mae McKinney,Cicely Tyson…. and the list goes on. Bey stans don’t know what the art of real acting is because if all you watch are people who want to be actors but don’t realize that they are not good at it let alone take the time out to take lessons, well then yeah,the stans will really think that Bey really belongs on the screen. The actors that I named above are just what I said, actors- already blessed with their talent and worked ( and sacrificed) real hard to get into the industry, and took their craft seriously,who are willing to wait tables and work menial jobs just to be able to go to school. If all you look at are movies which are only put out to make a quick buck and star anything but actors, well I guess Bey is Oscar material to you. You can only buy and manipulate the industry for so long because after a while no studio, producer or writer is going to waste their time and money on someone who cannot deliver ,let alone comprimise the quality of their project). So much real talent gets p*****ed by,because of people who have a gimmick and not much else, and will do anything to stay relevent. Some of our younger folks really need to expand their minds and start looking at more quality work, rent out some of the great movies of the past,if you can’t rent you can also get them at the library, and some of these films are featrured on certain cable channels.I can really understand what Nia is talking about and what others are feeling.
@ gay guy showing his *****
oh that ish was funny when u said to 6am ” hey another gay guy in the house…snaps fingers”
Nia isn’t HATING on Beyonce. The fact of the matter is simply that people GO TO COLLEGE and train to be actors/actresses. It is a profession and anybody in the profession would feel like its a slap in the face to have someone like Beyonce take good acting roles. Its called “paying your dues”. Nia is simply stating the fact that Hollywood is stepping away from quality acting and focusing more on what is “popular” and what sells.
I am sure Nia meant no disrespect but truth is truth. Samuel L. Jackson made SIMILAR comments about rappers turned actors.
beyonce is too much she needs to calm down!!! n nia long is rite she is talent less when it comes to acting she had like 5 lines in dreamgirls n now she finks she is some world cl***** actress!!! n idris made that film without him the film would ave be nothing!!!!
Nia is speaking the truth as usual. She is by no means hating on Beyonce.The fact is beyonce CAN’T act.
Old School: You are most def speaking the truth. Those are REAL actresses!!! They actually respect, focus, and have sacrificed for them to be where they are. Beyonce is simply rinding the money train and ought to be ashamed of herself because she knows she can’t act. If she doesn’t someone should tell her! My aunt personally believes she is *****in’ for scripts and I wouldn’t doubt it.
Another thing: Why is it that when someone(particularly) a female says she doesn’t like Beyonce they automatically say that you are hating? I’m sorry, I am also a beautiful talented black woman. I may not be rich but I am rich in God and thats all that matters! I am happy with my life! Hate on that!
Okay let’s say Nia is telling the truth then…can she do anything about it? NO!!! The white folks are still running the show so if Bey or anybody else can make their paper by singing & acting then so be it. Nia hasn’t been in shyt lately herself other than appearing in a family movie with a rapper so now what?!
@tb
Beyonce can sing. I have been to a couple of her cocerts. Now Act! That’s my girl but I have to agree with Nia Long.
I am sure Nia Long is not attacking Beyonce. I think that she is commenting on the fakeness of the movie industry.
@EVERYONE!
NIA IS RIGHT! IT SHOULD BE ABOUT QUALITY NOT QUAUNTY.
She is not taking shots at Bey. She is talking about the movie industry as a whole.
***** NIA.PERIOD
“Nia is not a great actress so may be she needs acting cl*****es.”

LOVE JONES did it for me.
And Nia ain’t never been afraid to do tasteful ta-ta scenes – now that’s confidence!
Have any of you so called “black folks” heard the term “like crabs in a barrel”?!
Nia, shut up. You started the same way Bey has, you were not an expert, even so stil not are an expert. I haven’t seen anything from you that has moved my nerves.
Bey is an upcoming actor, so don’t hate. She will get there.
There aren’t many roles for black hollywood male or female so yes it should make an actor upset that they were p*****ed over for someone who can’t act just because of their name. You talk about black movies being awful at least someone is thinking of giving them work. Granted some of TP’s movies aren’t the greatest but I applaud his efforts in going outside the typical goto black actors to create his movies.
Someone mentioned HawthoRNe…do you think she would’ve been given a chance if her last name wasn’t Smith? Of if the show was created by someone else the part wouldn’t have went to an actor of a different race?
If Nia and Beyonce were each holding a cl***** on “the key to success” I’d definitely go to the one who makes 80 mil last year. Beyonce is doing something right and anyone would love to be in her designer shoes.
and LMAO that they ask Nia Long about Beyonce in her own interview. . . damn.
It doesnt take a great actress 2 speak da truth i agree wit nia nd beyonce do need actin cl*****es obsessed was a piece of ***** da only reason a lot of ppl went 2 it cuz it had bey in it but it was a piece of ***** bey is NOT A DIVA she needs 2 stick 2 strippin 4 jay nd being a nasty ***** ***** nd ***** dat she is
IT’S A FREE COUNTRY AND IF THEY ASKED HER TO BE THE LEADING ACTRESS IN A MOVIE-IT’S HER CHOICE
LUV NIA TO DEATH BUT-IF ACTING AINT BEEN PAYING THE BILLS GET ANOTHER GIG, MAYBE YOU SHOULD LEARN TO SING OR
NO NEED TO GET MADE AND THROW SALT-SHE SOUNDS AS IF SHE’S JADED LIKE SHE KNOW FOR A FACT IF BEY DIDN’T GET ASKED FOR THE ROLE THEN SHE WOULD HAVE-OR THAT BEY IS THE REASON SHE IS NOT GETTING CALLS
WHAT GOD HAS FOR YOU IS FOR YOU-PLAIN & SIMPLE
WAIT ON HIM……TRUST ME YOUR BLESSING IS COMING
IN THE MEANTIME, LEAVE BEY ALONE-JUST NOT A GOOD LUCK FOR SUCH A CL*****Y LADY
“Bey is an upcoming actor, so don’t hate”
Actor? Hmm, you might have something there then. I’ve never seen Nia do a transgender role so perhaps Bey would have her beat on that aspect.
