On the surface, this seems more like a M/TV board thread, but there's one part in particular that I think makes it OT worthy.

Fox News

quote:

Dee Nguyen has been fired from MTV sports reality show “The Challenge” after making insensitive comments about the Black Lives Matter movement.


quote:

Nguyen, featured in the ongoing season, got into a spat with her social media followers after she posted about “Black Out Tuesday” last week. According to The Ashley, one person responded, “Wake up! People are dying.”


quote:

Nguyen, 27, reportedly responded, “People die every f–king day. U don’t know me or what I do. I suggest you wake the f–k up and get off social media.” She then added, “IDK why some of you think I’m anti-BLM. I’ve been saying that since the day I lost my virginity.




Here's a picture of Dee for your troubles



And a link to her IG for further "research"

they should go back to playing music videos.

100% their ratings would've tripled during the pandemic.

Is it racist to say people die everyday?

So they fired a Vietnamese woman for having an opinion?

MTV is shite anyway. They ceased being relevant 25 years ago.

Girl posts a picture of herself looking hot and lots of dudes tell her how hot she is in the comments or send her DMs.

I've gotten snared in a couple of them myself, as embarrassing as it is to admit.

Seems like posting a black square wasn’t enough.

“You posted a black square, but you failed to kneel and stay on one knee all day. Additionally, there’s no evidence of you kissing boots or washing feet. You’re fired.”

What are thirst traps?

Me too, I usually just bought them drinks at the bar, though.

Good question. I asked it too, and someone explained. Sort of.
