Halle Berry whose black woman was playing a white woman on her new movie and she was convincing. It's all about make up...they can change skin tone and everything. Actors are playing parts in a movie

I've never read the retard comment, but I think she called him racist since most of the time a lot of people write disgusting comments to her about her skin colour so she probably just acts outt..

yeah I know she's half black and half white. But she also played a chinese man in the movie as well. All I'm saying is that actors can play any character they want, it's just make up doing the talking

She's jumping to conclusions.. calling the person racist is not calld for. Do we really know the person was being racist? I don't think the person meant any harm by it.. they were just stating what they thought was right.. she could have tweeted back nicely.

Obviouslly color plays a part in roles.. if someone is gonna play Oprah on screen.. am sure they won't get a white actress to play her. Now, if someone speaks against that.. I don't see how that's being racist.

Agreed!

i think people have started over using, rather misusing the term of racism- any comment on skin color and the ultimate defense is calling him a racist! i think the person was pointing an integral thing and like you mentioned skin color do play a role- agree with the oprah example here! celebs need to losen up a little before yelling at them and calling them racist/retard etc!
