Jay-Z Views "Brokeback Mountain"

(AHN) - Rap moguls enjoy Academy Award nominated movies, too – at least that’s the excuse Jay-Z can use to explain why he was spotted in a movie theater watching “Brokeback Mountain,” the tale of two gay cowboys who are sent to a mountain in search of work as sheepherders.

With his money, Hova should be able to get a screening copy to view in his home. No word on whether Bouncy (Beyonce) attended the movie with him.

I find it ridiculous rather than funny that they said ...the excuse Jay-Z can use to explain why he was spotted in a movie theater watching “Brokeback Mountain as if a black straight rapper needs an excuse to go watch a movie about two men in love, he might just be interested in it cause he heard it is a great movie no matter whether it's about a straight, bi, gay, human love story. Sometimes I found news reports very disappointing and sad and full of prejudices...  >:(

   Yeah, the "reporter" put a homophobic twist on it, made it the focus of the story. Do we need to hear her speculation that he might need an excuse? She's just displaying her ignorance.
