: MediaTakeOut.com just received some DISTURBING news. According to reports, British star Taio Cruzis saying that he may NEVER feature Black women in his videos - EVER. Taio Cruz had a hit song in the UK called Come On Girl. But in recent days, he's come under criticism for not having Black girls in any of his videos. Well dude is UNAPOLOGETIC about it. Here's his official quote:
I like to put girls in my video that I think are hot. If a really hot black girl came to a casting, she’d be in my video.He added:
I think that people even focusing on the race issue in my videos is a problem. And I would almost react by never putting black girls in my video, because I’m that type of person – rebellious. I’d be like, ‘If that’s how you’re gonna be, I’m never gonna put black girls in my videos.’Soooo . . . let's get this straight. In ALL THE Castings, there hasn't been EVEN ONE Black girl who showed up that was "really hot"??? We would BOYCOTT his azz if we even knew who he was . . .
He's a COON. There are plenty of hot Black women around, he is just a coon, that's all. But NO BLACK WOMEN should support him. In fact, no black man should support this man. Coons like him are what causes a drift BTW Black men and Black women. This fool came from a Black woman!
Get him where it HURTS, give him no support! No support means no money.
AINT nothin new!!!! I DON'T get offended @ all be it!!!
we have the black dudes of America to thank for their views of black women, black folks form the UK and other places just wanna be like the black dudes in the US and they see how the black dudes ova here are NOT attracted to black females so of course a black dude in the UK aint gonna be attracted to us, so BLAME THE IGNORANT BLACK GUYS IN THE US, I can't blame him REALLY!!!! but since I don't listen to him I REALLY can care less
AGAIN we owe thanks to the IGNORANT HIP-HOP artists we have here!!!!!
The problem is with the American egots who see racism in everything they view. For example, the KFC videos of Australia, where a lone white guy pacifies a bunch of egots with a bucket of chicken at a soccer match, was not racist if viewed in the proper context.
Egots, however, saw it as racist. This is the same case.
CONTEXT you egots. Learn it. When this egot casted there happened to be no beautiful egot, which is really rare to begin with.
AINT nothin new!!!! I DON'T get offended @ all by it!!!

These types of characters are exactly why I cooled on contemporary Hip Hop/Rap; self hatred is too present in the industry.
The music is either too commercial, all about marketing or illustrating how Black men don't like their own blacks skin.
When a rapper does not have black and /or darker skinned women in his videos, he really just looks like a chump to me. It's so dated, so ignorant and downright disgusting.
Real black men who love their culture need to stand up. Hip hop is officially DEAD.
You egots fail. The problem is that the real beautiful egots, like Beyonce, Alicia Keys, Halle Berry (halfsies too), are rare.
So yah, it's slim pickings for hot egot chicks for these athletes & music videos. So they move on to the whites, latinas & other races, who have a higher percentage of people who are easy on the eyes.
Maybe he had some bad experiences with black women being on his previous sets or video shoots. Maybe that had attitude, caused him to loose money in the studio or video shoots by them argueing or being nasty to the film crew. Maybe they were fighting amongst each other and film crews charge by the hour. May they were late to the video shoot last time or not about business and keeping up bullshyt. Maybe they were acting like Diva's last time. THERE IS A REASON!
so when BW are in videos everyone complains about how theyre degrading themselves and acting like floosies, being fake and being no brain just as* but now evry1 is upset because he not putting bw in his videos? so do we want bw exploited or not? I feel he wrong but at the same time isn't that ok that he just making the white broads look dumb and like a piece of meat...I dunno just my opinion, seems kinda wierd that folks are mad that he is NOT making bw look like ho*s, cuz we all know thats wut video chicks are. He coulda worded it different, he shi*ty for saying it but aint that a good thing?
