Isaiah Washington wins NAACP Image Awards
March 5, 2007 by Staff
“Grey’s Anatomy” star Isaiah Washington claimed a best actor prize at the 38th annual NAACP Image Awards.
And the whole celebrity gossip world goes crazy,stating that he didn’t deserve it.
When you look at this deeper,Washington truly deserved his award.
Why? Because,he is one of the rare black actors in a popular TV show on primetime.
He is madly talented.
He plays a black doctor,that’s a very good inspiration for young children growing up,it tells them they can be a doctor too if they really want to.
What’s crazy in all of this,the man apologized many times before ,for using the word “faggot”,he even went into rehab for 30 days.
What else can he do ,for people to get over this besides becoming gay himself .
Michael Richards said sorry for a whole week for using the word “Nigger” and people moved on.
Paris Hilton uses both nigger and faggot ,and no one made a big deal out of it.
Can someone please say double standard.
