A post to honor the Iconic/Influential: Denise Huxtable

Before Moesha, Carrie Bradshaw, Raven Baxter, Samantha Jones, Tony Childs, Blair Waldorf, Olivia Pope & so many more, Denise Huxtable set a lot of trends and broke fashion boundaries in the 80s. Providing decades of Inspiration and recreations. Denise made fashion fun, daring, exciting, adding a whole new layer to who she was as a character. Denise quickly became a fan favorite and soon after a pop culture icon.

Inspired by Lisa Bonet’s own eccentric and outlandish fashion sense, Denise's personal style was largely embraced by the public, and she is widely considered to be a style icon.

A writer of The Guardian credits Denise Huxtable with introducing television audiences to boho-chic 30 years before it became a mainstream fashion trend.

Several publications have ranked Denise among the best-dressed characters on television, including Elle, Glamour, Essence, StyleCaster, Vibe, and Harper's Bazaar.

In 2012, clothing company Urban Outfitters created a clothing line inspired by Denise entitled "A Different World" describing it as "a nod to the coolest older sister ever"

She is eternally on the mood board for many creatives. This kind of influence is unprecedented, unmatched and cannot be bought or recreated. Although I’m sure Lisa Bonét doesn’t have many great memories of those days, I hope she knows how much she has inspired so many people on our journeys to self discovery. She has absolutely inspired me since childhood and continues to ♥️

Ppl keep saying “if Denise stayed on a different world i would’ve gotten cancelled if Denise stayed on a different world i would’ve hated it” you don’t know that because Debbie Allen had plans for Lisa bonet and Denise just because you didn’t know that doesn’t mean it wouldn’t work out

Malcolm-Jamal Warner has died at 54, PEOPLE confirms

He was best known for playing Bill Cosby's son on The Cosby Show.

Malcolm-Jamal Warner has died. He was 54.

The actor was in Costa Rica on a family vacation and drowned while swimming, a source confirms to PEOPLE.

A rep for Warner did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

Warner's career began with his role as Theo Huxtable on The Cosby Show.

The actor played the only son of Bill Cosby's character, Heathcliff Huxtable, in the sitcom from 1984 to 1992.

In 2023, Warner told PEOPLE of the show, "I know I can speak for all the cast when I say The Cosby Show is something that we are all still very proud of."

"We share a unique experience that keeps us lovingly bonded no matter how much time goes between seeing or hearing from each other."

Warner did, of course, acknowledge how the show's legacy had changed given the allegations made against Cosby, 88, who was convicted of sexual assault in 2018 but later had the charge overturned in 2021, only for five more women to accuse him of sexual assault.

"Regardless of how some people may feel about the show now, I'm still proud of the legacy and having been a part of such an iconic show that had such a profound impact on — first and foremost, Black culture — but also American culture," Warner said.

Following The Cosby Show, Warner went on to star in several other successful TV shows and movies.

He and Eddie Griffin led the sitcom Malcolm & Eddie from 1996 to 2000, and Warner was also well known for his role as Alex Reed on Reed Between the Lines, which he starred in alongside Tracee Ellis Ross from 2011 to 2015.

More recently, Warner had starred in Major Crimes as Chuck Cooper, as Julius Rowe in Suits and as AJ Austin in The Resident.

9-1-1 and Alert: Missing Persons Unit were his most recent credits.

His latest venture was a podcast, Not All Hood, that he launched with two others as a means of breaking down barriers to mental health in the Black community.

Last June, he launched the podcast with cohosts Weusi Baraka and Candace Kelley, and he told PEOPLE it was a space where he could be his “most vulnerable.”

“It's been an interesting experience for me, because it's a place where I feel safe enough to be able to be as vulnerable as I allow myself to be,” he said.

“When we talk about the Black community, we tend to speak of it as a monolith when the reality is there are so many different facets of the Black community, and we wanted to have a space where we can really explore, discuss, and acknowledge all of those different aspects," he said at the time.

Warner is survived by a wife and daughter, whose identities he opted to keep private.

Investigação aponta erro dos pilotos no maior desastre aéreo da história da Coreia do Sul

Investigação aponta erro dos pilotos no maior desastre aéreo da história da Coreia do Sul

Malcolm-Jamal Warner, ator que marcou gerações como Theo Huxtable na icónica série “The Cosby Show”, morreu aos 54 anos, vítima de um afogamento acidental na Costa Rica.

O trágico incidente ocorreu no domingo, enquanto Warner nadava na Playa Cocles, província de Limón. Segundo o Departamento Judiciário de Investigação da Costa Rica, o ator foi arrastado por uma forte corrente oceânica. Apesar de ter sido retirado da água por populares, os socorristas da Cruz Vermelha confirmaram que já não apresentava sinais vitais. O corpo foi encaminhado para a morgue local.

Warner ganhou fama internacional nos anos 80 ao interpretar Theo, o filho adolescente de Cliff Huxtable (Bill Cosby), na sitcom da NBC que se tornou uma das mais populares da história da televisão americana. O ator participou em todos os 197 episódios da série, exibida entre 1984 e 1992, e chegou a ser nomeado para um Emmy em 1986, na categoria de Melhor Ator Coadjuvante em Comédia.

Ícone da cultura pop, Theo Huxtable tornou-se um símbolo de juventude negra inteligente, divertida e sonhadora. Um dos momentos mais lembrados é o episódio em que tenta esconder dos pais um brinco recém-perfurado ou a famosa camisa “Gordon Gartrell”, costurada pela sua irmã Denise — um detalhe que virou meme e referência até hoje.

Após o fim de “The Cosby Show”, Warner manteve uma carreira sólida na televisão. Coestrelou com Eddie Griffin a sitcom “Malcolm & Eddie” (1996–2000), teve papel de destaque na série “Read Between The Lines”, com Tracee Ellis Ross, e participou em produções como “American Crime Story” e “The Resident”, da Fox.

Para além da atuação, Malcolm-Jamal Warner também era poeta e músico. Venceu um Grammy na categoria de Melhor Performance Tradicional de R&B e foi nomeado para Melhor Álbum de Poesia Falada por “Hiding in Plain View”.

Apesar de reservado sobre a vida pessoal, sabe-se que era casado e tinha uma filha. Os nomes da família não foram divulgados, e os representantes do ator ainda não comentaram oficialmente o falecimento.

Warner reconheceu publicamente, em 2015, o impacto das acusações de agressão sexual contra Bill Cosby no legado da série. “O facto de já não termos os Huxtables como referência entristece-me. Em poucas gerações, serão vistos apenas como um conto de fadas”, disse na época.

A morte de Malcolm-Jamal Warner deixa um vazio profundo na cultura televisiva e entre os fãs que cresceram com o seu carisma e talento.
