      Finally. About time people recognize the hatred against homosexuality. People don't realize how fucking hurtful it is to be hated for something a person can't help. We don't have an agenda to break up straight marriages, nor do we plan on attacking anyone with our gayness. We just want to be treated as people and not pests.
      Needless to say, this sow is fucking amazing.

    Overall, that show is fuckin GREAT and the ACTING if OFF THE CHARTS

    • @jcdoakes
      @jcdoakes 9 ปีที่แล้ว +13

      Lee Daniels stated in an interview that this scene happened to him when he was little. When they were filming he stated he had to look away... I think it was kinda therapeutic for him.

    Wendy was totally out of line with her "Bye, Phylicia", regarding Phylicia Rashad's recent defense of Dr. Cosby. Ms. Rashad was misquoted, as stated by Roger Friedman & Ms. Rashad herself. She was simply expressing her overall view of the situation & supporting Dr. Cosby - a man who she has known (on and off screen) for more than 30yrs. Ms. Rashad is an immensely talented, well-respected woman of substance and an ICON. To dismiss her is beyond disrespectful and shows Wendy's inability to show neutrality. Ms. Rashad is the latest in a long list of black luminaries Wendy has disrespected. She has done the same to Oprah, Janet Jackson and Whitney Houston; only to turn around a breakdown over the passing of Ms. Houston. I would advise Wendy to watch herself. She has way too many skeletons in that closet of hers to throw stones at people who helped pave the way for her to even have a talk show. So, while she's saying #ByePhylicia, I'm saying #ByeWendy!

    • @kayla444
      @kayla444 9 ปีที่แล้ว +10

      You need to chill. 'Bye Felicia' is an expression commonly used especially amongst black people. It started because of the film 'Friday' so relax.

    • @Broughton1128
      @Broughton1128 9 ปีที่แล้ว +42

      You are the one who needs to "chill". I'm well-aware of the origin of the phrase. And, the Felicia character in the film was a crackhead, was she not? I am an Entertainment Attorney and personal friend of Ms. Rashad. The manner/context in which Wendy used the colloquial phrase was dismissive & disrespectful. Ms. Rashad was coming from a sincere place, while Wendy was being her usual [brash] self. If you saw/see it differently, fine. But don't tell me to "chill" or "relax". I said what I said and I meant it. Good day.

    • @RyanGarloff
      @RyanGarloff 9 ปีที่แล้ว +18

      Why are you writing this on a video of Taraji's interview?...

    • @Broughton1128
      @Broughton1128 9 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      I concur. Wendy has an axe to grind, because Dr. Cosby admonished her years ago (during her radio days) for attempting to sully his name. So she doesn't want to hear anyone supporting him; yet, a few weeks ago she asked "Why haven't any of Dr. Cosby's former co-stars come to his defense?" The moment they do, she dismisses them. Wendy is disrespectful, beyond messy, and a hypocrite.

    • @ohwhale.
      @ohwhale. 9 ปีที่แล้ว +9

      Phylicia was also dismissive of the women who have accused Cosby of rape. She was misquoted, but what she did say for a fact was, "This is not about those women. This is about Bill Cosby." That was such a dismissive and callous remark so it's only right that Wendy dismissed Ms. Rashad's comments.

    I've tended to court women. Met a lovely black woman in 1989, took her out to a fine dining restaurant with good live dance music. We ate we dance. We went home and [redacted]. We moved in together less than a week later and got married less than two years later. Still married, still go out for nice meals, and we have liked Taraji Henson as an actress for many years -- and started following her heavily on 'Person of Interest,' in basically non-sexual role.

      *****
      That`s all true. I guess the problem is the lack of self worth in most women. Men can get the goods so easily without having to put in any work in most cases so just settle for the easy targets rather than putting in work for those who prefer to wait. It`s not fair!

      ***** I get where you are coming from. Trust me, I know some women so lonely that they will settle for anyone that comes their way. Its just a sad cycle.

    I just adore Taraji Henson. I love the show too. She is right...it does happen to innocent little boys every day who are just expressing themselves. She makes Cookie and no other actress could bring what she does to that character.

      Seriously! Like they most likely sent her a copy of the first episode a week ago and she probably made her staffers watch it, and explain it to her in the morning. Yet she still fucked it all up.
