Like Fine Wine : Phylicia Rashad


Phylicia Rashad is an American award winning actress.

Long time mother figure to a whole TV generation as Claire Huxtable on the Cosby Show (making some wish they could be her child and some husbands hope she could be their wife lol). I believe, this Godess played a role that reflected her real life persona. Her cultural awareness, the way she carried herself, her charm, her smile, her natural beauty, her calm yet firm voice, the grace in her movements... ahh she's just great. A spark you just did not see in other women of her generation.

We never saw another TV mother like her.



One mold I wish was never broken!

See You When I Get There... : Brittany Murphy


What terrible news this month as we lost Brittany Murphy. 2009 has been a big hit in the celeb world, but she definetely left too soon.

Brittany Murphy was an American actress and singer.

I remember the first time I saw this gem was in Clueless. By the time I saw '8 Mile' I was hooked. I was disappointed when I saw 'Sin City' simply because she didn't have a bigger role in the movie.


Each movie I saw her in, it seemed like she owned the role. It wasn't Brittany Murphy playing such-and-such character, it was such-and-such character played by Brittany Murphy. It's only recently I was made aware that she used to voice Louanne on 'King Of The Hill' and that she once had a hit club song.

Going from blonde to brunette always looking great with an amazing smile, she made you want to see more of her. Looking like a ray of sunshine. Must be that southern hospitality hailing from Atlanta, Georgia.

Quoted saying : "Home is where my mom is."

Going to miss her, see you when I get there!

Hip-know/Thigh-zed : Serena Cuevas


Serena Cuevas is a professional dancer and business woman (director of Deseo Dance Company).

As most people, first time I saw her was in the Gatorade G2 commercial (video below), I must say... I was struck. Still fond of Serena Williams, but she is a breath of fresh air. Natural beauty with moves for days, sexy but extremely classy (take notes ladies... or dance classes lol) even while covered with sweat. Tragic story to boot in which she was involved in an accident that was supposed to keep her from following her dreams, she is also an great inspiration (see videos below).



Interview :


Oh yeah, she is already taken it seems (no, it isn't me... Damn). Keep dreamin'!

Another Actress : Rachel McAdams


Rachel McAdams is a Canadian actress.

Besides being pretty, a brunette and Canadian, the thing that attracts me the most to her is her full-on smile. First time I actually heard of her is from the whole buzz about this little movie called 'The Notebook' (which I still haven't seen, but that pretty much every girl has told me I should watch... simply because it made them cry lol).

First time I noticed her was in 'Red Eye', the first part of the movie, you just see her talking on the phone with different people and being really nice... yup, that's it. A nice smile on a nice person, that does it for me.

She is the kind of girl you present to your parents and they just fall in love with her right away. Definitely girlfriend material.

Another Actress : Lacey Chabert


Lacey Chabert is an American actress and voice actress.

Now this woman is as cutie/pretty/sexy as it gets. A combination of all three is always hard to come accross, but she's got it. First noticed her in the comedy 'Not Another Teen Movie' in which she was spoofing Jennifer Love Hewitt's role in 'Can't Hardly Wait' (Notice the ressemblance?) and later realized she was the little girl with the funny voice and crazy hair in 'Lost In Space' (who would have thought, paid off coz she still does cartoon voice-overs). She also shared screen time with another favorite of mine Leila Arcieri in 'Big Daddy Day Care' (still looking as fine!). Also saw her in 'Mean Girls'... yup she played dumb but she looked pretty sexy doing it (according to the interview posted below, she had a 4.0 average. Beat that!).

That smile, the curves, that sometimes shy look, her posture (... yeah I know...) the type of girl that would look good in just about anything and all that good stuff. Well in my books, she is certified wifey material.



Love a girl with a sense of humour!

I'm In Love With A... Singer : Corinne Bailey Rae


Corinne Bailey Rae is an English soul, R&B, jazz singer.

Besides the fact that she is simply beautiful, I think it's the softness and sweetness in her voice that attracts me to her. She seems pure and private about her business, which is a quality that seems to be losing it's worth amongst women these days or is it just that they are more in ur face with it... that's another debate.

I also love the fact that you can sometimes hear her british accent when she sings ("a look I Kan't describe") with those lips. Damn, she looks good in her lil summer dresses.

Soft lips, soft eyes, soft voice, a natural simple beauty.
