Sad News! Stacey Dash Leaves "Single Ladies" Cast!


DAMN! That was fast!!! What happened? Who's gonna replace her???

Via Global Grind:
Stacey Dash has finally broken her silence about the possibility of continuing her starring role on VH1's Single Ladies. She has released a statement exclusively to GlobalGrind,
"I truly enjoyed playing Val on 'Single Ladies', but I have decided to leave the show. I have to be back in L.A. with my children right now and the 'Single Ladies' shooting location makes that impossible. I wish VH1 the best of luck with the show and in maintaining the strong fan base we developed in season one."
VH1 has also released a statement,
"VH1 respects Stacey’s decision and her commitment to what she feels is best for her family. We thank her for all of her hard work in making ‘Single Ladies’ a success right out of the gate, and we wish her nothing but the best in her future plans."
Hold up. Wait. You leave the show because of you wanting to be closer to your children/family? I've constantly heard the stories about women of color complaining about the roles for them being very slim in television/movies. Now, you have a STARRING role on a hit show and decide to leave? I guess. It wouldn't/couldn't be me.

I mean Stacey, what other jobs do you have lined up? What other income do you have? What do you plan to do in LA? I'm sorry, I know I'm all up in her BIZ, but I don't understand this. Why doesn't she want to make this work somehow? Hmmmmm....something ain't right.

Thought, Dancers???
