Embracing Their Types! Actors Who Play The Same Role Over & Over Again
Paula Jai Parker
P stands for Paula. P also stands for the promiscuous characters that Paula has a thing for playing. She had an unforgettable role as a feisty and arrogant prostitute in Hustle & Flow, who quarreled with the man in her life (her pimp that is), DJay. That casting might’ve been inspired by her role in 1997’s Sprung, in which she played Adina: the easy, gold-digging, and sabotaging best friend. The list of questionably promiscuous characters goes on, but she’s already tried to expand her portfolio. She was the mother on The Proud Family!
