Ok Tessa, pack it up. You talk about him EVERY SINGLE TIME. Talk about YOUR career instead of using his name for views.

It hurts me that she's a lesbian… because I see a wife that's made for a man like God attended… and I'm not trying to sound religious I'm just saying

She can't act and. Brody is insufferable so this is not gonna go long

Tessa reminds me of Eartha Kitt in appearance. She'd be great in romantic comedy.

😂 that sounds wild… but knowing Tessa Thompson and Michael B. Jordan, do you think it was serious or just playful behind-the-scenes energy? 👀

What a delight Tessa is! 🌟 Would love to see Tessa & Seth go day drinking! She's got great energy for it – and her character in Ragnarok would crush it! 🤣

Am I tripping or did she not even bring up the Oscars?

Her role is reminiscent of the role that MBJ played in Just Mercy. Except he was a rookie lawyer who helped free a man that was also wrongfully imprisoned. Love their parallel

I once compared a friend to Tessa in appearance.
Now I'm glad to find that she is the most authentic celeb I've ever seen.

You don’t have to rig what is already rigged

How could y'all not mention His & Hers? And folks not clapping for Hedda is criminal. It's an AMAZING film.

Body work has been around for like 50 years. I took classes in 1977 and it wasn't new then. Maybe read The Aquarian Conspiracy by Ferguson to catch up, Seth.
