(Anonymous) 2015-04-05 11:23 pm (UTC)(link)They are all gorgeous ladies. Women come in all shapes and sizes and comparing apples to oranges is stupid.
"Looks aren't everything. "
Really? You seem to be obsessed about the looks and even though Zoe clearly looks more similar to Nichelle in the face, you deem Lupita more similar only for the size of her hips.
Can't say you fit with the cliché completely, though, since you don't seem to include their breasts size in your math. At least.

(Anonymous) 2015-04-05 11:30 pm (UTC)(link)I didn't realize that googling "name waist hip" now constituted obsession.
Mostly, though, I did it because I took issue with the fact that you claimed Lupita is not curvy. Which, I mean, have you SEEN her? Just needed the math to back me up.
Also "Zoe clearly looks more similar to Nichelle in the face" is just your opinion. I think Lupita looks more like her.
Plus, you seem to be ignoring EVERY. OTHER. PART of my posts -- namely, how I mentioned that the warmth and charisma Nichelle and Lupita share is one reason I'd prefer Lupita as Uhura. Not to mention how they carry themselves. Their poise.
But, no, let's instead call me obsessed for taking five seconds to google some statistics.
Also, if I'm obsessed about looks, what does that say about Zoe? Who splashed her weight on the cover of Allure?
no subject
(Anonymous) 2015-04-06 12:05 am (UTC)(link)I never did such a thing. I said that both she and Zoe don't have the same curves Nichelle had, BECAUSE you said Lupita looks like her body type vise.
Of course you take it as me saying that Lupita has no curves which is not surprising because it doesn't seem to even compute to you that slim women can have curves too.
"Plus, you seem to be ignoring EVERY. OTHER. PART of my posts -- namely, how I mentioned that the warmth and charisma Nichelle and Lupita share is one reason I'd prefer Lupita as Uhura. Not to mention how they carry themselves. Their poise."
I'm not ignoring, just not going to dispute your personal opinion on that unless you say it's a fact. In that case, I will tell you that it obviously is not because both Nichelle Nichols and me think that Zoe has these qualities and makes a great Uhura.
no subject
(Anonymous) 2015-04-06 12:09 am (UTC)(link)And you're wrong. Lupita DOES have the same curves as Nichelle. They're the same height with the same measurements (although Lupita is ONE inch bigger at the waist).
So...yeah...I'm gonna take issue with you completely ignoring math and claiming that Lupita has the same slim body type as Zoe. She doesn't. She's MUCH MUCH closer to Nichelle. And that's not a matter of opinion -- it's a matter of ratios.

(..)

I'm not sure what's your point here, but actually no they don't have the same curves. If breasts still count as curves too then I hate nitpicking but Lupita is an AA cup while Nichelle must be at least a C, if not a D. That alone ruins your 'ratio' calculations.
no subject
(Anonymous) 2015-04-06 12:43 am (UTC)(link)But you're right that I didn't consider that, I was thinking more about how Nichelle's a very classic hourglass figure in regards to ratios.
no subject
(Anonymous) 2015-04-06 01:03 am (UTC)(link)Lupita has a pear shape figure (jlo, shakira )
Zoe (b cup) has a hourglass figure in a very slim body so it becomes more obvious as she puts more weight on.
no subject
(Anonymous) 2015-04-06 01:10 am (UTC)(link)Lupita is: 34-24-37 (although I've also seen her at 33-24-38)
Nichelle is 35-23-37 or 34-23-37 (according to the sites I've seen)
Zoe is 32-25-32 or 34-25-34
Either way, Lupita is without a doubt MUCH closer to Nichelle.
Even if Zoe puts on more weight to accentuate her hourglass, both Lupita and Nichelle have smaller waists and bigger hips than her so I'm not sure what your point is.
Note that I'm not saying that an hourglass is SUPERIOR or anything. Just that Lupita's measurements are closer to Nichelle's than Zoe's are.

