You think Wesley Snipes requested that the chicks be Asian in the pool scene in New Jack City?

I read somewhere he requested his wives be Asian in other movies so I'm guessing yes

Above the fray.
The film that he requested the character's wife be Asian was One Night Stand. I remember the backlash, his imdb page has the exact quote he made about his request for the film, but they don't list the source.

The Asian women in that NJC scene were whores. Snipes admires/worships Asian women so I don't think he would have requested them for that role, nor did I think he had the pull back then to make casting requests.

It always seemed coincidental to me that he had a thing for Asian chicks and those chicks in that scene just so happen to be Asian :jbhmm:
Then again I was high when I made this thread:jbhmm:
