I Have Something In Common With Howard Stern… Other Than Being Part Of The Tribe

I took some heat for my article the other day about how much fabric it took to make Precious star, Gabourey Sidibe’s dress for the Oscars. I wasn’t the only one thinking bad thoughts about Sidibe’s obvious weight problem, Howard Stern had quite a few things to say about the actress… as did Joy Behar, and Brett Michaels.
“There’s the most enormous, fat black chick I’ve ever seen. She is enormous,” Stern ranted. “Everyone’s pretending she’s a part of show business and she’s never going to be in another movie.
“She should have gotten the Best Actress award because she’s never going to have another shot. What movie is she gonna be in?”
The shock jock knocked Winfrey, who praised Sidibe at the Academy Awards on Sunday night and said she was sure the actress would have a long, fruitful career.
“Oprah’s another liar, a filthy liar,” Stern, 56, said. “She’s telling an enormous woman the size of a planet that she’s going to have a career.”

In the fat actress’s defense… no, not Kirstie Alley, she actually has some great things in the near future for her. I wasn’t knocking her career like he did, but I can see where he was coming from. He was wrong though saying she’s never going to be in another movie because she is set to star in the upcoming feature film Yelling To The Sky. According to “Access Hollywood,” Sidibe is also set to have a recurring part in Showtime’s new dark comedy series, The Big C.
