"If you look at what Perez [Hilton] does - and I don't advocate for Perez, you know, he can write hurtful things about a lot of people - but what he does as a man of color, as a Latino, is he never dogs Latinos, ever. He actually breaks artists on his website. They can go from "Who the hell is that?" to Number One on iTunes in a day, just from what he says. So he's trying to uplift his own people. I mean, he dogs everybody else, but as a man of color, I applaud you. I can't dog you for not dogging your own people. He never says anything negative about Latinos, ever, and I just wish that we had more of that kind of "raise up" mentality and pulled each other up instead of dragging each other down. Especially like… If I got arrested, say whatever you want to say. If I had kids and left them in the car while I partied, or I got out of cabs showing all my private parts, you have every right to dog me. If I came out and dogged my own people, kill me in your blogs. But don't make things up! I do enough, and if you really got spies everywhere you'd know what I was doing, you wouldn't have to make things up. And if you don't know your facts, then just don't print them."

      I see what she's saying…on BOSSIP.com they talk shit about their black people all the time even if if isnt true. Their bringing down their own race and she's saying PEREZ isn't doing that, you can even count on one hand how many hispanics perez has dissed. Thats why she's said Bossip need to be more like him…and thats not being racist, it's being proud, having pride and respect for your culture.

      She needs to follow her own advice and get her facts straight too!! true Perez talks good about a lot of latinos, but he also talks good about black people like Janet Jackson and Whitney Houston…so i really don't know what this chick's talkin about

      This is the Idiot Quote of the Day. I like it when Perez gets excited about promoting Latin artists. Quite the contrary, this bitch comes off like a racist. And a moron.

      311

      So by saying this, she's basically calling him racist. Not only that, Jessica Alba is talked about on his website too, and her dad is Mexican. Duh.

    12. Frankygoestoboston says – reply to this


      312

      Why is she calling Perez a person of color? So called latinos come in all colors and shapes. Not all Italians, Portuguese, Greeks are olive skinned either.

      314

      What the hell is this idiot talking about??? stfu!!! No one has the right to dog anyone out. Perez should be shot for how much he dwells on some celebs….Am I understanding her correctly that she is saying to dog out everyone but your own race to raise each other up? That is great. Great Advice for everyone!

      You talk about Jessica Alba.

      Re: Hmm

      Hispanic isn't a race, douche, it is a culture. There are PLENTY of white people there. Nobody is saying that those white people aren't Hispanic, they are just explaining that Hispanic isn't a race. There are PLENTY of white people in Latin America that are not only of Spanish descent [which yes, Spanish people ARE white], but some of German descent, Italian, English, Portuguese, Russian, the list goes on an on. Perhaps you should take a course in Latin American studies and learn about the different ethnic groups in Latin America. Not everyone is "mixed" or "brown skinned" and being white isn't more than just skin color. It's the skin color/facial features that defines race, not culture, heritage, or language. You are an idiot and should be the last person telling anyone to 'open their minds'. You don't know what you are talking about.

      318

      Wait, verbally assaulting everybody except those of your own race….isn't that called racism? It is if you're white.

      Interesting.

      Anyway….MICHELLE RODRIGUEZ & JESSICA ALBA….just to name two. Do your homework Ms. Union, before you go and say ANYTHING defending this piece of trash, especially since what you said was in every way shape and form….WRONG.

      320

      a) I was of the understanding that using the term 'coloured' was extremely out dated, if not racist.

      b) 'Latino' people who are descendants from Spain, Italy etc are not 'of colour'…they are Caucasian.

      325

      Re: dorothy – You dumb bitch! I happen to be a proud caucasian Latina and YES we do exist! Just because someone is Latina does not mean that their descendents are necessarily of color. There are four races (white, black, indian and asian) in Latin America as well as an ENDLESS amount of people of mixed race. My descendents happen to be 100% European, so my race is white, but I am also 100% Latina. According to you, I don't exist, right stupid? I can't stand ignorant f*cks like you. As for Perez, he is very likely caucasian, but he may also be of mixed heritage. the only way to know is to ask him - so why don't we just cut the shit and play it safe.. stop labeling people but know what the hell you are talking about regarding the definition of Latino in regards to race before you open your big mouth.

      on black blogs they cover mostly black people (duh), so yeah they cut down on a lot of black people. but they praise a lot too. but a lot of the time when they cover a white person they are even more harsh, so i don't think it's about cutting down only "their own kind".

