#There's only 3 celebs that right now I'm a ride or die for and I think yall can guess 2 quite easily

Should I be surprised you're defending your basic white man to all hell? Nah. Anyone who solely stans white celebrities will excuse anything they do 🤣

And please do tell me where am I defending him when I've done multiple posts saying how shitty what he did was, like can you not read. And I already know you are a Z fan with that "only being a stan of white celebs" do you not get tired or idk embarrassed. If you saw some of the stuff I'm getting now THAT is defending him

So what is Lenora Crichlow doing now because I can't find any updates on her projects? Someone mentioned that she comes from an acting family and usually it means that her parents were actors but that's not true. Her father was an activist and little is known about her mother. The fact remains that Lenora did get lead roles in the UK and when she came to the US, she only acted in supporting roles. The pecking order in Hollywood is clear and your comments about Lily James are true.

Honestly? I don't know, because now I have to check her IMDB to know what she's doing whereas 10 years ago she was always on telly. Yes the stuff she's still doing isn't insignficant (Avenue 5) but it's not leading lady any more

It's so bizarre watching random white British actors get free rides to the Hollywood Top 100 based on looks or rich people networking when British POC actors on the same or even higher career rungs never get handed those opportunities and are allowed to peak after single breakout hit. Obviously there are exceptions, but people still cite Parminder Nagra as the infamous example case 20 years later for a freaking reason. If it hadn't been for Star Wars cementing him on the international map forever, I worry that the same would have happened to John Boyega and 10 years on we'd all have been going 'Ah, you remember that kid from Attack the Block... he was so talented...'

For me Lenora's case particularly stings because she's one of the actresses I admired most as a tween (along with Yasmin Paige) and during that late 00s early 10s period she was a mainstay. So it was so frustrating watching her career die down while various less famous co-stars with much shorter resumes leap frogged right over her. No shade to Aiden Turner he's fantastic. Lily James all shade absolutely deserved lmao (although in her defence I do think she has improved over the years.)

Thanks for tipping me in to Frank Crichlow's activist career, the fact that he's one of the Mangrove 9 is actually fucking sick! Such an iconic period in British history!! I've had Mangrove on my TBW list since it came out so I will definitely prioritise that now.

I hope @griffin-groupie is right about Lenora being extremely picky with her roles but honestly it's very clear that she's not been on the big-leagues radar for about a decade now, and I doubt she has oodles of choice given that her projects aren't very frequent. I know celebrity status is not what every actor wants, but I'm still rooting for her to have a later career stage glow-up to USA celeb status like David Harewood or Adjoa Andoh. She deserves it!

Thanks for the ask nonny! <3
