It's disgusting how Dre is being caped for in here. The movie actually downplayed how fukked up that relationship was. When they got together, Dre was 21 and Michel'le was 15. A grown man with four kids took up with a damn child. Michel'le has only partial sight on one of her eyes because of one of Dre's beatings. She has scars on her neck from where he dug his nails into her neck and threw her across the room. Her nose is fukked up because it's been broken so many times that there isn't enough cartilage for the surgeons to craft a normal nose. She was talking about the abuse on R&B Divas in 2013, two years before SOC came out, so I don't get why people are insinuating that she held her tongue in order to cash out. But even if she is trying to get money, so what? She's earned it! Dre destroyed her career and tortured her for 9 years, she is beyond owed something. What gets me is, people on here are caping for Dre but nobody has her problems with her allegations against Suge Knight. If you truly believe that Michel'le is lying, wouldn't you believe that Suge is innocent too? Yet nobody is taking up for him, hmm........
It seems the female contingent in this thread is employing expert level selective reading skill
No sane person in this thread has applauded Dre's history of abuse against women. In fact, many have decried this history and called him out
The issue is how grossly inaccurate the movie was in terms of historically verifiable events
The fact that it seems chronology and fact were not very important in telling "her story"
And when chronology and fact are not very important when telling a story, that is a form of gray propaganda
Look, Dre is
1000 PERCENT WRONG for his abuse of Michele'e. No doubt about that. No person deserves to be manhandled the way this woman allegedly was. If all the things you mention are true, then she endured torturous conditions.
But that does nothing to take away the fact that the movie's narrative was not about telling the story of Michele'e and her life. It was a hit piece on Dre. That's it, that's all. And not even a good one.
And regarding Suge, why is that none of the female contingent are decrying her leaving one abuser to go to another?
And why is none of the female contingent decrying her dating/having a child by one man and then doing the same with his associate/business partner?
Peace
