Academy Award Actors Celebrity Entertainment film Good Kill Guru Jay Hollywood Stars Lenny Kravitz Lisa Bonet Movies Pretend We're Kissing Rosario Dawson X-Men: First Class Zoe Kravitz

Why Zoe Kravitz Is One of Hollywood’s Hottest Stars

BY: GURU JAY



    Zoe Kravitz is one of Hollywood’s hottest actresses. She is one of the brightest stars in showbiz. Right now, the 29-year-old is one of the best under 30. The celebrity is making headlines for dating Karl Glusman. She could turn him into the next Leonardo DiCaprio if he’s lucky. Pop Sugar is comparing their romance to Rihanna’s love interests.
    Who wouldn’t like to date Zoe? The entertainer is so beautiful. Look at her, she is stunning. Plus, when she is not making headlines she is making major movies. Her career is in the beginning stages and she’s already done fantastic work. You can watch her Pretend We’re Kissing and Good Kill movies on Netflix. Also, she was wonderful in X-Men: First Class.
    Although she received her start in No Reservations in 2007, I feel the 2011 X-Men movie put her on the map. She shared the X-Men universe with Halle Berry. Like Halle, she is a true artist. She is in route to become the next big thing. Zoe Kravitz does whatever it takes. Moreover, Kravitz is living the Hollywood dream. I think she will win an Academy Award in due time.
    It’s amazing what she gets to do for a living. She gets to star in the biggest blockbusters and critically-acclaimed Indie films. She roleplays to perfection and shines like a diamond on the silver screen. Kravitz doesn’t make bad movies. Every script she touches turns to gold. She is a great supporting actor on par with Rosario Dawson. However, if given the opportunity she won’t disappoint as a lead actress.
    Do you follow her on SnapChat, Instagram, Facebook, and Twitter? The daughter of Lisa Bonet and Lenny Kravitz is making her parents proud. She is a Tinseltown favorite, and she’s gaining momentum. The star is steadily building her brand name and reputation.

action Binge Watching Entertainment Guru Jay Hollywood Jessica Jones Luke Cage Luke Cage Season 1 Luke Cage Season 2 Marvel Mike Colter Netflix Netflix Originals Romance Rosario Dawson TV shows

Luke Cage Is Back and Better Than Ever

BY: GURU JAY

Have you heard? Luke Cage is back and better than ever. Days ago, Netflix released season 2 of the hit Marvel series.

Check out Luke Cage! You won’t regret it. The show is the total package.

It has everything you want from action to romance. The first episode begins with an unforgettable fight scene. Plus, the ever so beautiful Rosario Dawson returns as Luke’s love interest.

I remember when Luke Cage (Mike Colter) had a recurring role on Jessica Jones. Mike was a major reason fans kept watching the TV show. I can’t imagine anybody else playing the lead character but Mike Colter. He made me want to be a bartender for a week.

Luke Cage sets the bar high. If you don’t know, he has super human strength and a bullet-proof body. He is the superhero from New York City everybody loves and loves to hate.

You see the crime fighter has made a few enemies along the way. In season 2, he tackles drug dealers from the start. He must overcome organized crime to get to the end game.

Expect season 2 to be exciting. From what I’ve seen so far, the acting is incredible. And the script is well-written.

Luke Cage goes by many names. One of those names is Power Man. The other is Carl Lucas.

Luke’s father, a preacher man, refuses to call him anything except his government name. His father gives a thrilling speech in the beginning of season 2 episode 1. His father strongly disapproves of Luke Cage’s way of life.

Still, Luke Cage is raising hell up in Harlem. He is kicking ass and taking names. Although he’s a good guy, he must worry about both sides of the law. Harlem’s hero is ready for a challenge. He may have to take on the devil. Watch Luke Cage and come see what all the fuss is about.

Michael Ealy, Rosario Dawson, and the Hollywood Dream

BY: GURU JAY

Can you picture driving down Hollywood Boulevard in a red Bentley convertible? As a celebrity, they treat you like a spoiled rotten kid. You see, big businesses give celebrities fancy toys in return for coveted endorsements.
Compared to Apple, Google, and Microsoft CEOS, celebrity perks are miniscule. However, compared to everyday midsize homeowners, celebrities are living in paradise. If you want luxury goods and services, get famous.
Now imagine getting chauffeured in your white stretch limousine at midnight. Upon arrival, you’re escorted to the VIP section of the world’s finest nightclub. Not only have you danced with Michael Ealy tonight, you posed for pictures with Rosario Dawson.
Before going back to reality, promise to realize dreams come true. At some point in their lives, Michael Ealy and Rosario Dawson dreamt of becoming movie stars. They didn’t instantly wake up and become overnight celebrities.

Dawson and Ealy paid their dues, and that’s why they’re excellent actors. Have you seen 2008’s Seven Pounds with Dawson and Ealy? I highly recommend the movie because of the brilliant casting and riveting script.
Although they’re onscreen characters didn’t interact a lot in the movie, Michael Ealy and Rosario Dawson work well together. Plus, Michael and Rosario represent diversity, which Hollywood lacks, according to the Oscars host Neil Patrick Harris. Regardless of whether this is true or not, clearly Ealy and Dawson deserve acknowledgements and accolades.
Actresses… pay close attention to Rosario Dawson’s techniques. Rosario succeeds in supporting roles because of her beauty and personality. For instance, in Marvel’s Daredevil she befittingly plays a complimentary nurse.
Now 35, Rosario Dawson is one of the best supporting actresses in her cohort. Still, would they mind letting Rosario take the lead more? Dawson is definitely capable of handling responsibility.

