Only in the crazy world of corporate America could someone be fired for looking too good. Recently, a woman filed a lawsuit against Citibank for unlawful termination. The bank contested that she was simply too damned fine to work in the office and was a distraction to her coworkers. Most companies would be so lucky!

While Citibank doesn’t seem to know a good thing when they see it, we would like to salute some women who look good even when their particular industry/calling/occupation doesn’t deem it necessary.

    @ cubsfan..I was thinkin’ the SAME thing..I mean I wouldn’t say they are ugly but too hot for their jobs is one of the biggest exaggerated statements I’ve heard in a longgggg time.

    Soooooo women are only good for being SEEN is the point right?

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/Big_and_Sexy/ Big_and_Sexy

    Um….i dont kno about Serena

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/baby_living/ baby_living

    Wait..is this ok? A woman was actually fired for being “too hot”? She was a distraction to coworkers??? I feel like the coworkers that couldnt concentrate because of her “hotness” should be terminated. I mean this is some biased crap! This shows just how undisciplined men really are. They are afraid of thier reactions so they fire the girl. Doublestandards are alive and well. This does beatall. I really hope that she wins millions and make a deposit at that bank every weekend flaunting her hotness and now her wealth.

    damn mara lookin sexy then a mf. make me wanna drink that bath water.and eat it up.

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/ruelrokwel/ ruelrokwel

    I must admit all those women are hotter than you expect someone in their field to is so i say yes to all. And if u think serena looks too “mannish” you must obviously feel that way about most female athletes, that or where you live has a bunch of guys with boobs and buns like THAT!

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/ruelrokwel/ ruelrokwel

    Damn have yall seen Debbie Lorrenzana the chic that got fired. She’s HOT but I’ve seen seen women just as fine in many places i’ve worked and banked. I think they fired her cuz she wouldn’t let the boss hit.

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/FodayB/ FodayB

    Mara Brock Akil is the only lady on here that is real SEXY; the others are just ok and I would not stop on the street and turn back to look at them if they passed me by.

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/cubsfan1973/ cubsfan1973

    THIS IS FOR RUELROKWEL — YES I THINK SERENA LOOKS MANNISH (FACE STANDARDS) AND SHE IS NOT THE ONLY FEMALE ATHLETE OUT THERE, THERE ARE PLENTY OF ATTRACTIVE FEMALE ATHLETES, BUT FOR MY OPINION (HERE IS THE KICKER – MY OPINION) I NEVER THOUGHT SERENA WAS GOOD LOOKING!!!
    SO WHAT ABOUT HER BODY, HER FACE IS MANNISH!!!
    I AM NOT THE TYPE OF MAN WHO WOULD GET WITH A WOMAN JUST BECAUSE SHE MIGHT HAVE A SLAMMING BODY — I HAVE TO BE ATTRACTED TO THE WOMAN’S FACE!!!
    HERE IS A PERFECT EXAMPLE — THE SINGER MYA IS BUILT LIKE A STICK, BUT SHE IS ONE BEAUTIFUL WOMAN!!!
    I GO BY FACE FIRST THEN BODY!!!

    BUT LIKE I ALWAYS SAY — AN OPINION IS LIKE AN A$$HOLE, EVERYONE HAS ONE!!!
    I COULD CARE LESS WHAT THE NEXT MAN THINKS WHO IS ATTRACTIVE, I GO BY MY OWN STANDARDS, NO ONE ELSES!!!

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/jazzwatch/ jazzwatch

    A mixed bag here some H-O-T-T-I-E-S (Seran-the booty ;)) Vonetta,the rest are not too hot, more like L-U-K-E W-A-R-M……

    WOW..for the first time News One actually got something right.

    I guess their writers are starting to gain experience…

    They’ve come a long way from flipping burgers for lunch (LOL)

    Anyway, half the women on there where my ex’s from college.

    Any they say black women are not FINE!!! (NOT)

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/LexX4Real/ LexX4Real

    none of those girls were too hot for their jobs

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/MiSz_PiNk_DiamOnd/ MiSz_PiNk_DiamOnd

    Oh so basically theurbandaily is saying only unattractive women should be allowed to hold these positions? Oh okay I get it.

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/Perionne27/ Perionne27

    Which is why I say…only marry someone you love inside and out more than you could for anyone else. Because as successful as I plan on being, if I’m ever a single CEO…lord…it’s go be nothing but trouble lol

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/MsPrettyLadyDiva/ MsPrettyLadyDiva

    Some of those women were busted….seriously

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/odoggz/ odoggz

    @MiSz_PiNk_DiamOnd
    From a male perspective, I think it’s not just that, rather, they’re saying, if a woman is HOT and makes money, she’s a complete threat, to their manhood. That’s more of what I took from this. If you’re ugly and making money, they don’t care, YOU’RE UGLY, so they can shut you down with that. If you’re hot, smart, and making money, you are too intimidating.

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/nobabydaddy4me/ nobabydaddy4me

    Um all these women on this list is not that hot, sorry, call me what ya want

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/MrSyncDreams/ MrSyncDreams

    All of these women are beautiful, but….too hot for thier job ? I don’t think so. I mean they’ll get plenty of attention but compared to the woman who got fired from Citi Bank, now that’s a whole different level. Being in the banking industry, I can see where that woman would cause a problem.

