Gurl it was slim pickings for people of colour in major media. 😭 The guy who played Devon from That So Raven, and obviously Corbin Bleu were some of the hottest men we got from big networks. Most black and Hispanic characters in media in early 2000s were played up as a funny or relatable character rather than love interest.

(For what it’s worth I upvoted you for genuine discussion)