Furthermore, Steve Harvey Nation constituents enjoy Michael Ealy’s performance in Think Like a Man. You’ll find Ealy has an impressive filmography. Amazingly, the actor is getting better.
In a nutshell, Michael Ealy and Rosario Dawson are fulfilling the Hollywood dream.

Best Black and Latina actresses Eva Longoria Gabrielle Union Halle Berry Jennifer Lopez Jessica Alba Kerry Washington Movies Paula Patton Rosario Dawson Sanaa Lathan Sofia Vergara Zoe Saldana

19 Best Black and Latina Actresses

BY: GURU JAY

The best Black and Latina actresses have one thing in common: talent. These ladies are the crème de la crème. They all give exemplary performances every time.
I present to you the best. These are my favorite selections. At the end, tell us who’s on your list.
Best Black and Latina Actresses
Paula Patton’s portfolio is a solid body of work. Déjà vu is my favorite. Her big break came withMission: Impossible IV- Ghost Protocol. Have you seen it?
I predict Paula will win an Oscar. Does she remind you of the girl next door?  She is the lead actress in the long awaited Warcraft movie, based on the addictive video game.

Gina Torres is also a marketable fantasy actress. Who could forget about her role in Matrix and her stint on the TV show Firefly? Gina looks great!
I would let her teach me how to act any day. I’d bet her acting class wouldn’t have an empty seat. You can tell that this Cuban New Yorker loves science fiction.

Zoe Saldana is the best science fiction actress. I like her in the Star Trek franchise as well as Avatar. Sources say her performance in Guardians of the Galaxy is top notch.
Rihanna reminds me of Zoe Saldana. They both have the ‘look.’ Watch Colombiana when you get the chance.

Puerto Ricans are proud of Jennifer Lopez. She is a good representative of all Latinas. JLo has a big heart.
Check out her movie Jack starring Robin Williams. I like JLo because of her versatility. Give her a part and watch her go to work. She is building a legendary career.

Eva Mendes is underperforming. This Eva has not exceeded her limit. Give her a shot.

Who’s a better Latina actress than Eva Longoria? This Eva transcends TV. Two words: Desperate Housewives…
Longoria made Desperate Housewives a thriving success. She was the primary reason for my remote interest in the drama. Vanessa Williams helped too.

Modern Familystar Sofia Vergara gives me a similar rationale. Ed O’Neil also known as Al Bundy brings back many childhood memories. But, I watch Modern Family because of Sofia Vergara.
I’m sitting on my sofa and watching Sofia.

Roselyn Sanchez doesn’t have as big a name. Still, the Devious Maids actress is very skillful. I liked her in Miss Congeniality. She has sex appeal like Sandra Bullock.
I respect Roselyn due to her humility. She seems like a good spirited sister. She doesn’t cause trouble.

Nia Long flies under the radar. You must admire the way she conducts herself too. The Black actress earns her keep. I only have nice things to say about Nia.
She is similar in style to Halle Berry.
Let me clarify that there is only 1 Halle Berry. And, she is a legend. Halle came a long way from Cleveland.
She is the face of Revlon. It’s nice to see her diversifying income streams. She’s everywhere: in the movies, commercials and now on TV. Comment and tweet if you want to keep Extant on the air!

Do you like Sanaa Lathan? Have you seen Love and Basketball? If you’re making a Romance, audition Sanaa!

Another good Sanaa movie is Brown Sugar. She stars alongside Taye Diggs. By the way, Magic Johnson helped finance this film. Speaking of finances, Sanaa stays at the bank. She deposits pay stubs as her hobby.

When Taraji P. Henson comes to mind, you think The Curious Case of Benjamin Button. Also, Taraji posed semi-nude for PETA. Even if you don’t support the cause, you admire passionate people.
Taking bold political stances is a big risk in Hollywood.

Rosario Dawson is the lead actress in Fire With FireI watched Fire With Fire on demand. And, this is an absolute must-see movie. It’s rated R so in the words of Dave Chappelle: “you’d better not bring your kids.”
As always, Rosario shines in the film. Oh yeah, Bruce Willis is not bad either. But, Dawson demonstrates her high demand. She shows why her stock price is at 100 points.
Rosario is a great supporting actor. I believe she is the best supporting actress out there. And, her best days are ahead. She is still developing her talent as a lead.

Kerry Washington is best known for her work on ABC’s Scandal. But before her prime time TV domination, she was a successful movie actress. This girl is limitless like Scarlett Johansson in the number 1 movie Lucy.
I have seen Kerry mature over the years. I still remember her first film Our Song. From then to now, you see a tremendous progression.
Kerry easily makes my top five. She embodies the essence of performing arts.

Of course, the thespian Cameron Diaz is number 10. In fact, her last name means ‘ten’ in Spanish. The blonde Latina is the best in her niche.
As far as romantic comedies, Cameron is second to none. Boy can Cameron dance. Who saw Sex Tape?

Jessica Alba owns the night as much as Eva Mendes. Alba is a younger Cameron Diaz. In her own right, Jessica has established herself as a household name.
Jessica gives a good performance in Good Luck Chuck. Alba should stick to romantic-comedies. To paraphrase a plumber: “If it ain’t broke, I’m not fixing it.”

Gabrielle Union has all of Hollywood talking. First of all, she looks like a model. And, she struts her stuff with the best of them. I’m sure she can give Candice Swanepoel some pointers.
Why is Gabrielle Union undervalued? I want to see her in more movies. The Omaha sweetie is ‘like a diamond treated like glass.’

Salma Hayek inspires every Latina. She is an older actress who paid her dues. She’s put skin in the game. The lady loves cinema.


Finally, keep an eye on Michelle Rodriguez. She’s destined for superstardom. I rank Rodriguez as the #1 Latina action actress.

You decide. Who are the best Black and Latina actresses?
