By: Myra PanacheThis black male celebrity has instructed his staff over the years to keep his “black family members” away from him. Why? Because they are black.
Before he married his white ex-wife, without his knowledge, she made a visit to his family’s home, trying to make a good impression and to get to know them. He exploded when he found out, he asked her, ‘why on earth would you want to associate with trash?’ She was so disturbed by his self-hatred during the marriage, she still refuses to take his calls.
When he did associate with his family, he was color struck and always treated the light skinned relatives better than the darker relatives. He would make himself available to the lighter skinned family members but the darker skinned relatives were not allowed at his home. This was before he cut off association with everyone.
To make matters worse, around white celebrities, he refers to blacks in negative terms and asks, aren’t they disgusting?
When African-Americans applied for job openings at his entertainment company, he instructed his white rep, as soon as they leave, throw their application in the garbage.
Not only are blacks offended by his behavior, so are whites, they find it unusual and scary for a black man to talk about his race like this.
All blind items are written by Myra Panache or her staff. No, I do not know what the answer is, after all it is called a Blind Item. Please contact Myra if you have any questions. Thank you.
OJ SIMPSON
This one is easy….
Laurence Fishburne
I don’t have the slightest idea
are you serious Bill?
WOW @ whoever it is..CL is addicting..I need to go to class.
yeah, laurence fishburne for sure..
why have you both guessed him? What have you heard?
Laurence Fishburn is married to a black woman. Are you people insane? Anyway, I’ll bet it’s Quincy Jones.
yea i think it is who number 2 said, i remember reading somewhere he made a comment about his mom and not buying her a house because she didnt work to become rich he did
Michael jackson, anyone? I love me some mike, but just saying …
archuleta im in the computer lab in school too!

Naw, I doubt it’s Laurence Fishburn, maybe Tiger Woods.
Im thinkin its Quincy Jones
actually lawrence fishbourne is a good guess but does he have an entertainment company?
My guess was wayne brady. I honestly don’t know though.
Bill, yes she is. She is Afro-Cuban.

Bill Said:
I’m THINK it may be Laurence Fishburne.
I’m basing my speculation on his relationship with his MOTHER.
Laurence Fishburne is the ONLY Black Man I know that DOESN’T SPEAK TO HIS MOTHER.
She been trying to make contact with her for YEARS, but whenever she shows up at his door, he tells his staff to send her away…
He won’t take her phone calls or read her letters…
No one know why…
Bill, his wife Gina Torres IS a BLACK woman. White she’s an AMERICAN Black….she’s a BLACK Cuban, I believe. Black is a race…and we are all over.
Why doesn’yt Myra Punnany get a life? Every one of her blind items is either exposing some Black man who does other Black people wrong or some Black woman who she’s trashing. We don’t need that. We got CL for that. And their items ain’t even blind!
*While
Oh but wait. Didn’t lawrence fishbourne play the problack lightskinnned hating guy in school daze? yeah he did.
I dunno I’m lost on this one.
i don’t know about this one…i was thinking CUBA but i know that could be wrong.
i gotta see school daze. i hear it’s a great movie.
i’ll have to say Bill Cosby, because that man alwayz down playin blacks and saying they the reason why America is the way it is, i bet when he around his white friends he be haming it up about the blacks, i mean that a shame people have no respect for their own race.

Bill Said:
Okay..Scratch Lawrence Fishburne off the list……
I think He is one of our GREATEST Actors, but in real life he seems like a jerk (how can someone hate their own mother…).
These blind items have gotten so old. Always the same themes.
Black man who hates being balck
Black man who is abusive
Black woman who id high on drugs
Black woman who sleeps around.
Real old… real quick.

Bill Said:
You can tell she is some angry lesbian with a laptop computer !!!.
You ever notice how she states that she has contacts in the gay escort industry….
Let me not piss her off, before she digs up a expose on me…
These blind items are all the same. A black man who hates black women!!!
These must be written by a white woman!!!
They dont even sound legit!!
So her name being Gina Torres means she’s not black? Why don’t you google homegirl and then see if you can actually come back with a straight face and tell me she isn’t a black woman. Or are you one of those people who never learned about West Africans being dropped off in the Carribbean?
ok wait…the blind item said he has a white ex-wife. laurence fishburne never had a white wife. OJ does not have an entertainment company so that eliminates him. bill cosby has only been married once and to a very light-skinned black woman AND he has always supported blacks in entertainment IF they met his intelligence requirement, so that rules him out….now…who’s left?
“how can someone hate their own mother…”
What if his mother abused the hell out of him as a child? Everyone doesn’t know how to forgive. I don’t know if that rumor about him and his mother is true but there are plenty of reasons why some men resent their moms. And I suspect these whack ass baby mommas that prevent their children from having relationships with the father (regardless of how much child support he pays) are potentially breeding a new generation of men like that. But I see where you’re going. I’ve never been in a relationship with a man that didn’t have a good relationship with his mother. There’s a good reason for that.
Bill Said:

Yes, she is. She was just born to Spanish speaking parents, just like Christina Milian.

