Most Beautiful Dark Complex Women

The most bootylicious, yet gorgeous artistic women of american entertainment. Not all are dark skinned, but dark in some ways or another.

If the first two statements are true, then the third must be also:

Dark is sexy. Complex women are sexy. Thus Dark Complex Women are sexy.

American pop culture has displayed many artful styles when it comes to beautiful women, here are the top 10 most Beautiful Dark Complex African American Women.

1. Erykah Badu - In the mid 90s, she was drop dead gorgeous. She matured into an even more beautiful butterfly. She can fit a body suit on at 45+ and still out shine a 20 year old. In her On & On video in 2009, she had dirt on her face, wearing rags, but still looking like a dime piece. Those big poofy lips, sultry curvy sculupture and plenty of junk in the trunk. Ms Badu has a body of a goddess, along with natural beauty.

As an entertainer, she gets the movie roles, the jazzy performances, smooth videos and quite a few cameo appearances from time to time. Her "look" is her art as well, and that is what places her on the top of this list. From afros to chickenheads, she can do it all. She's had on hats, wigs, dreads, you name it... and she can do it. Baby is bad, only a Texan can do it big like she does.

Her roles are always as eccentric as she is, sorta like Grace Jones was. Legends of Chamberlain Heights, and Black Dynamite were extremely dark animated shows that showcased special voice abilities. Erykah Badu is also tied for the shortest woman on the list at 5 feet tall.

2. Tichina Arnold (Pam) - Junk-in-da-trunk herself. Every Hates Chris' star stole the show, but she stole Martin first. All the dancing around in tights displayed an outstandingly fit, petite frame, but very curvy woman who is multi talented. She sings, and has been on TV ever since. She still stands out even going into her modern roles.

Survivor's Remorse gave her a much more adult platform, yet she still had her normal family friendly features. Lockdown, basically an african american “Orange is the new Black”- genre show, She’s on every week again with The Neighborhood.She, like Gina, has never been unemployed, and a sought after commodity in the industry. Even though one of her later character’s names is grandma. About the average height of a woman 5 feet 6 inches tall.

3. Kelly Rowland (Destiny's Child) - Holy Destiny's Child, Batman! Its the other girl. Beyonce is known by one name, but so is Kelly, just as was Robin. The only thing, she was never bested by her more famous partner for beauty. She also held her own in the dancing and such, for a solid member of a girl group. After that, she went on to the movies and a few show cameos. Now she is the most beautiful judge on any reality contest show in the world, African American or not. Kelly is a towering giant at 5 feet 8 inches tall, with long amazing chocolate legs.

4. Deja Trimble (Dej Loaf) - Got a little thug in her, but they all do, to make this list,, and that alternate lifestyle look is just HOT! This little spinner is just the right amount in all the right places. Absolutely flawless beauty. She has a platinum recording voice. To see her and hear her at the same time is amazing. Truly a blessed and gifted human being. Extremely active in 2015 and 20016, she’s been under the radar for a few years as far as an artistic production, but her social media is pumping as strong as ever. New Pictures of arguably the most beautiful woman in the world are not hard to find. She is 5 feet 2 inches tall.

5. Elise Neal - On the set of Malcolm X alongside number 7. She is not actually a dark skinned woman, but she has that feel of exactly how beautiful an African American woman can look. But she hit her peak in 1997. That backside was like the perfect off-road bike ramp. Rosewood, yes, she was that very pretty young woman in Rosewood. She was also the Fresh Prince's girlfriend for a while. The Hughleys is the show she is most known for, she was the wife. She was the modern day Thelma at that time. Nothing has ever been better than Thelma. She’s from Memphis. Southern girl with a strong ethnic background. Ethnic jeans too, you can tell when she’s wearing jeans the most. Not as active as the rest, but still enjoying a very productive career. The perfect height is 5 feet 4 inches tall.

