"Bad Mamma Jamma": Pam Grier


Its taken me so damned long to find a Bad Mamma Jamma for this week. I checked and my last one was in January of this year. That is ridiculous. Now, there are some young girls that are kicking ass in films but not enough to warrant an entire blog dedicated to them. Its all about consistency. This weeks BMJ has been making pants tight and wet from fear for damn near forty years. I present to you the beautiful and talented (inside joke) Pam Grier!

Yes, please!

Born in Winston-Salem, North Carolina, Grier moved to Los Angeles where she worked as a receptionist. Jesus, can you imagine seeing a receptionist that looked like her? She was discovered by a director and starred in her first film, The Big Doll House. If you have not seen that film…wow. There is so much badness it turns around and becomes amazing. And she is not afraid to show her goods. I had to try to not find pictures of her boobs. Eventually she gained fame in starring roles in Coffy and Foxy Brown. These films made every Black person think they could do karate with hilarious results.

The look you get when you ask for a kiss goodbye.

She had parts in dozens of movies and TV shows but the one movie that brought her back into the spotlight was Jackie Brown. I had actually forgotten how hot she was until that opening scene where she’s just walking to work. That’s all she needed to do to make you remember how beautiful she was! Later she starred in The L Word where she was aggravating as hell but nice to look at.

Giggity.

At the age of 63 she is still better looking than most 25 year old walking around thinking they’re cute. Plus she looks like a woman. There aren’t many chicks these days that have that…look to them. There are movies where she looks busted as hell but manages to still be attractive. And the answer is yes. Whatever you just wondered about me and whether I would the answer is yes even though she’d break it into five pieces.
