Raise your arms if your sure

While Beyonce is making the 'rounds around the world' for the separate premieres of Dreamgirls her father is pulling the race card to explain why his daughter didn't take home an award during the Golden Globes, Starpulse reports:
Beyoncé Knowles’ father Mathew is furious the superstar was overlooked at the Golden Globe Awards, accusing the film industry of discriminating against blacks. The singer-turned-actress failed to pick up a single nomination for her role in Dreamgirls, and - despite Golden Globe wins for African-Americans Forest Whitaker, Eddie Murphy, Prince, Jennifer Hudson and the movie itself - Knowles blames his daughter’s omission on racism. He told reporters after the ceremony on Monday, “Today is MLK’s (Martin Luther King’s) birthday and it saddens me to say that things have not changed for blacks. Working class blacks and blacks in Hollywood are still being discriminated against. We still have a long way to go.”
So losing out to Prince is racist? Jennifer Hudson, Eddie Murphy, and Forest Whitaker taking home awards is racist? Dude, if you are going to pull the race card at least do a little research beforehand. Her father needs keep his mouth shut or he may soon be kicked off the 'gravy train.'

Maybe what Pappy Pimp Knowles really wanted to say was "how dare these people not pick my light skinned cash cow daughter" because she's so superior to everyone else because she's got a spray on tan. For the love of God, and country, STFU Man!


I heard both Beyonce and Chris Brown are no longer under her dad's management as of a few days ago.


O-v-e-r-a-t-e-d! Overated.
