Oh, boy!
Reality TV whore Adrianne Curry sure has some interesting opinions.
Check out this latest entry she just posted on her official blog:
"MY Boycott against BET and Black History Month
Because of my last blog, and all the wonderful feedback I got..it made me think…
This is gonna be hard guys. I LOVE the comedians on BET. I also LOVE the fact that they play my favorite show of all time, In Living Color. However, I do not believe in seperating ANY RACE in America. WE ARE AMERICANS! How dare we have Black History Month! In my eyes, the Native Americans deserve it MUCH more, seeing how we destroyed their ENTIRE SOCIETY. There are hardly any of them left! They also have been proven to have the WORST living conditions on their reservations. I want AN AMERICAN HISTORY MONTH. One where we learn about EVERY race, ALL OF OUR LEADERS, EVERYONE! I think by having a month dedicated to one race, and not one for any other, is RACIST. Every fund set up to only help people of one race is SICK and RACIST.
Yes, I get it. Black people were slaves here once. You know what? That does suck some major balls, however, it is time to move the fuck on. Do we hear the Jews crying that they were made slaves for thousands of years? Do we hear them whine that they should OWN the pyramids in Egypt because THEY broke their backs making them? Do we hear them bitch and moan about Hitler, etc? (my hubby is a Jew)Nope, we dont. It's time for us to UNITE AS ONE. I do not think that singling out one race, giving one race opportunities to go to college (I know a TON of poor white.asian, indian, american indian, etc etc that could use that too!), giving one race the EXCUSE to blame things on others for being whatever nationality they are, is a good way at making sure we NEVER kill racism.
I am over this shit. WE ALL CAME FROM ONE BLACK WOMAN FROM AFRICA, THAT is our EVE! It has been proven by science, and I stand by it. If any other race had a chanel dedicated to just them, we would think it was racist. If any other race demanded a month be set aside for ONLY them, they would be considered racist. I am NOT living by this double standard any longer.
Think I am racist? I am not. I know what racism is. I dated a guy named "Justin" in Junior high. Nothing serious, but I really liked him. He was the blackest of black…BEAUTIFUL skin, kinda like Alex Wek's. He was handsome, and athletic, etc. I was called a nigger lover. But you know what? I was called that by a whole 2 people out of a school with HUNDREDS of students. THAT is why I am NOT buying this racist shit anymore. Let us teach or children that there is NO DIFFERENCE! We are all human. I hope one day aliens land and try to kill us. Maybe THEN we would finally realize that WE are ONE.
So, I will no longer tune into BET. This is going to suck, but I do NOT like the idea of having a chanel for only 1 race. In the year 2007 in a country that is supposed to be the most advanced and equal. This is unexceptable! I will also no longer acknowledge Black History Month. Instead, I will see it the way that Morgan Freeman does (I have the quote at the bottom of my last blog on Obama/jesseJackson, and OJ). AMERICAN HISTORY MONTH! I will read/watch/and learn about ALL the people who made a difference in this country.
I am asking you ALL to join me. Black, White, Indian, Asian, Russian, Australian, etc etc…..lets be AMERICANS together! What happened to the African American community was AMERICAN HISTORY, not BLACK HISTORY. If you want to celebrate in a way that excludes others and singles one race out, count me the FUCK out! I am soooo proud to be an American. I am SO proud that I have friends of every race, and none of us see each other as anything but what we are..people. Lets change Black History Month to 2 months of AMERICAN HISTORY. We will still learn about all the black leaders and people who made a difference….just not with the racist name of "Black History Month". It has to start somewhere. I am going to do my part in making sure we are all treated EQUAL in a country that CLAIMS we are. NO MORE SPECIAL TREATMENT FOR ANYONE WITH ANYTHING!
It will never happen. At least, that is what many of you will say…FINE! My number one priority here is being able to die and know that I stood up for what I believed in, and that I did not add to the SEPERATION OF AMERICANS!! I love my country, I love the people in it. I love our history, good and bad. We should LEARN from it,not dwell in it and not move forward. That's why I am done with this shit. You are all my brothers and sisters…..even if I think you suck ; ) As Bono said, "One life, with each other..sisters…brothers!"
now, have fun burning me at the stake ; )"

She Should Go To Rehab!
Who Is This????
Re: Melissa – You and the Brady idiot are both stupid! Native American Indians are getting money by the truckload every day! Take a look at www.congress.org and see all of the "earmarks" that are out there for Native American's! By the way, you DO have a White History Month. . . eleven of them! You want to know about White Entertainment Television (WET)? TURN ON ANY STATION AT ANY TIME OF THE DAY AND YOU WILL SEE THE WET! Oh, and to the asshole who said "I have black friends. I have hispanic friends and I even dated a Native American once" can go stick his or her face up the butt crack of the nearest Klan member! Talk about what you know, not about what you THINK you know! What are you so afraid of? You must really be afraid of people of color - all of you! Don't worry, THIS color doesn't run!
