It's just the best people at acting... or at least that's what it's supposed to be. It looks to me though that the people thought the question was about the biggest movie star because The Rock and Kevin Hart haven't shown much in the way of acting chops. Weird to me that we don't see Charlize Theron on the list or that Meryl Streep never made either list since both are two of the great actors of all time.

Very strange that since both lists featured women that you would dub this "the mens list of Actors".

Maybe I’m just old?
Actor says to me “men”
Actress says to me “women”
Not sure how they label any other gender?

I get what you are saying but like many other things in our language the non-gender specific reverts back to the masculine when addressing the profession as a whole. Like the acclaimed "Inside the Actors Studio" with James Lipton wasn't only for men who act but all actors men and women. When specifying women who act we use actress(es) but when addressing groups of both men and women they're just called actors.
 
It's hilarious how some people think that the whole world is about them...

Jordan Poole Unhappy About Move To Wizards Bench
FEB 23, 2024 8:23 AM

Washington Wizards interim head coach Brian Keefe made his first big lineup change since taking over. Keefe moved Jordan Poole to a bench role, after Poole had started the first 52 games he played this season.

When asked about the lineup change, Poole let it be known he's not happy with it.

"If there’s any common sense, with the situation, you should know how I feel. But I’m just going to come out, do what I can do to help the team, keep it moving," Poole said.

The veteran guard added "I mean, if this is a way to try to get me on ball, I guess that’s just what we have to do."

Just noticed Wemby was an assist short of a 5x5 last night. I believe the last player to get one was Nurkic a few years ago. His was the first 20/20 5x5 ever.
 
Spurs guards can't shoot, 35% FG. The Lakers scratched out a win. Coach Ham won't get fired tomorrow.
 
Cameron Payne's best shooting night in 2 months. Cavs fall to the Sixers
 
2 games had chippy grabby pushy scuffles. I don't think anyone will get suspended.

I saw that Thunder waived Aleksej Pokuševski. 7’ forward. I’d love for Blazers to give him a feeler. Waive Moses

100%. When we shut Deandre down within the next few games we should sign Poku and play him a bunch with Bari and Duop. Honestly tonight/last night should have been the last game for Jerami and by the time we play the Hornets again on April 3rd Ant should be resting his whatever for the rest of the season.

The tank needs to be on and until Scoot and Shae get back, we should feature Poku and figure out if he's worth signing for next season.

I'm assuming OKC waived him because he's an injury magnet who can't stay healthy and has been a terrible shooter when he has been healthy enough to play. Seems that i f the Blazers want another bad shooter (why?), there are plenty to choose from without going after another injury-prone big

Yeah it’s not like the Blazers have the luck like the Spurs who can pick up an often injured player (Collins) and get quality minutes out of him. We in Blazerland don’t do that sort of thing.

And then he got one the very next night - meaning he was one assist away from doing in back to back games what practically no player has done ever. (And almost certainly if he had less inept teammates he would've got that assist.)

Trying VERY HARD not to imagine us winning the lottery last year, thinking about how close we came to having a team with a chance for the first time in decades.

We had to save all that toradol for Trent. What might have been....
