Exclusive: Gabourey Sidibe Sounds Off On #OscarsSoWhite

Published: Thursday 3rd Mar 2016 by Sam

Sunday night saw the ‘#OscarsSoWhite’ debate explode to new decibels when Chris Rock hosted the 2016 Academy Awards.

The comic took a head-on approach to addressing the issue of racial diversity (or the lack-thereof) in Hollywood.

Similarly candid about the matter was Gabourey Sidibe, who we caught up with recently.

The actress, whose role in ‘Precious’ saw her become the 8th black female (ever) to be nominated for the Best Actress Oscar, vented her frustration but also seemed optimistic about the future.

Hit “PLAY” to watch Gabby wax honest with TGJ’s Jacqueline Shepherd above.