She does make some sense, but I don't think she should have been that brutal about the history. Alright, we get that you don't want a black history month, and why should we? But don't become disensitive to some other people's ideas.
AT LEAST SOMEOME IN HOLLYWEIRD HAS A MIND!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Adrienne has balls! And she is abolutely RIGHT!!!
Re: Robert E. Lee – Well if the fucked up South would not have discriminated against blacks for so many generations there would not be a need to affirmative action. You stupid hick.
And by the way, the Confederates were the first American terrorists to kill American Army troops in large numbers. The Confederacy is nothing to be proud of.
People like you tell blacks to go home to Africa if they dont like it. Well those that favor the Confedercy should get the fuck out of the USA too if they dont like it.
NOT ONLY WAS WHAT SHE SAID IGNORANT, BUT THE JEWS DO COMPLAIN AND WHINE ABOUT THE HOLOCAUST ALL THE TIME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Re: Hottgirl007 – God, people like YOU are the problem. Do you ever get tired of feeling sorry for yourself? Do you ever get sick of pulling that ever-famous/always used race card? Do you ever feel the need to break the cycle of "Boo-Hoo, I'm an oppressed Black Sister?" Lets live in the HERE and NOW…and in the here and now..blacks have MORE opportunities than whites. That's a fact. They can get a college grant in a hot second…they can get that job and TRUST THIS: You will NEVER be fired from your job because it's damn near impossible. Corporations cannot fire you because they KNOW they'll get sued - even if you deserve it - they will get sued under the " Boo-Hoo They fired me cuz I'm balck" umbrella. The worst part is the blacks KNOW it. It's a damn shame. Change your attiude and you'll gain respect..Until then..BE QUIET.
well, I do agree with her on certain points.
Re: coco – You say we should have American History…so be it….but before they started Black History Month there were no black people in History books….it was like we did'nt exist except as slaves. After many years they started including us…..Vanessa Williams was the first Black Miss America in 1985 the pagent had been in existence since 1921. These organizations didn't start because we wanted to separate they started because we weren't allowed to participate.
And if you believe you can achieve
Keep Hope Alive
She has some points but her thinking is flawed. Separate channels for separate races is practising apartheid. It is segregation. Martin Luther King and Nelson Mandela would have been apalled because it stands against what they fought for. Segregating any minority perpetuates their separation. It is not separation but integration that is the key. If there is going to be end to racism or lack of opportunity for any minority, it is by actively integrating them into the wider community. There will be some losers but the majority within those minorites will prosper. It should be pointed that Australians don't consider themselves Australian-Americans, they are simply Australians. Likewise, people living in Africa are not African-Americans, they are simply Africans. Adrienne can loosen her grip on the flag and take a deep breath.
HEY GUYS………………..DID YA KNOW IT'S HISPANIC HISTORY MONTH???!!!!!
FUNNY HOW OUT OF ALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL THE RACES YOU CHOOSE TO TALK SHIT ABOUT BLLLLLLLLACKS………………..HEY GUYS DID YA KNOW IT'S HISPANIC HISTORY MONTH????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? HEY HAVE YOU EVER HEARD OF CMT????????WE?????LMN????SPIKE?????OH PS ANY ONE WHO SAYS…."I DATED THIS ONE BLACK GUY" WHAT DOES IT MATTER UUUUUUUUUUUU KNOW HOW YOU FEEL, Y FEEL THE NEED TO EXPRESS YOURSELF….OH AND Y DO YOU THINK YOUR GOVERMENT APPORVES ALOT OF THING FOR "OTHERS" BECAUSE THEY KNOW THERE (OTHERS) ARE AT THE BOTTOM OF THE CHAIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Kelsey. You're an idiot. Go kill yourself.
she cannot really say that unless she has experienced racism, which she never has, therefore she should not speak like she knows all
That is exactly what I have been saying for years! Go Ally! You rock!
I love Adrienne!
Agree 100%. If I had celebrity status I would have said this shit A LONG time ago. Many black people complain about being treated differently than every other race, and they are. They are treated better.
Booo Effin Hooo.
Dear Dumb Bitch,
Since when has the existence of "Eve", or "her" race for that matter, been proven by science? Did you hear that one in church, or did you just pull it out of your bony ass?
The rest was just your ramblings of your own personal experience, which I could give 2 fucks about, and I'm sure nobody else would care if Perez didn't post it. Who cares how many races you are friends with, they do not represent the experience of all black people…this country is fucking huge, and you aren't!!!
Go back to posing for pictures, your blog is making you look ugly, and there goes your career!
This has to be the most idiotic rant I've ever read. Adrienne just proved herself to be the dumbest person in the universe with that blog. GOOD JOB AC! GOOD JOB! Now go kill yourself.
