i don't think Angela Bessett has a Oscar .
YOU ARE SO STUPID PEREZ - DONT YOU EVER CHECK ANYTHING? DUMB ASS PIECE OF SHIT - YOU JUST HURT THE GAY COMMUNITY - ALL YOU FUCKING FAIRIES DO
Ya know…it was a tragic death of Biggie AND tupac, but i swear it NEVER ENDS! They shouldve made this movie years ago.
love her I can't wait to see this movie!
Yes Perez! We sit here believing that you are anxiously waiting for the Tupac movie to get made. Let's face it, you are more interested in outing people than seeing African-Americans glorified. But your 'white guilt' forces you to say otherwise. (Cannot imagine why you'd have 'white guilt' though.)
No one wants to see a movie about rapper that were shot! It's the thinning out of the herd. They all should be shot and then we can return to the business of proper pop records.
Re: Jenn –
Shes right…she was only Nominated once, but never won an Oscar.
change my butthole
change is not what you HAVE TO SAY
OBAMA IS SUCH A LIAR..
WHAT ELSE DON'T WE KNOW
HIS REAL ASTATE FRIEND IS GOING TO COURT THIS WEEK
WE KNOW THAT
HE WAS INVOLVED WITH HIM
WE KNOW HE'S INVOLED WITH THE MIDDLE EAST
NOT GOOD FOR US
THEY ARE TRYING TO MAKE AMERICA
THE NEW MIDDLE EAST
COMMUNISM THAT COMES IN
CHANGE
SHEEZ A NOTORIOUS JIG
That's awsome! She deserves that!
yeah…she definitely has not won an oscar…though, she did win a golden globe for "what's love got to do with it?"
I hear Mike Myers is making a Perez hilton biopic to be called "My Fat Ass Eats Children".
maybe it will come out when he actually dies…..I don't know of any other artist that puts out more albums while "dead" than he did while alive
It wouldn't be "another" Oscar. She's never won one.
WHO GIVES A FUCK???
she doesn't have an oscar. she was nominated once but didn't win. jeez get your facts str8.
This is sad. She's doing TV and small-budget movies. She has the looks and talent to be playing bigger roles than this. I wouldn't mind if she "starred" in a weekly TV show, not a sidekick or co-player like ER. I don't know if she wouldn't do the casting couch thing, or she was too high-minded, but time has surely passed Angela by. She's almost 50 and she should be starring in Broadway plays. A Raisin in the Sun would have been perfect for her.
But most Black actresses (exc. Halle) have problems getting really good gritty roles, and truth be told, most White actresses too. Look at Gwen Paltrow who is now the Girlfriend to Iron Man. Women need to write & produce their own stuff. Get their own movie studios. Whatever it takes.
Re: Bri –
It was hardly a TRAGIC death. Thats what happens when you live that lifestyle. And they had the money and the resources not to, so I don't feel the least bit sorry for them. I can't believe anyone would pay to see this movie.
OMG Pharrell in drag !!!
Who cares. This site is really boring.
people are so stupid, cant they read that perez put.. ANOTHER OSCAR NOM ( AS IN NOMINATION)….he never confirmed an ACTUAL win…im not a big fan of perez…but then again the pig got it right…
It's about time the story of the greatest man in the rap game, Notorious BIG, is told. The fact that Angela Bassett is playing his mother is HUGE! Even tho I'm a rocker thru and thru, my love for Biggie will never die. His songs bring back so many wonderful memories, and his music help pave the way for so many other rappers-I hope this biopic does justice for him!

Ms. Bassett is amazing at every age! love her!
Re: j – LOL haters Yo go aNGELA SHE GOT MORE MONEY THEN ALL OF US COMBINE…. HATERSSSSSSSSSSSSS LOL Makes me laugh when someone elses life is so sad they have to haters on someone who is going something positive and making much more than u will ever. lol hate on haters
you guys are lame … read … "another oscar nomination" … she was nominated for "whats love got to do with it" but didnt win …. get a dictionary ppl … smh
BIGGIE BIGGIE BIGGIE CANT YOU SEE, SOMETIMES YOUR WORDS CAN MYSTIFY ME.
Re: DJohRicky! –
why would he have white guilt? because he (like every other minority that gets a tiny (very tiny in perez's case) taste of fame) has rejected his roots and eventually moves towards mainstream/accepted culture (aka white culture)
Hey maybe they can make a movie about you called the Notorious P.I.G.
