Phylicia Rashad Throws Shade at Young Black Women’s Clothing Choices on ‘The Breakfast Club,’ Setting Social Media Ablaze

One social media user supported her stance, writing, “She said what she said!”

“You came up in an era when dignity and grace was everything,” Charlamagne began in a clip circulating online. “You ever look at how wild Hollywood is now, and think to yourself, ‘Boy, y’all got it easy. Y’all wouldn’t ever get away with what we did.’ ”

“Well you have a look at Hollywood and I’ll look at how young ladies dress,” Rashad replied. “Young ladies are so beautiful, they are so beautiful. And something has happened in popular culture — and I don’t mean to be critical and I hope young ladies listening don’t take it as personal criticism because I don’t mean it that way.”