Q: Bey what do you think of Nia Longs career?
A: Bey: Nia who?
CAN’T SPELL FOR SHIAT TODAY
BUT ANYWAY CL*****IC EXAMPLE OF THE CRAB MENTALITY
TELLING PEOPLE WHAT “YOU” THINK THEY ARE GOOD OR BAD AT AND WHAT THEY SHOULD STICK TO DOING…AS IF IT’S YOUR CHOICE TO BEGIN WITH
IT’S ENOUGH BREAD OUT THERE FOR EVERYONE TO GET THEIRS, AND IT SEEMS TO ME THAT NIA HAS BEEN FOCUSING ON RELATIONSHIPS AND BEING A MOTHER TO HER CHILD-I’M CERTAIN IF SHE PUT HERSELF OUT THERE FOR ACTING GIGS SHE WOULD GET CASTED
AINT NO SHINE IN KNOCKING SOMETHING SOMEONE ELSE IS DOING OR EVEN TRYING TO DO-PERFECT YOUR OWN CRAFT/SKILL-AND FOCUS ON GETTIN YOURS
NIA LONG JUST MADE UNECESSARY BEEF FOR NO REASON, IF SHE AINT HAVE NOTHING NICE TO SAY SHE SHOULD HAVE SAID NOTHING
SHE COULD HAVE ANSWERED THE QUESTION WITHOUT GIVING SPECIFIC EXAMPLES-HER MENTIONING BEY TO BEGIN WITH REEKS OF ENVY
Nia needs to talk to the studio executives because they make the decisions! Entertainment is ALL about marketing & MONEY…Nia knows that.
REPLY @the BUTCHER (nia is not a great actress so may be she needs acting cl*****es.
Bey has enough clout to shut Nia down completely in Hollywood!!)
THANK YOU! WHO IS NIA LONG THESE DAYS ANYWAY? SHE WAS A HOT ACTRESS FOR A MIN BUT NOT LIKE SHE WAS IN DEMAND. PPL POP OFF A LOT OF ***** ON THE DAILY ABOUT BEY.. AND SHE’S STILL ON TOP. GAME OVER! FILE THIS AWAY IN THE BZZZ HATER FILE. GOODBYE
Maybe Nia is venting out her frustration due to the fact that she has a difficult time at auditions, lol. Damn does she really dislike Bey ? I think that Nia should lay off the haterade and go to film school and make her film debut, lol….
lmao. You tell her Nia Long. At least she is speaking the truth about Mrs. Beyonce. So what if Beyonce has alot of money. She can’t act and she needs to stop
Well Beyonce just gonna have to take acting cl*****es then. Either that or she not getting no roles beyond just a quick box office plug. Nia Long put her work in she don’t got to act anymore she been in cl*****ics. She just speaking her mind and trying to help Bey out if she wants to get those roles and make the transition to Hollyweird.
co-sign Nia
m presidential *****/so kall me the king/i run this ***** n u *****z know that/ t mobile G1 on my side/ grab my gun n my klip n lets ride/ realest ***** in the streets/ u already kno/ Google Boyz bak n we got them haters mad/ Im the **********kin man of the year/ diamonds in my ear 50,000..its nuthin/ always katch me stuntin kuz i got it like that/ fresh on the scence/ just signed my joint deal/ stash box money rekords/def jam rekords….u already kno/ ***** *****z bout to get wiped out/ officer ross klaim he a boss/ my *****kin goon know u a snitch so stop frontin butterball
I don’t like that lipstick on Nia, but she’s still pretty. Oh, and Bey can’t act to save her life. She’s pretty awful. She needs to take some public speaking cl*****es and learn how to articulate and enunciate her words. Pretty until she opens her mouth…to talk.
Nia is right on one hand- but- it’s a business- Beyonce will bring in more loot than Nia- so who would you go with if it was your business to make money on a movie you produced?
preach it Nia!
“Nia is right on one hand- but- it’s a business- Beyonce will bring in more loot than Nia- so who would you go with if it was your business to make money on a movie you produced?”
^^^ And that’s a fact. Meaning that Beyonce got a lot of these stans irretrievably hooked and therefore blinded to what acting is truly about (researching your role and ‘becoming’ the character being portrayed, for example). The production companies don’t give a fu*k if the actress is “true”, they have to pay those salaries and production costs and still turn a profit – it’s all about the margins. Nia knows this better than anyone – she’s just sticking up for the art.
Nia sounds like a hater, just like she does in her movies…a bitter chick…I’d rather see Beyonce
I agree Nia! beyonce should sing and actresses like Nia, Taraji, Angela and Sanaa should act. stay in your lane beyonce! Thank Goodness somebody is not afraid to speak the truth. Beyonce is a terrible actress.
Well, if we’re going down that road, how many STAGE TRAINED actors in NY don’t make it in Hollyweird because they are not “leading man/lady” material (meaning they are talented but not handsome/beautiful)?
LOTS — it is SELDOM ’bout acting chops in Hollyweird, if it were, Yaphet Kotto would have been the Denzel of HIS DAY, and sistas would have been ready to throw their panties (not to mention that good stuff in ‘em) at HIM.
