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

[get these nets]

game was over after this

It's because Halle was the baddest with the biggest profile.
Only other chicks that were on that level or near it during the 90's -early 00's was Janet Jackson. After that, in no particular order, you prolly got Tyra, Toni, Nia, Jada, and Vivica Fox to make up most of the top ten. Some of the randoms that nikkas are naming just weren't big enough stars to cross over and be the universal standard for most nikkas.

This.

I mean this really wasn't hard if you were conscious in the 90s.

Halle had the looks and status. Janet Jackson is the only other person you put in that conversation...

Sallie Richardson, Lela Rochon, and Kenya Moore were finer, but didn't have the resume.

Whitney and Mariah might have had the status, but didn't have the same level of unanimous recognition for beauty.

shyt hurts breh… she was too fine.

 

[AllHolosEve]

Well Halle was always bad but outside of Hollywood/media/internet I've rarely if ever heard her referred to as some unchallenged goat.

She might've been more famous/popular than most but she wasn't alone as far as straight sex appeal went.

Tyra Banks was my shyt in the 90s, but Halle was goat level from about 95 and on. Funny that Robin Givens was "the fine one" in Boomerang

Man I'd take Halle Berry today over any of the BBW igthots the coli thirsts over

 

[White City Black]

I got it, but yea she was definitely put on a pedestal. Jada Pinkett was my personal preference.

Yooo...when them tiddles first came out in Swordfish...Halle went a minute without really doing nudity so in today’s climate that shyt would “break the internet.”

 

[BelowTheMasonDixon]

none of them had anywhere near the profile Halle did, Halle was a legit star, which worked in her favor


Lotta the chicks being posted in here the average nikkas wouldn't even know by name

Good Lord Chenoa Maxwell was gorgeous and completely slept on

Jason's lyric jada and low down dirt shame jada is a extremely close second

 

[Geek Nasty]

Overrated since Day 1.....and one of the most horrible actresses of our time.....

I don't get people slamming her acting skills. She's no worse than Julia Roberts, Jennifer Lawrence, Sandra Bullock, Kate Beckinsale or any of the "a-list" white actresses out there getting $10 million a movie

 

[Benefited]

that thick ankled elf and ever fukked with prime Halle.

They were both and this video and Mya outshined her

 

[ultraflexed]

She was bad but she is a head case ...you’d be surprised how many “bad bytches" are head cases....i read about her upbringing and it seems she got real daddy issues and her pops used to beat her moms so that could be the reasoning behind it i don't know...but she was great to look at


but my 90's queen will forever be Sade

You do know sade's prime was in the 80's right..

 

[ultraflexed]

Yeah, Halle was definitely the baddest

Tyra second

Honourable mention Nia Long and Stacey Dash

I forgot about Sali Richardson

She had the best potential

Nia Long was one of the coldest....


But do you nikkas even REMEMBER prime Halle

Halle was so fine that even now at 50 she looks better than most 20-30 year olds... then y’all dare to make this thread without a pic

Real tawk, Halle didn’t fall off until she started bedwenching and it still wasn’t that bad of a fall

1992-95 halle is goat
Runner up
Lisa raye "playas club"
1993-96-stacy dash
1994- 96 jada pinkett
1995-sally richardson
1993-janet jackson


That's the cut off

halle face was beautiful but no one beat maia Campbell face in her prime

Met her in person in 2002 probably the most disappointing experiences I've ever had...bit#h was a straight crackhead....yes even then
