“He didn’t say that.”

“So what did he say then? Translate”

“I don’t need to.”

:why:

According to you, everyone in the comments are outraged over nothing.
He is right though, he didnt say what you posted verbatim.

“Nadie de los que estábamos en esa sala ayer, estábamos viendo el color de tu piel, todos incluída mi mujer y mis hijos estábamos perdidos en tus ojos"

None of us who were in the room were looking at the color of your skin, everyone including my wife and kids were lost in your eyes.

From what I gather that was his cringe attempt to say that it doesn’t matter that a black girl is playing the little mermaid. Im not fluent in spanish so I cant speak to all of the comments, some folks were mad he even mentioned color. And thats a thing in Latin America, its not that they dont have racism they just avoid talking about race like the plague. Thats how that fake”racial harmony” someone spoke about is preserved.

Well that’s the thing. Saying “that’s not what he said verbatim.” And saying “he didn’t say that” and accusing me of stirring shyt up, are two different things.

I appreciate you at least adding some clarity to the translation instead of throwing rocks then hiding your hands like that ho ass nikka @GreenGhxst

I literally lifted the translation from the numerous comments. So it was enough to offend the Spanish speakers, and they’re not exactly known for being politically correct.

“tienes tan bonitos ojos que nos hacen olvidar que eres negra”
“you have such pretty eyes that make us forget you're black”

I guess there’s no direct Spanish for “transcends race.” :mjpls:


The journalist is from Argentina so you already know the deal. :mjpls:

@Remote

Can you give us a translation of what he said?

:martin: :childplease: the fukking audacity of this spicy cac....

EDIT: did he say that shyt or is OP paraphrasing?
Not coming at you Breh, just the other clowns complaining but not giving their “translation”.

These are literally the top comments on the YouTube video:

“Amé la parte la que Halle tuvo que escuchar en carne propia como le decian que sus "sus ojos son tan bonitos que hacen olvidar que es nxgrx”
“where Halle had to listen firsthand how they told her that her "her eyes are so pretty that they make you forget she's nxgrx"


Durante su encuentro, Patricio le dijo a Bailey que: "Te lo prometo, nadie de los que estábamos en la sala estábamos viendo el color de tu piel, todos estábamos perdidos en tus ojos", sostuvo con una sonrisa. Cabe señalar que luego de que se anunciara el elenco de esta adaptación, muchos quedaron inconformes con los actores que darían vida a los personajes de este cuento infantil.”
“During their meeting, Patricio told Bailey that: "I promise you, none of us in the room were seeing the color of your skin, we were all lost in your eyes," he said with a smile. It should be noted that after the cast of this adaptation was announced, many were dissatisfied with the actors who would give life to the characters in this children's story.”

“Patricio: "no nos dimos cuenta de qué eres negra"
Halle: gracias 🥺.
WTF la entrevista 😂
“Patricio: "we didn't realize that you are black"
Halle: thank you .
WTF the interview 😂



I can post many more. One poster on here gave slightly different translation. All the other clowns are like “that’s not what he said” but aren’t providing the alternative.

I swear, there are some remedial nikkas on here.

And yet you have some posters on here acting as if I’ve wildly misrepresented his words.

Despite the fact 99% of the Spanish speakers in the comments are condemning him, somehow that’s not what he said.

These clowns are acting indignant but can’t “correct” what I’ve translated wrong.

I know it’s TLR and I’m not expecting much in terms of common sense, but a simple “actually, what he said was” as opposed to “OMG. You’re lying, he didn’t say that at al!l” with a correction seems too much to ask.

The one poster who gave his translation only slightly differs, yet the sentiment is the same. I don’t understand this fake outrage by some people on here. How are they more mad at me than him? :dahell:
