Jamie Fox Miley Cyrus Rant...He should be ashamed (actor, Radiohead, Comedy)

[blackandproud]

I understand comedy but this is sad....Jamie Foxx should be ashamed of himself for this statement about a young girl.

Jamie Foxx unleashes crude Miley Cyrus rant - Celebrities- msnbc.com

OH my gosh, what a jerk. She's a child and he's a grown man and especially given the fact that he has a teen daughter you would think he would know better.

Exactly. If this statement was made on a "PoP" radio station about a young minority celebrity (not too many around) then there would have been an uproar. As a mother (black one of course) I'm offended and disgusted.

I think Jamie Foxx is a good actor, but he has always come across as a jerk to me for some reason. this goes beyond being a jerk and is just plain mean.

I have never been impressed with Miley Cyrus and the overexposure she enjoys.

I reserve judgment until I find out more about the context in which these comments were made. I like Jamie Foxx.

I dont care for Miley, She's not catering to my age group, But Jamie shouldn't have said that. He has a young daughter himself. He really needs to get a life. Dumb Ass

His vicious mockery and snide gutter talk are a sad example that exemplifies what is wrong with (fill in the blank with the politically correct label for his cultural milieu, breeding, and maturity). And shame on his fawning audience for applauding this behavior.

Miley Cyrus is a spoiled brat to the bazillionth power - they were discussing a comment she made when Radiohead refused to meet with her after she had her "people" summon them for her presentation. When she found out that they rejected meeting with her, she is said to have made a comment about planning to "ruin" Radiohead for their snub. Seriously?

Not saying that Jamie Foxx was right in the things he (and his crew) said, but this isn't about him picking a target out of thin air and making a bunch of silly comments. The fact is, Miley needs to realize that she doesn't get everything her way just because of "Hannah Montana". Shame on her weird folks for not trying to trim down her overly heightened sense of entitlement.

Agree. She was definitely "overexposed" in the May 2008 Vanity Fair spread sanctioned by Billy Ray. She posed as an adult, she can expect to be treated like one. There's a lengthy thread on this subject over on Politics forum.