PPL PPL PPL MTO is making yall into a bunch of fools...honestly in your daily lives how many of us really focus on race all day long. And if u do then get a life. There's nothing wrong with discussing it but to obsess over it as much MTO does is a problem. I'm certain black men and women will continue to date/marry/love one another...get a life MTO
His music is good, but ive noticed that hes not puttin black girls in his video. i just dont think he wants that " vibe". Black girls can be stong minded, or just plain ignorant bitches which ever way you look at it. they are very demanding, and unless you tick all of there boxes they wont respect you for being you. ( especially if your not a thug type draped in diamonds or have lightskin or money ). And so he understands this ,and has chosen to do away with such garbage, and live life like a NORMAL PERSON without them.
its 2010 people, WHY THE FUK ARE WE STILL LOOKIN AT SKIN COLOR LIGHT OR DARK? THE WHITE FOLKS HATED US...AND SOME STILL DO FOR BEING DARKER THAN THEM, OK AFTER YEARS OF FIGHTING AND CIVIL RIGHTS MOVEMENT AND ALL THAT WE FINALLY GOT SOME KIND OF RESPECT THEN YEAR AND YEARS LATER WE START HATIN ON OUR ON KIND DIVIDING LIGHT SKIN BLACKS AND DARK SKIN BLACKS AND NOW ITS GOTTEN TO THE POINT WHERE SOME BLACK MEN DONT EVEN WANNA TOUCH OR LOOK AT A BLACK WOMEN! FOR REAL YALL, THIS IS WHAT ITS COME TOO, IM ALL FOR INTERRACIAL DATING BUT SOME PEOPLE TAKE RACE AND SKIN COLOR TOO FAR!
lol well boycott his ass anyway even if you don't know who he is. Sick of these freakin artists. Our money is good enough to buy his crap, but we aren't good enough to work with his ass. I am sure it is mainly black folks who buy his music. Dude will Chris Browned up in here-meaning we can strip your career to nothing idiot.
I'm from london and this dude used to be on the same performing arts course as me. He is the biggest coconut and has always acted like a sell out. Not shocked by these comments at all dude acts like a [EXPLETIVE] anyway! he's the type of dude that goes out with white chicks but its cool cos he's not the nicca black girls want anyway!
if he did y'all black chick would STILL COMPLAIN SOMEHOW ,SOMEWAY. maybe he knows AINT no pleasing y'all so why even bother and waste time and money on black chicks.
y'all would say things like "why all the black chicks light skin with long hair" or why they gotta show her butt like that".
y'all complain when y'all in videos, and y'all complain when y'all aint in videos. why bother...im with him...NO BULL$HIT ON THE SET!!!
just keep showing y'all outta shape azzez on youtube and with y'all avatar pics
whatever... if he doesnt want black women to be in his videos, then he doesnt deserve to have us in his videos. after that statement... good luck trying to crossover into the US @itstoomuch: its really not about wantinmg acceptance or not looking in the mirror finding yourself to be a beautiful woman because i definately see myself as a beautiful, intellgent woman inside and out. its about what comes off to me and others as self hatred that is so prominant in the black community especially when it comes to black men. its very sad
@stesha_doll
how does a MAN that doesnt want a certain type of FEMALE hate HIMSELF???? so you telling me that he HATES HIMSELF because there is no black chicks in his VIDEO??? how does that equate to him NOT LIKING HIMSELF???? that doesnt make LOGICAL SENSE...
most of y'all black chicks are phucked up mentally to even think that way. WE DONT WANT TO BE ATTRACTED TO SOMEONE THAT LOOKS LIKE OUR MAMA...WE DONT SAY "SHE FINE AS HELL, SHE LOOK LIKE MY MOM.. DAMN I WANNA GET WITH HER CAUSE SHE REMINDS ME OF MY MOMMA"-----DO YOU LOOK FOR A MAN THAT LOOKS LIKE YOUR DADDY?????? DO YOU????
BIGGEST COONS GETS ON TV ALWAYA.. THEY FOLLOW WHAT MASSA SYS.
HE FOLLOWS AMERICAN IDEOLOGY AS WELL!!!!
LIFE GROOVE YOU SOUND SO STPID. THEY CALL EACH OTHR" TRAILER PARK, DUMB BLONDES, ETC" YOU SOUND LIKE THE IG- NIG THEY TAKING ABOUT.
INFERIOR BLACKS ALWAYS PUTTING OTHER RACES ON A PEDALSTAL..
STOP BOWING MOFOS.
THEY BLEED AND DIE JUST LIKE YOU.
