View Full Version : Celebrity Hot or Not AAE...Vol 3...Sanaa Lathan
TheOhioStateUniversity
04-17-2006, 08:19 AM
Halle Berry 74.65%
Vida Guerra 67.01%
Well in vol 2 Vida Guerra proved a good behind just isnt enough for FOFC. As we continue with the celebrity hot or not Affirmative Action Edition we move on to an actress that is slowly moving up in Hollywood. If you saw her in Something New I hope you were as impressed as I, shes definately hot in my book.

TheOhioStateUniversity, I like what you're doing here.
Guys, perhaps it's funny to shit on these polls once or twice, but is this going to become a running gag? I get that not all of you haven't heard of Vida Guerra or Sanaa Lathan, but some of us have. It's not like he just picked out some woman he saw sitting on a bus.
Hell, he doesn't need me to defend him, but perhaps I'm just getting fed up with half the threads on FOFC having people shit on 'em, and this is the one I picked to voice my displeasure in.

To me, if most people here have to look someone up on the internet to figure out who it is then they're not a celebrity. This is especially true if even after they look them up, they still don't know who it is. Guess I'm a Eurosnob too. :D

Sanaa hasn't been in movies that have had a wide appeal. Most of her films have been African American themed films, except for AVP. That may have something to do with the reason she isn't as well known around here as say Halle Berry or Angela Bassett. But she is definitely a very talented actress who've I've enjoyed watching.
Doesn't mean she's not a celebrity, just means she's a celebrity who's movies have not been seen by a majority of the people here.

Honestly, I'd never heard of her either; unless an actress is very mainstream and is played up in the media, I'm not going to know of her and am not going to have a good enough read on if she's hot or not besides what can be taken from google. I just don't watch movies anymore.

Thanks Pumpy Tudors and rjolley, it seems some people have nothing better to do than go around and complain about a message board celebrity hot or not poll. Believe it or not you people are not the center of the universe...just because you dont know of her doesnt mean she isnt a celebrity. As I have said maybe 5 times before she is probably not in your CIRCLE and thus you wont know her unless you have seen movies like Brown Sugar, Love and Basketball, and The Best Man. Im suprised no one here has seen her in Out of Time with Denzel though. These are primarily "African American" targeted movies so while your teenage children probably have heard of her middle age white men probably wouldnt depending on their interests. This is really the last time I want to discuss this, the purpose of this alternate poll was to introduce women of color who are celebrities in their own right but probably not well known to most around here. Now VOTE, comment on her, or IGNORE MY POLLS. Thanks

I seen Out of Time. Good movie and she had a pretty good performance. Seen the Best Man as well, but have yet to see Brown Sugar or Love and Basketball. With that said, I am not sure why people are jumping on you for this poll. Just make a vote after viewing the pics. It's that easy. There have been a number of celebrity hot or nots in which I did not recognize the name of the actor.

Looking at more picks, I guess I'll vote hot, though I was thinking there was something about her face in some shots that bugged me. Nobody else probably sees it, but facially, she reminds me a little of Rachel Ray. Much better body though.
I know she's not getting any younger, but what about Garcelle Beauvais (guess she's about 40 now, but darn, does she look good in Jamie Foxx reruns that I flip through every now and then)?

Exactly. I am making no criticism on the "theme", it's the selection of "celebrities" that I was commenting on... I voted yes for the first two, but they were actual celebrities (although some even took issue with the ER girl, but that's mainstream celebrity imo).

While I think noops accusation of racism is dumb, I think what he's really getting at is that some people have inate racial preferences when it comes to women. I have some friends who just aren't attracted to black women or Asian women, or whatever. And vice-versa. I think it's a subconscious cultural bias rather than intentional racism. If I'm being honest, I prefer white women although I'm still an equal opportunity employer.

Which is in the same realm as preferences in hair color, height, weight, boob size, booty size, facial shape, or pretty much anything that draws the line between "Hot" and "Not".

Shes more a celebrity than American idol participants that haven't even won the thing. As far as that bad close up picture you chose Im sure we can go down the list of Kodos poll women and find unflattering pictures of them all. Everyone takes a bad picture, thats life. If you continued that google search of yours you would find many very good ones as well.

= ...really who the hell are YOU in the grand scheme of things.
Don't blame me boy wonder, I'm not the one somebody tried to pawn off in a celebrity poll.
You know, "celebrity" ... as in "famous" ... as in "well-known".
Oh ... wait ... sorry ...obviously you don't know.

