Cuba Gets Racial

Cuba Gooding Jr. is no Rosa Parks.

As the Oscar winner waited to get into Hyde last night, Gooding joked for TMZ cameras, saying "It's alright, you know black people like to stand in the back, we're used to the back."

If only he were that funny in "Boat Trip."

He's a no talent ass. How the hell would he know what black people like? He hasn't been black since "Boyz in da Hood".

He made joke, there is nothing wrong with that. Also he is somebody, he is an actor, husband,father and son. He has some not so good movies, but he does have great movies.

This was a very racial remark made by Mr. Gooding.He owes an apology to everyone.I can't believe these racial overtones are still being used today. You don't have the right to use these racial slurs.

Hmmm...Let me see. Black actor born of a black singer and white mother, married to ugly white woman is a racist? LOL! You people kill me. Next think you people will say is that Sammy Davis Jr hated entertainment. C'mon people..... the boy's mama is white...the mother of his children are white. You call him a racist?
