Angela Bassett: “How Stella Got Her Groove Back,” 1998

Angela Bassett sizzles in a pink bikini, rocking a light pink scarf tied to her hair, as she stands by the dreamy Caribbean sea in “How Stella Got Her Groove Back.” This 1998 romantic drama follows Stella Payne, a high-powered stockbroker who heads to Jamaica for a much-needed break and finds love in the arms of a younger man, played by the charming Taye Diggs.

Angela’s career kicked off in the 1980s, but she really hit her stride with her electrifying portrayal of Tina Turner in “What’s Love Got to Do with It” in 1993. She’s starred in blockbusters like “Black Panther,” “Waiting to Exhale,” and “Malcolm X.”
