Come on people
« on: October 29, 2013, 04:28:57 AM »
The former DWTS dancer and now singer and movie star cuttie Julianne Hough is being jump on pretty hard about her Halloween costume she wore to a party a few days ago. I think it's ridiculous, what's your opinion?

There is no excuse for blackface in this day and age. I don't care if you are some homeschooled white chickenhead from Utah, you should know better. If you know about the history of blackface then you would know this is a very derogatory and insulting thing to people of color. People get angry about this for good reason.

It's the people who don't see the issue with this that have the problem.

+1 Retro. Just looks likes she spent some time in the tanning booth or used some self tanning lotion or spray.

As a example of a blackface here is a pic of Al Jolson ( I know everybody has heard of him) a actor from many years ago with and without his stage make up on. Degrading very, but any resemblance to Julianne's Halloween get up ???

+ another 1. She may have watched a rerun of that Friends episode where Ross screwed up the tanning spray.

I don't quite grasp what I should lighten up about.
Racism and racist behavior should not be tolerated just because some cute white Moreman chick supposedly didn't know any better because she was a homeschooled halfwit.
It is not an excuse, ever.

IT wasn't blackface in the generic sense which would be racsist. She was imitating the character "crazy eyes" in "Orange is the new black" (black in terms of clothing not skin color, that's just a coincidence.)

If you've ever seen the show, you'd say, maybe OK.

Still it was poor taste, how many people would know?,  and when another (thousands) choice exists, why not go another way?

And +1 to Demon's point.

I'd say she was fair game to be a Halloween costume.  Same as Obama. Fair game, but requires tinting to pull it off.

AS they say, any publicity is good publicity. "Crazy Eyes" is now known to many more people than before Julianne did it.

I have no issue with it. When I look at her it does not make me think of the original " black face" Hell I thought she had dressed up as an oompa loompa. I guess I am sheltered too.



quick, get this b[tch, she's doing black face.

Probably everybody at the party JH went to, knew what she was doing. Probably paparazzi and outsiders took it and ran with the PC crap.

Putting racist labels on similar tabloid-like-things-and-events is really a disgrace to victims of real racism crimes such as holocaust.
