I am sending much love to Oscar nominated actress-Gabourey Sidibe because she has been under such an attack regarding her weight with everyone ”weighing” in on if she will have a career in Hollywood. From the looks of it-she is off to a great start. The naysayers should back off-leave their derogatory and disgusting remarks to themselves.
I am sure the reason Shockjock Howard Stern took it upon himself to say such disgusting remarks about her was to increase his own ratings. Just like Glenn Beck, Rush Limbaugh and others. They make these crazy statements for ratings!
In all of the interviews that I have seen of Gabourey (Gabby) Sidibe, I have been left with the impression of how incredibly funny and confident she is. Then seeing her on the red carpet made me incredibly proud of this young woman who is pursuing her dream whole-heartedly despite not fitting into the standard hollywood stereotype.
Being called morbidly obese is not a fun place to be-I have been there. When and if Ms Sidibe decides to lose weight-it should be on her own terms, in her own time-frame, however and whenever she choooses.
So Gabby-I am sending you much love. Be Healthy -Be Wise – Be You.

I do agree that she radiates confidence, and I do agree with the ultimate adage: “if you can’t say something nice, then don’t say anything at all,” however, your signature says so much:
Be Health-Be Wise-Be You
Gabby is blessed with acting talent that, is unrivaled, considering this is her debut. In order for her to use her God-given gift to its fullest, she must get healthy, wisely, so she can be her best self. Let us celebrate the best of her and gently, with ease, encourage her to get healthy. Being so large isn’t. I like her, and I want to see her reign Hollywood and knock those skinny chicks on their skinny tails for many, many years!

What’s really sad about this ‘thin-overweight thing’ is that it’s a condition that the industry/media has instilled in us for years. But what makes this beautiful is that Gabby is a proud young woman in the skin she’s in. Her level of confidence is glowing and it shows. For health benefits, I think she should consider if not already gradually losing a few pounds.
It’s evident her talent is remarkable! I have so much respect for her and with a team like Tyler Perry and Oprah Winfrey 100% behind her, she will be just fine. I’m proud of her accomplishment as ‘Academy Award Nominee Gabourey Sidibe’. and I believe she’s well on her way to topping that!
