So the moral of the story is if you have a weak voice but you are pretty you will succeed. If you are heavy or unattractive no matter your talent you should push brooms all your life in America?

I mean can you show me a fat woman who can sing her ass off that isn't really that pretty that is has had a number one album?
I mean the closest you'll get are The Weather Girls and Martha Walsh.and plz don't say JHud because she is a big girl but she's still commercially prettyshe's not like the female equivalent of someone like Ruben Studdard.show me a woman who is at least as big as Ruben or old Luther that is a number one recording artistin the pop and r&b charts. -

Aretha Franklin
Mama Cass
Patti Austin
Lead Singer of Heart
Adele
There are plenty of men singers but not many women I wonder why.
I understand that there should be novelty acts women who are pretty who cant sing but when it becomes the rule then there is a problem. We miss out on great music and it is just manufactured pop stars with no soul -

I agree I understand that there should be some novelty acts (britney spears etc) but why cant they have great singers who dont rely on looks. THink of all the great female singers who will never see the light of day because of weight or looks.

"Moral" not "Morale". Two different words.
And this isn't the "moral" of the story, anyway. This is how they portray Curtis as being a snake. HE thought that Effie shouldn't be lead. That's why he's the bad guy. It's not the "moral".

If the film has a moral it would be: don't let your ego get the better of you.
To be fair on Effie, it did seem to be a decision based on commercialism. In order to cross over to a white audience, the group could not have been led by Effie as she is deemed "too" black. So it is not surprising why Effie was offended by the decision.
I'd rather be hated for who I am, than loved for who I am not.
