Black Twitter has been going in on Michael since the interview went viral.
Not only are his remarks about black women disappointing, but he also told GQ that he prefers to go for movie roles written with white men in mind.
A lot of folks aren’t happy with the actor right now.
Perez Hilton writes:
We can’t blame him for wanting to play a variety of roles — right?
But for fans on Twitter, some commenters thought Mike forgot where he came from.
Remember: the actor gained a lot of traction in his career after his role playing Oscar Grant, a black man who was killed by transit police, in Fruitvale Station.
And an alleged Snapchat sent by Jordan with an “All Lives Matter” message didn’t help.
Outrage ensued on social media, with fans and foes sharing:
Black Twitter always comes through. He has no idea but his career is pretty much finished. White people don’t see it for him and black people are done with him. He better save his coins now.
I’m glad he got called out on Twitter. He really got cocky and abandoned all common sense.
I think he’s always been this way. He just hid it better. Now that he has some movies lined up, he’s not afraid to say what he really thinks.
Man he is a cornball….I don’t get how he said he doesn’t see color when he makes sure that all he dates is White women. Then date a variety of different color women IF U don’t see color….he is an ignorant young fool….who won’t benefit off my money ever again….and yeah nobody I knw was even feeling or excited to go see he new movie he’s in (I forget he name) it’s not important anyway. Since he feels like Blk people are not “good enuff” our money is t good enuff depend on White folks to support u…..and sit back and watch how far that goes #bye
You don’t abandon your black fans because you want white people to like you.
Good!
F-ck him.
Not sure if the tweets will get a rise out if him but I’m sure the continued decline in support will. It’s a lesson to me that movies are just movies. As powerful as Fruitvale Station is, he was acting. Dude sucks thoroughly in real life.
**of**
Black Twitter is still dragging him too.
He’s about to learn a very important life lesson.