She is right on the money.
WTF is that biatch talking about?
that black lady was tortured,raped,stabbed and barely has got 1 minute on the news.A white kid gets his ass handed to him;he passes out and it's attempted murder!
Give me a fucking break!
I totally agree with her.
1st Amendment right. given to every-one. Let her say whatever she wants. u don't agree,,brush it off, don't get yr panties in a tiff…
Smart Girl..seriously!
Ahhh, stupid.. stupid.. americans. Nothing new
what amazes me is that the "WHITE FOLKS" always get crap for enslaving the black man.. But in ALL REALITY.. what they forget to mention is that they sold their OWN people to the white man. THEY sold themselves to us.. why is THAT never mentioned? and what would happen if WE had WHITE HISTORY MONTH? there would be riots. Why is there SUCH a double standard when it comes to race? And I agree with Adrianne… in fact- the American Indians should be the ones celebrated. We took everything from them and still to this day they suffer.
WTF this crazy bitch needs to shut her damn mouth and go suck a cock
Of course everyone's going to agree with the easy cop out. And please stop using the "Oh but I have black friends, Oh my black friend… blah blah"
BET was started because other channels at the time would not play black music. How can you speak on something when you don't know all the fact. African americans had a bigger impact to the united states than other races, but they are still celebrated. BET is an hiphop, r&b, gospel channel. When white people does those forms of music BET does show them.
I can not believe how misinformed you guys are. It's very very sad
Re: costamesaboy – FUCK YOU
ALL BY YURRSELF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
bitch just wants attention: talk about race, get people talking! simple formula; and it works.
Hmm… someone who isn't a racist usually doesn't have to announce it in a blog. Has she "blogged" on about her gender, her sexuality, her "intelligence"? I don't even know who she is (I'm from Australia) but her idiotic, inflammatory comments just emphasis and validate racial divisions. Hey yeah, maybe if she could one day, read something on US foreign policy in relation to international development in the Middle East and Israel.. F-ck it I'll shut up and I'll email her myself. Sorry, what does she do… Her claim to fame??
I'VE HAD MY FILL OF BLACK PEOPLE SAYING
*
YOU'RE PICKING ON ME 'CAUSE I'M BLACK
*
MOST OF THE BLACK SLAVES WERE SOLD INTO SLAVERY FROM OTHER BLACKS IN AFRICA. THE STRONGER BLACKS CAPTURED THE WEAK DUMB ASS BLACKS AND SOLD THEM FOR MONEY TO WHITES
*
SO STOP CRYING ABOUT EVERYTHING WHITEY DID TO BLACKY 'CAUSE IT WAS YOUR OWN BLACK ANCESTORS THAT BETRAYED YOU IN THE FIRST PLACE.
*
AND DON'T FORGET ALL THE BLACKS WERE FREED FROM SLAVERY BECAUSE AMERICA IS A GREAT COUNTRY EVEN THOUGH MANY PEOPLE WANTED TO KEEP BLACKS SLAVES.
*
AND DON'T FORGET THE WHITE BOYS THAT DIED IN THE CIVIL WAR TO FREE YOUR BLACK ASS
*
YOU GET YOUR OWN BLACK HISTORY MONTH SO YOU CAN GET EDUCATED ABOUT WHAT REALLY HAPPENED
*
I AM NOT RACIST, I JUST HAVE A LOW TOLERANCE FOR IGNORANCE
*
I THINK BEYONCE IS THE MOST BEAUTIFUL WOMAN IN THE WORLD
*
WHEN I LOOK AT HER. I SEE BEAUTY
*
STUPID WHITE TRASH, LIKE BRITNEY, DUMB SPICS, AND BLACKS THAT DIDN'T MAKE IT PAST 5TH GRADE ALL LOOK THE SAME TO ME - TARDED
*
MOVE TO AFRICA OR CUBA IF YOU DON'T LIKE IT IN THE U.S.A.

Re: Wake-up call – Re: Wake-up call – Re: Wake-up call – Re: Wake-up call – Re: Wake-up call – Re: Wake-up call –
I like all these comments saying that it's 'easy coming from a white woman'.. how racist is that shit? Are you saying that, because of her colour, her opinions are less valid? Fuck that shit. She is saying what I have been thinking for a fucking long time. As a 'white woman', I would have been considered a minority in my school and area, but I never looked at it, I never noticed and whenever someone brought up the race of another, I barely took notice. I never said "Oh you must be from Indonesia", "you must be from Brazil".. The ONLY time I was ever told to notice a race was when Black History Month came around.
What about women? Where is our history month? We were enslaved for MUCH longer than any race, by our own societys. Why don't we seperate ourselves by sex too? Why don't we just all stick to one sex and race and maybe even political belief system that way nobody will have to deal with the ideas of someone who may think differently somehow.
