Early last week the The 2017 Golden Globe nominations were announced and although it wasn't completely white-washed as the Oscars, the cast of the Starz scripted drama POWER was left out in the cold for December.
This snub however didn't sit too well with the executive producer, Curtis "50 Cent" Jackson. He took to his social media to vent as usual.
50 Cent captioned this on his IG post:
“Golden Globe’s can suck a d**k. I accept my series POWER was not intended to be a signature show for the network, but it is the highest rated show,” 50 Cent captioned on his Instagram post. “I know my audience very well. I’m done promoting this outside of contractual obligations. SEASON 4 KANAN MUST DIE, I got other sh*t to do.”
But more importantly for the first time in award history, three black women (Viola Davis, Naomie Harris and Octavia Spencer) are all nominated for Best Supporting Actress. The success of Moonlight earned nominations in six different film categories including Best Director. As for TV, Issa Rae's years worth of hard work earned her a best actress nomination for a comedy series with Insecure. Not to mention, Donald Glover's Atlanta is up for best comedy and best actor.
