Gabourey Sidibe Gives A Kick-Ass Response To Her “Empire” Body Shamers


If you watched this week’s episode of Empire, you know the show wasted no time in getting straight down to business. Business, meaning sex. Becky, played by Gabourey Sidibe, had a romantic moment with her never seen before new beau and he kept her in quite the compromising position.

Not going to lie, the scene caught me off guard.

I happily moved on, excited that Becky was getting her back broke. Then the tomfoolery rolled in.

“I, a plus sized, dark-skinned woman, had a love scene on primetime television. I had the most fun ever filming that scene even though I was nervous. But I felt sexy and beautiful and I felt like I was doing a good job. I’m very proud of the work we all did to make that scene a great opening for the episode. I keep hearing that people are “hating” on it. I’m not sure how anyone could hate on love but that’s okay. You may have your memes. Honestly, I’m at work too busy to check Twitter anyway. #Booked. Hope you enjoy next week’s show!”
