CL ROUND THE WAY LINKS: NAOMI CAMPBELL OFFENDED BY UK AD / BERNICE KING STEPS DOWN FROM EDDIE LONG’S CHURCH / T.I. + MORE!

I dont find that ad offensive. http://tiny.cc/bb13l

I’m glad Bernice King stepped down from that church and the church’s members should force Bishop Long to resign from his position. I believe in forgiveness but I also believe that people should be accountable for their own actions. Since he brought embarrassment to his church and cheated on his wife with teenage boys he should be let go.

I saw the add and yes it is offensive to use Naomi’s name in that add without them running it by her first for er approval or offering to pay her for an endorsement.

lol, there is nothing wrong or “racist” about that ad, Naomi, she’s just mad because ppl are finally seeing what a screwball she is.

T.I only does these “good” things when he is in prison then he gets out then he goes in again kmt

I can’t believe she is upset about that and didn’t care TMZ printed those pics of her ate out edges… I wonder if it were the “Snicker” commercial would she be offended?

I’m so tired of TI… His accent and everything. I use to be a fan until I found out he is and always will be a knuckle head… I want him to GO AWAY!!! No one but Tiny misses him when he is locked up.

Kudos to Berniece. I am glad someone in that church has the good sense to hold that man responsible for his actions!!!!!

I don’t know why people feel it necessary to tell Naomi how to feel. If she feels disrespected, than that’s her right. I don’t know why black people like being referenced or referred to food. There is no ‘chocolate’ or ‘caramel’ color in the crayola box, and not everyone wants or likes to be referred to as “yummy chocolate.” I can understand the undertones she saw in this ad. A chocolate bar, and diamonds, ie her skin and her issues with blood diamonds.

No matter how crazy she has acted in her life, doesn’t mean anyone has the right to call her every word in the curse book. And speaking as an American, Americans need to understand that their perspective and thoughts are not all mirrored across the word. Just because you are called chocolate in the us doesn’t mean that is the norm, or a compliment in the UK. It isn’t. Recognize this and try to think outside of the box.