Spectacular.
I KNEW THAT I COULD COUNT ON PEREZ TO AIR THIS BITCH STUPITY!
SHE IS STUPID! ALL RACES HAVE HOLIDAYS! SO SHE CAN SHUT THE F*CK UP!
SHE IS A WHITE WOMAN AND THEREFORE PART OF THE PRIVELEDGED RACE, THEREFORE SHE WILL ALWAYS BE IN DENIAL AS SO MANY PEOPLE ON HERE ARE.
ASIDE FROM THE FACT THAT I’M A TRUE BELIEVER IN FREE SPEACH, I DON’T EXPECT UNEDUCATED WHITES TO UNDERSTAND OR ATTEMPT TO UNDERSTAND THE PLIGHT OF BLACKS.
KUCINCH FOR PRESIDENT!
She 110% right…
TOTALLY AGREE! And as you can see from MOST of the posts, so do most of the people here.
She didn't explain herself too well. But if her main point was let's not have a segregated society, then yes I agree with her. Let's celebrate our unitedness, not our differences.
But bitch is asking for it if she thinks she's the best voice to say this - would have been better coming from a black girl (like myself).
Agreed!!!
I wasn't too keen on her before this but she makes a point. Political correctness has gone mad. you can only "positively discriminate" now.
A woman in my town was asked by the police to remove her ornamental pig collection from the window of her own house because it offended some asian people that just moved in down the street.
Racism has definately swung the other way. It's acceptable to slag off white people and no-one else so if you are white and try to make any type of comment on racial issues as Adrienne has done you will be labelled racist because if you aren't part of the minority you should have no opinion?
Bollocks.
ok it all doesn't seem to fair. honestly, like their can be a black history month and like a channel dedictated to people of the black race but theres no like white history month or like white history channels… people would fuckin flip out it there was!! but they dont want to complain when theres a chanenl dedicated to black race bcus they dont want to seem racsit bascially.. well ne ways i think we shuld all be treated equally enugh of this black tv channel and white tv channel shit cant we all b equals shit wuld b so much better PoWer to all races!! evryone treated as equalse and no racism ya ok that will be the day
ignorance abounds!
Adrianne did bring up a few good points, but overall, I feel she's misinformed. If Blacks(as well as all other minorities) were not categorized and CALLLED minorities, then there would be no need for the"racism" of which she speaks. As a white female, someone who in the eyes of the world is considered to be not only the epitome of beauty but also a status symbol by many races, she will never know what it's like to not have things. I despise BET for many reasons, but let's look at a few facts: 1. More middle class WHITE teenagers buy and listen to rap/"black " music than any other group, and are one of the largest viewing audiences of BET. 2. BET is currently owned by a WHITE MALE. So it's not only blacks perpertuating things. 3. Take a some time to watch a few minutes of BET and tell me that it's only black people on there, and then watch any primetime show on any major network and tell me BET's being racist and segregating. I went to a predominately black college and I want you to now that they gave out minority scholarships to non-blacks ONLY, so it's not only blacks who get "handouts", as people like to say. If were supposed to be one big happy family, one single group as Americans, then ponder this for me: who on this blog would voluntarily become a black person for the rest of their lives? No one? Hmm, I wonder why…
WHY WE OBSERVE JEWISH HOLIDAYS?? AND OTHER CULTURES & RACES??
HISPANIC MONTH?? ASIAN PACIFIC?? CINCO DE MAYO??
ADRIANNE IS A RACIST BC SHE ONLY TOUCHES ON BLACKS AND NOT OTHER NATIONALITIES WHICH HAVE DAYS & MONTH REPRESENT THEMSELVES AND CULTURE..

Holy Mother of God! That was freakin' unbelievable! I am at a total loss of words, and that is virtually impossible, (ask anyone I know!)! Dare I say that I agree with her two-fold? Yes…I dare! I AGREE WITH YOU, HONEY!!!!!!!
AUSTRALIANS AND RUSSIANS NEED TO UNITE TOGETHER AS AMERICANS? WHAT AN IDIOT.
Re: blah – I totally agree with you, there's nothing wrong with being different, and that's what SHOULD bring us all closer together, but we still have a long way to go.
Re: nahnah – HEY LADY, IT'S NOT OUR FAULT….WHITE PEOPLE ARE SMARTER THAN BLACKS,,,,HELL EVEN THE MEXICANS ARE DOING BETTER IN AMERICA THAN DUMB BLACK PEOPLE…KEEP COMPLAINING, BLAH BLAH BLAH
America as a country is inherently racist. Too much $$$$ clouding peoples morals. What we need is a WAR to bring peop…oh hang on, we did that and it didn't work….*shuffles away*
amen!!!
i'm white and my mom is white and she married a black guy, he's been my dad for 16 years, i'm by no means racist, but i believe and agree with everything that she said.
i actually argue with my step dad about the same exact things…
it's like, why have miss black america and bet and all the things that signal out differences, we want to all be equal, so be equal and not TRY and make things diverse then complain about it!!!!
ahahaha
it is SO funny how people are proving her point even further by bashing her in these comments.
i agree with EVERYTHING she said.
good for her.
