She never claimed that...she was on the cover of Ebony magazine a few years black and did an interview talking about being a black woman in DR. She says she's black all the time...with that said there's no way she should've gotten this role. That ? is just terrible casting
the fukk is being black in the DR?
She's talking about, the culture of embracing your blackness in the D.R... -

People keep saying this but what has she done besides Michonne? There is a big difference between having limited screen time on a show where you are the 4th main character (Rick, Daryl, Glen >>>>) and being the main character in a movie with most of the screen time. Outside of looks what makes her suitable for the role? Y'all logic is as shallow as those you criticise.
she's been acting since 2004. michonne is her breakout role but she's experienced. her never being in a lead role is a wack excuse for her not to be considered. it literally can be said about every main actor and actress before they were given a chance to carry a movie
Zoe herself is a serviceable actress, but her performances has never blown me away. so questioning whether or not she can play an icon such as Nina Simone is fair
we will see
Did she audition and was turned down? People saying she should be casted just because of her looks is wack when she didn't even audition. I am just pointing out the lack of logic with people just randomly dropping her name as if she would ? this role based on looks alone. As I said before IDGAF but naming Michonne has no weight behind it.
? how should I know?
but not every actor/actress has to audition to get a role. sometimes the studio approaches them with the opportunity and they go on from there -

Curry>>>>>>>>Bron, Harden and Durrant combined. You mad?
What kind of ? ? is this.
If you found something ? in a joke/sarcasm about a basketball player being better than 3 other players than you got deeper issues.
You said he's better because he's light skin
That's ? as ?
I guess you missed what @gns said about lightskin? My comment was in response since Curry is the best player in the NBA and he IS lightskin. Not better because he lightskin. SMH how did that go over your head? -

Yo.............
She looks horrible. You can see in her face how much makeup and work they had to do just to get her to look like Nina and she still doesn't look like her. Her face still looks boney. This reminds me of that Michael Jordan movie The American Dream. It came out on ABC Family in like the late 90's staring a dude named Michael Jace. This gone be worse than Flex playing MJ. -
So the IC went from saying mixed people aren't black to saying a person with a Dominican father and Puerto Rican mother is?

They can be but don't most Dominican not identify as black and also I don't consider them black cuz they can play both sides of the fence, thats why she can say people of color dont exist then turn around and say she is a black woman when it benefits her -

I would've liked to see Lupita get that but meh... Whatever. If Zoe knock it out the park I ain't trippin
I ain't think Jamie had it in him to do Ray and he ? crushed it -

I think Tichina Arnold would've been a good choice to play Nina; she can sing and act.
