No, but the two women are faking a lesbian relationship for one inane reason or another (watch the trailer), so that is why they are dressed like "stereotypical" lesbians.

No. She plays a straight girl in real life. This role must be a breeze for her.

lol

However:

I've said it before and I'll say it again: Alicia strikes me as simply a slightly butch straight woman. They do exist, you know.

I saw the film today (complete rubbish - Alicia was the best thing about it; I don't like her music much, but I LOVE her), and she does indeed play a gay assassin. Common (the next thing about it - yeah, it really is THAT bad) ends up carrying her out of harm's way at the end - with a suggestion that they could possibly wind up as lovers after the credits roll, but, you know, the film's so fucking dreadful you really don't give a flying fuck one way or another. Film's over. Thank God! NEXT!

There are three sides to every story. My side, your side, and the truth. And no one is lying. Memories shared serve each one differently