I HAVE BLACK FRIENDS, BUT IT IS SO TRUE THAT MOST OF YOU ARE RUDE AND ILL-MANNERED. YOU TREAT INOCENT WHITE PEOPLE WITH THAT RUDE BULLSHIT! WOW, SO YOU BULLIE A LITTLE WHITE KID INTO SHITTING HIS PANTS…YOU ARE SO FING COOL!!! THERE ARE BEAUTIFUL, INTELLIGENT, EDUCATED BLACK MEN AND WOMEN. BUT IN YOUR RACE THEY ARE THE MINORITY, WHO ARE OUTNUMBERED BY DIRTY MOUTHED, UNEDUCATED FREAKS WHO MOOCH OFF OF THE GOVERNMENT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
She is so right… if there was a channel just for white people, jesse and al would be all over it, screaming racism.
Re: Poopie – I'm an indian, and fuck you!!!!! She's fuckin' right and you know it!
Bravo, Adrienne! You had the courage to say what all of us are thinking.
Tons of ethnic groups had it hard when they came to the US. Yet the only ethnic group that is still on the bottom rung of society, despite being here for hundreds of years, are African-Americans. Just look around the world at a pattern - Africa = poorest continent in the world. Brazil = high murder rate and poverty rate due to large black population. Haiti = pure black country is the poorest country in the Western Hemisphere. Detroit, Compton, etc = black cities that are the worst cities in the US.
I'm so sick of people using the racism excuse for why blacks are poor. I'm so sick of white children being discriminated against in college admission and in jobs because blacks can't make it on a level playing field. Black people = IQ of 70. How are those morons supposed to compete with an Asian with an avg IQ of 105, or a European with an average IQ of 100. Blacks are poor because of their lack of intellectual development. They've never invented anything of consequence, have shown no governing ability. No society has ever benefited from having a black population. Every society is worse off in the form of having violent crime, failing schools, and race whiners who are envious of white people for all we have created. Blacks can't beat us on merit, so they try to guilt us into giving them power.
I totally agree with her on the racism thing. But Black folks aren't the only race with a television station; what about Telemundo, the Mandarin Channel, which, by the way, I watch to learn my spanish and some Mandarin language, and I like the soap operas!!! She can boycott BET, but AA's still want to know what's going on in their communities, just like the Latin folks who watch Telemundo want to know what's going on too! She meant well, anyway, just one doesn't have anything to do with the other.
THE WOMAN IS WHITE AND HAVE NEVER EXPERIENCED RACISM THEREFORE SHE WILL CONTINUE TO SPEW SUCH IGNORANT GARBAGE.
SHE IS PART OF A HISTORICALLY PRIVELEDGED GROUP OF PEOPLE SO SHE WILL NEVER (UNLESS SHE DECIDES T USE HER BRAIN) UNDERSTAND (OR SHALL I SAY ADMIT?) THE EFFECTS OF SYSTEMATIC RACISM.
NO WONDER AMERICA IS ALWAYS AT WAR AND WE HAVE PEOPLE FLYING PLAINS THROUGH OUR BUILDINGS.
AMERICA IS THE LAND OF IGNORANCE.
Go Girl! I agree with her 110%
I totally agree with her, on most of the things she said. Finally someone put into words what i have thought for a long time.
i agree with her…we're all one, seperation in any way is just regression. And im not coming from a place of white priveledge. Im latino.
Anyone who disagrees with this is an ignorant fuck. I have thought the exact same thing for years. My family never enslaved anyone, and I'm tired of everyone playing the race card. If you fall into that way of thinking and you are black, then maybe you should work on the way you feel about yourself. I am a poor irish girl, and have never blamed my family's station in life on the way we were discriminated against in the early 1900's. "Irish Need Not Apply" ring any bells? Help your ignorant asses to a history book. Bitches!
i love her whole idea of making america as one n all n not too sure how big bhm is over there but here in london, bhm is celebrated n cherished n we all become more tolerant n accepting of other peoples cultures and values n if anything less racist,we arent singling out one ethnic minority race but just giving them importance to feel part of the english community…yikes! she bta watch her bakkkkk
Re: nahnah –
I totally agree with Nahnah. This blog totally and perfectly describes white privledge. A part of me may have agreed with her years ago before I understood the privledges I was just born with as a white person. Those born without those privledges NEED to have/see/experience their own culture. Remember, it is a salad NOT a melting pot…we need to let others express their culture not just make everyone take on that culture of whites.
