Like when you think 90's you think Nia? Who would be that black actress to you in the 2010's?

Lol is Nia Long iconic for real or is she just OD fine? She's not more iconic than Angela Bassett or Halle Berry
Yeah, those 2 would go over her. But she's def iconic with her roles on Fresh Prince, Friday, Boyz, Best Man. I can't leave her off. Friday is one of the movies that will stand the test of time as well.

Nia pretty much plays the same person in every role.

:hubie:

She has the looks and the recognizability, but when I think of great actresses, I think of a range, and great acting ability.

Nina Simone foolishness aside:mjlol: ...Zoe Saldana should be in the running.
She's been in a leading role in the two biggest movies of all time

Got her own action flick.
Pirates of the Caribbean
Has flicks with Bernie Mac, Idris Elba, Chris Rock, Martin...

She’s iconic in the Black community, kinda in the same way Morris Chestnut is.
