I love the last picture she looks great.

She kind of has an Alek Wek feel to me but much much more feminine. Where has she gone though? She was a favorite, but it seems like I haven't seen her lately.

love Oluchi for the record Naomi campbell isn't African like you stated^ she isn't american either so she can't be classified as african american. I belive she is british.

yeah, she's beautiful, but where has she been though?

She is doing Cover Girl and Victoria Secerts

Now that's what I call a POUT!

She's stunning!! Quite versatile...

i oluchi... such a wonderful body, a lovely face, an all around excellent model, although a bit underused

[fouroclock]

some people think her face tends to the commercial side, though

[modelgig]

Oluchi is definitely one of my all time favorite models and still is. She is so versatile, thats why I love her. she has got gorgeous eyes too, and those killer cheekbones. I am happy she is doing Victoria secrets as she has being very visible in VS print and television ad campaigns.

I doubt she is doing covergirl though, i checked the CG website and Kiara Kabukuru and Eva(ANTM 3 winner) are the ones listed

That purple hued Lancome ad looks like Georgianna Robinson, not Oluchi. Are you sure it's her?

I would have to agree- I do not think Oluchi has ever done anything with CG- you might have her mistaken for Kiara.

As for work- I really dont think she is looking for work too hard, she 's probably fine with being a bit low-key but she is a reg. model for LUCA LUCA (thats her BF)

OLUCHI ONWEAGBA
Birth country: Nigeria
Oluchi Onweagba's sensual face, perfect figure and infinitely long legs have helped her to the top of the fashion league, where she's modelled for everyone from Gianfranco Ferre to Gap.

Oluchi has come a long way since 1998, when, as a young 16-year-old she scooped the M-Net "Face Of Africa" contest. "I never thought I would be on a plane, I had no idea I would leave my mum, leave Lagos," says Oluchi, who was discovered selling bread on the streets of Lagos. "It happened all of a sudden."

"Face Of Africa" earned the 6ft 2in catwalk star � one of five children born to a nurse and a civil servant � a three-year, $150,000 modelling contract with Elite. And she's also set new standards for what's sexy in fashion. "I think I reflect a lot of African beauty," she says. "I am African. And I am beautiful."
