I wouldn't call an actress who has won an Oscar, a Golden Globe and four Emmy awards a B-level actress. She's had a long and successful career, maybe she just decided to make some bank doing commercials.

I've always thought she had a kinda cute girl-next-door vibe.

If she had lived next door to me, I would have tried to hit it.

She looks like Michelle Obama, but without a dick.

She's been in a lot of big movies recently. Oscar winner. Good looking. Probably has a good agent.

Still remember her from 227 back in the 80s. She's been around a long time. Fine as hell too

I'm pretty sure having an Academy Award is technically A level.



A level means most people recognize her and know her name.


This thread shows she is not an A lister.

an Someone Explain Regina King's Meteoric Rise - Commercials
I don't recall any B level actor suddenly becoming the face of so many blue chip companies/products like Regina has in 2022. From the new Cadillac EV to Vasoline to Wells Fargo and at least several more, I honestly can't get my head around how she's been promoted to brand ambassador of such a wide and diversified portfolio of products.

How does this even happen for a B level, most supporting actress? If I'm Cadillac (GM Finance) and I know she's already the it girl at Wells Fargo, why is she all of a sudden the face of my brand?
The problem is your own ignorance. You've had it pointed out to you, and you are indifferent to its existence.

I didn't need the "obvious" pointed out to me as I already knew the goldfish brains of the OT (not unlike yourself) would immediately go there. I was very well aware of the "obvious" even before I made this thread. What I was really trying to get insight on was how is this woman getting the most prestigious brands that are in direct competition with each other, and doing it within the last 6 to 8 months which is crazy. Got that goldfish or do I need to elaborate as you go 360 around that goldfish tank? Your new name is Big Goldfish TX.

No, she wasn't. That is Regina Hall.

I see you've somehow added that moving goalpost after falling flat on your face.

I don't know who she is but I pretty much avoid brands that force feed me woke shite. 95% of our population isn't black, gay or trans as reflected in most commercials today. And, I probably have more disposable income than 90% of the population. If you want my business, at least try and be somewhat realistic.

Big talk. But still 0% chance you don't have an iPhone and/or an Android phone.

Yeah, in the past 3-4 years she's won an Academy Award for best supporting actress, starred in an HBO critically acclaimed series (Watchmen), and made her directorial debut in a movie that was nominated for 3 Academy Awards. She herself was nominated for best director at the Golden Globes and Critics Choice Awards.


And she has a recurring role on Big Bang Tbeory, and she’s pretty funny. I’ll allow it.