    29. hates idiots says – reply to this


      329

      Re: MARCO – Your an idiot and i hate responding to peoples idiocy but non white people are considered of color. Just b/c latinos come in all colors doesn't make them black ( if they are dark) and white ( if the are white) although his skin is light he is still a man of color. Obviously ur a light latino who doesn't want to be associate with peope of color because ur a racist. it's a shame america has made u hate yourself. U person of color.!

    30. Loves "hates idiots" says – reply to this


      330

      Re: hates idiots
      Yes, I think someone else had already said this but it's a very big deal with them, skin color and being identified as "white"… It's why the census is all screwed up…they REFUSE to identify themselves as "Hispanic" so they choose "white"….Sure, "Hispanic" might be insulting to you, maybe it doesn't exist and you refuse to be put into a box at the government's convience, but why "white"?
      Anyway…yep…they've got a huge issue with it, they've almost got some old caste system…it's why Jessica Alba doesn't want to be labeled a Latina, because she was born in this country…thus the whole "I'm an American" thing… And, the only reason Eva Langoria is friends with her is because she has an issue with-her dark skin-as well… It's why she's always tanning to look like a gingerbread man, she wants to distort her skin color…it's absurdist…it's really quite demented…She scares me.
      Oh well, she's got bigger fish to fry, that Eva, like that Brigitte Bardot lookalike her husband's boiking.

      Re: sikofitall

      Like I said previously, NEVER call a white Hispanic a person of color!!! LOL This post is a perfect example. Sikofitall, so you are 100% European, huh? Well, should I let out a big cheer? Do you want an award? Your statements made me think that you are one of those Hispanics that think that they are better than their darker skinned brothers and sisters. I hope that I am wrong.

      Again…if you want to do a case study in fucked up race issues…study Hispanics/Latin Americans.

      336

      DOG DOG DOG… wow, she sounds uneducated. BTW.. have you guys checked out WWW.GLOBALGRIND.COM? I read about this there first! But anyway, if Perez is going to talk junk bout people, it should be about all people. If it was a white person wit this blog, n they didn't talk about white people, it wouldn't be considered lifting their people up, it would be considered racist. Period.

      Latino pride? as if… what have latinos as a community achieved??? no one says that! and things like these are incredibly rascist coz you0re all like, lets make peace not war, and then you go divide yourselves in races, well obviously fat walrus vagina head (perez) would say things like these coz, he's an illiterate fag who blogs for a living, but for the rest… real shame… REAL shame. Jessica alba may have latino root's that doesnt make her latino since she doesnt speak spanish and hasnt had a spanish upbrining so get off her case.

      Wow, great job stupid bitch. Let's just separate ourselves more and more into different groups, like it's some competition between all the races and we're all on separate teams. So I guess by her ideals, that means I, as a white person, have every right to "dog" people of other races and talk shit about all the other races, but I shouldn't "dog" other white people, cuz they're on my team. Yeah right. WHAT THE FUCK kind of backwards thinking is that? So much for equality. This chick is a stupid cunt, a bad actress, and a complete hypocrite. "MY PEOPLE?" MY ASS!!! We're all human beings, but you wanna take away from all the struggles over the years to unite us and further perpetuate the cliques and bullshit and racial separation. Fuck that. This chick needs to shut her fat mouth.

      Latino (Hispanic) is a ethnic classification, not a racial one, you morons. "Latinos" can be of any race, people like Perez are of Spanish descent. Take a wild guess where the Spanish are from. I'm Cuban, so I can talk shit on you retards. As my grandpa would say DEJA DE COMER MIERDA!

      I wish white people whould shut the fuck up about this "we are the world" we are the "human race" bullshit. "You people" have had the privilege to grow up and not see the world in terms of race. I am not even a Gabby fan but context is important and the aforementioned is only PART of the text from an interview. If the entire statement was posted her actual point would not have been so misconstrued…but I won't even bother wasting my time trying to explain her point b/c bottom line is, you'll NEVER "get it."

Also Blacks are looked at as being racist if they say dumb shit about other races as well. It's fucked up that u don't realize that white people can say pretty much whatever the fuck they want because the run the government as well as the media.
