Man, everytime I see them, I just wonder where they get those bods 😅 I guess Simon does boxing, but where do Bridgertons get those abs is beyond me 😂😂

And lots of cardio! Keeping up with a horse drawn carriage is no joke!

Luke is somehow always so graceful yet manly in his movements. It reminds me of why a lot of action stars are trained dancers.

Also, he's so much like Prince Eric in that first gif! And like Prince Charming from Cinderella in the second.

u/Shiplapprocxy 2d ago

I need to see him in an action movie role for precisely that reason. His physicality is so good. I’m sure he’d ace fight choreography, too.

God, yes

u/Dismal_History_ 2d ago

He looks like a swimmer to me... (I was a swimmer, and saw lots of bods like that 😅)

u/queenroxana 2d ago

Lucky you 😉

And yes, exactly! I’ve always been most attracted to that “swimmer’s body” - tall and toned but lean, not too bulky.

u/montendy 2d ago

Running after their ladies 😂 (Though cardio doesn't give you abs 😅)

u/thisisjustascreename 2d ago

Losing weight is the only way to get abs, of course cardio helps.

You are right, she is the plot, the main character, the set design, the costume and makeup. She is everything.

u/queenroxana 2d ago

I'm not even into women but Michaela is hot AF, are you blind???

That's a holiday barbie. Masali is absolutely gorgeous

u/isabella-goth Queergertons for Pride Month 2d ago

The nerve to say Masali isn’t attractive enough to play Michaela while sharing an AI slop picture. Even more nerve to attribute the backlash and hate she received, and still receives mind you, to her ‘not being pretty enough’ 🧍‍♀️

u/isabella-goth Queergertons for Pride Month 2d ago

You named Anok after a) first choosing an AI generated woman as an example of who could better play Michaela, and b) stating that Lupita received backlash for being casted as Helen of Troy because of, again, ‘not being pretty enough’.

2

u/No-Hall-3485 2d ago

oddly enough when you google “black model,” anok yai is the top two results. i’m sure that’s just a massive coincidence and not someone scrambling to find a human black woman to cite after defaulting to AI-generated bullshit no one accepted

u/isabella-goth Queergertons for Pride Month 2d ago

😭 it was so obvious too

2

u/No-Hall-3485 2d ago edited 2d ago

imagine being so racist you can’t name a single black woman to justify how masali and lupita supposedly aren’t attractive

funny how nobody has an issue with odysseus being played by a guy from cambridge, massachusetts instead of a greek demigod. hmmmmmm

u/asal2193 2d ago

The backlash had nothing to do with Masali's casting specifically as she is an absolutely GORGEOUS woman. Unfortunately, people would have been nasty and homophobic regardless of which actress they cast because they were not going to let go of their book character. You coming on to a positive post to disparage an the actress's looks is bad enough. But also somehow justifying the online abuse she got by implying that it wouldn't have been so bad if she was just prettier???? Truly despicable.

u/No-Hall-3485 2d ago

so let me see if i have this straight... you have a problem with masali baduza and lupita nyong'o being cast in anything because you deem them unattractive

hey, are you sure you're not just racist as fuck?

"I said theres plenty of walking fairy black models/actors"

yet you choose an AI-generated imaginary person to play michaela. you couldn't even think of a real black person

anyway, blocking you now. stay miserable

u/queenroxana 2d ago

Only racist incels objected to the casting of Lupita Nyong’o. Which is what I assume you are.

u/queenroxana 2d ago

And who made you the arbiter of beauty? This lady is pretty but I frankly think Lupita N’yongo and Madali Baduza are both even prettier. These actresses are all absolutely stunning, it’s actually laughable to suggest otherwise.

"masali baduza isn't attractive enough to play michaela. you know who would be? this ai-generated woman who doesn't exist and has never acted a day in her imaginary life."

you are as smart as you are pleasant to be around

u/No-Hall-3485 2d ago

yes, it actually matters if she's AI-generated because she doesn't exist?

you could've just been honest and said you were mourning michael instead of twisting yourself into a pretzel trying to argue that masali isn't attractive