The issue with Bey is that she is seemingly one dimensional when singing or acting. She’s either happy or sad, angry or pleasant (or maybe vacant?). Where is the complexity? Where is the depth? An excellent study of great acting would be Meryl Streep,Thandy Newton, Sanaa Lathan, Angela B*****ett. If you want to be the best, you need to study the best. Take some cl*****es, work hard and study! Nia is right!! Bey should study if she wants 2b recognized as a great actress. This would probably help her stage performance as well.
i dont see hw beyonce fits into that statement, she didnt mention Beyonces name,
though i agree with Nia cos i only watch movies based on the actors that i do admire. Nia is a good actress
Beyonce is a good artist period and both shoiuld stick to their games
Nia Must have forgot that Beyonce has the power to SHUT her whole career DOWN!!! People need to learn to respect the Queen Bey! Bey is the shot in the arm that Hollywood needs.
Its an interesting issue…consider 2 of her 3 major roles involved a whole lot of singing, so the question would then be should a “traditional” actress have gotten those roles?
nia b and her clout is buying movie rights and she has named herself and her papa as producers and thats what money can do for you because she and her clout is *****ed of with hollywood over dream/girls so let b do what she wants to do and people you left whitney out , but right now if movies are about money then the two people thats black and hot look at tyrese and saladine the chick who played in pitares o/t/ carribbean the movie made over 600-mil and she is in s/trek and its a franchise and is well over 200mil so like i will say move over hollywood because b wants that oscar that she and her family thinks that jenn took it away from b and right now b will kill to get that oscar so shes buying a lot of the legends life stories and she is going to act the parts and produce the movies so let her and if any one mentions b name please do not answere because first of all nia you was not supposed to be on that cover b is the magazine lady they all belongs to her and this world is hers so fall back and let big b bird through.
Finally,a black woman with a m***** of basic common sense. Thank you Nia,I’ll marry you.
I really don’t think Nia is saying THAT!..but I do think she’s trying to tell Bey to get schooled b 4 she hit the screen…be professional. But it’s been happening for as long as there’s been Hollywood. Money Talks..BS walks!
First off, let me just say this…
NIA LONG (of ALL people) telling BEYONCE to stay in her lane is ridiculous.
In the entertainment industy it is an EXTREMELY UNINTELLIGENT MOVE TO STAY ONE GODDAMN LANE!
Nia Long may be an okay actress whatever, and Beyonce may not be the best actress out there,m but there is nothing wrong with trying new endeavors and trying to improve at something you may be good at. If Nia is in fact, following her own advice IT WOULD EXPLAIN WHY NO ONE HAS HEARD FROM HER ***** IN A WHILE.
Thats like telling Diddy, (when he was a dancer) to stay in his lane and not rap/sing. That’s like telling Jay-Z to “stay in his lane” and not start a clothing company/dynasty.
In short, Nia Long is a low-budget ***** who needs to stop hating and sit her ***** down. Thank you.
PoL
Nia needs to shut the hell up and try to make as many friends and connects in the industry as possible right about now b’cuz she hasn’t done any consistant screening in years. Oh and it not like she’s a great actress herself so she should shut the hell up when it comes to speaking on other ppls careers.
So shut yo ***** up girl!!!
like damn, can u say hater?? trick when’s the last time yo ***** even had a BIT role in a m/v? ho sit ur hatin ***** down!! Bey’s makin more mulah than yo black *****…needa go ***** for some roles a la Ms Milian
[...] Bossip.com » Archive Quote of the Day: Nia Long to Beyonce “Stay … [...]
Before Beyonce takes acting lessons she should do some singing lessons first…..admit it she can do the hiphop-RnB thing but true singing like she tries to get off into is NOT her thing
I love Idris Elba but I just couldn’t go see Obsessed because of Beyonce. It looked like one of those movies you wait to get thru Netflix because you are too embar*****ed to watch the film in a theatre. She is a horrible actress. This is what happens when people become really famous and the people around them (enablers) don’t tell them the truth. I bet no one in Bey’s family is brave enough to tell her about her acting.
Yes. I agree with Nia. Beyonce rules at singing and performing in “music”. No one is trying to take away what her true talent really is. I personally don’t care if I never see Bey in another movie. This is primarily because I love to hear her sing, but I hate, hate to hear her talk. If I was an actor/actress I would be bitter to with rap artist/singers being offered roles just because they are popular and people will go see them. But just to get on Nia also, I haven’t seen her put herself into a role that doesn’t require her to be pretty girl or sexy girl next door. Of course she can’t help that she is beautiful, and I guess she had to take what she is offered. There are those pheonomenal people that can do both. Jamie Fox, Will Smith,(Yeah hate on him all you like, but they are still playing his music from years ago) Mos def, Queen Latifa, (even though she doesn’t fall far from herself), Maybe Alicia Keys and Jennifer Hudson (yeah oscar, I know, but pheonomenal actress, the jury is still out).
If Nia could HOLD a NOTE she would be Siging too!! OKKAAAYYYYYY dont let her get yall TWISTED!! EVERYBODY is hate N on Beyonce what the gurl has her hands in what like 10 things!! Movies, Signing, Clothing LINE, Married to JAY, BIG tour going on , MAKE up, Hair Products… YEAH NIA you A Little SALTY!!
NIA ARE U FORREAL GIRL GIVE IT A BREAK. SEE THATS WHATS WRONG WITH PEOPLE NOW, WORRY ABOUT U AND YOUR WELL BEING. THIS WOULD BE A BETTER WORLD IF PEOPLE WORRIED ABOUT THEMSELF
Maybe Nia should stay out of the malls fighting, wasn’t it just a couple years ago, she and her boo at the time were fighting about some woman in the mall…wow. *****ody, ain’t trying to hire a hothead…get over it.
Beyonce can sing, but she can’t act. Why are people getting mad when that’s the truth.
Ummmm……………………excuse me, but why are y’all even discussing this? I mean, these ppl can do whatever they please whether it be acting or singing. Like really no one cares now days if u can act anyway. Plus, Beyonce can act it’s just that her movies suck and one more thing if actress/actors can’t find jobs that’s their problem. People have more than one talent!
