Yeah that was a photoshopped image

Editing has gotten so good but shopped photos in movies remain mediocre at best

That’s what I thought. Mad to see in a 40’s setting.

Just Googled, there is a character that will be in the show named “Alice”, played by Danielle Phillips. She debuts in episode 3. She looks a bit heavyset, so my guess this is just a postcard she sent the guy, this definitely isn’t the actress, lol

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wZXoErL2124&a... around 40 second mark. Dave Chappelle special "Sticks and Stones" on Netflix.

Literally they only pan to the audience once, and when they do, they focus in on a super buffed, muscular woman.

We need names

Jessica Biel in a (terrible) movie called “London.” I recall two scenes where her amazing physique is featured. One shower scene where her back is ripped and a sex scene with Chris Evan’s where she’s on top and her shoulders and arms look fantastic.

Dallas Malloy was the lead in a short film, "Worship" about an fbb. https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rc...

Carla Haug in Arli$$ featured her as a sex symbol and had a sex scene with her on top and punching a hole in a wood headboard. Unfortunately, if I remember correctly,in the next scene,after having consensual sex with the guy she's dating, she comes out of the bathroom and rapes him with a strap-on.

Jayne Trcka aka Kasie Kavanaugh (who I once met) was in Scary Movie (2000) the slasher killer film parody, but the character she plays is the butt of a very gross unfunny joke playing on her supposed "manliness", She's also in Lady Gaga's Telephone music video.

I don't hate every joke about FBBs, but yes, that's a pretty heavy-handed one.

It says "Coming Soon" back in 2019, did this ever come out?

Feb 28, 2024 - permalink

It did, but it's not easy to find. Your best bet is an illegal streaming site.

For anyone who is familiar with the House Party series you may or may not remember catching this. This series is a massive cult classic (mainly among Black Americans) that was started in the early 90s. In the first movie, there was a scene where Kid from the hip-hop duo Kid N' Play, and Tisha's character Sidney were about to get down to business but they couldn't do it because Kid had a super old, dried up condom in his wallet and on top of that she notices that her parents are arriving home. In a haste to beat them to the punch, she quickly gets up and starts undressing to change into her PJs and right when she slips her pants off, you get a nice but very quick glimpse of her flexed abs as she hunches over to get her pants off and once she fully disrobes you get a nice glimpse of her slender fit physique (I can't provide a screenshot because what is available is a very washed fuzzy image of that particular part. The screenshot I did provide is from that scene though). This is back when Tisha Campbell was in really good shape so almost any production she did in the 90s if she was wearing something that exposed her stomach, you would get a nice glimpse of her soft yet slightly pronounced abs.

This screenshot of her in a cropped sweatshirt from an episode of Martin highlights what I'm talking about.

Also co-starring alongside her was AJ Johnson (not to be confused with the AJ Johnson who was also an extra in the first House Party and had a minor role in the 3rd movie that later went on to play Ezell in the movie Friday) who played the character Sharane who during the time didn't particularly have any noticeable muscularity but as the years went on became involved in fitness and developed a very impressive physique. This is a shot of her in more recent times and she is 61 now.

For those familiar with the Wayans Family catalog may not mention this movie first when recalling the productions they've put out but this screenshot was from a Keenan Ivory Wayans film called "Low Down Dirty Shame" that very briefly featured the wildly obscure and ever elusive "Pillow" in a spa scene. And if you're looking at the screenshot thinking "wait, that's not the Pillow I remember" then allow me to explain. I know underrated retro GMWs are discussed on this site but in all honesty I believe this Pillow is probably the most least known or explored retro FBB especially to be one that has actually appeared on television and in film productions. She literally has no contest history, is only credited under the mononym "Pillow" in cast listings, and is completely overshadowed by the other Pillow that was prevalent during that same era. So much so that if you google "Pillow bodybuilder" the only thing that will come up with her on it is the video that Dr. Showbiz did literally explaining the dichotomy between the two of them. It's so bizarre! Pillow has also appeared on the High Noon episode of Martin (alongside Debbie Muggli), as well as a skit on In Living Color yet there's hardly a trace of her to be found even to this day.

And lastly, circling back around to the House Party series, in the 3rd movie there's a janky record label executive played by comedian Michael Colyar who is protected by an exclusively female bodyguard fleet that do his bidding for him. They are depicted as silent enforcers that use their strength and power to intimidate the likes of those who are indebted to his character. They are seen doing everything from crushing billiard balls to restraining Kid and Play while Michael's character Showboat explains his bottom line to them. I am most partial to the one on the far right for obvious reasons and I found her to be the most attractive one. This rare dynamic was a huge anomaly to see in movies in the 90s even if done for comedic purposes.

This is kind of "marginal," but one scene of the comedy SURF II has a "buff" blonde girl lifting barbells. They aren't huge barbells, but you could still include her.

In the movie "Anaconda" about 2/3 thru there is a scene of JLo on the boat fixing her pony tail where her considerable biceps pops. This was like 10 years ago but I think she still has them!

yeah, J-Lo did look good in Anaconda. But your timeline is kinda off, that movie is over 25 years old. She was probably still in her late 20s then.
