raven symone from that's so raven made it big!. she's black and she's a women!. if you've watched the show, there's this one episode where she designs a dress for a fashion show and a lot of it is about weight issues in the media!. raven thinks she's gonna be wearing the dress she designs but the woman in charge tells her she's too fat!. and then because the show's on disney channel, "the moral of the story" is that looks/weight don't matter!. i've also read magazine articles about raven and she talks about problems her weight has given her but she's happy the way she is and she still made it big despite everything she had to go through!.
i would hope the fact that you're black and a woman wouldn't be too much of a problem in this day in age but there are still some racist/sexist people out there that you might have to deal with some day!. i hate to break it to you but your weight may be a problem, simply because a lot people are so obsessed with being skinny that they think it's the only way to be beautiful!. of course they are wrong but that's the affect the media can have on people!. however, i think the more talent you have, the better a shot you have at making it big!. you just have to be ready to face rejection due to things you have no control over!. it has nothing to do with you, just the single-mindedness of whoever's casting the roles!. all actors/actresses have to deal with it though!. they have some quality they have to control over (tall, short, fat, skinny, black, white, asian, hispanic, man, woman, young, old, etc) which can cost them a role they deserve!. you've just gotta push past the rejection, realize it wasn't your fault, move on, and keep trying!.
i wish you the best of luck because i think if you do make it big, you would be an excellent role model for the kids who watch your show :)
p!.s!. i'm very sorry your mom said that to you!. i'm sure that must have hurt very much!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