The goddess has spoken!!! The Beyonce stans stomachs gotta be startin up tornados lolz
Ok …taking a deep breath … I may get banned from here ..but here I go …
Ok ..much like a person watching a train-wreck, I go to certain sites; Mto, Bossip, Perez Hlton on occasion …just to see what negativity these sites can pull down on celebrities. IO have concluded that, people patronize these sites so that they can either a) get a brief glimpse into what they THINK is their fave star’s life or b) Bring them down to their version of earth, proving to themselves that “They ain’t all that”. What all three sites have in common is …very lil actual fact is prevalent, it’s never designed to uplift the m*****es on any level, and the people that comment on them usually don’t have anything positive to say about the subject either …and uses the forum to spew their thoughts. I am just as guilty; I am here, right? We do not Hold Bossip nor MTO to a higher standard of uplifting our people at all;perhaps we as black people don’t need that from them. Perhaps all we want it a forum to vent on how black celebrities are falling, incapable, swirling,or any other of the catchy lil euphemisms we use. Lets see what I have learned from Bossip today. I have learned that Most people feel that Beyonce can’t act… Ok. Even as a fan, I’ll give you that. I also watched P.Diddy in a Rasin in the Sun; He’s not a “natural” actor, but I gave him props for tackling a cl*****ic. Beyonce is still relatively new to the acting thing; with Time she may get it. But why must a convo about her acting turn into personal attacks like ” I’ve never seen Nia do a transgender role so perhaps Bey would have her beat on that aspect.” “Get it right, Nia ain’t the w*****. Beyonce is.” Geeez …what did this woman do to any of you? Other than be the epitome of the American dream; Work hard and be successful. Don’t like her music or her acting? your perogative.

This is on point! Glad Bossip didn’t block it. Peace.
B-Stans,You say that she has the power to shut others down, it’s not power for her it’s money. One can only throw money around and block the blessings ( releases of other artist being set back or canned all together, appearences cancelled if they are on the same billing,songs and lyrics being *****ed etc.)of others for so long. What goes around comes around. She (and a few others) use cash to buy their way into projects,movies,major events,and ascsess to others who have have power. Ole girl has popped up darn near everywhere, everytime you turn around you see her and believe, me, it’s not just as if she is invited all the time. Matthew has paid her way into this business and she is picking up where he left off. She needs to save her cash because when thats gone, so is she. Folks get a few dollars and feel that they are God and think that they can do whatever for so long and it just might seem that way for a while but, while these folks sit up on their thrones all high and mighty,the enemy has been sitting there just waiting for the right time to do his thing. These hollywierd types need to wake up and get down to the basics. Oh waht happened to her being at MJ’s funeral? Oh, mabey Janet did not forget what she said.
Maybe she wasn’t just talking about Beyonce. Maybe she was talking about Janet Jackson, or Jill Scott, or Diana Ross, or Brandy, or Dorthey Dandrige, or Lena Horne, or Ella Fitzgerald, or Vanessa Williams there all singers turned actors. Yeah Singers really need to stick to singing, and actors can stick to acting.
Nia, don’t hate the player.
Hate the game. Dang, black women in hollywood go from complaining about hollywood not given them rolls to complaining about other black women. So sad.
That’s the problem with black people, they can’t stand to see a black woman or man make it. They’re to busy trying tear them down on some fake hatin ***** *****, for real! How many people on bossip can act or sing, black people always speaking on what someone else can do or can’t do. I bet you, Beyonce is a better actor, business woman, dancer, model, money earner, singer, and role model than any broke*****, gamekilling*****, hating*****, moneybashing*****, and ********** people on here hating. To nia, Get your G’s up, or keep your hatin down! Men lie, Women lie, numbers don’t 80mil in 2008 and 87mil in 2009 thats true!
PEOPLE: Movie making business is ALL about money…. NOT QUALITY!! If a singer, model, athlete, or whoever has potential to bring in box office dollars that’s who the movie execs will cast WHETHER THAT PERSON CAN ACT OR NOT. When they cast a lead, they bank on attracting that leads following. Beyonce’s following are you young fools. I personally think she’s a horrible actress, but as long as you mindless people support her movies, they will keep putting her in movies. Just sayin’

A person can be multi-talented, such as Vanessa Williams,Judy Garland,Queen Latifa,Lena Horne,Liza Minelli, etc. but THEY MAY HAVE BEEN BLESSED WITH ADDITIONAL TALENT and did the work to perfect their craft. It’s all about recognizing what you can’t do no matter how hard you try and quit while you are ahead( before you make a fool of yourself and lose respect). In the meantime , step back and let folks who know what they are doing and give us, the paying public,quality work.
LMAO @ people talking about quality entertainment but patronize Bossip.
Old School has spoken it!
I am a minority, Beyonce is a terrible singer! Why are most people saying she can sing? Seriously!
And i agree there were soooo many other “Actress” that could have played the part in Obsessed… leave the acting to the Actors and Actress
I like Nia, but come on now
This was kinda shady. Personally, I liked ‘Obsessed’ and thought Bey did an excellent job. If Beyonce wants to expand her horizons and try her hand at acting, LET her, damn!
And as for Nia, correct me if I’m wrong, but the last movie I saw her in was ‘Are We Done Yet’….moment of silence………..over. Until she comes out with something to convince me to go to the movies, as far as I care she can go somewhere with this little rant. Period.
NUFF SAID NIA!!! I HAVE BEEN SAYING THE SAME DAMN THING ABOUT B. STICK WITH SINGING AND ENTERTAINING SINCE THAT’S WHAT YOU DO BEST I WILL GIVE YOU PROPS ON THAT B WILL NEVER WIN AN OSCAR SO HANG IT UP! NOT HATING JUST KEEPIN IT REAL!
