What the hell is going on The old guy?
The drama of Matt Jamesthis season– currently airing, he’s the show’s first Black Bachelor despite the fact that the franchise has been running for more than two decades – it has been obscured by online controversy. Here are the abbreviated ones: Rachel KirkConnell, a top-three contestant in James’s season, posted photos three years ago at an antebellum-themed party that incites the justifiable allegations of racism from Bachelor Nation. Rachel Lindsay, the first Black Bachelorette, asked the host Chris Harrison about the incident, and he put his foot straight in his mouth and essentially referred to the fact that the photo was probably good because it was taken in 2018 and not in 2021. “I’m not the vigilant police,” he offered. KirkConnell apologized. Harrison did the same and announced that he and ABC decided to remove him from the episode “After the Final Rose” of this season, as it has not yet been filmed. Next week, James published his own statement, writes, “To see how Chris does not receive and understand the emotional labor that my friend Rachel Lindsay undertook by graciously and patiently declaring the racist history of the Antebellum South, a painful history that every American would intimate had to understand, was disturbing and painful to look at. ”
Former participants in The old guy and The Bachelorette their support shown for James. TMZ reported that ABC can employ someone who does not even exist The old guy world for the presentation of the episode “After the Final Rose” for Harrison, because Rachel Lindsay apparently said no.
On Monday, however, Lindsay addressed KirkConnell’s on her ‘Bachelor Happy Hour’ podcast with ‘You almost feel like you know everything you need to know in the picture. The fact that this is what she decided to do … Her apology was well written, it was beautiful and it was sincere. I’m not going to knock on anyone’s apology. But then the next step is to take action. She also said she wants the former soccer star, writer and host of the web program Uncomfortable conversations with a black man Emmanuel Acho to fill in for Harrison, but shouldn’t he just take over the series at that point? Someone else should, at least, because the franchise has fallen. Goodbye, Degree students. [TMZ]
G / O Media can get a commission
In completely surprising news – The Hollywood Foreign Press Association, the committee responsible for the nomination / vote for The Golden Globe Awards– admitted that it does not have a single black member. But, According to The Los Angeles Times, they are ‘committed to addressing the issue of diversity’. Big.
Do you remember #OscarsSoWhite? Looks like it’s time for #GoldenGlobesSoWhite. Now the I may destroy you snub makes sense – just like the fact that this year’s Black led Oscar contenders as Da 5 bloods, Ma Rainey’s Black Bottom, en Judas and the Black Messiah, did not receive the best picture nominations.
