2023 Fictitious Athlete Hall of Fame - Round 1

Jesminder "Jess" Bhamra

TV Show/Movie Appeared: Bend it Like Beckham (2002)
Actor/Actress: Parminder Nagra
Position Portrayed: Striker
Played For:: Hounslow Harriers
Why you should vote:: She was the star of a very good (and underrated) sports film.
Why you should not vote:: Keira Knightley would become the overall star in Hollywood. NOT the one who bended it like Beckham.
As the lead character in “Bend it Like Beckham”, Jesminder Bhamra crossed gender and racial lines and gave us what was overall a very good film; and not just one of athletic accomplishments. Indirectly, this is more of a coming of age female flick than a sports one, so should that matter? We will let you decide on that one.
