Ok told you my son was an eye witness MTV NEWS !!!
I've Asked him again so more information NOW : were present in this interview :
- Foxi Brown
- Lil Kim
- Eliott Missy
- Faith Evans
- ...
- and Miss HILL ....
SO NOW ... HOW COMES THAT YOU CAN FIND WEB SITES OR PROOFS LIKE THAT
I guess THAT COST HER A LOT A MONEY ... and a lot of FOLLOWERS
DO YOU HAVE AN OTHER REASON ? ... (unless they made a fake interview, with someone else talking for her while they were showing her face ???) -

Okay, if he can remember the names of the people that where there can he remember what was actually said? So far all you have presented are allegations and nothing else.
What exactly did Lauryn Say?....
Use a little common sense if Lauryn had said that don’t you think that the video of that broadcast would be widely circulated?
Lots of people were claiming that Lauryn was racist after an interiview with Hill had her saying "I'd rather see my kids starve than have a white person buy my album". These rumours were cleared up, and found to be untrue. Mtv even denied it see article below:
However, as "Killing me Softly" climbed the charts, a potentially career-ending rumor arose that threatened to send Lauryn into a downward spiral. During the summer of 196, a caller to shock jock Howard Stern's radio show said on the air that he's heard Lauryn tell MTV that she'd rather see her child starve than have a white kid buy her album. MTV would announce that the allegation wasn't true, but by that time it was too late. The ugly, false rumor had already been set in motion.
"From this one broadcast, all of a sudden people who appreciated my music thought there was something wrong with who I was and what I represented," says Lauryn. Instead of letting a publicist act on her behalf, Lauryn, furious and very hurt, called a radio station herself to deny the charge. "I said, 'How can I possibly be a racist? My music is universal music. And I believe in God. If I believe in God, then I have to love all of God's creations. There can be no segregation."

Mercurious : Okay, if he can remember the names of the people that where there can he remember what was actually said? So far all you have presented are allegations and nothing else.
Do you believe in TV ? Do you believe in only true information on media ? Maybe you’d rather believe them instead of me? … What do I have to lose here ? … NOTHINGI’ve told you my son came right then telling me !!! Do you think “HE HAD A DREAM” … To make it clear … No because you are all talking about it …
Now again
He saw IT ! So why do they even deny the interview, instead of showing the entire interview to be clear on what she said !
- MTV new is working whith MUSIC,
- MTV need MUSIC … Every !!!
- Laureen Hill does REPRESENT A LOT OF MONNEY … and her FRIENDS TOO !!!
- They actually make A BIG PART of the MARKET.
She did a BIG MESS (but still) they HAVE TO PROTECT HER (THEY’RE MONNEY)

Okay, What did he see? Tell us what did lauryn say? That's very simple isn't it? I can't take you serious unless you can provide some proof.
Can you?
I have looked everywhere and these allegations are false! false! false!
Now are you ready for the truth? I can show you where and how the rumour got started.
This has happened to countless stars over the years; Shakira, Elvis, Hilfiger, just to name a few. It's sad that people will make up blatant lies like this; ruin reputations, end careers, etc. But whats sadder still is when people foolishly buy into it.
If your not part of the solution your part of the problem.
So tell us all what Lauryn said. Why haven't you been able to provide us with this info? Please illuminate us. We all anxiously await to hear from you on this matter.
Otherwise, I will speak to you no more on this matter until you can provide proof.

On numerous other occasions, she has denied saying anything remotely resembling the statement credited to her. In response to her critics, she offered: "What I did say was that I love my people, black people, and I will continue to make music for them."
Now that sounds made up. It sounds like a PR nightmare and someone came into clean it up. I bet MTV edited the tape. They knew their arse was in a sling.
I believe she said it. I have noticed some ethic groups do not seem to think insulting whites is a racial slur .

the reverse discrimitory remarks
No such thing. A discriminatory remark is just that, no matter who says it, black white or yellow. No reverse about it.
I have noticed some ethic groups do not seem to think insulting whites is a racial slur .
Hold up. I think I know what you mean. But whole ethnic groups? Do you mean ceartain individuals in various ethnic groups?
Yes, I've heard that crap before to" Minorities CANNOT be racist as they are oppressed etc., etc.,. So I just say, "Fine, your not a racist, your a bigot!" That usually shuts them up.

Believe what you want too. I consider you a racist anyway. You are quick to believe anything negative about blacks in general. But again I ask you where is your proof?
Btw how is Laura Miller doing?
Yes, I've heard that crap before to" Minorities CANNOT be racist as they are oppressed etc., etc.,. So I just say, "Fine, your not a racist, your a bigot!" That usually shuts them up.
It's not racist to say that racism exists. Herein lies the crux of the matter this is exactly what happened to Lauryn Hill. The same thing that avishai and Wednesday are doing now is the same way it always happens.
If you step on my foot and I say "ouch" that is simply a reaction to what you did. I've noticed that alot of people don't really even wont to hear that racism exists. Lets not confuse a response to racism vs a truly racist statement.