I am not surprised many of the commentators agree with Adrienne Curry's wild eyed rant, the online experience is seriously marred by the rantings of extreme white trashy, racist filth, PerezHiltondor com is not exception.
"do NOT like the idea of having a chanel for only 1 race. "
first, there is no such thing as race as it relates to humanity, there is but one race. We are of different nationalities, colors and body types but we are not of a different "race".
There are black cats and white cats, Siamese cats and tabbies, but a cat is cat, a dog is a dog and human is a human.
Race is a construct of white supremacist values.
Second, BET, black entertainment television is not to be viewed by one race. You bitches need to get a clue.. the station was created to address the serious lack of representation of black people in the media. The station was created to appeal to the varied interests and concerns of black people that was not and IS NOT addressed in the mainstream media. However, many types of people find the programming of BET of interest and value.
You are all redneKKKs who need to work out some serious mental issues.
THE WOMAN IS WHITE AND HAVE NEVER EXPERIENCED RACISM THEREFORE SHE WILL CONTINUE TO SPEW SUCH IGNORANT GARBAGE.
SHE IS PART OF A HISTORICALLY PRIVELEDGED GROUP OF PEOPLE SO SHE WILL NEVER (UNLESS SHE DECIDES T USE HER BRAIN) UNDERSTAND (OR SHALL I SAY ADMIT?) THE EFFECTS OF SYSTEMATIC RACISM.
NO WONDER AMERICA IS ALWAYS AT WAR AND WE HAVE PEOPLE FLYING PLAINS THROUGH OUR BUILDINGS.

KUCINICH FOR PRESIDENT!
Re: nahnah – Re: nahnah – It's SPEECH, not SPEACH! If you're going to post something a bunch of times, at least use spell checker. I don't expect uneducated people to know how to spell.
FUCK OFF DUMB BITCH AND ALL THE IDIOTS THAT AGREE WITH YOU. WORK ON YOUR FAILING MARRIGE INSTED OF TRYING TO BOYCOTT BET. IT IS OBIVIOUS YOU ARE THE PROBLEM IN THAT RELATIONSHIP
It is so easy to see who is uneducated here. It is also very easy to tell who the biggest whiners are. It is that same "Poor Me" attitude that keeps them from getting an education and keeps them from succeeding. You set yourselves apart by saying that you are an African American. Do you ever hear Swiss American or German American etc. No, because other races are proud just to be Americans. They come to this country to enjoy the freedoms here and they try to assimilate and become "Americans." Adrianne Curry was simply making a very valid point and I support her completely. Americans should be Americans. I know many white families who cannot afford to send their children to college and yet Mexicans and blacks always have a free ride if they want it. Is that reverse discrimination? It certainly is! And I dare to say that if it had been 6 Caucasian boys who beat up a black boy, this would be entirely different! Then we would see the blacks up in arms. Why does it always have to be a race issue? I don't care what race you are, 6 against 1 is cowardly and it is wrong! Violence is violence and it doesn't have a color. They should be punished as severely as the law dictates. Racism can end but it never will as long as there is someone waiting to jump on every single issue and cry discrimination. And the most prejudiced and racist people in the world are the ones who cry the loudest! If you want to see racism, you whining cowards, look in the mirror!
Her problem is since she thinks racism doesn't exist in her world, then it must not exist in any world.
Um. Who the fuck is she anyway? Wife of Peter Brady? Whatever.
Re: GOODBYE KITTY – I THINK THAT YOU NEED TO SUCK A BLACK MAN'S BALLS! BLACK HISTORY MONTH ISN'T GOING ANYWHERE! THEY HAVE ALL HERTIAGE MONTHS, SO COME OUT OF THAT BARN THAT YOU ARE LIVING IN! B*TCH!
Bravo, Adrienne! You had the courage to say what all of us are thinking.
Tons of ethnic groups had it hard when they came to the US. Yet the only ethnic group that is still on the bottom rung of society, despite being here for hundreds of years, are African-Americans. Just look around the world at a pattern - Africa = poorest continent in the world, backwards lifestyle. Haiti = pure black country is the poorest country in the Western Hemisphere. Detroit, Compton, etc = black cities that are the worst cities in the US. I'm so sick of people using the racism excuse for why blacks are poor. I'm so sick of white children being discriminated against in college admission and job openings because blacks can't make it on a level playing field. Blacks= IQ of 70. How are those morons supposed to compete with an Asian with an avg, IQ of 105, or a European with an average IQ of 100. Blacks are poor because of their lack of intellectual development. They've never invented anything of consequence, have shown what poor governing skills. No society has ever benefited from having a black population. Every society is worse off in the form of having violent crime, failing schools, and race whiners who are envious of white people for all we have created. Blacks can't beat us on merit, so they try to guilt us into giving them power.