6. Lupita Nyong’o - She's a Star Wars character and the baddest of the Black Panthers crew. Body of a goddess, may be an understatement. This is another that has a flawless body of art. She was made from a mold that we all wish to emulate. In the movie, Us, she was also the doppelganger of herself, and basically had two roles, the lead, and the main villain! So her skills match her beauty, the camera was indeed pleased when pointined in her direction for 2x the amount of time. She is also a renowned voice actor. She is the voice of Maz Kanata, in many forms of media from video games to the big screen. Her forehead is even pretty and perfectly shaped. She is 5 feet 5 inches, more perfection.

7. Angela Bassett - The senior representative. At one time of course she was on top of this list. The fact that she is still on the list proves her outstanding beauty. She is no less beautiful, just other ladies are being born! Seeing her in skin-tight space suits in Supernova back in 2000, was as awesome as seeing her as a mom in Boyz in the Hood, 1991. Then in 2017, she stands next to many younger beautiful women, as a peer, in Black Panther. Let's be honest, when she got her Groove back as Stella was the most memorable of her performances, because, I'm still Waiting to exhale. Believe it or not, she is only 5 feet 3 inches tall. Nerd note: She's been in a DC and Marvel superhero movie as significant characters.

8. Keshia Knight Pulliam (Rudy Huxtable) - Ever went on a site to see "what child stars look like now?" Rudy grew up to be a knockout. She has the woman next door look, but a much sleeker frame than average. She still can act, has a nice singing voice and a wonderful career. She's on here for what she looks like now and in her prime, legal, ages only. She came back to acting thanks to Madea, Tyler Perry. Ever since, she has been showing off her thespian skills, once again. She’s churning out the TV movies, which are a serious boon these days of straight to video, VOD and streaming services. It seems a get cameo/reunion with another Cosby kid in Guys with Kids, resparked a flame. Standing at 5 feet tall, she is the shortest on the list.

9. Bern Nadette Stanis (Thelma Ann Evans) - She really started it all. Thelma was the number one black woman on TV for decades, even long after the show ended. Not only because of the lack of other shows, but she was still more beautiful than her rivals anyway, whether they be on TV, singers, movie stars or whatever. The only women to infiltrate her dominance, of the real African American woman's body, were in somewhat of a taboo industry. Even still today however, she is a gorgeous business woman, and worthy of this list. It's hard to find her these days but she is still active. A few cameos and TV films. Talk shows and Good Times reunions are the easiest way to see amazingly gorgeousness now. It's really a shame for the masses. Another standing 5 feet 3 inches tall.

10. Toni Braxton - She's not the darkest of skinned ladies to make the list. She has a relationship with Birdman, that has to darken things up a bit, and I don't mean for the worse, either. The depth of her beauty is displayed when she stands near any, or all, of her super gorgeous family of bombshell sisters. Tony had the shorter hair, all of the other women went to short hair. She is as beautiful as it comes. One of her biggest hits rival Afroman’s 420 national anthem, and was produced by none other than Dr. Dre. For years, she was the standard for every D-Boys “main” girl. She even remixed the great Tupac’s “Me and My Girlfriend.” Thus fashion, the sass, and the amazing beauty make her a “dark” woman, even with the pretty caramel skin. Toni is 5 feet and 2 inches tall.

Another reason she qualifies is because her voice is so much like that of Anita Baker, who just missed out to Angela Bassett. She has aged, but the beauty is still there. Brandy also was under consideration, and there's something about gospel soul sister "African American Mary" Michelle Williams other than her perfect voice, legs, and rump.

The term dark also refers to types of art, comedy, and music as well, not only skin color. If Jenny McCarthy married Suge Knight, she'd be on the list. There are plenty of other puns and easter eggs in this article to help locate current information on all these ladies and others. Most of my information came from their wiki pages and rest came from IMDB. Those are always my favorite go to sources. Thanks for reading, hope you enjoyed it as much as I did creating it, please ask for more!
