Hater Alert: Critics attack Gabourey Sidibe

Seriously, Hollywood? Some of you are just some straight up haters with nothing better to do.

Star of "precious", and just STAR period, Gabourey Sidibe is ruining Hollywood's outdated ideals of what is beautiful and star worthy. Critics like Howard Stern (Seriously who gives a flying whoohaa what he thinks? anymore) are bashing our girl because she is "the size of a planet." Okay, no need to be mean. What does Stern and others hope to achieve by calling her big? like does that get them up in the morning? It's hard enough these days for girls to feel good about themselves, and for the first time ever, a girl who does not fit the Aryan model of perfection is doing great things and people want to hate on her for it.

It's a triple case of the isms, she's a woman, she's a minority and she's 'big'. The critics in this case are basically using "healthy" as a guideline to try and undermine her success. In other words they don't believe that if you're a minority of the sort then somehow, success should elude you. Because for heaven's sake we're not all equal....Oh Snap! doesn't it say that in the constitution??

I digress...

It's just appalling that people would make such a deal about her success.If it doesn't involve you directly, nor does it threaten you, why do you care?!
Plain ole Haterade. Stern calls it "reality," well here's the thing with reality, it's not all it's cracked up to be. Sidibe probably understands that a lot of people will never want to cast her in a film, but who cares? she has talent and talent can overcome. We don't need people like Stern with his attention to 'reality' because no has told him the reality that his Phil Spector hairdo is just god-awful. Let's keep it "real."

Obviously Sidibe has no hang ups about her looks and why should she:
I love the way I look. I'm fine with it. And if my body changes, I'll be fine with that."- Gabourey Sidibe

If she loves the way she looks, then what is the problem?
Shouldn't we as a public be celebrating someone with such high confidence? Isn't that the point of all these body positive image makeovers? Hollywood and society at large, put your money where your mouth is...and just shut up for once. Time to give someone else the spotlight for once.
