Excuse me, are you that Top model?

Any one who's ever dabbled in modelling before and who isn't caucasian ( note, I am not here to start a racial backlash or anything ok? C'mon! Mr O is Mr President now ya know?) , will know that the fashion industry has a general bias towards the Arian faces and pretty much leave out cold the black/ethnic looks.

So it's little wonder that some of the new black-and-beautiful models out there are , even with 'all the potential in the world' (quoting Tyra), still need a leg-up .

Well, the best way to attempt being the next Iman, Naomi Campbell and Tyra Banks is to at least start by having names that sound like theirs.

Their name-sakes are so glaringly emulative that I need no even bother mentioning who their childhood heros were.

Observe: Top model Niomie Lenoir


Observe: Supermodel Selita Ebanks



Observe: Top model Chanel Iman




So what's in a name?

Judging from the success of these new girls-on-the-runway-block, lots.


Q

(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.

Babe, U can't touch this.

Fantasy Angel ain't a Butterfly

Miss Mariah married her Ex barely 6 months

after she was nearly Mrs Cannon herself, Supermodel Selita Ebanks (a.k.a Tyra Bank's replacement Victoria's Secret Angel).

Here with the annual multi-million dollar Fantasy Angel Bra (2007).

Mr. Cannon can never afford that.

You can Touch Mariah's Body, but you can't touch her's.


Q

Loose Cannon?

I could be Real Nice and wish Miss Carey a happy and fulfilling marriage to Rapper/Actor Nick Cannon.

But I'd rather be Real.

I cannot condone the reality that this here is a possible tree-barker and skirt-chaser.

It's mighty tempting to marry a gorgeous and famous being like Mariah and if he grew up a huge fan (he is after all a full decade younger) , it's a bigger bonus.

Riding on her fame (and possibly wealth, too) is ...Priceless.

Just months before he 'hooked up' with Mariah, he was boink-ing and engaged to Supermodel Selita Ebanks.

She left the him for obvious reasons.

(Selita and Nick; happier times)
Big enough a hint to Miss Doggie Whistle, if it ain't already obvious right from the start.

PS: Seriously, hasn't MC learn t from the epic fiasco of Whitney and Bobby?

Q

HOT Chocolate

Black is V-Beautiful.

.... NO. ^^

BLACK IS GORGEOUS !!!!

Of course I could rave about the expected Supermodels like Tyra , Naomi, Alek ,Iman, Donayale, Beverly, Grace, Waris, Katoucha, Kimora, Selita and Oluchi. Or their male counterparts like Tyson and Djimon.

***
But I just wanna rave about deep and luscious EBONY skin, perfect bone structures and shining personality.

Check these Goddesses out. :)

Gimme HOT CHOCOLATE ... anytime. ^^