Nia is 100% right. Leave the acting to the professionals. Beyonce can sing and that’s what she should do. If she wants to act, she should take acting lessons. Not one or two but study for a whole year before stepping into roles too big for her which happen to be most of the roles she’s done so far. Bey is from the school of ” I want it now because I have the clout and money to buy my way into it”. She thinks she’s gonna learn as she goes along. I wish these casting agents and directors would just tell her “no” and send her on her way but money talks and box office is king while art and craft take a back seat once again.

who can Blame Beyonce. she has the chance to make big money acting why should she turn it down? it’s not like she’s ruining anyone’s Oscar chances by being in the lame mmovies she’s in
Beyonce PRODUCED the movie. So not only did she star in it, she put her money where her mouth is. If Nia can’t produce her own staring vehicle, then she needs to just be quiet and shut the hell up. Stop hating on Beyonce!
Hollywood is,was and will forever will be about one thing:MONEY! Nia Long is a good actress. Beyonce by all accounts is not. The truth of the matter is this,Nia Long’s name on the marquee is not worth as much as Beyonce’s and as messed up as that may sound,is how the business works people. Truth be told,Dreamgirls would not have ever made it to the screen ,if Beyonce was not attached to the project. Having a name on the marquee that puts *****es in the seats is how movies get made. As good as Nia Long is,she does not now nor has she ever put *****es in the seats. I agree with her *****essment overall,but she knows how the game is played. Diana Ross was never a strong actress,but when her movies were an event when they came out because she was a superstar. The talent pool has been so badly diluted now days,so its hard too compare performers today with performers from back then,but the same formula is at work and will always be.
I DONT SEE ANYTHING WRONG WITH BEYONCE ACTING.
——{—–@
Wow sorry Nia cant sing. I dont believe one should ever limit what they try to do.Whoever said a singer only should sing and actress should only act. How wack would that be. Who else could have played and sang a great Etta “Nia” NO. Obsessed was off the hook can’t wait for it to come out on video a def. buy. Would the movie done as well with anyone else. This is business sh*t. Can’t stand people who just dont do them.
Bossip is mucky for only posting a section of her comments on the issue. Nia is just mad that her jobs are being taken by bankable actresses instead of washed up actresses like herself. Nia is at best, an okay actress. Never going to win an Oscar, so therefore she is on the same level as Beyonce. Even worse because Nia only acts in Black-casting movies. Beyonce has stepped over onto the big screen. So don’t hate Nia, just appreciate, especially when it is an ethnic minority female. Nia should be happy and give praise to her colleagues
Bey didn’t take any roles from NIa. Beyonce produced the last two movies. It was her own money now what she shouldve done was cast professionals instead of herself. I think Nia long is speaking the truth but she didn’t say it the way the media is about to run with it.
Beyonce had to buy a movie and cast herself pathetic sit it down somewhere.
People are callin Nia and black actresses who say the same things haters, well they have a legitimate reason to hate, it is difficulte in Hollywood (TV or Cinema) to be a black actor or actress, they really strugle to get good roles etc… just imagines for a second that girls like Nia, Sanaah, Vivica, Gabrielle etc.. where white, they would already have had great career in TV or Cinema but now they have to fight against Girls like Bey with absolutely no real talent but yeah a name that feels great box office numbers…
Thanks for nia for coming out…
BEY ROCKED THAT MOVIE AND NIA DID’NT MENTION BEYONCE.NIA I LOVE HER AND WOULD PAY 2 DUB SACKS TO EAT HER.
Nia is just mad b’cuz ain’t *****ody checkin’ for her… salty @ss broad with a played out hair style. smh…tsk tsk tsk!
@ T
I agree with some of the things that u said, but don’t forget if the title of your movie is offensive with such name like “I’M THROUGH WITH WHITE GIRLS” of course only few people’s gonna want to see it, and me 1st.
The industry wants to make money, and with such title only a group of people is going to be targeted( who actually would bootleg the movie), and they don’t want that…if u have beautiful story, u also need something that is gonna catch the audience attention 2

Preach Nia!
Not everyone can do everything…Sometimes you have to know your limitations and stick to what you do best…There is nothing wrong with broadening your horizons or branching out into something new…But have some respect for the art and don’t just *****ume that you will be great because your stans will flood the market for anything that you do…True star power is about more than just being able to put *****es in the seats….It’s hard in Hollywood for all actresses but especially black actresses so for someone who has zero acting ability to come along and not only cast herself in the lead roles but do a poor job at it is very disheartening for real black women with true acting talent…Bravo Nia!!!!
LOL people make me laugh, nia long was like the halle berry of the 90’s, yea beyonce movies may get more money, but natural talent that goes to Nia. So check this out…..http://blogs.bet.com/entertainment/whattheflick/top-black-actresses-of-all-time/
AMEN!!!!!
AMEN!!!!!
You know if Beyonce was even close to being a good actress then maybe Nia and others wouldn’t make these comments about non acting folk like her! But she’s not even close to being a good actress and that’s what makes other actresses so angry!
One thing I can say about the black actresses in Hollywood – they do have each other’s backs for the most part and they CELEBRATE each other’s accomplishments. (Angela B*****ett did hate on Halle when she won the Oscar for Monsters Ball though, lol!)I think people would be more supportive of Beyonce if she took acting seriously and truly studied the craft. Blank stares and forcing out tears isn’t gonna cut it boo!
No matter how hard Beyonce tries, and I’m not even sure if she even tries at all, she cannot get rid of that ghetto, country t*****! She has horrible diction and enunciation. Every role she does she finds a way to make herself sound ghetto. It’s so irritating! That’s something you have to practice and study hard to change about yourself. All of her energy is in her touring and music. Until she’s ready to take a break from music and totally commit herself to learning and studying the art of acting she needs to LEAVE THE ACTING TO THE PROFESSIONALS!
