Naima is America’s Next Top Model!
CVK
Yay!!! Naima won America’s Next Top Model last night! It was nice to hear her acknowledge her mixed heritage in the episode. After realizing she’d won the competition, she said something along the lines of, “I know that I represent more than just this. I represent a black girl. I represent a Mexican girl. I’m part Irish. I’m everything.” So what does she get? A contract with Ford Models, a $100,000 US contract from Cover Girl, and a spread in Elle magazine.

I’m sorry. I know her intentions were good but I dont feel that she represents me as a Black woman. She represents mixed women. Point blank. If your mixed your mixed. If your black your black. So no she does not represent black girls in my opinion. You cant have it both ways. If you see your self as mixed then you are not representative of Black people.
