Thursday, August 9, 2007

Here is another edition of Style Star for you, featuring actress Gabrielle Union.

One thing I’ve always admired about Gabrielle Union since she’s been in the business is the level of class, sophistication, and elegance she brings wherever she goes. She can be on the red carpet or at a hot club in Miami, and still pull off a sexy but, classy look.

One to not wear huge labels, Gabrielle is a fan of boutiques and soft but classic styles. Not only underrated with her style, but with her talent - Gabrielle deserves this week spotlight.

Lets take a closer look at Gabrielle’s style…
SHE LOVES THE BELTS

@72 lula pear

If i’m correct, this is largely a blog for african americans, and so that’s why the stories are in large about black actors/entertainers/models/dancers.

If i remember correctly, Angel said the reason why they created the blog was because if you go to the majority of the blogs, they weren’t about black people, instead they were about brad pitt, jennifer aniston, angelina jolie, paris hilton, lindsay lohan, britney spears, and etc. So they wanted to create a blog that highlights african amercans, whether its stories that relate to blacks or concerns blacks, or whether its about black celebrities.

She just did daddy’s little girls at the end of last year or beginning of this year; not sure, so that’s recent.

And she’s going to be producing a show on television. Sorry, i don’t have all the details, but i remember when i was reading about it, they said this is going to be huge for her.

@81

hope you weren’t referring to me because first off, i never said this is a ALL BLACK anything, i used words like “largely” and “mostly”.

And you said this is a urban site, not a black site, well at last check, there’s a huge number of black people who live in urban areas, dare i say mostly urban areas of the cities. Dare i say, urban areas are made up mostly of blacks…that’s where our numbers concentrate.

(breathing deeply) really wish some people would pick up a book…….oh, and read it!

#81. I never said Halle is the most beautiful, but she is definitely a beautiful woman.

And why is it when you don’t jump on the Love Bandwagon for certain celebs, then you are hating.?? I never could understand that.

ANYWAY.. like I said before in MY opinion, she is overrated. I haven’t seen her act in anything worthy of mentioning or seeing twice. Her style is cute, but not trendsetting.

Ms. Gabrielle Union is a hot one. Very classy actress. Can’t wait to see what she pops up in, in the next upcoming years in film.

@#70, Yeah, I’m serious. I have not seen the honeymooners & daddy’s little girls, but in every other movie, she always plays the character the same way. She’s always a smart, sassy female who is on point with attitude. The variables change very little (man stealer, don’t need a man, career woman, yada yada). Perhaps that is what the role calls her to play, but it gives me the feeling that she dosen’t have any range because she does not step outside of that basic character.

I understand there are not that many roles for black females in Hollywood, so she’s gotta do her thing, whatever that may be, they all do. But that’s what I see, it is what it is.

@91

Yeah, i see your point….Gabby never plays a weak woman…she always plays a strong woman in some way or another. So i see what you are saying, but i guess that’s what i love about her and she played those roles so well, you’d actually think that’s her personality..

94.

dee dee

Thursday, August 9, 2007 /

JSCENE, I do think that is probably just her personality. I actually live in AZ and her father lives here with his family, so she comes through now and then and does the radio shows, her personality seems to be consistent with what we see on TV. One thing is very sure, she is a very strong woman. After being raped and brutalized in real life, she has defintately wound up on top, so she deserves her props!

I LOVE Gabrielle!!!!!! I think she is the modern Brown Girl Renaissance woman! She is classy, elegant, sexy and beautiful. This goes to show that brown girls have it going on as well. I don’t believe anyone should have a negative comment about this DIVA!!!!!

Peace & Blessings!!!!!!!

Hey Mena!

I think flawless is in the eye of the beholder…I’ve seen Halle and Gabrielle in person and Gabrielle is just as cute. Halle really doesn’t stand out that much in person…just my opinion! Nobody in Hollywood is totally natural.

Lula!! This is a black blog…every other white blog can focus on non black fashion icons….we will focus on ours! The sisters and the brothers need to see what WE are wearing and doing..I know I could give two shits about what Posh Spice or Sienna Miller are rocking.

She looks great, luv the different looks but all of them are so classy. She never overdoes it with her style. Simple and chic.

And whoever said Gabby doesnt have acting range is outta there mind bcuz she got the acting game on lock. I am a fan of hers and my favorite from her is Deliver Us From Eva. She was serious but funny. Dont hate, congratulate.

She does have great style by the way it’s So nice to stay in the know because coming from a parents’ perspective it’s so easy to grab sweat pants and go so it like a subliminal bitch slap to put on some heels.

