@LaneeDaDiva If you think Gabby Sidibe is big, she doesn't even come close to the 'real' Precious described in 'Push'. The 'real' Precious is as tall as 6'7" and weighs up to 400 lbs. with a skin complexion dark enough to match new black clothes sold in department stores. I guess they couldn't find any 6'7", 400-lb., black-complected women who could perform as well as Gabby, lol!
@jessejames1729 Look what happened to Sandra Bullock after she won the Best Actress Oscar...Her husband cheated on her...In a sense, if Gabby Sidibe won the Oscar, the 'Oscar curse' may come upon her like it did to Sandra Bullock...
@glennrickard1958 hey retard he didnt cheat after hes been cheating for years,get a clue before you respond, why r u sticking up for this fat load anyways
Darwin? lol I think Flabby Gabby is the missing link. I feel bad for the people who had to sit next to this horrid 'girl'. My god, the smell of chicken grease alone must have been nauseating.
In today's PC world, we're supposed to act as if this silverback gorilla is beautiful and talented, simply because it makes ugly negro women feel like it's ok for them to be so hideous. Sad.
Your booty is bleeding and you fucked motherfucker who defend shit like this,now tell your mother the next time she suck my dick again,to please take out her teeth.Spell check that you shit tossing little pink booty monkey.
movie is very raw, i criedd, laughed, was in shock, I had nightmares about moniqes character. She must of went to a dark place as actress for that role. Precious is a very strong protaginist, not sure how many people could survive a situation like that is real life and still fee" here"

anyone else bothered by the fact that a story meant to honor the plight of its protagonist and girls like her decided that it couldn't be bothered to cast and work patiently with an actress going through the same struggles in real life?
be honest (if u read the book), could you imagine working with someone who been thru that??? i mean, it IS a film, if im an actor, i dont want to do the an actress what PRECIOUS went thru for real...kina cruel, no?
lalaleeka (part one): i'll be honest, "pathetic" kind of hurts. my comment wasn't meant to be a blanket condemnation of artistic portrayals of disability just for the fact that their actors are rarely disabled in real life. while i can empathize with the frustration of the blind and deaf community over the recent casting of the girl from little miss sunshine as helen keller, for example,
Do you understand the concept of ACTING? This is why Flabby Gabby isn't a good actor - she isn't acting at all, she's playing herself, which anyone could do.
You haven't seen any interviews with Gobourey do you? For your information she is a very lively, happy and funny person. The only reason you say she is playing herself is because we want to see big people to be unhappy and depressed. We are influenced by the media that we can only be happy if we are a certain body type. If you are not that way you have to change. FUCK THAT SHIT!
Next time if you want to bash somebody do some research first!
lalaleeka (continued): i also see the importance for the production's financial success in securing a well-known actress instead of a lesser known one from the actual blind or deaf communities. what upset me about this interview was the dismissal that sapphire seemed to show for the abilities and potential of the kind of girl that she writes about. but i haven't read "push," so maybe her dismissal is justified! i don't know. i hope it isn't. what do you think?
Okay, I've never been big on Katie Couric, but I really didn't care for how she kept dissing on Gabourey's looks in such an obvious fashion! She could have commented that she isn't a "contemporary beauty" or is a "departure from the cover-girl norm". She basically called Gabourey butt-ugly, which she isn't! I think Katie was overcompensating for her own feelings of aesthetic inferiority to the up-and-coming young dames of journalism. SOUR GRAPES!!!!!!!!!
This is a voice for every young person Male or female that has been in those same shoes. It is hope and it is light for those who don't think anyone cares...
katie "yeah cuz she looks much difference than most actresses that we come to". really katie!? and i thought i was bryant who the obnoxious one!

i think that's a pathetic outlook.
it's like condemning the actor who plays Artie in Glee because he is not disabled in real life.
you cannot just push pure talent to the side because of one characteristic that does not fall into line.
the film's budget did not allow it to just visit neighbourhood to find a girl who best resembled the character of precious.
i think the casting was held decently; if you're going to combat the actress, Gabourey Sidibe, then why not condemn the casting of Mo'nique?

WRONG! Gabby's personality is 180 degrees away from Precious. This is what makes her such a fine actress: she actually is ACTING!
