Tyrese Clarifies “Fat & Nasty” Comments Regarding Overweight People

Tyrese_Fat_Nasty_Comments_Backlash

Tyrese would like to clear up some recent comments he made about “fat” and “nasty” people. Yesterday we reported on some of the not so nice comments Ty made regarding overweight people and living a healthier lifestyle.

Among other things, here’s a bit of what he said. “If you are fat and nasty and you don’t like the way you look, do something about it. It’s simple. When you take a shower and you put your fat, nasty body in the shower and by the time you get out, the mirrors are all steamed up so you don’t look at what you did to yourself.”

Ouch!

Tyrese is now clarifying what he meant by those statements but he’s not exactly apologizing. During a Twitter rant he wrote,

“I’m not apologizing for what I said I’m apologizing for the bad choice of wording and execution of my point around obesity …Y’all seen my documentary I was brought in this world from a plus size mother and my sisters are plus size as well.. I am concerned always!”, he continued.

During a recent interview Tyrese offended overweight people with comments they’ve found to be very disrespectful. Although he was asked his thought on promoting a healthier lifestyle, Tyrese’s choice of words has gotten him in some serious hot water.

He stated, “If you are fat and nasty and you don’t like the way you look, do something about it. It’s simple. When you take a shower and you put your fat, nasty body in the shower and by the time you get out, the mirrors are all steamed up so you don’t look at what you did to yourself.”

Hmmmm…what?!

Tyrese Secures Role In Teddy Pendergrass Biopic

It’s been 2 years since the passing of R&B icon Teddy Pendergrass and perhaps the same length of time we’ve heard rumors crooner Tyrese Gibson would take on the role in his biopic. Pendergrass, himself, even expressed interest to have the singer play him before his death on January 13, 2010.

Now, we’ve gotten some confirmation.

The singer tweeted this morning, “NEWS:.. I have officially secured the life rights to the Life Story of Teddy Pendergrass. My inspiration… This movie will be made…”

This was long in the making actually. The two singers had formed a close friendship before Pendergrass succumbed to his colon cancer diagnosis and respiratory complications. As for when the project will be released? No further details have been released.

Do you think Gibson can successfully take on this role? Why or why not?
