Thandie Newton Reveals True Spelling Of Her Name: “I’m Taking Back What’s Mine”

It is the only thing I want to see.

i'm sayin YOU missed the point by a mile.

There is a difference between African Americans and native or immigrant Africans and it has nothing to do with whose "blacker" you don't seem to or refuse to understand that.

When you're young and in the business you have no power. They changed her name to make it easier for you to assimilate or for white people to be able to say your name. You go along to get along.

Most get to a point where they don't really care as long as the checks keep coming. This is obviously something that always bothered her but she kept quiet about it

Then SHE stole her name. That was over 30 years ago...

That just means she's not telling the entire story. I'll bet it started off as a typo and her white handlers got in her ear and said "if you want to make it in Hollywood you're going to have to make yourself ethnically neutral and exoticize yourself because you're mixed. Having an African sounding name won't work". The bitch said "yes sir!" and 25 years later after her youth is spent and her starlet value has faded she wants to embrace her dark side. Its a common story. She's just one in the number. Its the same mindset white porn hos have that won't fuck black men on film while they're young and hot but fucks em' all when they've reached MILF status.

Oh I know exactly what happened. My point is don't cry 30 years later to us

I think it was predicated on Anne Hathaway complaining about her name



10 sec in... talk about entitled first world problems

Well politics aside she looks great for being 50 nearly and going nude.

Bitch, too late.

Regardless of how she wants her name spelled most people will continue to refer too her as Thandie. Thandiwe obviously refers to her heritage. She may have waited far too long to get people recognize her now preferred spelling.

It is interesting that after decades in the public eye she now expresses this desire. Doesn't take anything away from her sexiness.

Just in case you missed how fine she can be
