Why did black ppl universally agree that Halle Berry was the GOAT black woman in the 90's-00's?

I agree with OP. Oldheads was fukkin bugging. This was the first time I observed a disconnect from the media to reality. There were badder women in my hood growing up ffs.

Never saw her as the #1 anything, she like a 8 to me tops and on god I would pass her on the streets and not blink

I feel like white boys had made the call on that sexiest woman alive crap

Halle definitely had the juice back then. But it's was mostly because she had the biggest status.

I think alot of the women posted were very attractive during that time but like some said, I didn't know half of there names, some were just actresses who always played the girl friend on insert black show.

Personally, looking back, 90s Kenya more is the prototype and the most attractive woman of the 90s. But I had no clue who she was until after the fact :yeshrug:

Wouldn't call her a light bright shes brown skinned, to her displeasure.
honestly, before the internet (Say 92-97), I didn't know she was biracial. I never heard anyone mention it back then.
She also didn't look it imo...I remember seeing Mariah Carey when she first came out in 93' and instantly knew she was biracial or something other than just black--it never crossed my mind with Halle.

Yeah halle looked black back then but she looks every bit of biracial now which is convenient timing if you know what i mean :mjpls:
