Reading the book now. So beautiful!
Freaking LOVE misty. Her documentary was so good.
I was there when she had this encounter with Raven and I had a chance to speak with Raven at a later event
Hey this is Bob in Connecticut but I’m going to break up the present conversation because I am still wondering why you didn’t ask Kyle Chandler about season 4 of bloodline which many people consider one of the best shows of all time right up there with breaking bad the Sopranos Ozark. He is always going to be known as John Rayburn. Bloodline season 4 was supposed to be May 20, 2022 that’s what it said all over RUclips and now it says the middle of May 2023. We need more bloodline🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩
Kelly didn't seem interested in Misty at all and kept referring to the picture on her book almost like she didn't know what to say and thought it was weird she had Tim Allen and his daughter still there same with the next ppl that help the kids learn to dance the Bonnie lady....Drew Barrymore show is way better
She's way too obsessed with her race. She's mentioned it multiple times. I've seen several interviews with her and it's a total obsession for her 🙄😒
Ballet isn't racist. I mean, where did it originate, guessing Russia...so how is that racist 🤔. Do people look like her in Russia, maybe because she's mixed and could pull off Turkish. But not everything has to do with race. Most Americans would never have the opportunities she has had, yet she chooses to keep playing victim.
Well it is important to bring awareness to race in the ballet world because ballet progresses very slowly with the times. It wasn't until the last several years where we are seeing more POC in principal roles.
The reason she mentions race so often is because it has only been in recent years, that people of color have been allowed to rise to become principal dancers in ballet companies. It was racism that kept the door shut for POC like her mentor who was (more than) talented enough to deserve the opportunity to become a principal ballerina, but was denied the chance simply because of the color of her skin.
spirit ranger, unfortunately, people just love racism too much🥹.
You know they didn't even make ballet shoes or tights in darker skin tones until fairly recently right? Black female ballet dancers, gymnasts, and figure skaters were not very common 20 years ago. Figure Skating had Surya Bonaly, gymnastics had Dominique Dawes, Stellah Umeh and Elvire Teza and Kathy Johnson, and Ballet had Misty Copeland. She's not obsessed. She's highlighting a minority.
But why expect anything less than a crappy comment from a " spirit ranger" troll. You have zero content and 1 subscriber. Keep hiding behind that keyboard of yours, I hope your life is as lonely as I imagine it to be.