I could have better articulated my last comment… I was beating around the bush, and it ended up sounding worse than if I had just said it. So, here goes: Yes, this is an African American site, and yes we do need one as I am so sick of seeing and hearing about subpar, inflated, white people BUT it does not make sense to inflate more mainstream African American women. I said the same thing in that other Beyonce post… How does that make this site any better if you harp on the same few black celebs “mainstream America” has chosen to embrace…or let into their fold, I should say. It’s like, why should you invent things that aren’t true just to talk about the same old celebs, when it is certainly true for other less popular African American celebs???? I think that’s an injustice… Especially since, as I said before, there just aren’t that many stylish mainstream African Americans… Highlight somebody who truly deserves it… I think bringing light to them and their sense of style is ultimately more interesting, anyway. That’s all…

i think Gavbrielle is beautyful! i dont care what mina says yeah, Halle is fly too but everyone is fly in there own way and gab reps her beauty well. as for her bineg nasty, its a pck of lies, i think no.68 mini mos firend has a complex, get over yourself why do some girls like to think black chics are bithcy just coz we dont ran over to talk to you-?

Hey Amber Nicole.. I agree that it’s hard to tell who’s real and fake in Hollywood… I don’t think Gabrielle is ugly or anything like that.. I just don’t think she’s stylish or gorgeous.. just cute or average looking..

120.

mena

Friday, August 10, 2007 /

#91 DeeDee..thank you! Its the same part over and over again.. I haven’t seen any of those movies listed by #70 except Bad Boys 2, Two Can Play that Game (just shook her ass and that’s it) and don’t want to ( all train wrecks). It’s just the same typical black casting and movie.. It’s boring.. And as far as Bad Boys 2, she didn’t hardly do a damn thing but kiss Will Smith! No range..

I BET THE ONES ON HERE SAYING THAT GABRIELLE UNION ISN’T ALL THAT PRETTY OR IS JUST AVERAGE ARE LIGHT SKINNED AND JEALOUS THAT A BROWN SKINNED GIRL GETS SO MUCH PRAISE AND ATTENTION FOR HER LOOKS AND ACCOMPLISHMENTS

YEP-I SAID IT AND IF IT ISN’T THE CASE FOR YOU THEN I AINT TALKING ABOUT YOU

IT TRIPS ME OUT SO MANY WOMAN WHO HAVE A HARD TIME GIVING ANOTHER WOMAN HER PROPS ESPECIALLY IF THE WOMAN IS ON THE OPPOSITE SPECTRUM OF BEAUTY IN COMPARISON TO THEM-LIGHT VS DARK, TITS OR NO TITS, ASS OR NO ASS

IT’S OBVIOUSLY A SELF-ESTEEM ISSUE IF DOWNPLAY THE ASSET YOU DON’T HAVE THEN IT MAKES YOU FEEL BETTER ABOUT NOT HAVING IT-OR IF YOU DOWNPLAY ANOTHER PERSON WHO DOESN’T FIT YOUR IDEA OF BEAUTY (BASICALLY DOESN’T LOOK LIKE YOU) THEN IT MAKES YOU FEEL SUPERIOR

AND YES I’M TALKIING TO YOU SPECIFICALLY LULA PEAR-YOU SOUND LIKE YOU JUST DON’T LIKE HER-YOU POINT OUT THAT NOBODY SHOULD BRING UP THE RAPE ISSUE BECAUSE THIS IS ABOUT FASHION BUT YET IN STILL YOU TRY TO SUGGEST THAT SHE HAS LOW SELF-ESTEEM-ARENT YOU CONTRADICTING YOURSELF? THAT’S NOT THE TOPIC OF DISCUSSION-

JUST MY THOUGHT…….

IF YOU DON’T LIKE HER (GABRIELLE) JUST SAY SO-YOU DON’T HAVE TO JUSTIFY IT BY MAKING UP NEGATIVE THINGS ABOUT HER-SOME PEOPLE ARE JUST LIKE THAT THEY LOOK AT A PERSON ON THE SPOT AND DECIDE THAT THEY JUST DON’T LIKE THEM-SHALLOW BUT AT LEAST IT’S WHO YOU REALLY ARE-STOP FRONTIN

Co-Sign with BAILEY #121 its time people stop thinking that beauty only has one definiton.

when i see gabrielle union i see beauty in her radiant buttery brown complexion, her infectious smile, her class poise and grace.

why is there always at least one non black female imagining that black women are lashing out in hate because they ar intimidated by her.if anything the only other women i have every felt intimitadated by were OTHER BLACK women. but then again non black females like to think of black women as the least desirable race because it makes them sleep better at night it gives them confidence and esteem. people are quick to assume a black girl is mixed or not even black as long as she has a COMPLEXION ,HAIR TYPE or facial feauture that doesnt look like anything they consider “BLACK”. think about the fact that maybe it is not these females gene pools that have some non black genes, but perhaps yours has been “tainted” by black genes.

@Bailey
I understand and appreciate your comment… no matter how venomous or accusatory. Perhaps, I should not have mentioned her color complex… perhaps, it was contradictory… I didn’t see it that way. I just don’t think she’s stylish, at all… I will leave it there.