In a perfect world… no one would notice skin tone… in a perfect world… whole races wouldn't have been destroyed, enslaved…. but this is a fact of life… and every is entitled to their opinions and freedoms.. thankfully this is America…. I am white… my children are black and white.. or as we say.. brown and pink… we don't discriminate in our family.. my husband is raspberry chocolate…. it's 2007… not 1807.. but racism is alive… and well… unfortunately.. so … I will continue to watch and support BET as much as I watch and support MTV… or any other type of "race" specified show… whether it be black/white/chinese.. everyone is entitled to their heritage and to celebrate that…
What the fuck is she talking about. We celebrate American History 365 days a year. First of all, as an African American we have no relative history. Only what has been fabricated by this country and have of that shit is not true. Secondlt, we also Hispanic Heritage month. Third, the Jews fucking own this country and they are the wealthist Americans to date. Lastly, this alcholic whore needs to sit the fuck down and read a few books before she starts rambling. Honestly, as a Black American, BET does not properly represent blacks. It's white America's perception of blacks. Get it only music, dancing, and comedy. We have more talent than that. We invented pretty much everything this country utilizes on a daily basis and we receive no credit.
SO FUCK THAT WHORE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
nahnah, learn how to spell you illitrate moron…and stupid too.
"Yes, I get it. Black people were slaves here once. You know what? That does suck some major balls, however, it is time to move the fuck on. Do we hear the Jews crying that they were made slaves for thousands of years? Do we hear them whine that they should OWN the pyramids in Egypt because THEY broke their backs making them? Do we hear them bitch and moan about Hitler, etc?""
not that i think it is bad
but jews are STILL talking about holocaust ,(at least in europe in the media (movies,documentary,newspapers) or at school ),jews were discriminated in europe that is maybe why they aren't blaming the usa whereas african americans were discriminated in the usa that's why they are complaining in the states
ALL THE FUCKING SHOWS ON TELEVISION CATER TO WHITES. (I.E. THE HILLS, NIP TUCK, DESPERATE HOUSEWIVES, GREY'S ANATOMY, PRIVATE PRACTICE,HOUSE, AND ETC.) PAY CLOSE ATTENTION YOU COCK SUCKERS.
Re: Shalyn –
Her opinions are not based on fact, therefore it IS less valid.
Most of what she has said are untrue.
You think like her because you're ignorant.
You can live in a non-white town, but that doesn't make you a MINORITY if you're white in america, you dolt.
SHE IS WHITE AND THEREFORE PART OF A PRIVELEDGED RACE. SO WHAT SHE'S SAYING IS EXPECTED. DO YOU WANT ME TO SAY IT AGAIN?
Re: Molly – Please stop with the black people have a free ride thing….because of my income I have to pay all of my daughters college bills……and she is black…so all black people do NOT get free college.
I didn't get free college either I used my military benefits for my education. So if you don't know the facts don't speak on it.
ABSOLUTLEY!! Agree 110% … Bravo adrienne!!
Re: KAYKAY – YOU PEOPLE DID IT TO YOURSELF, AS WE SPEAK—-LOOK AT THE JENNA 6, 6 BLACK MEN ALMOST BEAT 1 WHITEMAN TO DEATH, AND YOU MAKE A "HERO" OUT OF THEM?? WTF____MOST CULTURES DON'T DO THAT_______THEY DID IT TO THEMSELVES!!!
this stupid bitch must have been drunk when she wrote this. She has no idea what black slaves went through during slavery times, she should read up on it and then i would like to hear what she would say. yeah we should have an american month or whatever but ok, that does not mean we should get rid of black history month. And any way since when did she become president?? No one cares what the hell she has to say. You can still have american history month but put it on another flippin month and leave february alone!!! ANd ummm…. special treatment for black people??? She must be insane, does she even realize what white people did to blacks back then?? And black history month is not a month to mourn over what whites did to them, its a month to celebrate black peoples' achievements and accomplishments. so she really needs to shut up and educate her self before she talks all this shit!!
*standing up and cheering post # 914*
BREAK IT DOWN, BREAK IT DOWN!!!
Truthiness. For the most part. And it doesn't even remotely sound racist. However, she is gonna come under a lot of heat from all the delightfully idiotic liberals "protecting" our rights to act victimized. She sounds very libertarian. Good for her and also bad for her. Being rational is frowned upon in this country, politcally speaking.
Re: pfft –
I WILLS IT AGAIN:
THAT WOMAN (WHOEVER SHE IS) IS WHITE - THEREFORE SHE IS PART OF A PRIVILEDGED RACE AND I DON'T EXPECT HER TO UNDERSTAND OR EVEN ADMIT TO RACISM IN AMERICA, AS IT'S HER "PEOPLE" WHO ARE THE PERPETRATORS.
