"The Back-up Plan": Can J-Lo Back-up to a Leading Man of Color??? PLEASE!!!

So, Jennifer Lopez is starring in a new movie with Alex O'Loughlin (who???), called "The Back-up Plan."

According to the Internet Movie Database, "The Back-up Plan" is "[a] romantic comedy centered on a woman who conceives twins through artificial insemination, only to meet the man of her dreams on the very same day."

So... Ms. Lopez is a mixed-race Hispanic and, in "The Back-up Plan,"  the "man of her dreams" is a white man...

I see...

Seems like I've seen this before... from Ms. Lopez!

In 1998, there was "Out of Sight," with George Clooney:

In 2001, there was "The Wedding Planner," with Matthew McConaughey:

In 2002, there was "Maid in Manhattan," with Ralph Fiennes:

In 2003, there was the infamous "Gigli," with Ben Affleck:

In 2004, there was "Shall We Dance," with Richard Gere:

In 2005, there was "Monster in Law," with Michael Vartan (who???):

This year (2010), she appeared in a guest spot on the tv sitcom, "How I Met Your Mother," as Barney's (Neil Patrick Harris) love-interest-of-the-moment:

Sooooo...

Do you... ummmmm... see a pattern here???

J-Lo is making a CAREER of playing the sexy, shapely brown-skinned woman who finds her ideal (white) man...

She's the Hispanic Thandie Newton!

I wonder what Hispanics think of their most prominent movie star playing these parts with these storylines.

I also wonder if J-Lo ever thinks about the message that her "Your Ideal Man is a White Man" movies send?

I doubt that she does.

Probably just cashes that check!

Cha-CHING!!!

If she ever does think about it, maybe she'd make a few movies with a leading man of color.

It would be a nice change of pace!

By the way...

I know it was a long time ago... but...

Does anybody remember when Jennifer Lopez was really Hispanic, and LOOKED LIKE IT???

For those who've forgotten, here's a reminder:

Hey...

Who's THAT girl???