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/DameDivalicious/ DameDivalicious

    None of the ladies up here are ugly but they’re not exactly stunner apart from Mara who look better in person than that picture up there.

    @odoggz
    You’re so right especially part of your comment:
    “If you’re hot, smart, and making money, you are too intimidating.”

    This is why some women like that decided to work for NOBODY and run their own business, either Americans are too damn intimidated by women like that because of some deep insecurities or it’s a fact that mainstream media shown women like that is very intimidating and dangerous. I have been in many situations while working (music industry)where some people were intimidated by me. Whatever! I give in to my job 1000% and even a white male CEO told me I’m a dream employee! Well, I definitely will be starting my own business and be the boss!

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/blazinPotPie37/ blazinPotPie37

    Yes some were hot some were not but never to hot to be working that is what’s wrong with the world today some of the chics think because they look good they don’t have to do s**t! Serena is definitely a not hell didn’t she just take her beads off her head 2 wks ago? Stop gasing up chics telling them they are too hot for their job.

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/SoularFlarez/ SoularFlarez

    an attractive woman who has her mind right and alot of money is a GOOD thing. RARE but still out there

    definitly beats a broke butter-face with a bad attitude.

    i still dont like that ‘too hot for their jobs’ thing cuz it sounds like women are only good if their pretty or that being pretty is so important that they dont need any other positive attributes.

    ie: “she might by ig’nant and broke but DAMN she got a fat azz” lol

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/digg_it_up/ digg_it_up

    unless she aint doin her job instead of trying to look pretty and costing the company money then she gotta go….but am not go fire a hard working woman who takes care of herself and looks dam good doin her job…..thats just gay…..especialy my black woman….oh how i love dark meat…

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/FocusedIn07/ FocusedIn07

    Ummm some of those girls were cute at best just sayin’. I don’t think I’d consider a single woman up there “hot”.

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/Nightowl358/ Nightowl358

    Som’More is on this list? Puh-leese!

    Anyway, those women are cute, but none of them are too hot for anything.

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/jazzwatch/ jazzwatch

    1. 2 and 9 are attractive to me: not feeling the eye shadow on 2; the rest are B-U-T-T-A-F-A-C-E-S……

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/Leticia39/ Leticia39

    What about 8 jaz !?!?!?!!?

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/jazzwatch/ jazzwatch

    Leticia, not diggin’ her hair, but the rest is good and as far as the booty;BOINNNNNGGGG!

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/babytonnie/ babytonnie

    notice all the men hating are at least partially facially challenged….These women look good, have talent and probably make more than all of you combined.

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/Phillip_The_So_Fine/ Phillip_The_So_Fine

    I saw the lady, Debralee Lorenzana and she is a very pretty lady, but pretty ladies are a dime a dozen…if anything, Citibank should fire the coworkers that get so distracted that they can’t work around a attractive person…WTF is that!?!

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/BigSeanNY/ BigSeanNY

    So what,I work security at Radio City,US Open Tennis and see pretty ass women and cooworkers all the time so big deal.

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/Paneiro1/ Paneiro1

    I doubt the report says she was “too dammed fine”. How did she dress??? If they just fired the woman for being attractive they are the most idiotic business on the planet. They must love to give away money in court. As for the rest of the article, do your da#n job there are more important things then whos the hottest girl in the room.

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/U_InquireMi/ U_InquireMi

    I would love to work around beautiful women all day. It would make my day for real. But I can understand if it were a dress code thing because some women dress like their going to a club. If these beautiful women talk to other co-workers like crap then I can understand. I’m never scared of an attractive woman with everything in order, if her personality is crap I’ll just simply ignore her that’s all. No harm in that.

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/Leticia39/ Leticia39

    Wow can’t believe you said that about your Serena jazzwatch!

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/jazzwatch/ jazzwatch

    Why not, Leticia???? WHo wants a booty that looks like Pam ANderson or Julia Roberts??? Not meeeeee……

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/BP_SportsFreaks/ BP_SportsFreaks

    Reischea Canidate (ESPN, First Look) is damn near too hot and sexy too. Any brothas ever see her? She’s smooth as silk and dresses provocative some days. And when she crosses her juicy brown thighs, I be like ‘DAY-UM!!’

    Serena looks better on the court than off….jus sayin.

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/hersey1/ hersey1

    well i work on the damn railroad and aint s**t like that here…you can tell the less than 1% women we do have here from the damn dudes!:-( i’d love to have 1 of these women just come around and loiter from time to time just to brighten up my work day!! lmao

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/The_Rodeo/ The_Rodeo

    This caption is a little scary. Why can’t beautiful black women have jobs? Is a good looking sistah only supposed to make income on her looks. That’s very close to saying that our women should only use “some form” of prostitution to get income.
    I read the article and I know that is not what the author meant and I know that I am nit picking. I just don’t like this caption…

    On a lighter note. Have a said how much I love Black Women lately?
    From their intellect to their deep souls…
    From their hips to their lips…
    From their thighs to their eyes…
    From their style to their smiles…
    I love me some sistahs…
