Kevin Hart Lashes Out At Fan: When are black people going to stop being so hard on their own kind?
A fan/critic recently found themselves on the receiving end of a Twitter lecture by Kevin Hart. Apparently, someone tweeted the comedic actor suggesting that both he and Marlon Wayans should stop doing stereotypical movies. Instead of ignoring said critic/fain, Hart addressed their criticism in a series of Tweets. Check ’em out below.

From the movie business…Ex “Black Movies”….I make movies for everyone, I’m actually overseas promoting my movie on a international level

I’m busting my ass so other actors of color can eventually get the title “Black Movie Category” removed from the projects that we do.
