OSCARS SO WHITE SUPPORTER CHARLOTTE RAMPLING SAYS OSCAR OUTCRY FROM BLACKS IS RACIST AGAINST WHITES

Get a good look at this crazy old bat.  Looking like the old white man from “BAPs” had the nerve to fix her mouth to say it’s racism against whites to include black nominees.  Here’s more on this foolery below…

In stark contrast to fellow Oscar nominee Mark Ruffalo’s comments yesterday, Charlotte Rampling thinks that the Oscar diversity outcry is “racist against whites.”

The British screen icon, who’s up for best actress for her role in the marital drama “45 Years,” said during an interview on Friday morning with French radio station Europe 1 that the campaign to boycott the Feb. 28 ceremony is racist in and of itself.

“It is racist against whites,” she said. “One can never really know, but sometimes maybe black actors did not deserve to make the final list.”

Rampling, an Academy member, also implied that she wouldn’t support the Academy’s introduction of quotas. AMPAS may revamp Oscar categories and overhaul membership requirements as controversy grows over 2016’s list of acting nominees.  

“Why classify people? We live now in countries where anyway people are more or less accepted,” the first-time Academy Award nominee said. “There are always problems: ‘He’s less handsome’ or ‘He’s too black’ or ‘He’s too white.’ There will always, always be someone who will say, ‘Oh, you’re too…’ What are we going to do? We’re going to classify all that to create thousands of little minorities everywhere?

When the interviewer said black actors feel like a minority in the film industry, Rampling replied “no comment.”

Rampling is one of 20 white actors nominated for an Oscar, which has prompted outcry about Hollywood’s growing diversity problem. Will Smith, Jada Pinkett Smith and Spike Lee have said they’ll be sitting out the upcoming ceremony, while Lupita Nyong’o, George Clooney, David Oyelowo, Will Packer and others have criticized the show, which spawned the trending hashtag “Oscars So White.”

Academy President Cheryl Boone Isaacs said in a statement on Monday that the Academy “is taking dramatic steps to alter the makeup of our membership” to address the issue, while former prexy Hawk Koch called on Hollywood to push diversity in an open letter released Thursday.

Her comments are no shocker, and are typical of most privileged old white folks.  She probably hasn’t seen any of the films featuring lead black actors, yet felt the need to comment about who is or isn’t deserving.  A clear picture of the makeup of the Academy.  Screw the Oscars.  They stole P’tah and we’ll steal him back.

Oh, and Miss Lupita also stole the show and was proclaimed “Best Dressed” at the BAFTA award show. She took her mother as her date to the award show. Look how stunning they look.
