Taye Diggs Admits “My Mother Always Knew I’d Marry A White Girl!”

[Mo Pizorn]

How long before this nigga cheats on Idina with Lea Michele?

 

[The Plutonian]

Yeah I got you

This is from Rolling Out magazine in December 2006 I believe

When asked why his show wasnt successful...

"What [black women] were happy about was that [Mendes character in Hitch] wasn't white; she was Latina, Diggs explains when asked why Will Smiths role in the film didn't draw as much cultural ire as some of the choices he's made on- and off-screen. That's what they were happy about, if we're gonna be real. Thats how the scale goes. First off, if it's a dark brother and the dark brother isn't with a dark sister that causes issues. After that, if you're going to date outside the race, then they go down the list of how poorly other minorities have been treated after blacks. [So] after that, you have Latino. Like, I've had people say that about my wife: At least she looks Spanish. Like that makes it a little bit better. So that's why people accepted it. If Will Smith had been with a lily-white woman, it would've been a completely different situation in the black community as far as females are concerned. I guarantee you that.

This was his response when the interviewer asked him questions about his wife...

"I'm too far along in my life and in my career to really give a question like that any type of dignified answer, says Diggs, who was raised in black, middle-class Rochester, N.Y., intones. When I was in high school, maybe. College, maybe. But Im a grown-ass man and if people have a difficult time dealing with that, then I welcome them to see a movie with Omar Epps or Denzel Washington or some of those other brothers that have chosen to spend the rest of their lives with sisters, as you say. I just don't have time for it. You can't make everybody happy. And for the fans that are out there that are into me; they don't really give a f- what's going on with my personal life."

Wow. Sounds like he just don't like black women. He need to remember it's most of those ghetto ass sisters that helped put his ass on the map not becky. Once you get rich and famous any white woman will want your ass. Sisters too but the self hate of race is too prevalent with black people. Why the shunning of sisters? Hell I love my culture and yes there are nice looking white women but I could only grudge fuck em (sorry victims) and use em for my PLEASHHHAAAA! Taye wtf man

This has always been a verrrrrrrry interesting point to me as well. And once again this is something i've only seen black men do. You grew up around girls of all types. You weren't discerning. Pussy was Pussy. So you grow up and THEN you say white girls are checkin for me. Fuck black women. Why is it that black women deserve their ire but not anyone else?

This is what i mean when i say the problem with these bgolians is their belief that they are entitled.

YES it IS something that only black guys do ... you wont hear any white nerds who got dissed in school by girls grow up and say "oh now I hate all ww cuz they never checked for me when I was younger" ... what they do is step their game up then step to the women they want

Its funny cuz if a bw is rejected by bm continuously they will list a million reasons why her being dissed was justified and they demand she step her game up before being worthy of a brotha ... however when its the other way around entitled indeed

Wow. Sounds like he just don't like black women. He need to remember it's most of those ghetto ass sisters that helped put his ass on the map not becky. Once you get rich and famous any white woman will want your ass. Sisters too but the self hate of race is too prevalent with black people. Why the shunning of sisters? Hell I love my culture and yes there are nice looking white women but I could only grudge fuck em (sorry victims) and use em for my PLEASHHHAAAA! Taye wtf man

Exactly @ the bolded ... thats the irony of it all ... he fights about how blind love is but when it comes to the money he is all about black power trying to guilt trip bw into supporting him cuz he knows crackkkas arent checkin for his ass like he checks for theirs

Dude is the epitome of a coon

When I was younger I was lucky enough to date ALL types and Colors...

many dont have the desire or opportunity to do the same...

but that experience made me realize a real treasure and I am blessed that she was willing to have me...

she is a stunningly beautiful Nubian princess...

but I can understand someone being attracted to a white girl for many reasons (many stereotypical) but the differences in lifestyles and upbringing can be attractive.

who cares?

If YOU happy then I am happy for you...

but I DO feel a little "disappointed" if I see a fine educated successful black woman with a white man, but then I think if a brother didn't step his game up then good for HER.

I am also uncomfortable when I see all these white babies with black nannies, cleaning up and doing things they CANT even do for their OWN children

but again what exactly can we or should we do?

We need to improve us first before we start setting guidelines for others to do or not so.

Thats very interesting that you still ended up with a sista ... most guys I know like you described dont

Why does it make you uncomfortable to see a bw with a wm if you yourself have dated all races and also feel like the bolded???

That doesn't mean I dont have that "slave memory" in my genes like Levar Burton says...

I understand the history of my people in this country and the what black women in particular have had to endure so I do get a "mammy" flash back now and then but I'm good with it.

Remember Chris Rock said his uncle had a white wife but if the revolution came she MAY not be spared

I was lucky enough to take a couple of women studies courses taught by both white and black female professors and many times I was the ONLY Black and only male in the room.

Learned MANY THINGS...

included the true origin of the term "motherf*cker".

 

[largebillsonlyplease]

Does all of BGOL think with one brain????? How many members have to respond before you generate one origianl thought.
I know nothing of this mans bank account I just find him to be insanely sexy and has been every since "How Stella Got Her Groove Back". You can have a million dollars and spend a million and $1 and be broke

Please stop kidding yourself with the notion that any particular RACE of women are plotting to get someone for their bankroll.... it is a TYPE of woman that does that and more importantly it's the type most men break their necks to marry in the first place

my comment had absolutely nothing to do with his money
it had everything to do with his personality as a man.

 

[largebillsonlyplease]

In black womens minds that's one and the same

no its not
its moreso in white women's minds than in anyone's
they have made their existence off of marrying rich and having kids with rich.

a shallow woman is a shallow woman but id put money on her being white before i put it on her being black 8 out of 10 times.

yall need to wake up lol

Cosign.... I feel like everyone commenting on relationships and black women/men on BGOL are a bunch of jaded losers who feel comfortable with generalizations.

It's why I don't normally fuck with these bullshit threads in the first place.

 

[RepostKing]

probably hasnt had one argument since they been married...

His life.He is happy so be it.Personally im pro black and prefer to see successful bruthas be with sistas,but some dudes just aint cut out for that.My brother is good looking and has a great career,but super square.He primarily dates older white women.It used to bother the hell out of me and I didn't like being in public with them,but I got over it.My mom keeps asking me to "introduce him to some of your girlfriend's friends(sistas)",but he really isn't cut out for sistas.Most attractive sistas would find him too corny honestly.His white girls basically spoil him and find him funny.Taye Diggs was probably the same.Sistas will look at his looks and feel they are missing out,but he might have the personality of Carlton Banks and they would be tired of him after one date.

That's the reason why soo many sisters are losing. They want a man that is the total package. Sometimes brothers are not put together all the way at that time in their life. Besides looking for a dude that have specific looks, or hang around the crazy circles, or what he possesses, they need to see if he has potential, morals, and work ethic. It seems like them white women see potential before they see looks. So they spoil them from the get-go knowing there will be a big payoff someday.

Idina Menzel is opening up about her and Taye Diggs' 2013 split, and how the response over the "interracial aspect" of their relationship impacted their marriage.

people.com

@REDLINE

I get and I'm not saying they are lying

But honestly most if not many knew Taye background and wasn't surprised

I'm thinking he had a lot of ON SCREEN white relationships along with in real life that may have irked his black female fan base?