Nia, dont be a hater because you are washed up……..who is checking for Nia besides Pride Magazine in 2009….ha
bEYONCE COULDN’T PLAY DEAD!!!
Beyonce is a great entertainer, singer, dancer. I will give her that 100%!!! But an actress she is NOT!!! I’m sorry stans, this has been proven time after time in her box office sells…
NIA was on point about that she needs to stick to what made her famous in the first place…
Bey you the greatest!!!
Bey should become a role model by going back to school since she has the money. Show that it’s never too late to get an education because everytime she opens her mouth to speak I’m sure all of the ‘actors’ and entertainers are cracking up behind her back. Who the hell would be jealous! Nia is the only one who had the nerve to actually say what they are ALL thinking!
thats so true. Doesn’t Nia have a resemblance to Ola Ray the model from Michael Jackson’n Thriller video
lol at broke *****s telling Bey she needs an education
Sounds like sour grapes. While I can agree that acting isn’t Bey’s strong suit, it would have more credibility coming from an actress who has been doing something with her craft lately. Quite frankly, she sounds jealous that Bey is getting roles and she is not.
i feel Nia…Nia was there with will smith on fresh prince and played at damn good role in that as well..but where was bey then..not acting but singing..Nia long is one of the first leading black actress ,besides Halle,Jada,and a select few that mad a name for themselves when hollywood would only cater to mostly white actors/actress….
That throw back B*&%H need to fall back off Bey!!!
Why is it up to her Nia to keep Bey in a box of just singing??? She must’ve seen some movie or another with Bey in it to make claims that she cant act. When she debut her “acting skills” in her 1st major flick, I’m sure it wasn’t her best, and nor was she a master at it. Nia mad cause she cant sing, and nor can she pull in Millions like 27yr old Beyonce can. It must not have been too bad of acting for Bey, the chick got a part 2 coming in the near future for her last movie. So lets say Nia wanted to earn cash outside of acting, what else could she do??? Did Hollywood even call her for auditions for the role that Beyonce got? Okay then, she get a “HO SIT DOWN” FROM ME!!! Typical jealous black tired female hating on another black RICH female.
What Beyonce needs to do with that money is take speech cl*****es for acting. It’s annoying to listen to her country accent. When she talks it’s like she is talking with food in her mouth. Or it just sounds like I’m drowing. I rather listen to her sing than pretend to act.
Nia is right and she is being nice by suggesting acting cl*****es.
No amont of acting cl*****es is going to help beyonce….this one area where she is talent deficient.
Cher and Janet are the only other top entertainers who can act in addition to performing.
i agree with 954alllday.. its not Beyonces fault shes the one who white Hollywood is checking for..shes beautiful and talented and is a good actress.. the difference between Nia and Beyonce is #1, Beyonce is younger and in Hollywood that matters!!! Nia who is also a good actress has not chosen any good movie roles which is her fault.. the last movie shes has done is are we there yet ? and last time i checked her performance in that movie wasn’t profound or moving!!!!!it was a kiddie movie .. in HollyWood its all about $$$$$$$$ white people love Beyonce and will always hire her for whatever there releasing because shes the “one” for them!!!! Beyonce learned early on how to go around white folks to make her money good for her!!!!Beyonce is bankable and they know she will always bring in the big bucks period.. they are making a ton of money off of her and her “look” is what they like which is not her fault!!!! its not her fault shes the “chosen one”!!!! Beyonce works hard as hell and has earned the right to act sing and dance if shes chooses too.. she doesn’t have to stick with doing one thing when she went to a performance arts HS to hone her craft .. as time goes on she’ll become a much more seasoned actress .. Nia needs to concentrate on being more selective about what movie roles she accepts and stop blaming Beyonce for her lack of career!!! she had her time in the 90’s its now a new time.. Nia wouldn’t like it if someone said shes older now so maybe she should give up acting and step aside for the “younger” up-coming actresses.. Nia is almost 40 and Beyonce is 27 going on 28 and that’s a hell of a difference in Hollywood!!!!!Nia doesn’t look a day over 28 herself but Beyonce is much younger and is married to one of the most successful rappers of all time and that is $$$$$$ + power a deadly combo!!!!! just like Will smith who at first was a rapper then he tried acting and never looked back and hes a much better actor than rapper.look at how much hes grown as an actor remember he was “Will smith of the tv show the fresh prince he was goofy and funny but when you see him in movies i don’t see “the Fresh prince” that’s called GOD given talent but also as time went on he became more seasoned now he’s up there with DEnzel Will earned it and now makes the same amount of money as DEnzel they both make 20 mill a pic. what if he never gave acting a try we would have never seen just how talented fabulous and extraordinary of an actor he is, he has made some of the best movies in Hollywood so Nia should stop making up excuse as to why shes no longer being checked for plus she took time off to have a kid by a no-good college educated man who i believe was a banker but he was no good and shes now a unwed single parent.. if she never would have taken time off while she was still relevant and sought after her career would still be on track those yrs off allowed younger talents to slip in and take her spot why do you think Beyonce works so hard shes not going to allow anyone to take her spot shes earned it and will give up her spot when shes accomplished all shes wanted then and only then will she give up her spot but not a day before she chooses too.. lighting had struck Nia’s spot and she should have taken advantage of it but she took 4 or 5 yrs off and then a ton of up-coming much younger new actresses came on the scene and now shes irrelevant and on a long list of struggling black actresses in Hollywood with exceptions of Queen Latifah and a few others.. they are who Hollywood has chosen sometimes that’s the way the ball bounces.. we all see how hard Gabrielle Union works and she still has a smoking hot career + still relevant actress in Hollywood. Nia should stop complaining and get herself together and go back out there and chose much better roles for herself.. if her career is dim it isn’t because of Beyonce its called THE TIME HAS AND WILL CONTINUE TO CHANGE, ONE MINUTE YOUR HOT THE NEXT MINUTE YOUR NOT!!!!!not Beyonce’s fault!!!!! BEYONCE HAS IT ALL LOOKS BODY TALENT and a WORK ETHIC that no other female in music can match!!!! can sing dance and act she also writes and reads music she’s more than a triple threat!!! all Nia could do is act not sing nor dance so is that Beyonce’s fault? NO!!! BEYONCE is Multi-talented while Nia has one talent – acting that’s it.. sounds like Beyonce would be the better choice to choose for a movie because Beyonce SELLS!! which means more money!!! more money!!!
