Snoop Dogg took to Instagram to call out the Emmys for failing to honor any people of color in the acting categories at the 2021 ceremony over the weekend.
White actors took home awards for all lead and supporting actor and actress categories across the board, with the likes of Morgan Freeman, Kevin Hart, Tracee Ellis Ross, Daniel Kaluuya, and the late Michael K. Williams being snubbed. Snoop reacted to the news by posting a photo of the 38 Black actors nominated, along with the caption, “Then U wonder why I say f**kall these bullsh*t ass award shows they not for us Emmy these nuts in ya mouth.”
This comes after 50 Cent addressed the controversy in a since-deleted Instagram post that read, “Listen the Emmy’s still has a separate bathroom for colored folks. I’m gonna put the NAACP awards on the air at the same time and f*** up there numbers 🤔. No they really should be afraid of me I’m different.”
