6)Vanessa Bell Callaway
7) Jill Scott
8) MARY MARY

ME!

Ananda Lewis

Toni Braxton

Whitney

Mariah

Nia Long

Halle Berry

Iman

Now this is something I can participate in.

In no particular order:

Nia Long
Sanaa Lathan
Gabrielle Union
Kelis
Beyonce (Yeah I said it. WHAT)
Lisa Nicole Carson (She just oozes sex appeal)
Stacey Dash
Claudette Ortiz (from group City High) <---not black but still DOPE.

TLC - all of them are beautiful

Beyonce- That girl is bad!

Aaliyah(RIP)

Vivica Fox

Vanessa L. Williams

Jennifer Lopez- Not black but she is in the minority.

I suspect that J-Lo.'s got a bit of African in her. Remember, Puerto Rico also had a history with Africans, as did many Caribbean areas.

Re: Beautiful Black Women
 

Both Halle Berry and Kenya Moore have been cosmetically altered... Halle both in the face and bosom (sp.) and definitely Kenya in the bosom...

Most women in the "industry" face that fact. And all ethnic groups participate... It is suspected that Lena Horne has had some touch up. But it doesn't neglect the fact that all my sistahs of Afrikan descent are beautiful inside and out!!! :)

On that note, the ladies that I consider most amazingly beautiful!

MY MIMMY!!! :D :) :rolleyes: OF COURSE!!!

I also consider my Grandmother awesome, too.

But my great grandmother who is gone now was extremely beautiful, where if she were alive today, she would blast Halle Berry AND Lena Horne waaaayyyyy out... But that was a different day and time, unfortunately...

Re: Her face?
 

See, that's why I had a problem with this thread, we do not know if anyone has had any alterations or not (well some, you can take a look at, get magazines of before and after, etc.). Therefore, expressing who is (in everyone's opinion) a beautiful black woman is more appropriate, than a BBW who has not had cosmetic surgery.

That's just like asking who is your favorite non-gay/non-lesbian celebrity? wth?

So, some of the opinions expressed are not valid, rather the original question is not (the original question asked for those who had not had cosmetic surgery), because many on these lists have had cosmetic surgery.

I guess I'm studying too much analytical and deductive reasoning. :confused: I'm not trying to rain on the thread, just raising my moderator pink and green flags.

It was totally meant as a pun on Janet Jackson however I didn't realize that Halle or Kenya had surgery...who knew
So let's rephrase the question ....who are the 5 most beautiful women black or white ,asian or mongoloid?

Gabrielle Union
Jill Scott
Vaness Williams
Halle Berry
Nia Long
Jada Pinkett
