LisaRaye Did Not Get Stacy Dash Fired


The urban blogosphere has been bubbling under with the news that Stacy Dash was being replaced on 'Single Ladies' [click here if you missed that].

Addressing the rumors that she was the one responsible for the firing, LisaRaye sets the record straight...

From LisaRaye's Facebook page
"As everyone know I am in Italy vacationing. I was just made aware of the lies that are being spread by blogs that like to create false stories. I was not even aware that Stacy Dash had been fired from Single Ladies. Furthermore if she has been fired that is a network decision. I don't have the power to get her fired nor do I have any beef with her. Now im going to go continue enjoying my vacation!"

Series creator Stacy Littlejohn added,
"LisaRaye is a very strong woman and we love her, but she does not have that kind of power, nor at any time did she seek to influence any casting decisions. Furthermore, no cast member of Single Ladies has the power to get another cast member fired. the 6th grade back-stabbing that LisaRaye's being accused of is completely the creation of uninformed, instigating internet gossip. Please don't buy into it. Let's just celebrate that we have a Season 2 coming!!!!"
