Fake ass Blacks like Lenny Kravitz kill me. They live their lives like they aren't Black then want to do projects like this about the struggles of real Black folks in the struggle. Naomi Cambell is another fake *****. Sucking off all these grey boys in her personal life then acting like she's a sista in urban videos. What's next Nicole Ritchie in the remake of Roots?
