Oh my gosh, felt exactly the same way. I always, ALWAYS, ALWAAAAAAAAAAAYS pictured Lav Lav as being 'of color'from the very beginning. And she WAS black in PoA. That would be really horrible if they cast a white girl because they didnt want a black girl having such a prominent role or something. I would really, really hate to believe that. I hope thats not the case. But it kinda seems like it is.

that's actually not true. racial dicrimination is illegal. but not in stage and screen acting. for instance if you've seen the movie or musical Hairspray you would know that there is no way a black girl could play that role since one of the major parts of that movie is that she is a white girl in a society that is differen. if she was black she would not be able to bridge the gap between the two races.

It's interesting that so many people imagined her as Black. I guess i'm stereotypical in that i imagined her as blonde because she comes off as being a ditzy type to me and i associate those types with blondes lol.
That being said, i think Jessie will make a great Lavender. -

Wow, that was incredibly offensive Paris. You know hair color has NOTHING to do with personality. It's just a physical appearance. ANYONE can be ditzy or smart, no matter the hair color, or skin color for that matter.

im sorry, but not everyone can be happy with an actresses appearance. No one in the world pictured lavender the same when they visualized her while reading, so not eveyone can be pleased with the appearance of her on screen. Even if the casting director found someone 17, and had the exact same features of the lavender that i visualized, i would not want them to cast her if she could not act.

i imagined lavender to just be brunette..and maybe a little bit tanned white girl..
but oh well. this girl here will become lavender. book-based movies cant be like the book to the tee.
cause thatd be a perfect world, wouldnt it? -

I always pictured her as a black girl, I can't exactly say if I was given this impression specifically from what was written in the books, but I get Entertainment Weekly and they pictured her as a black girl in their Goodbye Harry issue w/ a Hogwarts year book, so that kind of solidified it for me. I'm a little confused, but I can't help but enjoy anthing Harry

Lavender is never described in the book. So you can't really say she doesn't look like Lavender should because it is down to personal imagination. And I don't think she is black because there is a part in the book where it says that Ron and Lavender's arms were wrapped up in a way you couldn't tell who's were whose or something like that. If she was black it would be quite easy to tell don't you think.
