Father Knowles Best
This is hilarious. Matthew Knowles, father of Beyoncé, says his daughter lost to Meryl Streep for the Best Actress Golden Globe because of racism. "Today is MLK's birthday," he said, "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." Yeah, Jennifer Hudson and Eddie Murphy had a long way to go – from their seats to the stage to pick up their awards. (JesusHeartsMusic)

Then how does he explain Jennifer Hudsons win? A fluke??? I hate when people pull the minority card! Get over it!

Dear Mr Knowles,
Perhaps your daughter didn't win because she had 8 singles out last year, perhaps its her inability to act, or perhaps its her "Holier than thou" attitude. Whatever the case may be...SHUT THE FUCK UP!
Sincerely,
Jaydee

Sorry, Beyoncé. You just weren't black enough to qualify for the extra "minority" points.
