Wow, how old is that picture? Because Thandie doesn't look like a fucking holocaust victim there. She looks.. pretty.

I don't get it -- you would enjoy lusting after her more if you thought you were related?

Good point, Joe.

That's exactly what I thought, Joe. But this is Mudede, so who the hell knows what he's thinking.

Whatever she is, she's hot.

This is a very sexy photo of Thandie Newton; I never seen her photographed this way before. You also had a particularly sexy photo posted of Eva Mendes the other day. Perhaps you have some sort of database of extra-provocative poses of female actors?

Also, she's not really a Hollywood actress, despite doing one major Hollywood film. According to the IMDB, "She...moved to Los Angeles to pursue acting and her then-boyfriend. However, her British accent limited the amount of work she was getting, and she returned to Britain, where she went to Cambridge University to study, eventually receiving a degree in anthropology."

Her 1991 movie, Flirting, is in my Top 5 of all time.

i may not know what chuck is thinking, but i know what he's thinking with.

Thandie is one of the most striking actresses out there....I've had a crush on her ever since I stumbled onto "The truth about Charlie" while on a trans-continental flight. Sometimes it's worth it to watch the movie...that really is a great photo of her.

Yes, it's called the interwebs.

I know, I know...I was being polite. I'm just seeing an objectification trend is all.

I'll provide a photo just to balance it out:

Charles, you should do a sequel to that bestiality movie. With your Shona connection, you might be able to get Thandie a starring role!

weird:
"Also, she's not really a Hollywood actress, despite doing one major Hollywood film."

Yes, she plays a Ugandan in that low budget indie Aussie film with Nicole Kidman, but she was also in Mission Impossible, Interview with the Vamp, and a bunch of other Hollywood type flicks, what in the hell are you talking about?

Mudede is keeping it real. But when it comes down to it- is all about Shakira and Beyonce.

I dont know Charles, I think she might be from Mugabe's tribe, I think Mugabe is a Shona speaking cat, though Im not sure. She can only be one of these: Korekore, Zeseru, Manyika, Ndau, and Karanga. Good luck Charles!

I remember her from her Aussie film days, back when she and a certain Moulin Rouge actress were nobody. She was sexy then. She still is.

Cher comes to mind as one, but there must be two dozen American females in show business who supposedly are directly descended from a "full-blooded Cherokee princess." The ancestral Cherokee princess is always full-blooded (instead of say, half Jewish princess), and she's always Cherokee, not some less cool tribe like Duwamish or Ute.

Okay, I take it back. I forgot about Interview with a Vampire and I just discovered she's in Norbit. Norbit! Sheesh.

I also agree with you on Shakira and Beyonce. They're stunning and wonderful.

I thought of the Cherokee Princess thing as well. The parallel here being there actually really isn't such a thing as a "Cherokee Princess", at least not in the way we think.

Interesting stuff if you have the time.

Thandie was my girlfriend until I found out she was in the fucked up Norbit. Is she desperate or stupid?

#17 Dougsf -

Thanks for the link. I didn't know that lots of people outside of show business also claim to have the never-existed Cherokee Princess as a direct ancestor.

An important vote this past weekend: http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2007/03/04/ap/national/mainD8NLC5EO0.shtml

"The Cherokee people exercised the most basic democratic right, the right to vote," tribal Principal Chief Chad Smith said. "Their voice is clear as to who should be citizens of the Cherokee Nation. No one else has the right to make that determination.'

I'm sure the slaves were thrilled at being told they weren't Native Americans. Just fourth-class citizens. That's what happened in that vote, TB.

Yer a sad unattractive perv Mr. M.--I guess jacking off to magazine ladies keeps you from hassling live women.
