A thinly veiled blind item suggests Will and Jada Pinkett-Smith are the last people in Hollywood who should be calling for a boycott of the Academy Awards over the lack of diversity...
From Blind Gossip
My jaw just about dropped to the floor when I heard [Actress]’s comments. [Her Actor Husband]’s performance wasn’t that good, and then I thought that maybe she was doing the jealousy thing, because lord knows she’s never won any major award for anything, and the only awards she does get are for being black.
Then I got mad about the hypocrisy. This is what I really want you to tell your readers about.
You know how she and [her husband] have a production company? Well, they have his and hers projects, and here’s a dirty little secret: “Her” projects are always for/by/about/starring/directed by black women.
But for “his” projects (which are MUCH bigger), his directors are:
WHITE GUYWHITE GUYWHITE GUYWHITE GUYWHITE GUYWHITE GUYWHITE GUYWHITE GUYWHITE GUY
Minority Guy (not black)
Seriously. Not one black director. Not one female director.
That’s their dirty little secret. She wants to go off about how racist the industry is and about how they don’t value black people, but she doesn’t want you to know that when it comes to who they trust with their big movies, it’s not other black people!
