Well, after listening tonight to her interview... it confirmed alot of my suspicions. First, she said that she left the first time because of friction with Rowell... big suprise. She also gave a spoiler hint that we should expect a hot and heavy love scene next month featuring her BALD HEAD..... oh dear God in heaven, what have we fans done to deserve THIS? After hearing her interact with callers, It's painfully obvious that she doesn't take her work SERIOUSLY. She doesn't have the LOVE, the PASSION, the FIRE IN HER BELLY to be an ACTOR. Of course, we all could tell that from what we see onscreen!! But the more she talks, the more she confirms it. She talked to her uncle a little bit, but otheriwse did NO RESEARCH for the cancer SL. Of course, not.. it would require work and dedication on her part, and we can't have that. Something tell me her "friction" with Rowell might very well be from her lack of professional responsibility. She also said that MANY people had problems with Rowell, too, even crew AND cast. There's obviously no lvoe loss between THOSE TWO. I'm predicting Rowell will fire another shot across Kahlil's bow in less than 24 hours.

That's because I was the one who started the thread, and if I want to expand on a discussion, or go off on a slight tangent, I'll damn well do it. It's not as if I'm giving out cake recipes in this thread...

There's a difference between expansion and repetition.

I'm not saying people on this board don't have the right to their opinions. But when someone asks a question and they get the answer and then they continue to spin said answer into what he/she wants to hear so they can continue to rile up a fanbase, well that sh*t really pisses me off. Throughout this entire thread, you(and y&r_fan and now ZenDULLfan) have been picking and choosing what you want to hear and what you want to see instead of reading the long and quite frankly objective posts about entertainment and race relations.

I usually rarely, if ever, partake in these threads on race. I usually just kind of let everyone else have their opinions and kind of keep mine to myself. But I felt like something HAD to be said, to get you(and anyone else majorly confused about this) to understand that this is not only about Christel's light skin. Again, I encourage you to read what people have posted in this thread(before things got out of hand with comments from SOME people). It's so thoughtful and insightful and I think it does a good job, at least in my opinion, illustrating what a lot of people think.

Yes, you have a black friend. I'm glad you do. But one person does not represent an entire race of people. Just like I don't think "I" can represent black people as a whole. I don't think any one person can. It's a collective whole group of people who hurt and bleed and laugh and smile and at the same time, also have a very complex and interesting history with this country. Black people aren't always banding together and agreeing with everything. But it would help to at least be aware that everyone, even within the black community, has differing opinions and to understand why.

[alphanguy74]

Well, that sound perfectly reasonable. And I want to clarify... when I was leveling criticizm at some people for their attitudes toward light skinned blacks, it certainly wasn't meant as an across the board condemnation of the entire black community (Or even toward posters in this thread). It was meant as a criticizm for those who are guilty of it... and nobody else. I totally know that all black people aren't the same as my friend, or as Christel. My my point was to get people to think and consider what kind of consequences not sticking together can have on a minority group. Look how the gay community made huge strides in short time when they banded together to fight a common enemy, AIDS. That was the thrust of my point, and my discussing things at great length comes not from me trying to piss people off, but form my love of DEBATE. I think I'm a frustrated politicain or lawyer at heart, I just love to debate. Just try not to take it personally when I go over the top to drive a point home. Gay men can be prone to Histrionics, you know.

I don't think bellcurve was critcizing your for that, just stating a fact. But at that cake recipes line.

Where to begin...

(C.) "Pimp all things bad about Y&R"? When was the last time you saw me praising the likes of Hayley Erin, Thom Bierdz, Amelia Heinle, Vail Bloom and Hogan Sheffer? THEY are the bad things about Y&R - not Tammin.
(D.) I have been watching Y&R since the 90s and have been posting on soap boards since 2005, so why would I stop just because Tammin is gone?

C... Thank God the horrible Tammin was fired being that she clearly stunk up the screen!
D... Wishful thinking?

I can't believe this thread is still going either. And I especially can't believe all of this "race" crap.

Need we remind you of your infamous Australian racism?

Are you kidding me? Please, I implore you to quote any one of my posts in this thread that is advocating racial stereotypes. I dare ya.

Umm... the fact that you launched into a malicious, unprovoked tirade when I put forward the idea that maybe skin color doesn't dictate personality?

Quote

As for idiocy, please, GO THERE! I double dog dare ya.

Okay. You are an idiot. Period. There's no way around it. It's the only way to describe someone who feels so threatened by opinions that conflict with their own that they throw a world-class tantrum, making a complete ass of themself in the process.

Oh and I wouldn't give you that project without at least reminding you a few of those ridiculous, idiotic, ignorant(!) things you've said in this thread.

How was what I said ignorant?

Quote

Anyway, I'm done feeding your sado-masochistic need for disapproval.

And in a single sentence you have clearly demonstrated that you know NOTHING about me or my posts.

This thread hasn't been on track for about 5 or 6 pages.

What is with the rudeness towards posters who have a dissenting opinon?

Wow, I have no word. y&R fan has as much right to post here as anyone. I don't get what concern it is of yours? I know speaking for myself I'm tired of the bullying that goes on towards certain posters on this board, alphanguy, and y&r fan both got bullied in this thread by a select few.

Personally I hope this thread gets closed, cause it's not even about the original topic anymore

THANKYOU.

I'm not going to argue with you. I would feel guilty. You're obviously at a disadvantage... you know, mentally.

You're right. Our heritage has absolutely nothing to do with our personalities. Right on the money.

The only thing you got right there was my post was world class. In no way did I throw a "tantrum" nor do I feel threatened by differing opinions. But there's a difference between giving an opinion and making comments. You have yet to give a fleshed out opinion in this thread.

What's clear is that you so do NOT have my number, it's not even funny.

I never knew Khalil was biracial. I always thought her family was from India.

I hope TPTB drop the protesters like hot potatoes. Even if they don't bring VR back. Even if one of them is MS and even if another is LeBlanc. It's wrong to create turmoil for someone AND protest when they might come back, using said turmoil as an excuse.

[CarlD2]

Even if they all leave, I can't see Rowell being rehired. I'm sure Rauch in particular would never let her on the set, and Sony probably isn't that fond of her either. Their behavior the past year shows they are more than willing to keep popular actors off the show if it fits the bottom line.
