Girl, Bye - Stacey Dash has, in recent years, become known more for her scandalous and offensive opinions on just about everything — even when it comes to her own people — than her primary career: acting. Now, with her recent dismissal of BET, Black History Month and just about everything Black, several celebs have come forward telling the Clueless actress to be quiet. From Gabrielle Union to her ex Ryan Prophet, no one is here for what she has to say.(Photos from left: Nicholas Hunt/Getty Images for Sundance Film Festival, Guillermo Proano/WENN, Paul Hawthorne/Getty Images)

Gabrielle Union - Being Mary Jane star Gabrielle Union held no punches when asked about Stacey Dash. In fact, she doesn't even know her (*wink*). When asked by a reporter at the Sundance Film Festival how she felt about Dash's ridiculous comments, she responded, "Who's Stacey Dash? Is she, like, related to Dame Dash? Was she on Roc-A-Fella?" Refusing to give the Clueless actress any more shine, she continued, speaking on the issue, with one final jab: "The more that we focus on inclusion and a true representation of this country, I think that crazy lady will have less to say," she said.(Photo: Ben Gabbe/Getty Images)

Vivica A. Fox - It's no secret that actress Vivica A Fox is not afraid to speak her mind, so Stacey Dash is definitely not exempt. However, her shade is vintage, dating back to 2012 when Dash endorsed then-presidential candidate Mitt Romney in a sexually suggestive photoshoot. "I don't know why she had to do a photo shoot in a Baywatch red swimsuit with the boobs and the whole flag behind her," Fox said. "And she doesn't have a job or something to promote right now. I just didn't get it." Neither did anyone else, Viv.(Photo: Alberto E. Rodriguez/Getty Images)

Janet Hubert - Janet Hubert was on a roll this month, starting with the Smiths before moving on to Stacey Dash, and go in she did. During a sit-down interview on HuffPost Live, she was asked to speak on Dash's recent comments. "Somebody needs to slap the little bit of Black she got on her off of her, OK?... Because girlfriend has worked on BET more than most actresses have," she said.(Photo: Patricia Schlein/Star Max/GC Images)

Whoopi Goldberg - Whoopi Goldberg took her leadership role on The View to shed some light on the Stacey Dash controversy and to explain exactly why BET and Black History Month are necessary. "American history holds all of us but we're not all treated like Americans," she said. "One of the reasons there is a BET is because networks wouldn't take a lot of the shows that have an all-Black cast."(Photo: Slaven Vlasic/Getty Images)

Ryan Prophet - Being Stacey Dash's ex must have been an interesting experience, and Ryan Prophet proved just that when he slammed her on Instagram, questioning her morality and even airing out some dirty laundry in the process. "@realstaceydash your views on black culture & people of color as a whole are F*****g terrible," he wrote. "I wonder do you truly love your self... Just remember bleacking [sic] your skin is poisonous." Following this, he posted a screenshot of a conversation between the two where she demanded he take down the post, but he slapped her with a sweet "nope."(Photo: Paul Hawthorne/Getty Images)

Marlon Wayans - Marlon Wayans jokes around a lot, but in between the funny comments, he usually says something that makes you go "hmm." During a sit down with BET discussing his new film, the actor was asked which celebrity he feels deserves to be shaded by Black twitter. He didn't even hesitate before saying Dash's name. "I'm going to have to go with Stacey Dash for $300, Chuck," he said. "She's different. I don't judge her. I don't agree with her at all, but I hear what she's trying to say."(Photo: Dimitrios Kambouris/Getty Images for Turner)

Game - Game is another one of those public figures who has been very vocal as of late on just about everything, and recently he made his views on Dash known. Speaking with The Daily Beast, he said, "I think Stacey Dash is going over the line in everything she's going these days, and she's getting ridiculed for it. At the end of the day, to get looked down on by your own culture is not a good thing."(Photo: Mike Windle/Getty Images for Equinox)

Bun B - If there's one OG who keeps it all the way real on just about everything, it's Texas hip hop vet Bun B.

"Hating yourself and us won't make them love you."(Photo: Bob Levey/Getty Images for Remy Martin)

Damon Dash - Damon Dash is pretty much used to Stacey Dash's polarizing personality as he's her blood relative. When asked about the controversy, the former hip hop CEO said, "I'm used to it. Stacey's always saying... something that's going to evoke an emotion, especially when it comes to the culture... It's annoying having a cousin that looks like that and has an opinion and that works for Fox News."(Photo: Jerod Harris/Getty Images for WE tv)
