Tommy Hilfiger..don't these ppl just annoy you!!

dunno if any of u saw the recent taping of the Oprah Winfrey show where her guest was Tommy Hilfiger. On the show, she asked him if the statements about race he was accused of saying were true.



Statements like... "If I'd known African-Americans, Hispanics, Jewish and Asians would buy my clothes, I WOULD NOT have made them so nice. I wish these people would *NOT* buy my clothes, as they are made for upper class white people."


His answer to Oprah was a simple "YES". Where after she immediately asked him to leave her show.

Show this racist muthafcker that we dont need his clothes and they aint even worthy of wipin our butts on, hope the fcker gets bankrupt.
So spread the word DONT BUY TOMMY HILFIGER cr*p

I have a cold, I am tired and the last thing I want to see is an unjustified attack and abuse of the English language. So please... make an effort. Thanks. :smile:

And as for the rumours, if they're true it's pretty sick. But from what I can tell they are just rumours. And I don't want to feel bad about my Hilfiger boxers... :frown:

Oh yeah, if it's true, then she did the right thing (and this guy actually makes some sense).
I was just making the point (which is highlighted in the link) that these are just rumours being circulated by email.

I think it's meant to be alright and something.

Sadly, I hear too much of it where I live to understand it.

Look, of course what he said was ridiculous and he deserved to be thrown out but she can't invite someone to her show, ask them a question about their opinion and then send him out because he answered truthfully, especially when his answer was a simple 'yes' and not an elaborate offense that would persuade people into thinking the same way he does

(and before people start saying that I'm a racist I'll just mention that I am jewish and have nothing against any other race)

How do you decide which words are going to be abused?

For example, you have left "realise" intact. But what you have done to "seriously" is just plain mean.

lets pretend he really said that
oprah is black and she wont possibly handel someone who said that about her and all people who only have different skin colour,secondly it's her show,as it is his trade mark,he said he doesn't want her to wear her clothes and simply she doesn't want him to be in her show
