MediaTakeOut.com caught wind that Angie Stone is speaking out about racism and colorism in Hollywood. In a recent interview she made the point that it's difficult for dark skinned Black women to get acting roles. But the .... things went left.

Here's what Angie said:

Well, you know it goes back to the very beginning. If you were light skinned you were in, if you were dark skinned you were out. It very well works that way in the industry.

You see very [few] dark skinned people on top of the game. Most of the superstars are very fair or mullatto people. You can check your stats. It works that way in the film world too. I have lost almost every single opportunity to star in a film to Macy Gray or Jill Scott because theyre light and Im dark.


Umm Angie .. maybe we're blind .... but when did Jill Scott or Macy Gray become light skinned????
