And she has the longest legs ever!

i think Oluchi is so stunning, one of the most beautiful black women ever...so sad to see someone of her calibur go away so quickly.

I was asking because the only thing i see her do really now is VS & SI if anything

I actually met Coco in the street, she has the type of features that when you see her in person she can stop you in your tracks.

I couldn't agree with you more! So small that the youngest black models (Chanel & Jourdan) getting the most work at the moment have to be either be compared to or contrasted to all the time. Its really annoying! Like I said in another thread I hope these girls become the best of friends and not another Tyra and Naomi. I can see them working together to change the discrimination (Like Naomi is doing) in the fashion industry. Only time will tell.
