[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So now people are deep diving into Colleen Hoover lol. She started a charity that is now defunct, but 11% of the proceeds raised went to actual charity.

Also, she bought a lot of books for the charity, special editions, but a lot went was her own stuff.

In other words, it was a complete disaster and seems unethical

Of course they are, because she doesn't like Justin because of his behavior at that dinner where he was trying to get her on his side.[/quote]

I find it crazy that people think all of these people organically liked Blake more than Justin. People fawn over celebrity and power b/c they’re hoping it will benefit them, then like we saw with Sony they privately say how they really feel. It’s honestly not that hard to understand. The idea that the entire cast just organically turned against Justin is completely unhinged from reality.

Also Blake is simply not beating those racism allegations. She cozied up to everyone on the cast except the people of color: Justin (who she clearly sees as middle eastern given the Aladdin gif), Jamey and Hasan Minhaj (who was like I have no clue what’s going on). [/quote]

I agree with you - very well said.

A site I love pointed out that Blake Lively said (African-American) Jamey Heath was “treating the set like a BBQ” in a text.
I really loathe her. I’ll leave it there.[/quote]

WOW. How is anyone still defending this woman!![/quote]

NP but I don't get what the issue is here with this statement. This is an expression that isn't uncommon for when something is more casual than it should be.  A BBQ is a casual get together - so treating the set like its a BBQ to me says, it is too casual and not professional enough. I don't get what the other meaning of it is that you are offended by. [/quote]

NP, if it were a one off, perhaps. But pair that with calling Baldoni Aladdin, getting married on a plantation and setting up dinner next to slave cabins (which you can see in the pictures), a lifestyle company romanticizing the antebellum south, wearing blackface and an Afro, and just generally how Blake moves. BBQ is triggering OP in the same way watermelon or fried chicken would. These are things are big in black culture. There’s even a movie called the cookout. With Blake’s history, the presumption is she’s using it pejoratively. B/c of her problematic past, she’s not given the benefit of the doubt. Can’t say I blame OP for seeing sinister intent in the comment. [/quote]

Who cares? Jamey Heath is a creepy pervo weirdo. Nobody should invite him to a bbq.[/quote]

I just explains to you why some might be offended by Blake’s comment and this is your response? Disgusting. Guess this is Trump’s America.[/quote]