OMG! that’s f*cked up! I saw obsessed and I thought she did alright, why are people always Hatin’ on Bey!? she’s beautiful,smart,and very talented and has a great Man by her side, what more could u ask for?! I really like her. stop Hatin’ so damn much! and by the way Beyonce is known around the globe Nia Long is only known where, maybe in the USA! so what that tells u beyonce has brought alot of money here and by the looks of it she will continue too! so I say…GO! Bey!
Beyonce can do what the hell she wants. Nia better calm down.
don’t get me wrong i love Nia to but she should worry more about her plummeting career than try to hate on Beyonce.
Beyonce hatas need to get a life they can’t stand to see someone doin good.
everybody always hatin on Bey!!!!!
I suggest you start makin more movies and stop jockin Bey. it not like you won a Oscar and got the nerve to tell her stay in her lane and take acting cl*****es, her acting is improving every time she stars in a movie!!!!!
Opinions are likes anuses everybody has one most of them stink, she could have really kept this comment a little more discrete and put emphasis on an individual celeb she said, “lets not name names” but its obvious who she was referring to BEE is not the best actress I have seen but she is pretty damn good Nia Long is not bad either but everyone has to start somewhere there is a such thing as an individual being multi talented so to ask someone with more than one talent to stay in there lane is a hindering request, she is just flustered because she didn’t get the part, get over it and have of you know nothing about talent!! And by the way to the person who said she did not research before doing Cadillac Records needs to shut the ***** up and do some research because she did extensive research on her character, quit hating a bunch of nothing ***** individuals tryna throw salt on the next person!!!
Thats true, and I respect Nia for sayin that…Sh** maybe she should drop an album on Bey!!! Two can play that game!!..lol..
that movie was so boring..BEY is the worst actress ever, she needs to stay singing ONLY
She cute
@ Keepit100
She did some research. She went a spoke to drug addicts. That’s fine. But I think it would have been better if she would have actually spoken to Etta James! I think that makes more sense.
WOW,AND WE HATE AGAIN ON BEYONCE’,FIRST OF ALL BEY IS A TRIPLE THREAT AND PEOPLE JUST MAD CAUSE SHE TAKING OVA,AND AS FAR AS OBSESSED GOES HER AND HER DAD PRODUCED THAT MOVIE SHE CANT HELP IT IF THEY PICK HER FOR THE ROLES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! NIA LONG NEEDS TO SIT HER OLD ***** DOWN LOOKING LIKE HER FACE IS ABOUT TO CRACK,,,,LOL MAYBE IF SHE STOP HATEN SHE WILL GET SOME ROLES!!!!
Anyone who knows me will know i’m the biggest beyonce fan but i can admit that she is way more talented at performing than she is at acting… that is where her true gifts lie and i can understand how it can be annoying to actressses like NIa whohav worked hard lives to hone their skills only for some1 less able but with a bigger ‘name’ to come along and grab their big bucks.
Beyonce has been quoted to say even before dreamgirls that by the age of 30 she wants to have an oscar, whilst this may seem just ambitious to some, it proves that she does just want annother great medal on her mantlepiece. She didnt say, ‘i want to have played a really good role’ or ‘performed in a touching film’, for her its all about being the best at everything because thats all she knows and the way she is being pushed by her management
I agree with whoever said we all are multi-talented and should be allowed to develop all our gifts, but the best vet in the world would not be allowed to represent someone in court as their lawyer just because he was the best at being a vet, and its the same thing, with B no1 sees how unjust it is that she given, (and doesnt truly earn) the big roles purely because is one the best in hollywood at the momemt at performing.
Nia has every right to feel angry, however if she did say it the way it has been quoted then i feel she has been a little tactless as she is publicly dissing another artist and simultaneouly making herself look jealous and immature. Just because we feel a certain way doesnt mean we should alwaays act on it especially if you know its gonna hurt some1s feeling, thats not gonna get her anywhere
Nia is a great actress in my opinion and she basically said, “develop your craft if you’re going to both (act and sing). I love Beyonce too,
but in my opinion, She does needs to develop her craft more in the acting department.
…from the comments here and from what I’ve heard on the street…Nia basically said what alot of people are saying.