Bill Said:
If YOU ever meet a man, and he HATES his Mother or has a bad relationship with his Mother or Sisters, RUN !!!!
I think it’s Terrence Howard
I don’t know about this one, I’m not sure about Laurence Fishburne because I don’t know much about his background, but if what everyone is saying about his mother is true then that is really, really, sad. There is only one person on this earth that will love you 100% unconditionally, no matter what you look like, sound like, if you are fat, skinny, short or tall and that is your MOTHER. I would NEVER, EVER, EVER, date or marry a man who hated his mother. You can tell a lot about a man by the way he treats his moms and other women in his life, if he hates his mama, that is a HUGE RED FLAG!!!!
I went through a period when i couldn’t speak to my mom because ish happens that is hard to forget. we cool now……..but im surprised you loopers didnt figure this out yet

Calm down cutie…
Ok..Gina Torres is BLACK !!!
When I see a person whose last name is SPANISH, I automatically assume they are spanish.
BUT, as missliz point out, she Afro Cuban, so I WAS WRONG…I APOLOGIZE !!!
Are your panties all bunched up now ???
I usually don’t post in these I just read them but to put some info out there. Larry or shall I say Laurence (changing name once you think people are stereotyping you) is probably the most logical choice b/c he does have a very strange relationship w/his mother and his first wife and mother of his children is a white woman. I used to be one of his biggest fans until the name change and the reason he stated changing the name back in 1994…..
for some reason as I read this the name of Cuba Gooding jr kept coming to my mind…
For the last mothafuckin’ time Laurence Fishburne’s wife is BLACK. Her Spanish last name is supposed to indicate she’s not Black??!! How fuckin’ stupid! I assure you I an not British despite my last name. I’m guessing Shaq O’Neal is not Irish. Come on people, let go of the ignorance. Please!
Man, we need more hints. It doesn’t say whether the guy is an actor, athlete, singer? Could we get an age estimation? Middle aged? Thirtysomething? Knocking-on-death’s-door? What? Are they a household name? Behind-the-scenes? Award-winning? Are they remarried?
Come on, we need more clues. There is not much to go on here. The biggest clue is that they own an entertainment company and are divorced from a white woman. *Sigh*…
@#29- I hate to say it, but you’re a complete MORON.

Okay..whatever you say Holly !!!
For anyone who does not know his marriage to Gina Torres is his SECOND marriage. He was first married to a white woman back in the 80′s to which he has a son and a daughter by…..
Hmmm I like Terrence Howard for this too. any takers?
The first person I thought about was Micheal Jackson, but who knows? Never thought of Laurence Fishburne… he’s married to Black woman now, was he married before to a White woman before? And Quincy Jones… that’s a good guess because all he ever dates is White women but that would be crazy seeing as how his career was built out of working with Black artists… I don’t know.

Bill Said:
Laurence Fishburn WAS married to a white woman at one point….
No need to apologize.
Now… Was the profanity really necessary ?? Be careful what you say, because I’ll send Angel.la a email and have you banned !!!
What !
Lawrence Fishburn is married to a Cuban, So I dont believe its him, I have no ideal this is a hard one.
# 36 Chistina Milian is Cuban also.
This one is good is it Brian Gumble LOL
I think it’s Giancarlo Esposito..because he resented black folks after his mother abandoned him as a child. His current wife is white. I don’t know if he has an ex-wife.
hahahaa..wait a sec..it could be Bryant Gumbel! Good guess! Or Terrence Howard! The way Terrence coons on the big-screen makes me wonder if he hates his own people.
damn everyone relax lol BILL KNOWS HE MADE A MISTAKE. he didn’t know Gina Torres was black. end of discussion lol
I can see this topic might veer off subject but I can’t just let the ignorance go. #54, yes Gina Torres is Cuban and yes Christina Milian is. That doesn’t negate what #36 said. They are both Cubans of African decent. Speaking spanish does not erase the black genes from a person. Cuban is not a race, neither is Hispanic. There are black, white and Native(Asian) Hispanics and all things in between (various mixtures.) Please stop being ignorant people. We are all adults and there is no excuse for this any longer.
MizzLizz, you called it like 40 posts back – “this should definitely spark up some interesting debate.”
Some people just cannot let sh!t go! They must be heard, even when no one wants to hear them.
C Loopers:
When you get a minute,
Google “Blacks who hate Blacks”…
There was some really interesting data there !!!
**nothing to answer THIS question, but interesting nevertheless
*** You KNOW me..I eat that type of stuff up !!!
