Where Are They Now? 10 Black Actresses Who Should Have Blown Up Big…

N’Bushe Wright

For me, I actually remember N’Bushe Wright most from her role as Nicki in Zebrahead. In it, she faced the ire of those around her for falling in love with Michael Rapaport’s Zack, a white guy. If you ask others, they think she was stellar in films like Fresh and of course, Dead Presidents. Whenever you saw Wright though, it was probably hard to forget her. Unfortunately, she never became one of the big actresses in Hollywood, though she has the chops to be huge. Outside of just doing those notable films, Wright had a recurring role on the show “New York Undercover” as J.C.’s love interest Carol, was in the movie Blade, Three Strikes, Civil Brand, Joy Road, and did the movie, A Talent for Trouble in 2011. And who could forget her as Calvin’s cheating baby mother (from the “WacArnolds” skit) on the hilarious “Chappelle’s Show”? She’s a great actress, hope to see her in more stuff ASAP.
