This former A+ list singer/former reality star would like to work with someone bigger than she is right now because it is the only way she will get a label to pay for studio time. Big flops and a high drug bill do not make labels happy.

I will say, whatever Jussie is going through that brought him to that, I wish the best for him. I feel bad for him that he likely just committed career suicide.

What he did was unequivocally wrong and stupid and etc., but I have such sympathy for his level of desperation.

I wish him the best, but I don’t feel bad for him. I feel very strongly about how his actions are going to fuel the fire that is racism. I feel bad for real victims whose real hate crimes are going to be questioned bc this Schmuck thought he should get paid more. There are much better ways to negotiate a raise.

I feel bad for real victims whose real hate crimes are going to be questioned bc this Schmuck thought he should get paid more. There are much better ways to negotiate a raise. I saw a viral video yesterday about a gay woman who is a waitress and received a note on a customer's receipt that said, "I don't tip fags." I have some very distant connections to the waitress and know it to be sincere. There were already comments comparing it to Jussie's case and asking if she didn't just write it herself. I am with you.

I just can’t think it’s all raise-related. Like, you have to be kinda not well to think this is an ok idea.

Faking a hate crime should have the same criminal consequences of a hate crime. You made it 100% harder for the real victims of hate crimes to report.

Knew I had seen Jurnee Smollett-Bell in something random before. She was on an episode of House.
Sorry, carry on.

The next casting for this UK reality show is going to be huge. Literally a thousand women want to be a part of it because the female stars of the tropical sounding show are the most requested celebrities for yachting and they charge four or five times what every other reality star can charge.

I think I’m sympathetic to people ruining their lives. Like when some video goes viral of someone being wasted on a plane or fighting on the street, I think they’re an asshole but I’m also sympathetic that for the rest of their life, when you google them, some moment in time will follow them. It doesn’t mean I think they’re right or should be forgiven. Just, coming from years of really bad decisions, I’m SO thankful none of them affect me today. Thats kinda how I feel about Jussie.

Plus I know that it is bad for victims and trust me I am all over that and agree, but I do have to wonder his mental state that he 1. thought to do this 2. thought he wouldn't get caught and 3. Was so front and center with the media about it knowing it was a lie.

Yes, but she was definitely omg about my opinion. Like, have your own opinion, fine but don’t rag on someone else’s take. It’s ok for us not to agree 100% on everything. I’m also annoyed because of last night’s conversation re Jordyn and Kylie. I don’t necessarily agree with icedcoffee but everyone trying to convince her of their own stances after she admitted a difference of opinion was annoying.

Personally - I think Jussie Smollett's best bet now is to plead guilty, serve time, and repay the city financially. I hope to god they deny bond, I really do.
I have no sympathy whatsoever for a grown person who allegedly chose this path which has harmed so many in so many ways. Has everyone seen CPD Superintendent Eddie Johnson's comments this morning? He's furious, and rightfully so.

But at the same time I know how it goes around here so I just try not to take it personally. Easier said than done sometimes for sure, because it does get exhausting to be quoted a bunch of times and/or feel like you're getting judged. Deep down I think most people here do like to argue to an extent so it can escalate pretty quickly haha

Ugh. Reading that left a nasty taste in my mouth. I wish he was still alive to get roasted for that but I doubt he would care. What a racist asshole.