Ok, so let me get this right, anyone that YOU dont know is not a celebrity? So if I threw out a name like Young Jeezy, would that ring a bell to you? I doubt many here would know who he is yet he went platinum last year. So is he not famous either? The thing Ive said all along is that she's probably not going to be someone on your radar, she is not pushed hard by the WHITE entertainment media and has starred in African American themed movies for the most part. Yet for many in my age bracket and in general she is definately a celebrity. I feel like some of you are just being A holes on purpose so this is my last post defending anyone I chose for MY poll.

(dammit, sometimes I hate Firefox...let's try this again).
It's all frame of reference TOSU. For the board at large, she's not a celebrity because they don't know of her. When they see 'celebrity', they expect to see someone they know and have an opinion of already. So you're just selling to a tough market. Ryan could probably name some Page 3 girls who are "celebs" in Britain, but would barely register here. Same could go for Japanese AV Idols, or actresses from Bollywood, etc. Yeah, it's odd when it is someone who is here in America and is in mainstream movies, but like it's been said, they've been largely marketed to African-Americans. By and large, that just ain't us. You could randomly pluck picks of any chick from the internet and ask hot or not, and it would register about the same.
That said, I think everyone can back off a bit. Let TOSU do his thing. If you don't like the choices, just go ahead and be silent, let the poll wither if it needs to.

And - absolutely no clue on Young Jeezy. But, just as I don't watch movies, I don't listen to any new music either.
(Ok, I did happen to hear Pon de Replay while scanning last week...2005 is "new" for me. And, I'd say Rihanna is pretty hot. She's 18 now, so I'm allowed to say that...)

Really the matter of if you actually know the person is inconsequential, as I said in an earlier post I am using well known women like Halle Berry as well as introducing lesser known women like Vida to FOFC. I just dont understand why the same people need to make the same complaints every new poll.

Which is in the same realm as preferences in hair color, height, weight, boob size, booty size, facial shape, or pretty much anything that draws the line between "Hot" and "Not".
Jared Diamond has an interesting section on our sexual preferences being innate as a result of...damm I forget what the factors are. But it's in his book "The Third Chimpanzee." I could dig it up if i wasn't already in bed with the lights out, and i'm sure someone else will know off the top of their head anyways

put them in your poll please TOSU. Or what about that girl who played "Ashley" on Fresh Prince. Damm now she was YUMMY!! Or what about the girl who was in Bad Boys II as Martin Lawrence's sister? Who the hell was she anyways...damm I'd do dirty things to her!
A friend of mine was a weather girl in Kansas City for about a year. I say she should be next on the Celebrity poll. :D

WTF kind of name is Jeezy? Sounds like a disease.
Jeezy is dope. I suggest you listen to his mixtape.

Actually there have been only a few that I voted hot (charlize) and a few I didn't (camel-lips, madonna, diaz), the rest I just don't have a strong opinion on one way or another, like Kiera, so I abstain. There have been some that came up that others thought it would score near 100% but actually didn't come close. That's the good thing about diverse opinions and the freedom to say so.

It's also probably a bad example since I know who he is.
(Although with a name like Young Jeezy, "rapper" is kind of an obvious guess)
I couldn't pick him out of a lineup, nor could I tell you what he sounds like nor come close to naming a single song title ... but I know the name & know he's a rapper.
Whether I give a damn about what the guy does, I'd say he qualifies as a "celebrity".
(I'd say the same for Lil' Jon, who was noted as being in the crowd at the Thrashers game Saturday. I couldn't come close to naming anything he's done, but I know who he is)

So you have no preference whatsoever when it comes to the racial features of your women?
Ummmm...that post was meant to be sarcastic. :)
To answer your question: No. I don't have a preference when it comes to the racial features of women. As long as they don't have an adam's apple (indicating something downstairs), I'm good. Interestingly, I don't think I was as open prior to living in El Paso for 8 years. At first, Hispanic women didn't appeal to me; now, they do just as much if not more so. I think it's a combination of being immersed in the "culture" as well as being older and more mature.

Personally, I just vote on the people that I've seen in multiple settings. Anyone can look good in a well done glamour shot and some people look good in one movie, but look like crap in another. The more you've seen them, the better idea you have if someone is actually hot or not. This reminds me of going on a blind date with a friend's friend in college. She showed me a pic of her from one of those glamour shot places. She was definitely an 8.5 in the pic. Picked her up and she was definitely a 2.5. :( I still have no idea how the photographer got all of her nose in the pic without it casting a shadow on the rest of her body.
