is wayne brady gonna have to choke a b****?

I am glad he said something.
I know he has to get tired of his name being used as a 'diss'
It is disrespectful to him.

Yes, but in fairness he did star in his own daytime talk show. That's pretty emasculating.

 

Skeet skeet, bang bang *****.

 

I completely AGREE with Wayne Brady. Not all black men are tatted up, high school dropouts with a nasty attitude and poor disposition people with a bad sense of fashion.

 

Agreed. Never really liked people slamming Wayne Brady just because he's not "edgy" enough. He may not be your particular taste in comedian, but that doesn't mean it's okay to slam him as not "black" enough.

And, as much as I tend to agree with many of his political stances, I think Bill Maher is a smug prick.

 

Whose Line is it anyway is the best thing to happen to Wayne Brady and I will always remember him for his part in it...

 

I always liked Wayne Brady in all the roles he has played.

 

My grandma doesn't like it when Wayne Brady raises his voice on tv. She might have a heart attack if she reads this article.

 

Alot like Aisha Tyler, Brady is nice and charismatic personality, but a less than remarkable comedian and performer; it could be construed that some of his opportunities have come because of the combination of his race, affability and availability. A cynic and professional comedian like Maher could be expected to make that joke irrespective of his interracial dating history.

B. Allen and Gumbel, probably the most sociopolitically complex news personality in the last thirty years, got these monikers and either ignored or personally laughed them off, as perhaps the only people really "harmed" by them are impressionable, young black guys. I guess I have to assume Brady was doing the same thing as sarcastically as possible.

 

Does she complain about his body language and think he should smile more?

 

Expectations on what black personalities (or any other race for that matter...) should be should just stop.


Maher can be spot-on with the political commentary, but I wouldn't mind him getting ****ed up once in a while for and his other personality quirks.

 

The simple fact is Wayne Brady DOES let it get to HIM too much.

Take away the "black" part, the elements in play is that he's a SOFTY and SQUARE. NO ONE wants to be THAT. Wayne Brady actually needs to lean on that "blackness" for that "cred".

I can see how how it hurts his image and career aims. After that, he has nothing to worry about, nothing to prove to anyone.

It just shows how powerful stereotypes and typecasts can be. [BTW, Aisha Tyler is way WORSE than Wayne Brady in that regard. She's snarky but decidely un-"black" about it. Double standard.]
