Gabourey Sidibe of Precious fame and easily one of the breakout stars of the year was noticeably snubbed, along with other actresses of color, for the Vanity Fair 2010 Young Hollywood cover which featured all white young actresses including Kristen Stewart, Carey Mulligan, Amanda Seyfried and Anna Kendrick among others.
But Gabby didn’t let her blatant omission get her down! She says:
“At first I thought, ‘Hmm, should I be there? Then I very quickly got over it. I think if I were a part of that shoot I would have felt a little left out anyway.”
“I would have felt a little like… whether or not I should have been there. [It] doesn’t matter, because I wasn’t on it and I’m excited to be mentioned anywhere, and it doesn’t matter to me where I’m not mentioned.”
Great attitude!
Besides she has more charisma and character than K-Stew does any day!
