NIA LONG BEYONCE DISS INTERVIEW BEYONCE NEEDS ACTING CLASSES0 comments

Actress Nia Long gave an interview about the state of the entertainment industry. Nia was asked about Beyonce’s skill as an actress which forced her to give a diss response that Bey needs to keep singing and get some acting classes. Ouch!! Beyonce has stated that her goal is to be a singing, Oscar Winning triple threat in Hollywood.

Nia Long is featured on the cover of the U.K. magazine, Pride. She talks about singers crossing over into acting and not really having the skills to do so.

She is asked about Beyonce so of course now everyone is going to say she’s dissing Beyonce when I think she’s speaking about the situation as a whole. Here’s some quotes from the interview.

“If you’re a singer not an actress, you should sing. If you’re a rapper, you should rap.”

Asked what she thought about Beyonce’ performance in Obsessed:

“I didn’t see ‘Obsessed,’ so I can’t comment, but it’s just not about how talented you are anymore. It’s about, ‘How much box-office revenue will this person generate?’ When you see certain people – we won’t name names – they just don’t have the skill, and no one in their team has said, ‘You need acting classes.’”

She says there are some exceptions in Hollywood:

“If you take time to develop your craft, God bless you. Jamie Foxx is an example of both [actor and singer].”

On the quality of roles Hollywood offers Black actresses:

“If you were able to take all the Black actresses and the choices we’ve made collectively, it’s a pure reflection of what you see on film. People need to work. But the content? The opportunities for Black actresses are more widespread today, but the quality has suffered,” she offered. [source]
