Theresa Randle

The 48-year-old actress has been acting since ’87 and has starred alongside everyone from Martin Lawrence and Will Smith in Bad Boys, to Michael Jordan and Bugs Bunny in Space Jam. But it wasn’t until Spike Lee picked her to play Girl 6 in the movie of the same name as an out-of-work actress who tries her hand at phone sex for a living that we actually got to see her shine in a lead role. She was pretty, had a good voice and pretty good acting talents, so where did she disappear off to? Well, she’s been here and there since the ’96 film. She did Spawn with Michael Jai White, Bad Boys II, appeared in a couple episodes of “Law & Order: Criminal Intent” and did a short-lived Lifetime show called “State of Mind.” But her last film role was 2010′s S**t Year. It’s 2012, girl, come back!

    Sharon Warren did her thing in Ray…Loved her…But that definitely wasn’t a flattering picture of some you claim to be “a friend of”…

    How about Lourdes de Oliveira from the French/Brazilian classic Black Orpheus? She’d be in her 70s now, but what a talented beauty, Apparently acted in only one other movie.

    I so love this list. I was wondering what happend to some of these ladies as well. They should have included the one that played J.C baby momma on New York Undercover. I can’t think of her character name she was a pretty good actress.

    Just Another Girl on the I.R.T. is the one where she is pregnant but hiding it from her family by secretly throwing away food at night so they think she’s just fat and overeating right? I saw that when I was in elementary school and once in high school I think

    I think Tracey Camilla Johns committed sadly suicide many years ago…that she felt her career was a failure.