I’m sure B knows that, but if you wanted to be an actess and were offered a brilliant role, yo wouldnt say thanks but no thanks cos i wanna develop my craft first! Nia is right, but its the industry that is wrong, not B and others in her position for taking up the roles they are given, it is unfair but its their fault and if NIa was gonna say something she should hV attacking the way the industry is not specific artists
who cares what nia long has to say. beyonces acting skills my not be the best like halle berry or who ever but she is multi talented. dont hate jus because bey can sing, dance,and design clothes. bey doesnt need haters like nia long.she needs supporters. thats dirty.thats not w*****upp. peace
I definitely understand where Nia is coming from and I agree with some people up there. Here lately, Miss “Sasha Fierce” has been getting put on a high ***** pedestal like she’s some type of Magic Force and *****. She has made some hit songs give her props for that and she is a good singer and dancer but you can’t just go booty-shaking and jyrating into the acting world and not even know how to really throw it down. Nia Long is actually UNDER RATED as far as a young, sexy, black actress goes. She’s still very attractive, has cl*****, and has put in a LOT MORE WORK than what Beyonce has as far as acting is concerned. And she really hasn’t gotten the shine she deserves for it. I’m not saying that Beyonce can’t act, but she can’t go around thinking since she’s this much-adored celebrity that she can just pop her ***** and do all those wild c*****ography moves and score a leading role in a film more suited for a more experienced actress. Nia has been doing her thing since Boyz N The Hood and maybe before that so I understand why she’s making a comment on it. True talent doesn’t get their due recognition because they got people who become big in the MUSIC WORLD *****ing up parts that they don’t even have the experience for. I don’t think Nia is hating on Beyonce, I mean compared to Nia, Beyonce is nothing to hate on. Because Nia is above Beyonce’s level, she will always be. Because Nia came before Beyonce. So I know there’s no sweat coming off of Nia’s forehead over her. She’s just stating her opinion, well actually a VERY GOOD OPINION and it’s alright.
The bottom line is movies are created to entertain the viewing audience. No matter if it is the big screen, broadway or cable television. Actors bring life to the characters they play. The writers/directors/producers intent is to take the viewer on a journey no matter the genre i.e. horror, drama or action etc…Nia makes a valid point she is trained to capture your attention by connecting you, the viewer, to her character and the movie. Beyonce can not do that, that is the plain truth. She should leave it for those who do it well.Beyonce has vocals out of this world,(sing ing) but acting is just like her cooking…she can’t do that either. Even her Covergirl commercials are monotonous. I am not a hater, I like some of Beyonce’s music. But I am a student focusing on screenwrting and I understand that an inexperienced actor can make or break a really good script. So I agree, Nia is not hating just keeping it real. The future of the Big Screen depends on it!
I TOTALLY AGREE!
THIS IS A SKILL YOU MUST LEARN THEY THINK THEY HOT 2 TROT AND TRY TO RIDE THE COAT TAILS OF FAME TO SECURE FILM ROLES…
MARK THESE WORDS BEYONCE WILL NEVER AND I MEAN NEVER WIN THAT OSCAR….. YOU DON’T BELIEVE ME?
HOLD UR BREATH AND SEE HOW LONG U HAVE TO HOLD IT
I have no idea why people keep on taking up for Bey? She cant act at all we all know that. People are so quick to worship folks they dont know. Bey dont care bout no one but Bey. She gonna take ur money and put it in her pocket and not give a darn about ur devation to her. She dont care. She got the big heads and i am glad nia called her out on her so called acting. Its terrible and so is her latest cd its a hot mess. Why dont you guys go wash her panties for her no acting screaming on track self
Wow.
Nia Long sounds really dumb because what she needed to think about before she said this b.s. was who was the producer who gave her her roles in the last two movies she was in. ICE CUBE!! Ice Cube was a rapper turned actor turned producer!!
What Nia Long is most definitely doing is hating on Beyonce. Why I say that?? Because for one, there are other actors and actresses who are singers and rappers that act….but she only speaks directly towards Beyonce. NIA LONG PLEASE!!
Your beautiful and all….and are most definitely a great actress, but c’mon now: DON’T HATE ON THIS OTHER BLACK WOMAN DOING HER THING AND SHE’S DOING IT WELL.
Think!!
Betta hope Ice Cube give u another leading role after this one. lolz
Beyonce did a good job in “Obsessed”, and this is the first movie which Beyonce’s portraying the main character, you know what, does anybody can do the best-est, and act better than an actress who acts for more than 10 years in his or her first time? I don’t think Nia did this. If Beyonce doesn’t did as good as you expected, had you ever think of where’s your expectation reached and will you reach your expectation if you were the main character in the film? “If you’re a singer, not an actress, you should sing”, Nia said. That’s too over, how could she said that? Why can’t Beyonce just sings and acts? She can designs, sings, writes, dances, and she just can’t acts?! That was the most ridiculous thing I had ever heard before, and Nia sure fooled us.
I have to agree with Nia, I don’t like B as an actress in a leading role, she seems to fake and not sure of herself. She needs a great deal of acting cl*****es for the next 3 yrs she needs to focus on cl*****es. what was the movie Kingdom come with Cuba Gooding Jr when Faith played his mother…she sucked big time cornie *****. Shoot Fairth’s little part was better acted then B’s part. Dream girls we all know who stole the show… cause B sucked Jeniffer even out sang her so and she deserved the award… B was hating that night for sure. Hey B needs to perhaps settle down for a couple of yrs and give the love of her life some babies I mean he is getting older and I know he wants to be able to help his kids with homework and all.
If she told Beyonce first then it got to the press cool. But talking s*&t behind someones back is not right Then if you are someone famous,role model…..come on. I tried of black on black hate. Man I’m an artist who lives over seas…..and you know it breaks my heart to see it! If we are to overcome…..lets break the chains of hate…..! Peace

Bey keep your heels on & keep shaking that *****, but acting NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO leave it to Nia, Taraje, Halle, & the rest of the MOVIE STARS.. YOU NEED TO CONTINUE SINGING & TRYING TO BE A WIFE & HAVE SOME BABIES. LOL,LMAO! 1 person cant do everything & thats the truth.
To all u losers callin Nia a hater she’s not hatin she’s absolutely correct!!! Bey CAN”T ACT!!!!!!!!!!!!! She should stick to singing & shakin her *****!!!
Nia aint a hater. yall are the stupid haters. Talking about beyonce can’t sing oh yeah so all those albums just bought themselves hypocrites. NIA is a good actress and if she ain’t threatened she’ll be up there working her butt off with no time to comment about anybody..Beyonce aint begging attention she just gets it and where is the rule book that says singers should stay off the stage or vice versa? tell it to Tyler Perry’s cast.kmft
