um is this appropriate for this particular forum? M'sharak is likely to close this thread.

Zoey is cool but I wish she put on more weight. she is very pretty but a bit too skinny for me.Nichelle Nichols had the body that fitted the character of Uhura better.

Back in the day they would have said Nichelle had a voluptuous body. Basically a body that is just right proportionally and attractive to the opposite sex.

Warning for doing an only slightly-disguised version of the "Zoe is too thin" post which drew a warning, this in spite of the admonition I had already posted in the thread. Comments to PM.

Sharing this for Zoe Saldana husband appreciation...

Guys Choice Awards presenter Zoe Saldana reveals she tried to talk husband Marco Perego out of taking her last name

'I tried to talk him out of it,' Zoe confessed of the name change in an interview for In Style magazine's July 2015 cover story.
'If you use my name, you're going to be emasculated by your community of artists, by your Latin community of men, by the world,' she recounted telling her husband.
'But Marco looks up at me and says: Ah Zoe, I don't give a s**t.'

Her husband changed his last name to Saldana when they got married? That's actually kind of interesting, and something I'm kind of surprised we don't hear more about these days. You'd think in a society where it's common for women keep their maiden names after marrying, or with same-sex marriages working out for themselves how they want to handle the last names (as there is no historic precedent for that) you'd think there'd be more men taking their wives names than seems to be the case.

I like that idea. It's something I would do if I got married. I'd take her last name

John Lennon and other famous guys did the same thing.

for some cultures keeping one last's name is important, I think it's like that for latin ones too or some of them. It's cute and considerate for him to keep her last name and also make it possible for their twin boys to inherit their mother's name too.
Zoe only has sisters so her name would die with her and I think she cares about her last name all the more after her father died when she was little.


they seem to be a cool sweet couple

Fathers, sons, brothers, men everywhere: Your legacy will not perish if you take your partner's surname, or she keeps hers. I’ve been made aware that a comment I made regarding my marriage has garnered some attention. I felt proud that my husband decided to take my last name as his own... and I his. I shared my hesitation with him when he told me about his decision, not only did he say, “I don’t give a shhheeeetttt!!” (with a very strong Italian accent!!) he also asked me, “Why not? What are you so afraid of?" And it made me wonder... What am I so afraid of?​

Why is it so surprising, shocking- eventful that a man would take his wife's surname? Women have never been asked if its ok for them to give up their names — why doesn’t that make the news?
Men, you will not cease to exist by taking your partner’s surname. On the contrary — you’ll be remembered as a man who stood by change. I know our sons will respect and admire their father more because their father lead by example.
Gentlemen, I implore you to think outside the box- remove the box altogether. Let’s redefine masculinity. A real “man” leads along side his partner. A real man accepts his mortality. A real man acknowledges that nothing can be done alone.
I hope that the “buzz” behind this topic isn’t just for gossip — but an inspiration for us all to look within and see what is truly important.
Let’s start by letting go of some of the limitations we have inherited from the past, and forge a new path moving forward.
With Love,
Zoe and Marco

On a lighter note. here's Zoe's lipsyncing Pocahontas in her car. Guess she's not had to go to Vancouver yet!