JUST AS I DON'T EXPECT YOU TO UNDERSTAND.
Re: Molly – and as far as the punishment of the Jena 6 goes …..yes they should be punished. But attempted murder? …..come on….and since when has a tennis shoe been considered a dealy weapon?
Have you even read up on the case?
And also the kids who hung the nooses should be expelled.
Re: Molly – WELL SAID_______JENNA 6 IS A FUCKING JOKE
Adrienne said what every non-self hating, brainwashed white person is thinking. We have allowed blacks to trample over us. We walk around on tippy toes not wanting to offend them in our comments. We will not praise out culture, despite it creating great things, yet we are forced to praise a culture that has only created ghettos and crime here in the US, in the name of political correctness.
And can we please stop with this black slaves built America BS? If that's true, farm animals built America! This country is what it is because of the European peoples who immigrated here and brought their culture of excellence. Idiot blacks are still on the bottom society because even in a culture that institutiinally discriminates against smart Asian and white people, blacks still can't make it.
Re: pfft –
HOW DARE YOU CALL ME ILLITERATE WHEN YOU CAN'T EVEN SPELL THE DAMN WORD? NOW WHO'S THE MORON?
She makes some since, yes. However, mainstream media and film in America is and has been dominated by Caucasians and the Caucasian experience. I’m not saying this is racism at hand but maybe she should boycott the major players as well. Hell, if she has thought about it any deeper than BET she probably would just get rid of her expensive TV and walk out on Hollywood. Also, how dare she not take into consideration that slavery (segregation and unfair treatment years after) literally destroyed and depressed a whole culture and made it impossible for many in said culture to pick themselves up. Americas treated blacks the same way they treated the Native Americans, but she doesn’t see the similarities. So Adrianne Curry, take your “They gave you your freedom, why cant you be happy” Shtick, and blow it out your limousine liberal ass.
P.s Asians are also at times treated horribly in the media by this country if not ignored completely.
I don’t care how much pot you smoke, but some models should be seen and not heard!

Re: Right On –
Black Man here I.Q=119…..
you guy are proving that racism does exist.
Just goes to show why some celebrities should not blog. I'm white, and I do not see a problem with black history month. If you don't want to celebrate it then you don't have to. African Americans have contributed a lot to this country. I will agree however that the Native Americans should have a month.
what points does she have….i am too exhausted to really comment, ut it's disappointing that people agree whith her…Does she want to abolish asian american month also. How about womans. THere is black history monthe so we can celebrate the past contributions. I hate BET also, not because it's black but because they show blacks in a bd way and doesn't help. But why can't blacks have a channel. Whites do, which is called most of them…
i think she needs to get an education since she only went to HS before she goes on rants that make her look silly
at least she's honest.
Wow, what a crappy, whiny way of saying it."Boo hoo, I'm white and why can't I be celebrated for being white?" "I want a a Caucasian TV channel!! Oh wait, I already have one!" But I still want to be rude insult others without my country being against me like they use to be. Who the heck asked you to watch BET anyway? I'm black, straight A, successful student with a promising future. YOU SAY YOU'RE NOT NOT STEREOTYPING ANYBODY BUT YOU JUST SAID YOU THINK THAT WE BLACK PEOPLE SHOULD STOP WHINING AND UNITE LIKE JEWS! HOW DID YOUR PARENTS RAISE YOU? BET is basically #7 on my choice of channels to watch. You have freedom, you idiot! To think I use to like like you b/c you were down to earth.
WHY DON'T ALL OF YOU LAME ASS NIGGAS GO BACK TO AFRICA WHERE YOU CAME FROM AND TAKE YOUR CRIME AND SAD WAY OF LIFE WITH YOU!!! TAKE BET, BLACK HISTORY MONTH, AND JESSE JACKSON, AND REV. AL SHARPTON AS WELL!!! THIS WAY AMERICA WILL HAVE LESS CRIME, GHETTOS AND A BETTER SOCIETY ALL TOGETHER BECAUSE WE WON'T HAVE CONSTENT MONKEYS KILLING EACH OTHER
i toally agree with her stance…ive been saying this for like EVER!why is it tht thye get a whole month and why are black people always so mean?not all but a majority always have big ass attitudes?
i have a brother that is black and i agree with everything she has said. i love my brother very much and wouldnt have it any other way.
Re: Emmaline – ALL AOLNE YUU ARR
haha celebrities are so stupid, but i can't say i've never thought about all of that. For example, i think it's hularious that there are african american sororites and fraternities. What if there where only white sororites and fratenities? All hell would break loose and people would be throwing around "racism, discrimitation and segregation" terms. HELLO!?! Aren't african americans the ones who are saying, "no to segregation"? Well they're the ones creating with with all these "black only" clubs and groups. you dont see us making "white only" clubs. get real
