[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]With those big eyes and fresh, round face, Halle Bailey literally looks like a Disney princess come to life. I don't know how anyone can fault this casting.[/quote]

When she smiles, she does look like a convincing Ariel.  Other times, though, she's definitely not cute.  Wideset eyes might sound like they should be a lovely feature, but they can look strange.  [/quote]

Who do you consider cute and worthy enough to play Ariel, if not this girl?[/quote]

I have no problem with picking her.  I also think she's a strange looking girl.  [/quote]

Bizarre--she looks like a lot of cute black girls.  Not sure what's so strange about her look.[/quote]

NP. I am all about her being Ariel but don't understand willfully acting like you don't know what PP is talking about. Her eyes are set apart much farther than the average human's. It gives her a unique look. One kind of appropriately aquatic honestly. She's a pretty girl, but her facial structure is unique. Which is probably a part of why she is a celebrity as 'uniquely attractive' is a good thing to have on your resume. [/quote]

PP again.  I'm black, and she looks like a lot of cute black girls I know.  I don't know about her eyes being wide apart.  She doesn't have European features/bone structure though--is that what you think looks strange?[/quote]

Dp. I’m black as well and she looks similar to black girls I know bc of her style and hair. Her facial features do not resemble the black girls I know. It’s very clear her eyes are set wide apart and that’s what everyone is clearly stating. It adds to her features to some ppl and hinders her features to others. To say that you cannot see that is being willfully blind so you can win an argument. And actually her nose is a European feature more than a black feature. I’m for her being Ariel and I’ll support a black woman in the role but I’m still not blind. [/quote]

PP here.  She looks like plenty of black girls.  The singer Brandy has a similar look around the eyes (and also played a Disney princess).

Posters on this site is so critical.  Some posters were saying Meghan Markle's eyes are set too close together.  Now this girl's eyes are too far apart?  She's a pretty, talented girl--who cares about the damn spacing between her eyes?[/quote]

One is not plenty and Brandy has eyes that are wide apart. That is something that has been said about Brandy her entire career. I don’t care about the spacing but the issue was ppl taking offense that not everyone thinks Halle is cute. You think she’s cute. Fine. Everyone else doesn’t have too. Ppl notice your looks even if you refuse too. [/quote]
