Lol @ tellin black folks to stop idolizing entertainers in 2024. At some some yall gotta stop tellin black folks to not do that. It's too late. That hasn't changed in decades. And it won't change.
We bitch about not having represention in all these industries. Yet when one of us grinds and becomes successful...we're quick to tear them down.

I've always taken that phrasing to mean stop idolizing and expecting them to be more than entertainers. Like if an entertainer or athlete isn't outspoken about a cause or issue it shouldn't be an instant indictment against them and often times it is which can be unfair.
