I know there's that whole "Glitter" thing but I saw her in some other gangster movie with 2 other actresses and Mariah is a natural. She really can act. Anybody remember the name of the movie? I'm too lazy to look it up. Decent movie though.

I want to see this but if I go I will have to be by myself.
I cry at everything and I refuse to cry in front of any family or friends

I just don't understand how people can treat their kids or other people like this. I don't get it.

Looks like an interesting flick.

odd ass casting , but it looks decent

I do!

When people get treated like that by their parents, some of them are not strong enough to break the cycle and in result, their children endure their baggage.

You, Me and Supa. This Movie. Same theater. Life vests under every seat.

“They try to paint the picture that I was this downtrodden, ugly girl who was unpopular in school and in life, and then I got this role and now I’m awesome,” says the actress. “But the truth is that I’ve been awesome, and then I got this role.”

...

Ah, yes, her weight. When Sidibe was 11 years old, an aunt offered to pay for a cruise if she lost 50 pounds. Friends and family continue to pressure her about it. “I still hear it from people who don’t know that they’re pretty close to hurting my feelings,” she says, “people who care about me, like this one friend. I was eating a light potato chip, and she eyeballed me like I was the most disgusting thing she’d ever seen. She says, ‘Every time you want to put something disgusting in your mouth, think of the designers who won’t make a dress for you because you’re fat.’ ”



But at some point, says Sidibe, “I learned to love myself, because I sleep with myself every night and I wake up with myself every morning, and if I don’t like myself, there’s no reason to even live the life. I love the way I look. I’m fine with it. And if my body changes, I’ll be fine with that.”

Oh my god, I love her! She's incredible! There's an interview with her in New York magazine this week, and I'm so totally into her now.

Here's the whole thing: http://nymag.com/movies/profiles/59419/

But a few samples that I particularly loved below:

It did VERY well at the TIFF, something tells me we'll actually get to see this in theatres...

...Well, maybe just yall in the states. Canada has a hard time with showing good films...

Helen Mirren backed out.

When you go from Helen Mirren to Mariah, you gotta push for her to at least look busted.

The thing is that they're sayin OOH she's allowing herself to look this way like it's a big achievement. Like whomever brings a stack o' pancakes to her in bed each morning hasn't seen this face.
