This video believe is the usual response. A whole lot of sistas are upset. What's the problem? They seem happy, they love each other, what's the problem?
Let's also look at the hypocrisy. Jodie Turner Smith did the same exact thing and was lauded for it. 'go gurl, get that zaddy'. And that white man (Joshua Jackson) did it on national tv, not some small platform. No one said a word.
Finally, it was taken fully out of context. He was asked does mean you were the prize when he talked about how they met. He agreed. Its the truth. Simone wanted that man, got him. She's actually way richer than him. He went to a small college (MissouriWestern), was undrafted, made the squad of a couple sides and it wasn't till a couple years ago he made any kind of real money (1.175 million 2 year contract). Simone is worth around 15 million more or less by some estimates.
Bottom line is if they are both happy, so what? Before all this, no one was saying shyt. They wanted her to get a white man. That's really it. Gymastics, tennis, figure skating, swimming, sports where there are overwhelmingly white in America, sisters sometimes date who they are around.
Simone wanted a brotha, got the one she wanted, and everyone mad....except Simone.