*smooches*
PEOPLE READING IS FUNDAMENTAL! LOL ANGELA IS A GREAT ACTRESS! BUT SHE IS FAR PRETTIER THAN BIG'S MOTHER!! HIS MOM IS SO NOT CUTE!!! LMAO:)
Re: cyrus – you are a dumb cunt so zip it!!! he changed the title once people started pointing out he was wrong. earlier he had it titled as another Oscar headed her way, not another Oscar nod. know what the fuck you are talking about before opening your dumb cunt trap
Im confused!! Someone actually wrote a biopic of the life of Biggie Smalls for the big screen. Is this really possible. Are you sure this isnt going to be a BET special. What great things did Biggie do in his short lifetime? I dont get it…..some big fat dude makes a few rap albums and then gets in with the wrong crowd, gets killed and 10 years later this is what we do? Make a movie and glamourise his questionable lifestyle? Are you kidding me….?
if angela does the old Jamacian lady accent she will in the oscar
WHY?!?!?! Biggie and Douche Diddy sold drugs and never did anything to really rise above anything.. drug money paid for where they got - not hard earned money.. and not for nothing, but there is nothing impressive about a mumbling rapper who can't see out of his dead stoned eyes… give me a break. I wouldn't see this if my life depended on it..
LS- I don't "hate on her." Whatever that means. Maybe you mean that I "hate her," yeah, I don't, I just don't care.
Money doesn't buy happiness as you can tell, Biggie had money and is now dead. You're preaching to "hate on haters." You're "hating on me," does that make you a "hater?" Should I "hate on you?"
Get a clue!
Yeah right! She hasn't "crossed over" to mainstream whites or kissed their asses like Halle Berry and Jennifer Hudson. Whites will never acknowledge great black actors. They will never pay what they owe. You have to fuck a white man like Halle Berry or kiss up to a white man like Jennifer Hudson if you want an Oscar. All the comments on here are EXACTLY why every other race hates the white race! Fucking inbreed asses!
WHAT why would she waste her talent to play Biggie Smalls mom!!! How about Doctor Donda West
Yeah, when is the Tupac one coming out? That should tell you how much privacy the Tupac clan wants and how Biggie acan still be sold as he lays dead! Personnaly I think that is messed up. I think his mom is eager for the movie check.
Re: Red – please. Biggie did nothing but glorify being ugly. Tupacs raps were MUCH more profound and poetic…he even freaken has a book of poetry (which is quite good by the way). Tupac rapped much more about social issues. Biggie was just a good rapper who was taken from us too soon. he didnt even TOUCH tupac lyrically. Im sure if he was still alive hed be right along with MASE.
GOD DAMN. WHY DO WE HAVE TO HAVE A MOVIE ABOUT THAT FAT UGLY FUCK???
IF HE WAS ALIVE, I WOULD SLAP HIS FUG FUCKING FACE.
HIS SO CALLED MUSIC SUCKS, TOO
Re: Every Other Race – you want to paid what your are owed???
Go find the African tribes that profited by selling your ancestors to Europeans.
OH you can't. They eventually squandered their profits and killed each other off in territorial wars that STILL go on today, along with slavery, in AFRICA.
I don't hate anyone, but don't put your poor-me victim-standing-around-with -your-hand-out mentality in my face and expect white guilt in return. HA
i
Who cares about gay ass B.I.G. His cadaver bloated on Diddy's SPERM.
Tupac was way more talented than Biggie. He should have the first biopic out. Such a dissapointment.
Biggie was always absolutely ridiculous looking. In pictures, always frowning, trying to look scary and menacing. A wanna-be thug. I never fell for it - he just looked like a stupid poser to me. And he's a VERY bad influence on kids. I worked with very poor inner-city kids for 4 yrs, and I know this for a fact - he helped inspire a very dangerous, fuck-you attitude. The kids I worked with don't give a shit about school - they're only impressed by how Fiddy got shot 9 times and lived. To them, that's a real achievement - something that he somehow "earned," not that he was just fucking lucky. What is the message this entertainers are sending - all that matters is money, no matter how you get it; police are your enemy; selling drugs is a legitimate business, and if the police arrest you for it, then it's racial discrimination; women are bitches - fuck 'em, and then discard them. They're disposable. That is the legacy that Biggie left behind. I think that it's completely embarrasing that they're making a movie about him. If they glorify him, I hope that all African American leaders speak out against the movie.
The best black actress we have working today shes good n every movie shes n and she just keep getting more and more beautiful as time goes by.
She's amazing but if she puts on some fake ass wack jamaican accent i won't be able to focus on the film.
