Alicia a bad capeworthy bitch. Make no mistake...
I don't think she masculine, its that NY/n.east coast vibe where folks come off as hard or Manly. I got regrets turning down this girl from NY in college cause she was Manish. Decades later she still a bad bitch.
Bitch was bad bad. I remember she was on a talk show (can't remember which one) and she was talking about how she was abused and had a pimp or some shit. I walked in from class and she was on there, I was like "that's Crown Princess!!!" My gal at the time was like who the fuck? Anyway I always thought she favored Alicia Keys as well...
You and L.K.M.B.G.F are definitely on point about them favoring each other. I went to High school with 3 sets of female twins and although it was hard to tell the difference between them physically, you would notice the nuance when it came to their personalities. Alicia seems like the one that would make you wait and take you to church with her, Princess looks like that type that would take you to church and let you do her in the "PEW"on the first date!
Yeah, it has nothing to do with her being rich or famous or her actual looks, its ONLY HER SKIN TONE. Riiight.
You guys with this complexion complex don't realize how y'all sound sometimes.
Here is an average-looking light-skinned chick:
and another one:
and just so we're clear:
These chicks don't have the looks to be pop stars.
There are a lot of darker-skinned chicks who don't look like Jessica White or Tika Sumpter but if somebody says something to the effect of "she looks like the average dark-skinned sista", fools will flip the fuck out as if all dark-skinned women are created equal. They ARE NOT. Neither are all light-skinned chicks.
I stand by my statement last year.
I'm not into Alicia Keys like that but I wouldn't call her average-looking because that would be a lie.
What makes a chick average-looking? The lack of ability to look pretty. That's why they are average.
If a chick can look pretty, then she's above average-looking.
The science says that extra melanin makes women birthday-resistant. Since Alicia ain't got but so much melanin, she is wisely "pre-treating" her male fans by going makeup-free so we have a different standard of comparison as she ages. Smart move (and I don't like tons of makeup on women anyhow!).
