Actress Holly Robinson Peete is best known for her dramatic efforts on 21 Jump Street and Hangin’ With Mr. Cooper, so she should know a thing or two about being a black actress in Hollywood. Right?
The actress, who hilariously chose Lil Wayne as this year’s Halloween costume, appeared with her three kids for the premiere of “Happy Feet” at Grauman’s Chinese Theatre on November 13, 2011 in Hollywood, California.
Holly is all smiles in the photos, but in a recent interview, Holly gives her 2cents about Tyler Perry’s decision to cast Kim Kardashian in his latest film, The Marriage Counselor.
Details…
“We can always count on Tyler Perry to give a ‘blacktress’ a job,” Holly says about the director, who is famous for his movies highlighting strong African American female roles.
Kim Kardashian, who has a minor role in Tyler Perry‘s The Marriage Counselor as the main character’s co-worker, shot a few scenes in Atlanta last week, but recently returned home to L.A.
Kim’s casting in the movie has sparked a ton of debate amongst some TP fans, who have threatened to boycott the film, and irks the female contingent of the African American acting community.
Holly says, “All across the world ‘blacktresses’ are upset.”
Despite some ruffled feathers, Holly agrees that Kim’s casting is a strategic move for Tyler.
It’s [an] amazing PR move. It’s actually pretty smart and the timing is great.
Like her brand, this drama will be good for the film. So, it’s actually kind of brilliant in a way… I don’t have any problems with it.

Interesting… Wow. Who knew Kim Kardashian’s mini role in the film would spark so much tension?
On a related note, have you heard about the online petition created to boot The Kardashians off the air?
“In a grass roots effort, we have collected [thousands of] signatures for a petition asking E! Entertainment to remove the Kardashian suite of shows from their programming,” petition organizer Cyndy Snider said in a statement.
“We feel that these shows are mostly staged and place an emphasis on vanity, greed, promiscuity, vulgarity and over-the-top conspicuous consumption.” (source)
Ummmm…. CLEARLY this Snider lady missed Love & Hip-Hop, Basketball Wives & The Real Housewives of Atlanta this week! Where the hell are THOSE petitions?
Why won’t y’all let Kim Kardashian be GREAT?

Tyler Perry’s Movie Premiere
They don’t need a petition to get rid of the Kardashian’s. If people say they don’t like them, their shows or their brands, then they need to stop watching their shows and buying their products. LOL. If they weren’t getting the ratings or their products weren’t selling then companies wouldn’t finance their brand. That’s why I don’t watch their shows or buy any of their products cause I’m just SICK OF SEEING THEM! LOL.
We all need to send a clear message to Kim K. Boycott everthing associated with her. She will soon get the message. I do believe strongly that she needs a wake-up call.
…kim k haterism? duh….
Kim Kardashian = #NOTHINGTOCONTRIBUTETOINTELLIGENTLIFE
Me personally…. I like Kim K and her fam. I don’t look to them for guidance and my kids sure as hell don’t. If people were more aggressive about the knowledge of Jesus Christ we’d all be in a better place right now. This is HER life, let her live it the way she pleases. DANG
ok stop all of the nonsense…if thats the case …boycott all of the other silly reality shows/ stars…you all need to relax seriously…if you dont lik eher then dont buy her products and dont watch the shows and movies that she stars in …simple as that…
question…how many of you all watch love an dhip hop? or housewives of atlanta???…lol..ok then
hmmm maybe holly is a lil upset because she was recently booted off of that low budget talk show…i dunno
This is the problem with society now everybody focus to much on other people’s lives and never worry about there own I don’t care how anyone live there life because its there’s and dey can live it how dey want!!!Half of these people are suppose to be Christians and dats the sad part I thought dey are suppose to live by the Bible and the Bible says (HE WHO JUDGE SHALL BE JUDGED) let dis girl move on with her life and stop the bullying!!!!
Holly just mad because all her yeArs on TV she never turned it N2 a Hustle like Kim&Her Family Did,,&Tyler not’t hiring Her, 4. 1Thang she can’t act,,Qut B N a HATER,,when God Blessed them,,That’s there Blessing&can’t No1 Take it Away,,,She ain’t did nothing,,Holly Look@Your Twitter Followers&Look@KimK&Her Family,,They Good People,,U only lasted 1season on the Talk,,None of your TV Shiws Last Long,,I throught u was A Child of God,,I Guess Not,,,Get Y’all $$$$$$On KARDASHIANS,,,HALLELUJAH,,THANK U JESUS (*;*)
I just don’t understand the logic behind a boycott of the movie or her shows. Who cares if she isn’t black…we always scream we are tired of race being an issue but we are now saying Kim shouldn’t be in Tyler’s movie because she is white? Seriously? I’m black…I’m proud to be black, I watch her shows and I will continue to. I also support Tyler Perry and will watch the movie. Stop judging this girl!!! Like you all don’t have a past or haven’t EVER done anything immoral in life. She deserves a shot like everyone else. If you don’t like her shows turn the channel! If you don’t support the movie…DON’T BUY A MOVIE TICKET! Stop making this such a relevant issue! My God! This is so ridiculous!
i think its a great idea she’s in his movie……it’ll simply create a more diverse group of viewers for Tyler Perry. I think he offered her a role in his movie simply because he can relate to being continously put down and called talentless by many as she is. Great move Tyler Perry
I Loove Me Some Kardashians,,Hell I do Kims Exercises,,4my Bootie&They Werk 2,,,,
Why are some of you writing that Holly is mad and is hating? Comprehension is key people, she stated in the article that she as no problem with Kim K being in the movie. Learn to read with comprehension it’ll take you far in life.
ATLien what do you mean "let kim be great". Great at what? Kim having a small part in the TP movie is a wrap. I have decided to boycott the movie myself. Even though these reality shows can be somewhat entertaining for adults, I truly think that these shows are a perfect example of how not to live your life. Money is the mitigating factor for all of your reality shows. And we all know that Man can not serve God and mammon. You have to make a choice,even if you don’t believe it.
@Quell before you tell someone to learn comprehension boo learn how to spell because its (Has) not (As) lol oh yeah and it will take you far;-)