(Anonymous) 2015-04-06 01:30 am (UTC)(link)"When someone says that they're leaving and you could really give two shits less that they are. Their name then becomes "felicia", a random bitch that nobody is sad to see go. They're real name becomes irrelevant because nobody cares what it really is. Instead, they now are "felicia"."
I love how this supposedly means you don't give two shits even though you've been quite visibly invested for a good while.
Oh and the "they're [sic] real name becomes irrelevant" is making me chuckle considering we're both on anon.
But well played! I guess...?

(Anonymous) 2015-04-06 01:38 am (UTC)(link)Zoe with her, according to you, 33/34-25-34 measurements has it
Lupita has a triangle figure because the bust is smaller in proportion to her hips. Nichelle is more like the hourglass but not definite.
Your argument is stupid.
Comparing their numbers without taking into context their body types, weight, height, and proportions is silly. There is no math here, just EYES and with those anyone can tell that these women are different.
no subject
(Anonymous) 2015-04-06 01:12 am (UTC)(link)Zoe looks much more like young Nichelle in the face, this is the real disagrement with your original point. The rest is fucking nonsense.
no subject
(Anonymous) 2015-04-06 01:16 am (UTC)(link)Also, I disagree that Zoe has a more similar face. I think Lupita looks WAY more like Nichelle.
And, yes, I do think some people notice. I always liked that Nichelle, while extremely toned and curvy, never in any sense fit the definition of skinny. It's always something I admired about her and one of the things I really like about Lupita as well.

Yeah, I don't think so..

This is a face fade between nichelle and zoe instead:

Come the frigging on.
next you gonna say Alice Eve looks more like Nichelle too.

(Anonymous) 2015-04-05 11:53 pm (UTC)(link)Tbh, I don't even get what's their point anymore but it's gross.
no subject
(Anonymous) 2015-04-06 12:04 am (UTC)(link)"Lupita is as slim as Zoe is. In fact, neither of them has Nichelle's body type nor they have her curves. "
They said Lupita doesn't have Nichelle's curves. Well, I went and looked up the statistics.
Turns out that Lupita is the same height as Nichelle and they have the same hips size and Lupita's waist is only one inch larger.
So...yeah. Maybe you might not want to say someone doesn't have curves because all it takes is a five second google to call them out on their bullshit.
If someone is the same height and has basically the same measurements, it's pretty fucking stupid to try to insist to me that she's not curvy when Nichelle is. I'm not an idiot and am capable of doing my own research, thanks very much.
no subject
(Anonymous) 2015-04-06 12:41 am (UTC)(link)But she doesn't have her curves..That's not an insult to say that both she and zoe look different in body type compared to nichelle
And your being a tad hypocrital by taking offense on lupita's behalf when you are the one insulting zoe for her body and making a disgusting nonsense argument about body types once someone disagreed that your fave looks nothing like Nichelle in the face. I mean, she's very feminine to me. Slim but with a hourglass figure to her that pregnancy has made more obvious (look at her hips and cleavage now!)
What's even your problem.
no subject
(Anonymous) 2015-04-06 12:48 am (UTC)(link)NOWHERE.
I simply pointed out that Lupita and Nichelle have basically the same waist and hip measurements and are of the same height.
So saying that Lupita and Zoe are slim whereas Nichelle is curvy is a poor argument when you look at the stats alone. Unless you're talking about breast size but I was talking about the hourglass shape. Which is what I believe most people are talking about when they say "curvy."
And the other anon is the one who started all this talk about body types. I initially mentioned that Lupita looked more like Nichelle to me (which is my genuine impression) and only brought up the statistics because other anon was trying to insist to me that Lupita and Zoe are slim where Nichelle is curvy. And the math doesn't bear that out.
no subject
(Anonymous) 2015-04-06 01:07 am (UTC)(link)and resemblance between people is not in the 'stats' and ratio of hips
no subject
(Anonymous) 2015-04-06 01:13 am (UTC)(link)And given that I was talking about how I felt that Lupita's body type was more similar to Nichelle's than Zoe's was, I figured that bringing up the measurements would be pretty good evidence of what I was talking about.
When I say "slim" I mean more "willowy" rather than "curvy." If that was unclear then that's my fault and I apologize.
