    I feel like characterizing Halle Bailey as “just some chick” is disingenuous at best.

      Most of the people on the list have been successful actors/actress longer than Halle was alive.

        Regardless, she’s acclaimed and talented. Her performance was excellent. Her previous performances have been excellent. If all the hypothetical naysayers have to go on is career length, it seems like a very weak motive for selective hatred.

      …gonna be real honest. Just some chick is actually less of a description than I’d give in this case.

      She was in two romantic comedies, I guess? A lotta Last Holiday fans? She wasn’t known for anything beforehand other than one sitcom spinoff, unless she’s a pop star or influencer or something, in which case… lol?
