Many need to apologize to Gabourey Sidobe.

Remember when Howard Stern said Gabby S would not work after her movie because she was fat? She has been working steady since then. Now she is on Empire. The fatty bigots need to apologize. Hollywood is getting slightly better.

All you others say Hell Yea!! woot!

Yes, but the writers have failed to give her a storyline so far. They are just kind of using her as a prop. So, Hollywood still has a long way to go. By the way, what do ya'll think about the kiss between Jamal and Alicia Keys?

I was yelling, "Don't do it!" LOL.

As for Gabby I'm not one to weight-shame but it's obvious to almost everyone that she needs to seriously lose some weight. And if I may be a little critical she should really work on her acting. She's reliable with a few good line reads here and there on Empire but she might actually be miscast.

And she might end up suffering from The Ricky Lake Affect; What's a girl to do once all the "fat girl" roles dry up?

I've seen Gab is numerous recurring roles on Premium cable and honestly she's never given anything much to do. I think her name gets her roles, but the writers seldom give her much.

The quote was "... she's never going to be in another movie." She's done a lot of films since but I've never heard of any of them. Howard already apologizes to his wife every night for only providing 3 inches of penis he just doesn't have the energy to apologize to Gabourey. bored2

lol

Did he literally say, "She's never going to be in another movie"? Can't remember. I do remember that the gist of what he said was taken out of context (I think Oprah and/or some other celebs were feting her like she was the next great leading lady and he was like, 'Everybody calm down - you're just leading the poor girl on.').

Well Raven bobble-head played Jamal's babymama last season so I guess he's supposed to be somewhat bi? I was more perturbed by Alicia's wailing like a tortured cat. lol Didn't she used to be able to sing?

I swear that show is all over the place. disbelief

As any regular Howard-listener knows, it's 6 inches. lol Robin doesn't need that much. She says "4 inches is fine!" razz

Oopsie! I didn't read carefully and assumed she was talking about Terrence (3 inches, child bearing hips) Howard. lol

I've read before that Howard admited to being small. It wasn't here, but it was years ago on a more respectable site with a quote. I've never listened to Howard Stern, though I have watched a few episodes when it was on E!

He and some of the other guys on the show were measured on-air (in the bathroom) and it was six inches. An oft-repeated factoid on the show. lol

I'm not a fan of her acting, but I think the weight shaming crap is passe. I still admire her for defying the conventional standards.

However, Melissa McCartney & Rebel Wilson are still BBW #1 & #2 respectfully in the eyes of Hollywood.
