(Almost) The neXt Tyra Banks

My new favourite model-of-the-moment. But is Ebanks the next Banks?


She became the second black model in history to become a Victoria's Secret Angel.

She had the arduous task of filling the big stilettos of uber Supermodel Tyra Banks.

Few believed she could.

But since then, she's been going from strength to strength.


She was in the headlines for being the first fiancee of, the now-husband-to Mariah Carey, Nick Canon. (a.k.a A**hole playeur)

She went on to become the Angel selected to wear the crown jewel of the annual Victoria's Secret fashion show , the annual Fantasy Angel Bra , which is made of millions of diamonds and costs even more. (Above; in the 2008 show)

She's become more stunning than ever . And even though there's still a long way to go before she's really the next Tyra Banks (that waits to be seen) ,
she's definitely one of the most high profile black Supermodels of the NEXT generation.


Yes, there are the new black models like Chanel Iman, Niomie Lenoir and the likes out there.

But few have come along and matched the media-darling hype that the Naomi Campbells, Tyra Banks, Oluchis, Alek Weks and Wasames of yore could achieve.


Q...... Indeed a resounding , yes, remember her name . Supermodel Selita Ebanks.
