I'm sorry but Channing looked terrible! Beyoncé looked good though, there was definitely some serious bouncing going on...I always liked JGL lol his performance was great too!
If a BLACK man did what these two handsome white men did... don't you guys think they'd get so much flack for it? The black masculinity construct is pretty fragile. It is destroying black men. Don't mean to get all queer studies on you Ocky lol
Oh I been ready because some folks were already saying this on social media. Yes and No...first check this out... Black internet was quite. I didn't even know Deion had appeared on the show. However; lets be real...Many in the Black community stay on "Gay Witch Hunt mode." I think we all know this and Cypher Ave has written about this. Tatum is white. For the most part white men and especially white celebs don't face the "is he DL / is he suspect" talk. These are terms and thoughts from the black community and they don't question white men (because they mostly don't care) in this same fashion. If this was Will Smith or Odell Beckham, black internet would explode and shut down to defcon 5 for at least 4-6 weeks.
I've never ever seen this show. LOL The "Rhythm Nation" skit was NIIIIIICE LOL. For Deion, you can even see in his performance he wasn't tryin to get "into" the character, just so that his performance would "lessen the blow" of the inevitable backlash from the Black "Community". Any white dude woulda been all into the Madonna character, writhin' on the floor, feigned masturbation and all. LOL But, whatever dude. We all do what we gotta do to get by in this world. If a muhf@#ka refuse to truly just say f#$k it and have fun with somethin' as mundane as a Lip Synch contest just because of what other people are gonna say, more power to him. Keep the "stick" up ya ass, then. I'll just keep laughin my ass off at the Channings and the James Francos lose themselves in their Tom Foolery. LOL
What @alton said pretty much sums it up. Deion Sanders didn't do what Channing Tatum did. He knows the backlash he would have gotten if he got more into character lol