BLACKS ARE STILL BEING USED. ANYONE WHO WANT PUBLICITY USES THE RACE CARDS USING BLACKS.. NOT EVEN ABOUT THEIR OWN RACE.. USUALLY ABOUT BLACKS!!!
Wakakaka!! Why do I get the feeling this guy has a small penis? I bet the last black girl he was with wasn't satisfied by his micro dick and since then he's been playing in the white fields lol I thought it was just me that noticed he only puts the thin, olive-skinned European chicks in his (lame) videos. But by him saying he's being 'rebelious' is actually a (lame) excuse to never put black, beautiful girls in his (lame) videos. As if a sistah would ever wanna be in this 3rd grade celebs videos anyway. MTO, stop giving Mr Small Penis the time of day. He think his [EXPLETIVE] don't stank !
When these black men like Taio say this kind of [EXPLETIVE]. It's not about them not liking black women. It's really about not liking themselves. Because you've the same features as me but just masculinized. That goes vice versa for black women that say the same thing about black men. To me, all of it boil down to an inferiority complex and self-hatred of yourself. I couldn't let a white racist defeat my mind like that. Black is beautiful and some of the most beautiful people in the world are black. That's ok Taio because DeNiro, George Lucas, Wolfgang Puck, Bob Dylan and more don't agree with you.
I don't think this comment is true, because I just watched one of his videos and there's black girls in it. I mean there's mostly white girls, but I do see black girls also. But if this statement is true, he didn't say he would never put black chicks in his videos, he just said there were really no hot black girls who came into a casting. I think everyone is taking this way too seriously.
I guess this is the new post racial world, blacks that think success is acting racist against their own kind. I see this all the time in business, you will have a black business who will hire nothing but whites, yet the white world has hardly any blacks in it, then you have stupid blacks who are so brainwashed, they think happiness, is white spouse, all white suburb, only black on the job, vs. all black suburb, 100% black owned business and building up HBCUs, this is one of the main reasons blacks arent respect world wide, we are foolish as hell as a people. What an idiot.
i actually think this is major funny.has anyone ever seen a Lady Gaga video?.all black men hmm.when will these athletes.singers.rappers.actors.realize that its the people who raised you who made you.if he doesnt want black women in his video fine no problem us american girls aint losing a dime.and like dude said if his CD comes to USA youll be seeing it in a clearance basket at walmart..oops i mean kmart near you real soon!.
PERSONALLY MTO I THINK YOU ARE BEING STUPID LIKE USUAL WITH ANY RACE ISSUE AND WHOEVER WROTE THIS PIECE NEEDS TO GROW UP AND RE-READ THE DETAILS COS HE CLEARLY SAID THAT THE ONLY REASON HE WONT PUT A BLACK GIRL IN HIS VIDS IS COS HE WANTS TO BE A REBEL AGAINST THE PPL WHO THINK HE SHOULD. NOT BECAUSE HE DOESNT LIKE BLACK WOMEN. SO YET AGAIN UR JUST PLAYIN UP THE IGNORASNT PPL WHO GET EXCITED AND AGRESIVE ABOUT STUFF LIKE THIS AND U NEED TO STOP THAT
Wtf?? is going on in tha music world TODAY... in the 80's ,70's , or 90's...artists nevah talked about their own race or disrepected anyone and put BLACK girls in their video!
now these "ARTISTS" are even "brave" enough to talk about thier own race and even disrespect themselves in PUBLIC...instead of talking about it BEHIND closed doors...i love new trends...but im starting to listen 2 old songz again.WE CANT SUPPORT ANYONE WHO STARTS TALKING ABOUT STUPID SHYT LIKE LIGHT/DARK SKIN..respect your own kind...brainwashed dumbasses.. ..AND THIS TAIO CRUZ IS UGLY AS SHYT.. @NOMAAM ...STFU!!

Most black men in the U.S are dating or married to a black woman. I see black folks in the U.S with black other black women and men in every complexion. Most black men want black women where Im from. Our artist in the states are known world wide and he is not known here, so he must be lame as hell lol.
