I personally think she is saying this enuinely, not for herself...She has a billionaire by herside and her money too...she is always wanted for ads and runways...

She is just trying to make way for other black models...

I agree with you.. i a model my self, and sometimes you go to the castings the desingers just don't even look at you! It's so sad,, they prefer a fat white laday above a tall skinny black girls... It's not the agency but the designers they do have contorol over their SHOW,, i think black poeple should not bye the clothes from the designers who do not use black models on their RUNWAYS!!!

Damn this is so sad, only because we are beautiful.. pathetic!!!!!

Yes, it needs to be said.....over and over again until things change. There are so many beautiful women of every color, however, certain magazines tend to use only the European or caucasian models. Please dont misunderstand; they are beautiful too, however, to purchase a glossy and not see not ONE model of color is sad. I've cancelled my subscriptions to those magazines that seem to refuse to showcase models of color; black models in particular.

Granted some black models are not offered ad campaigns - or cosmetic contracts - but at least the editors of magazines could feature them throughout their pages! But alas, no.

Perhaps one day, but I guess not today. So if you're as fed up as I was and am. Cancel your subscriptions and do not purchase A V (although I do love Anna!) or W. Elle is or was somewhat better in featuring models of color. I remember when they featured Alek Wek on the cover! What a glorious day.
