Mekhi Phifer Comments On Super Bowl Breast Flash
Mekhi Phifer was a guest on the syndicated news magazine show ‘Entertainers with Byron Allen’ on Sunday night, where he discussed his new film ‘Dawn of the Dead’ and his desire to do a film with Al Pacino. But his most interesting quote was his opinion about Justin Timberlake on the Janet Jackson ‘Super Bowl’ incident. When Byron asked him about how he feels about musicians getting into the movie industry, he said, “Don’t get me wrong, there are a lot of talented actors out there, who happen to be musicians, but there are a lot more who should just stay behind the mic.”
Byron read off a list of names, including Justin Timberlake, Eve, Mandy Moore and Ice Cube, and Mekhi was unimpressed for the most part. “I respect Cube, he’s been putting it down for a long time, he shouldn’t even be included in that category. I don’t know much about Mandy Moore, and I’m not a Justin Timberlake fan.” Byron asked why, and he bluntly said, “Well, I got love for Janet Jackson and I didn’t like that nonsense he tried to pull after the Super Bowl. The media blew it out of proportion, but I still think he punked out on her. You did something together, you gotta stick together.” He continued, “That’s how I am, anyway. If I’m involved in something that gets me caught up, I’ll own up to my part in it – I’ll take the blame for what I’ve done. I didn’t see him do that, did you?”
Byron then said he thought Justin may have just been in shock about the whole thing and didn’t think before making statements. Mekhi then shrugged and somewhat agreed, saying, “Maybe. You know, I don’t think anyone’s perfect. We all make mistakes, but I think it takes responsibility to accept them.”
