Howard Stern on Gabby




So right after the Oscars, radio's favorite douche bag Howard Stern made these comments about Gabby Sidibe (aka Precious).

"There’s the most enormous, fat black chick I’ve ever seen. She is enormous. You feel bad because everyone’s pretending she’s a part of show business and she’s never going to be in another movie,” Stern said. “She really should have gotten the Best Actress award because she’s never going to have another shot. What movie is she gonna be in?”

“‘Blind Side 2,’” Stern suggested. “She could be the football player, take out the whole front line.”

“It’s so sad you want to say to her, listen honey, you got a little money in the bank, go get yourself thin. You’re gonna die. And now she’s famous and she’ll never get another acting job”

Stern, on the air with his co-host Robin Quivers, also played the speech given by Oprah Winfrey to Sidibe at the Oscars on the program. The hosts said Oprah was lying to her by saying she’s going to have a career in Hollywood.”Come on, be honest wit and the girl,” Stern said. “Look in that room. Who else do you look like? Those are the people that work all the time,” Quivers agreed.


Now i'm not going to lie and say i've never cracked some jokes about Gabby. I have. And i "slightly" agree with some things he has said. I dont think shes going to have some break out career b/c of her role in "Precious" because of her weight.But i also think that there are people in Hollywood who don't meet America's standard of beauty and are widely successful. I mean Whoopie Goldberg is a prime example. And i do believe Gabby IS a good actress. "Precious" was a great movie. I'm sure Gabby will be fine in the end. I bet you in a few months she starts loosing weight though...talking about she wants to get "healthy". No you want to get WORK!
