SHOCK jock Howard Stern has unleashed a tirade of verbal abuse at Oscar-nominee Gabourey Sidibe.
“There’s the most enormous, fat black chick I’ve ever seen,” Stern said on his Sirius satellite show on Monday. “She is enormous. Everyone’s pretending she’s a part of show business and she’s never going to be in another movie.
“She should have gotten the Best Actress award because she’s never going to have another shot. What movie is she gonna be in?”
Stern and co-host Robin Quivers went on to discuss the impossibility of Gabby finding any work in Hollywood after Precious. “And Oprah’s lying and saying you’re going to have a brilliant career,” said Robin.
“Oprah’s another liar, a filthy liar,” said Stern. “She’s telling an enormous woman the size of a planet that she’s going to have a career.”
Sidibe recently revealed that she’d like to take on a role in a comedy role. “I’ve done a serious role and now I want to be funny,” she said. “So I’m still holding on to my job just in case it doesn’t work out. “I work for the Fresh Air Fund and we send kids to camp. I love it but we’ll have to see what happens.”

Wow, I never thought I would ever agree with him on anything....I was wrong.
And I saw a picture of her in an Oscar outfit. It had horizontal stripes. Some stylist has a sense of humor.
Wonder who'll play Howard in that.
I say if a pompous a$$ like Stern can have a career in ‘show business’, then this gal has a chance.
“There’s the most enormous, fat black chick I’ve ever seen,” Stern said”
A real humane human being, that Stern fella...
No, but that one is almost as bad. It, too, has horizontal lines. Poor thing.
it was this one:

"It's all rubbish. I have a brain the size of a planet, you know."
That dress really was an injustice to her figure. But I hope Howard Stern is wrong. I like G.S. - she seems genuine.
Actually, as a character actress she could do just fine. Lotsa work on TV for that category, too. Especially when every other actress in Hollywood looks like they’re auditioning for Ms Praying Mantis.
She seems like a nice girl, and I hope she does well. But, it has dawned on me that she may have a problem finding acting work aside from this particular role.
Stern is a buffoon.

She could play Jabba the Hut.
Or Pizza the Hut.
Or play Oprah if Oprah decides to do a movie about her life story.
I am offended by what, I think, the weasle in the back ground of the photo is THINKING...
She seems sweet and bubbly. I find her engaging. Will she get glamorous leading lady roles at that size? Of course not: even size 8 chicks can’t get those these days. But there are roles for a girl of her description, and she’s got a leg up on them.
