I think green can be a particularly terrible hair color choice.

A few years back, there was a male rapper at the VMAs who dyed his hair green. Except he had very short hair, so it looked like he had algae on his head.

Not long after, Billie E dyed half her hair the same green color. It looked like a plant was sprouting from her scalp.

Cheesy and waaaaay overhyped. The "music" gives me a headache.

I feel like we are supposed to publicly celebrate that white historical figures were made into black characters, but it seems disingenuous to change these people in this way. And people would be screaming if this was done the other way. It’s just kind of stupid and overwrought.

Which white historical figures are you talking about?

Umm Alexander Hamilton for one.

What about the biblical movies that have been made over the years? Were people from the middle east, people with light brown skin have been played by white people over the years? I've seen movies were white people have played Native Americans? Did that bother you too?

Sorry, but that’s different than a 21st century musical in which white characters are played by black actors.

No, but it bothered me that Rita Moreno, who is one of the least Italian looking actresses out there, played an Italian woman in The Four Seasons, but then decried that white actors played Puerto Ricans in the original West Side Story movie.

Counterpoint: I love unnaturally colored hair! I love creative and colorful people. The world would be a lot more boring without them.

DP. I'm tired of "creatives" trying to broadcast their creativity by dyeing their hair green, wearing nothing but pasties up top, or whatever. How about showing us your creativity through your actual art, music, or photography?

They can express themselves through all of those things and also how they choose to dress or style themselves. Why do you feel like people are required to live within the bounds of what some random stranger is “tired of”?
