it could have been the way in which the story was told that has people balls in a knot. I think she got caught up in the moment with her black friends and once in the circle you actlike and speak like them and she probably felt like she was a part of...... because she don't have any broken bones so...... she has black friends.... AND
In my opinion she can say that. I have never heard anything racist or negative about gwyneth so she gets a pass from me. Plus she's a cool white girl. I have white friends and if I were to sayto them "you my nigga" why couldn't they say it back to me without fear of repercussion????? IJS
WE as a people.... OUR DRAWERSIS ON TOO TIGHT. GETUPSET ABOUTEDUCATION AND WHAT THE DISTRICT IS DOING TO OUR CHILDRENS EDUCATION, CATHOLIC PRIESTS MESSING WITH YOUNG BOYS AND UNDERAGE GIRLS, OR WHAT DEALS OUR COUNCILPERSONS ARE MAKING BEHIND OUR BACKS BUT WE KEEP RE-ELECTING THEM THEN COMPLAIN WHEN SHIT DON'T GO OUR WAY. WE HAVE SO MUCH MORE TO WORRY ABOUT THAT IS SO MUCH BIGGER THEN THIS SHIT.... where is the love?????

I think that we as a people, need to get over ourselves......
If the peeps she was hanging around with don't have a problem with it, then the rest of us should not either.... Did anyone ask Kanye or Jay how they felt about being referred to as "niggas" cause the last time I checked in the black community, "Niggas" is a friendly expression used by the young people when they feel you are close to them. BTW the news team on channel ten, THOSE ARE MY NIGGAS (FAMILY) cause they keep me abreast of changing news, weather and other stuff. I love them like family and never met them a day in my life but I feel close to them because I watch them everyday.... they are my peeps......you know, my niggas.

Gwyneth should get a pass. She didn't do anything wrong. She was having a good time in Paris, and maybe a few drinks. Rappers shouldn't include words or terms in there music that they don't want others to repeat. What if she went to a Snoop Dog concert or a NWA concert? Leave her alone and stop making something out of nothing.

I say WHY NOT! Until we "brown skinned people" stop using the term so openly, how do we expect anyone else not to use it?
