Catfight Report Movie Review: The Player's Club

CATFIGHT REPORT MOVIE REVIEW
THE PLAYER'S CLUB

Fan of exotic dancers?

Wanna see some of the top black actors before they hit it big?

Then check out The Players Club (1998); a movie written and directed by Ice Cube.  It features turns by Jamie Foxx (before his Oscar turn in Ray), Bernie Mac (pre The Bernie Mac Show) and Terence Howard (prior to his stellar turn in Hustle & Flow).

The star character is Diamond, played by LisaRaye.  Diamond is a young, single mom struggling to make ends meet.  When two dancers, Ronnie and Tricks, come into the shoe shop where she is working, they convince her to make use of “what God gave you” and join them at "The Players Club", the strip joint where they work.  Diamond eventually starts to work at the club and begins making good money.  But when Diamond’s cousin is gang-raped at a party (that dancer Ronnie takes her to and abandons there)...... Diamond is out for revenge!

The big catfight is between Lisa Raye (Diamond) and Chrystale Wilson (Ronnie).

The fight that ensues in the dressing room between Diamond and Ronnie of the club is "hardly" the type of stuff that passes for a catfight these days.  Closed fists, kicks, and stomps........the kind befitting a fight between two men........ are on display here, completely dispelling the notion that women are ‘the weaker sex’.

Diamond gets her revenge as the fight is pretty much one-sided with Ronnie getting the beatdown and left in a bloody heap after a long back and forth with no interruptions!  Adding insult to injury........Ronnie is arrested post-fight for being an accessory to the aforementioned rape.

While this could hardly be called a catfight, the beating Diamond gives Ronnie is refreshing as it shows what a really pissed off woman is capable of.

Anybody think that LisaRaye would be capable of such violence in real life?

Personally, I don’t think I’d want to test the stunning Chicago native and feel the wrath one of her hard punches she throws in the film.

I would recommend this film for the outstanding fight between LisaRaye (Diamond) and Chrystale Wilson (Ronnie).

Did a Catfight take place between Hoopz of VH1's I Love Money and LisaRaye of Player's Club fame?

A website called Media Take Out is reporting the following:

They claim that they had some "snitches" who reported that a very heated confrontation ensued at a Ludacris concert in Chicago.

The website claims that Hoopz, the woman who won the $100,000 on the VH1 reality show "I Love Money", got in a heated confrontation with LisaRaye McCoy.

Does that name ring a bell?

Catfight fans will remember Lisa as the sexy lead in the movie "The Player's Club" and she whopped some massive female ass at the end of that movie!

Both of these women are very sex and look on the surface to be very tough females.

If we hear more on this story we will report it!

In the meantime.........who do you think would win?

Hoopz from "VH1's I Love Money"


OR

LisaRaye McCoy from "The Player's Club"


Who would win it?
