Zoe Saldana Getting Clowned For Trying To Play Nina Simone
Yup.
A good actor is transformative. If Zoe sucks like Madonna (Italian) playing Eva Peron (Argentinian) in Evita then I will understand the uproar. If she is on some Al Pacino (Italian) playing a Cuban, though fictional, then it will be 
. Halle Berry is biracial and played Dorothy Dandridge who was AfrAm where both parents identified as Black and there was no uproar about the biopic (perhaps because they look similar). And Halle as beautiful as she is, is stoic in every movie and one of those actors, like Tom Hanks, who cannot act their way out of a nut sack.
Is complexion or nationality the issue? Had they cast an Amara De Negra-esque type Dominican, would it be an issue? I noticed the issue of nationality appeared with Lupita (Kenyan) in 12 Years as a Slave though Alfred Woodard was also in the movie. Perhaps Zoe wants to expand her acting chops and resume. The script was written by a Jew so I am assuming production and casting is the same way. Bottom line whatever you own and produce you control.

Zoe is a Black woman, not biracial...........that isn't the issue. The issue is that they got a woman with aquiline features (and a wench) to play a woman with broad features.
She's mixed and can't play Nina Simone.
In what fckin world is Zoe Saldana Black? You new age backdoor one drop rule following c00ns.....She's a mixed breed through and through.....and she is a confused one at that which is why she continuesly switches up her stances and married and birthed with a white man...that's where their allegience is in the end, no matter how many times they fool you idiots with a Black Fist and afro..........She can claim "Black" until she loses her voice.........she's not a Black Woman.........I swear you negroes love bringing mixed breeds into the fold and they continue to shyt on us when you do so.....you going to be the death of us....you know damn well why she was cast as Nina Simone......shyt ain't rocket science.......I said it in my thread in the Root.....They purposely have made sure Mixed breeds are replacing our people slowly but surely in every part of society.......and this is just YET ANOTHER example......
I'm lighter then Zoe and I sure as hell ain't mixed. We do come in different colours you know
She is Black and is playing Nina Simone.
Born in Passaic, New Jersey on June 19, 1978, Zoe Saldana grew up in Queens to a mixed ethnic heritage, with her mother being of Puerto Rican descent and her father hailing from the Dominican Republic.
The fck type of dope you new age c00ns are on....^^^^this is Black to you new age nikkas? Dumb c00ns want to now practice the same racist one drop Bullshyt these cacs started, just to make half breeds black in your fantasy world.......

She's mixed--part PR and Dominican-- and is clearly in disturbing blackface so as to make her look actually black like Nina. It's no different than Robert Downey Jr and his blackface --- except no one is going to watch Zoe Saldana shyt on Nina Simones's memory. The joke is on you and her.
She made over 6 figures for this movie while you surf trannies and post dumb things about Black phenotypes....its clear who lost.
I'm lighter then Zoe and I sure as hell ain't mixed. We do come in different colours you know
What are your parents? What are your grandparents?
We're not arguing you're not black....Zoe is NOT BLACK. Her parents are mixed through and through and so is she....."phenotype" is not the basis of this argument.........shyt is not rocket science.......Real Black folks ain't practicing whites one drop rule bullshyt no more, only new age c00ns like @Poitier and the other half breeds in this thread who keep trying to infuse their agenda into people's minds.........."Lighter than" means nothing in the scheme of things. Your offspring will more than likely be darker....means nothing........What is the genetics of your parents is the question........
