[Freeman]

Yeah she looks crazy. No wonder they not trying to pay her.

Like good God.

 

[Chi-Town B]

I said it 2-3 times in this thread. She's had work done on her grill (and it looks like she's had titties put in a while back), now she's borderline alien lookin.

That's just some responses from the first 2 pages of a 38 page thread.

I SAID WHAT THE FUCK I SAID

 

[Sky Davis]

lol fuck Zoe man like you know and I know she not a better actress.

I’m not saying she’s better

I’m saying she has a greater case of being paid more

 

[Sky Davis]

Eww a real estate scam era breakfast club interview

 

[🌊City]

I’m not saying she’s better

I’m saying she has a greater case of being paid more

Is there a cap on how many ppl can be paid more?

They not drawing from the same well at all so why does Zoe case matter to Taraji's?

my whole thing is TPH is acting like she’s a big star draw to command more money

Me bringing up saldana is someone used in an example of someone who has a better case of getting more money if she was to say she was underpaid

TPH is lower on the totem pole

This is like if Steve Harris said he was underpaid and I used Idris Elba as an example for him

Lol why am I in it

My point stood then and it stands now. If you're a black woman, the default is to undermine and disrespect you across industry. We all know that for a fact. Taraji being tired of it is completely understandable but, unfortunately, if you plan on keeping a career in entertainment, the Ls and disrespect aren't gonna stop just cuz you "made it."

Shit they might play with you even more after you make it.

I was just trying to illustrate the difference in general energy given to Monique vs taraji since people were getting upset with a perceived lack of empathy.

Wasn't meant to be critical of yours or anyone elses posts directly was just pointing out the reception to both of them complaining about the same things respectively was very different since now all of a sudden niggas want to cosplay as empathetic.