It's so sad how someone can come out the womb of a black woman and exhibit this kind of behavior. It's a good thing his music sucks and I won't miss it anyway. Real smart move to just come out on the scene with one mediocre song and alienate your possible black listeners. I know his momma must be proud...
@Lockstress...I loved your comment!
@ITSTOOMUCH...You were on a roll until you started denigrating black women too. I don't know if you're one of us or not, but whoever this Z-list rapper is made the comment about black women, he could have said the same about any other race..Why didn't he? You're feeding into the stereotype just like he is.......
Let him stay across the pond...We don't want him here....
OMG!!!! i knew it!!! lmao before i even opened it and read the store i somehow just KNEW it was gonna be taio cruz. SMH
his music is cool. and if you look at his videos they arent like american booty shaking videos they are classy videos for those of you saying " black women dont need to be half naked shaking butts anyways in videos" every youtube video of his people are talking about why there are never black women in his videos. ughh
this is what discourages me from dating my own race we hate each other. damn black men... damn!
I would'nt care how famous he is; wheather here or elsewhere, being in his videos is not something that is of any importance to me at all. I don't have any concerns about how black men feel about us, no matter where in the world they may be. With SIX PLUS BILLION PEOPLE ON EARTH; why would I or any black women for that matter care about what some bitter black woman hating black man thinks or says about us black women anyway? If I was to concern myself with anyone's thoughts of me, it damn sure would'nt be the thoughts of some black dude; I can assure you.
No, we didn't know who this cat was until MTO mentioned him. Thanks MTO for bringing someone insignificant to light! MTO knows that this is a website that many blk women frequent; therefore they post stupid pieces abt black men not wanting blk women in their videos. Obviously MTO likes to post these weak-ass pieces to get blk women going. Its just like last week when someone at MTO that found that article from that racist website referring to blk women as "shaneequas". Then he tried to make it seem like it was such a shocking article and MTO is just reporting news. Why would anyone be shocked to read something derogatory abt blk men or women on a white supremacist website? I just found it rather odd that someone from the MTO staff wld go fishing for such a piece just to post it on a website that has a predominantly blk audience. WAKE UP BLK WOMEN…THIS IS JUST MTO’S INDIRECT WAY OF DOGGING YOU!! I also agree with Rae-Rae17 on that Leona Lewis point. The same can also be said for Sade, Kerry Washington, and now Halle Berry and Sanaa Lathan.…..THEY DON’T LIKE BLK EITHER. But you don't see MTO making these facts their headlines because they wld rather see a whole string of comments from blk women who feel bad abt blk men supposedly not being attracted to them. MTO is worse than this UK artist that they wasted time featuring. Furthermore, why do respectable blk people want to see blk women in hip-hop videos making fools of themselves? I’m glad Wale and the UK oreo artist don’t want black women in their videos. One less thing blk women have to be embarrassed about!!
Look at this post from his official twitterpage. I think you guys have got him all wrong on here. See below...
What on earth are people talking about?!! Have you not seen my videos "Movin On" [link to external website removed] and Break Your Heart Feat Luda! [link to external website removed] Get ready for Dirty Picture Feat Kesha!
Nigggggas are the stupidest people in the planet, mad because some musician they never heard of wont put a black chick in a video HAHAHAHA! Its his video, its his right leave the man be. If he dont want to deal with a bunch of neck snappin, bad attitude having black chicks on his video then its his right.

I AGREE [EXPLETIVE] ARE STUPID MORE SO THE BLACK MAN YOU RARELY HEAR BLACK W0MEN SAYING STUPID STUFF LIKE THIS BUT BLACK MEN HATE THEMSELVES SO MUCH ITS REAL SAD.BECAUSE BLACK WOMEN LOOK LIKE BLACK MEN SO IF YOU DOWN BW YOU DOWNING YOURSELF.ALL BLACK WOMEN DONT HAVE ATTITUDES.

Why are we even giving this tired ass jigga boo the time of day? But remember he aint the 1st artist we had to get on for not puttin sistahs on, or only light skinned chicks. Ja rule and all them was doing that [EXPLETIVE] back in the day. But they exploit these women so if a white or hispanic chick wants to jump 1st in line to be exploited let em, cuz black women have been exploited enuff.
