Nicole Ari Parker – “Soul Food”
Parker had quite a significant role as Teri Joseph on TV version of “Soul Food” on Showtime. Within the family drama, Parker managed to add even more depth to Teri’s character from the movie — getting it on with younger Damon (Boris Kodjoe), having anxiety attacks, to getting married and adopting a son. Parker wasn’t the only female lead on the show though. She shares that title with her TV sisters played by Malinda Williams (Bird) and Vanessa A. Williams (Maxine).
