Amaru Posted September 27, 2022 Posted September 27, 2022 Maybe it's for the best she take an extended break. Just saw some video of her crying and dancing to some coco song and it was unsettling.

Afro Latinos are not the only ethnic Latinos lol they clearly have a mix of Spaniard and native Taino’s and who knows what else. Some even have Lebanese and African too so she could have that. They don’t look Anglo. They look like your average Puerto Ricans to me. I have family from Ponce. Jlo is far from a Cameron Diaz

There's white and black Latinos... fun fact, Dominicans get discriminated in Puerto Rico due to colorism. https://www.theguardian.com/world/2019/oct/10/police-violence-against-dominicans-in-puerto-rico-suggests-systemic-problem “We had a case of a Puerto Rican in Caguas who was beaten because he was black. They thought he was Dominican because for the police, there are no black men here. If you’re black, it’s because you’re Dominican.” There is racism and colorism everywhere but to say Puerto Ricans are more white is stupid as hell. They are just as mixed up as Dominicans. Puerto Ricans have had their own racial struggles in America too and many are black mixed. Have you even been to Puerto Rico? There are many black looking ones. Just as Cubans have their damn nerves acting so white washed when Cuba has soooo many Afro Cubans. Dominicans also have their own set of racism too and they act like they aren’t black so there’s issue there as well

Hence the quote from an actual person who lives in the island and gets to experience that every day. Another thing about Puerto Rican culture is giving nicknames based on skin color. Jlo would not be called "negra" or even "negrita", yknow, the nicknames people give out in the island to PoC. She'd be called "hincha." The Puerto Ricans that I talk to, who live on the island, would be laughing at the notion of Jlo considered a PoC, especially compared to local celebrities over there like Romeo Santos or Amara La Negra They all know she gets tanned to play on the notion that Latino = exotic. Hopefully that answers your question regarding whether I've been to Puerto Rico. But I'm done talking about this anyway cuz it's getting OT.
besaid Posted September 28, 2022 Posted September 28, 2022 She can make her points without constantly using POC's as examples of people who had it easier than her. JLo had a tough childhood. She made it in the industry as a Latina in the early 90s. The racist South Park JLo ep is as bad as any media bullying Britney received. Britney doesn't have a valid excuse.

Unknown User Posted September 28, 2022 Posted September 28, 2022 This is an industry that abused her for several years and ruined her life so these feelings are understandable. She doesn’t owe you anything

She needs people around that have her best interest in mind at all times.
LanaXtinaFan Posted September 28, 2022 Posted September 28, 2022 She is literally losing her mind right in front of our eyes. I’m sure she’s been this way for a long time but now that she’s out of the conservatorship… girl is spiraling. Damn.

He was like a computer engineer or whatever. lol okay Ot.

She seems To be very much attn seeking at this point. so what is it. Is the ent biz evil or not? Edited September 28, 2022 by manwhore

Puerto Ricans are just delusional in their colorism. No she is not Afro Latino but she is still OBVIOUSLY Not just white. The fact that American media used to make piles of jokes about her being Latino should be proof enough. We aren’t talking about Puerto Rico and it’s backwards ass ways we are talking about the globe and globally she is known as a LATINA not a caucasian woman. So give it up. Stand her next to your average American white woman and she sure as hell doesn’t blend in. She may have fairerish skin but her features are obviously Latina so stop trying to erase her heritage you sound ridiculous.

No point going over it with them.

The other day i heard a recording of Britney telling her boys they are against her bc they were brainwashed by kfed and her family. Was that also a fake fan made Britney sound bite ? So much fairy tales being generated in the fandom that one doesn’t even know what is real and what is not. is she atheist or not? She also claimed this in this recording but see no thread about it. Nothing is real. Everything is real. It’s like the army is intentionally blurring the line intentionally. Edited September 28, 2022 by manwhore

Glad she’s free but she needs to seek help because this is not normal behavior for a 40 year old woman.
1989 Posted September 29, 2022 Posted September 29, 2022 Britney needs therapy. Not the harmful kind her family/team was trying to force her into, but therapy of her choosing with someone she’s comfortable with and trusts. I sincerely hope she gets that soon, because I feel like it would do so much for her.

Anyways, She's traumatised and i get it. But she's also very angry which is also justifiable. I do feel like she needs a very long vacation with social media pause. You need to heal now Britney.
memi stan Posted September 29, 2022 Posted September 29, 2022 While I really don’t think Britney was shading Jlo the comparison makes no sense. Jlo never had any type of public breakdown. If she feels the need to compare she should have picked someone else to compare herself to.
Bey Admired Posted September 29, 2022 Posted September 29, 2022 She needs help, not encouragement or criticism. Just mental help. I sincerely hope she receives it because her insta posts are erratic.
mylicious Posted September 29, 2022 Posted September 29, 2022 So I guess the Elton song was a gift for her fans!
