Saying she should be deeply ashamed of herself, the head of the National Hispanic Media Coalition has called on renowned acting coach Lesly Kahn to meet with him to discuss an audio file that surfaced yesterday in which she can be heard telling a non-Hispanic student that she would have a better chance of landing an agent and acting gigs if she pretends to be Latina.
Kahn, who has apologized, went so far as to suggest that the young actress change her name to Rosa Ramirez and to get headshots to further advance the deception.
On the tape, Kahn told a class of acting students that the young woman should come with a Hispanic name that will absolutely convince people that youre Latin.
The young woman told Kahn that she is Armenian 100% Ashkenazi Jewish but that she often gets mistaken for Hispanic.

This is news? The only news here is that someone, in Hollywood no less, was concerned about authenticity.
Elizabeth Warren figured out that her path to career advancement was enhanced by appearing to be 1/32 (or zero) Native American Indian.
Acting , who needs it ,LOL
Direct result of George H.W. Bush’s plan to turn the USA into an Hispanic country.
The woman who played Vasquez in Aliens 2 II was telling a Hispanic woman who interviewed her that although she wasn’t Hispanic she played one because she was a character actor and the woman didn’t have a problem with it all.
Political Correctness will kill movies. They’re bad enough already.
Leftist PC Hispanics, all in unison, shout out “KAHN”!!!!
In space, nobody gives a crap.
I remember several years ago there were reports of white people who wanted to work as news readers and couldn’t get hired. As soon as they changed their names to Latino sounding names, they were getting hired. The scandal wasn’t that non-Hispanic whites were getting discriminated against. No...the scandal was that these whites were taking jobs that Latinos were entitled to.
That’s why Elizabeth Warren claimed to be American Indian. She was in an acting class and the acting coach told her she could better roles as a native American.
Hollywood is all phony anyway so be a meskin if you want to.
It’s infuriating that some people think it’s okay to discriminate against white people.
Haha. She’s a terrible actress. :D
That’s weird. I never heard anything about this from the National Caucasian Media Coalition.
Or she could pretend to be Native American and change her name to Elizabeth Warren.
Whats the National Hispanic Media Coalition?
Paging Geraldo Rivera....
“Its infuriating that some people think its okay to discriminate against white people”
Its ok because if white people cant get a job, they will just create a business
