Beyonce was denied at the Golden Globes this week and Papa Knowles is not happy about it. After the show ended, Beyonce’s daddy told reporters his daughter had been “overlooked” and “outcasted” by a “good old boy system.” “Today is MLK’s birthday and it saddens me to say that things have not changed for blacks. Working class blacks and blacks in Hollywood are still being discriminated against. We still have a long way to go,” he said.” Maybe the guy was so absorbed in rehearsing his Johnny Cochran tirade to explain why his overly publicized little girl didn’t win that he missed Jennifer Hudson, Eddie Murphy and Forest Whitaker all taking home those pretty trophies. Or maybe he just overlooked the fact that all three of those actors are (wait for it) black. I’ll bet Papa Knowles started his “vote for Beyonce” campaign for the Academy Awards before he even finished his free chicken dinner at the Globes. And I’m sure that won’t get annoying over the next few weeks. |
