Is naomi campbell a good representation of black beauty?

Do not get me wrong, Naomi Campbell has opened the doors for many other black aspiring models and has made an awareness of black models in the media, but then I wonder is it because her agency, manager etc have given her this european look with the 'long hair' and 'colored eyes'? is that not hiding her identity as a black woman? I feel as if to be a successful black model, you need to look as if your white? please I really want to hear what you think?Is naomi campbell a good representation of black beauty?
i don't like the way naomi looks, and i don't think they tried to hide her identity. i am european and i don't have long hair and ';colored eyes';, and i don't think you have to look as if you're white. but i will never understand why people think she's so pretty.Is naomi campbell a good representation of black beauty?
To tell the truth, you don't need look white to be successful model. You know there one dark dark black girl who's from Sudan and she's successfully is working in Europe and around the world. She is a star and beautiful with her very black skin and hair.


In my reason, there are lot black girls who pretend to be white by wearing weaves, wigs and this creams/foundations to be more lighter. If I was black I would be myself and not pretend be someone else.


Consider that God made you in imagine of him and you should not immitate a girl as Naomi Campbell, Michael Jackson or white people who in truth (no offence) look the same.
She is a good example of the idealized african american not to mention the anger issues. She has suffered to stay afloat in an industry that praises self inflicted prisons. Certain attitudes are changing and are becoming more reflective of reality as more african americans become successful. Real Women arent the exception any more.
For a black woman to succeed in what is basically a racist industry is something but she needs to chill out.


Your remark about looking white is racist also.


If you go on safari to South Africa should you try to look black?


Her identity as a black woman is her skin
naomi even with out all the hair and the contacts would still be considered a beautiful woman, but we all buy into idealized beauty not just the models all celebrities and it makes us feel we need to look like that to be beautiful when we all are different and beautiful in our own way.
Naomi knows what she's doing..When she started, if she had had a kinky beautiful from (which she was born with) no one would have given her the attention...I personally wish she could rock her own hair and whatnot but then again most if not all female white celebrities wear weaves and contacts so why not her...
she is quite stunning but i feel that too. when i look at black hair magazines all i see are staight styles and if there are braids its a weave. lots of black girls in my school have green contacts and blonde or red weaves. i think india arie is a good example of black beauty
idk, but why havent they locked her up already?!
she looks like a white girl with a really good tan
whore
