I want to know '"How Black People Look"? First , I am African American like I have stated many of times. My color is the same as your Angela Bassette , Vanessa Bell Calloway. Now look even though my color is similar to theirs , my facial characteristics differ. My nose is smaller than Russell Simmions and my lips are maybe the same size .
I have seen many Asians with fuller lips with very dark skin and a broader nose than many Black People. For the record, I have seen Kimmora Lee on television. Kimmora lips are the same size as my mother's lips. I mean they are very Big ,yet if you see Kimmora in photos her lips look much smaller.
Another thing, she looks much bigger in live televsion than she does in photographs. Russell and his wife were on the movie" Brown Sugar". Go back and look at theparty scene in the movie.
Lastly, Kimmora does not have straight hair either . Her hairstylists who is African American straightensher hair.By the way I am just trying to make a point , I know there are Black Africans with straight hair ,but she has Black American ancestry that would most likely give her curly or wavy hair textures.

Without knowing it you kind of back up their justifications for going outside the race.
I never hear any of these playa hating black women say - I would have dated him when he was poorand in the ghetto.

TO BROWN*SKIN,
U wrote: It really vex me when I see successful black men like Russell Simmons and the like go and marry someone outside their race. What wrong with us black women? confused3Are we not a desirable? I wonder what the Russell Simmons of the world thought about themselves growing up in the ghetto. Maybe all the time they secretly wished that they were white. It is a damn shame.
I do not like to turn on the tele or read the paper and see a successful brother with another race. :X

Does it really vex you when successful black women like Naomi Campbell, Aisha Tyler, Tina Turner and countless others, marry outside their race. Whats wrong with us Black men? Are we not a desirable? I wonder what the Naomi Campbell, Tina Turner etc etc, of the world thought about themselves growing up in the ghetto. Maybe all the time they secretly wished that they were white. It is a damn shame.
I do not like to turn on the tele or read the paper and see a successful sister with another race. :X

Dennis Rodman said the same thing on Oprah Winfrey show that when he was poverty stricken in the Ghetto, they (black women in his neighbourhood)treated him like a cow dung calling him ugly and broke ass nigg****er. However when he signed a multi-million dollar contract with an NBA basketball outfit prior to joining Chicago Bulls, they started all of a sudden to treat him like a "GOD", asking him often if he still recognise them and that they fancied him.
Would any black woman had given the deceased NOTORIOUS B.I.G (as ugly as ever)the time of day if he asked them out when he was a poverty stricken drug dealer? Well...Faith Evans would not mind dating/marrying him being ugly and richsimultaneously. Life is a stage so they say and we human beings are the actors.

I dont see what the big deal is at all, the woman is half black and half Japanese, he loves her, she loves him, and??
Whyall of a sudden is this a 'different' race, but when people are talking about mixed race people (black and white) they are saying we should see them as black???
Their children a 3/4 black 1/4 japanese.
She is not an airhead, materialistic yes, but still does her own things and is successful in it. BTW - she is not that skinny anymore, she has put on quite a bit of weight and looks much better than the pictures shown.
He's happy and her colour alone cannot do that for him. I dont think if he was broke anyone would care.
p.s. Faith married Biggie when he was just out, i dont think it was a money thing as he would not have had that much at that time.
Peace~

Biggie was supposedly a ladies man before he became famous. Thats what his babymother and Faith and his mother all say. His daughter was two when his 1st album came out and he had been involved with that woman for years, she said she always had to chase women away...

But that is how it is sometimes, there are a lot of guys that may not be seen as attractive but can always get women because of their confidence / personality.
You know what? Biggie was not even ugly, it was because he was big it made him appear ugly, in some of his younger photos he was cute, and so are his children and they look like him.
PEace~