Guess we will c when the movie comes out. A few yrs back I went to a tp book signing & after “meeting” him in person I refuse to support him in n/e way. Same with KK, I liked her until I started watching her show. I couldn’t understand why so many people disliked her….now I know. She def doesn’t have middle child syndrome, she’s a spoiled brat, her moms favorite child, and just annoying and needy. Parents aren’t supposed to have faves between their children.
I am white, in my 50’s and love TP movies. They are inspirational and the lesson learned in the end is spot on. I guess the new life lesson will be that money grubbing gold diggers always come up first.
Fire KK
I’m tired of hearing about her, petition or not she is in EVERYTHING and working my last nerve. Will I still watch the movie, hell yes…..I like TP’s movies and one bitch ain’t gonna stop me from watching it.
GRRRREAT POST!!! LOL @ “Blacktresses”!!!
[…] “Blacktresses” Upset Over Tyler Perry Casting Kim Kardashian + Petition Created to Boot … […]
holly act your age…please you have 5 kids to look after focus on that and not kim in a friggin movie…
my thing is if he wanted to cast a woman in the role and it was about "redemption" why not cast JAMIE FOXWORTHY" remember her the Family Matters show younger daughter that fell into porn after the she was booted from that show as a kid? she is now married and a mother and i havent seen anyone beating down her door for a second chance….put some money in this young woman’s pocket instead of a rich spoiled fame whore.atleast MRS.FOXWORTHY truly is a story of a saint who is a sinner who fell down..WHY NOT HELP HER GET BACK UP AGAIN???I SAY MR. PERRY CHECK YO SELF. MONEY MAY BE EVERYTHING TO YOU BUT I TELL U THIS, NO MONEY IS WORTH UR SOUL AND ONCE U LOOSE YOUR CORE AUDIENCE THEY WILL NEVER BE BACK AND U MAY HAVE TRICKED US INTO SUPPORTING U BEFORE BUT U ONLY NEED TO SHOW URSELF ONE TIME BEFORE INTELLEGENT PEOPLE LEARN AND MOVE ON AND NOT BE TAKEN FOR A HOLLYWOOD RIDE OUTTA OUR MONEY AND COMMON SENCE
I’m gonna say it. Black people are haters. Instead of seeing something someone else has and trying to get it themselves, it turns into what kind of person they are. WHO THE HELL CARES. If your black ass would stop being so lazy, you’d have it. Now I see this crap about black actresses being mad at tyler perry. I don’t like tyler perry, but just cause he casted Kim Kardashian doesn’t mean a goddamn thing. Why would you wanna be a part of his coonery anyway??? SMH. Black people gotta do better.
Now…the post above me is real talk! lol. Folks need to step it up and next time it could be you. In the meantime…stop hating on Kim K. She is marketing herself to make that paper. Just because TP is a black man doesn’t mean a black actress is entitled to the role. C’mon folks. Seriously!
cuz kim is a hoe…straight up and a golddigger at that…all she did was sell a sex tape to get in the business she is talentless and she only married Humphries to get paid and publicity she didn’t care for him at all..all those tears were so fake and I will never support her or this TP movie if he keeps her in the movie
