G.I.F.T.: The Black Women In Hollywood We Love

Hey Kingdom,

G.I.F.T. loves black women in hollywood who are about more than just being fabulous.  Not only have these women expressed their faith in Jesus Christ in their own ways publicly, they are successful and continue to climb the ladder of progress.  No one is perfect enough to be a role model, especially in the harsh and challenging world of entertainment. But, we do appreciate the women in Hollywood whose successes have signified more than the acquisition of money and fame.

Check out G.I.F.T.'s fave' Black Women in Hollywood:

# 1 Angela Bassett:

"Loving God is like me being black. I just am. [No one says] 'You know what? I'm gonna be blacker today!' It's my culture. It's not something I put on or take off or show more. You just communicate that in the way you live your life." -Angela Bassett

We Love Angela Bassett!

# 2 Tia and Tamera Mowry:

And Tamera is now engaged! Check out the bling ;-)

#3 Anika Noni Rose:

This actress isn't quite the newcomer, but she has greatly increased in popularity since her role in the movie Dreamgirls and her staring role as Princess Tiana in the Disney film The Princess and the Frog where she became the first-ever black princess in a Disney fairytale. Nice!

How gorgeous is she!!! Ughhh...stop it! ;-)

#4 Kimberly Elise

We Love, love love Ms. Kimberly Elise! Seriously.  Gorgeous, talented and gracious in demeanor, you may have seen her as the staring role in Diary of a Mad Black Woman, For Colored Girls and other feature films.

There you have it! We have a few more to come, so stay tuned! Can you think of anyone we missed this time?

We love these great black women in Hollywood who are holding it down. There was a time in history when black women played only the roles of maids, servants, or dancing and jiving night club singers. Look how far we've come.

Remember: All things are possible to them that believe :-)

XoXo,

G.I.F.T.
