There’s no denying the beauty and brilliance of the Black woman. We’d be remiss if we didn’t express just how much we love seeing Black women continue to be the personification of the phrase “Black don’t crack” with each passing year. So it’s in that spirit of appreciation that we felt it fitting to take a leisurely stroll to look at a handful of our favorite ‘90s bombshells — then and now — to reminisce and bask in the timeless beauty.
When we look up the phrase “aging like fine wine” in the dictionary, there’s no doubt a photo of Sanaa Lathan sitting right there. And if there’s not, there should be!
We see why Darius Lovehall was trying to become the funk in Nia Long’s right thigh because...wow! She truly just gets more flawless with time!
Blame it on her beautiful smile and those brown, honey-butter eyes, Regina BEEN King, OK? May her reign last forever!
When it comes to fine women who are arguably funnier than a lot of stand up comedians, you better make sure Regina Hall is in that conversation. (And at the top of the list.)
When Kelis said her milkshake brought all the boys to the yard, we think she forgot to mention that it held the fountain of youth inside of it, too. Her beauty is unmatched.
While being the daughter of Diana Ross comes with its own glamorous reputation, Tracee Ellis Ross has been stepping on necks and dazzling folks with her gorgeousness on her own.
Keeping on the “Girlfriends” tip, we’re gonna need Jill Marie Jones to tell us her skin routine and what her signature lip combo is ASAP. We may not be able to look as fine as her but dammit, we’re gonna try!
There’s a reason why Kenya Moore won Miss USA all those years ago—just look at her! She’s “gone with the wind fabulous,” keep twirling on’em!
If you would’ve made us bet that Salli Richardson would still be as fine today as she was back then—we probably would’ve bet our entire life savings. Do you see her face? 10/10, no notes.
Folks may have a lot to say about Jada Pinkett-Smith but what they can’t say is that she’s never served major face and sexy swag. She has an aura that’s truly like no other and we’re here for it!
Oscars and Emmys aside, there’s a reason why she’s called Angela “Been Bad” Bassett. (Did we just make that up? Yes. But it’s hella fitting because look at that perfection that is her face. We love you, Auntie!)
The list of reasons why Halle Berry will always be fine no matter the decade... is about as long as the list of songs that mention her. Shall we count the gorgeous ways?
Despite what folks may have said about her earlier this year, make no mistake: Vivica A. Fox is still that girl. Don’t get it twisted!
Remember divas: Sheryl Lee Ralph was an original Dreamgirl, so that means she’s got an ethereal beauty and elegance that’ll always stand the test of time.
Much like Regina Hall, in addition to Campbell’s good looks, her ability to make people laugh just turns up her sexy factor 1,000 notches.
