well, at least we now know where beyonce gets her "special-ness" from
BEYONCE KNOWLES' father MATHEW is furious the superstar was overlooked at the Golden Globe Awards, accusing the film industry of discriminating against blacks. The singer-turned-actress failed to pick up a single nomination for her role in DREAMGIRLS, and - despite Golden Globe wins for Afro-Americans FOREST WHITAKER, EDDIE MURPHY, PRINCE, Dreamgirls co-star JENNIFER HUDSON and the movie itself - Knowles Snr blames his daughter's omission on racism. He told reporters after the ceremony on Monday (15JAN06), "Today is MLK's (MARTIN LUTHER KING's) birthday and it saddens me to say that things have not changed for blacks. Working class blacks and blacks in Hollywood are still being discriminated against. We still have a long way to go."

I find this humorous because it's so ridiculous! As the article mentioned, there were many black winners! I have a newfangled idea...maybe she didn't win because she's actually not a really great actress (though I can't judge because the only movie I've seen her in is Austin Powers) Who did win? Oh, yes, that's right: MERYL STREEP. I really hope Mr. Knowles isn't insinuating that Beyonce is a better actress than Meryl Streep!
And did he really say nothing's changed since Martin Luther King died? That's grasping a little bit.
Anyways, cheers to Hollywood and its fantastic absurdity...

wtf, that pisses me off. a lot has changed since mlk's death. our next president might be black! he's so ignorant and stupid.
He's just mad that beyonce didn't win.
its pathetic that he brings race into this.
HE IS FRUSTRATINGLY STUHHHHPID
Yeah, her father's an egomaniac psychopath. I don't mean to be so blunt, but he's devilishly controlling (ala Michael Jackson's dad) and poison to her career...
Beyonce's latest album was produced and completed without her father's input (like he did in past albums) and I believe it's one of her best.
Who needs blackula anyway? I swear I'm not racist... lol.
Besos para ti.
pretty much I agree with everything you said. Beyonce is just a diva and apparently so is her dad.
OMG! I mean, he can't be more stupid...
now that, is just utterly ridiculous.
the photos of my room are finally up
also this is the most stupid thing I have ever heard, Nothing has changed since Martin Luther King's day? Bollocks
what the hell.
i agree that beyonce didn't win because she just isn't a good actress.
AARGGH.
hahahahahahahaha
i agree with you, its is a bit ridculious and there is no way beyonce wil lever be a better actress than Meryl
is it pathetic that I'm spazzing out over the fact that you haven't posted in 2 1/2 days???
yeppp.....I thought so ♥
heh heh heh. god, he makes himself seem like an ignorant ass.. and poor beyonce, that is almost as embarassing as jessica simpson's dad talking about her cup size... actually no, but it still makes him seem stupid
who even lets celebrity parents speak in public? (ahem, i'm talking to you, dina lohan)
