Chanel Iman

I know this has been mentioned before, but Chanel said she was biracial, no? But her mother, in the picture, looks about Chanel's complexion and I always think it's her that's biracial. I guess she could just have a dark complexion for an Asian.

i only think she is biracial cuz her sister liooks atmost half asian, many asians like to tan , and she told me herself---i am biracial. my mother is korean, my dad is african-american

basically, while chanel could pass as more black, her little sistef is very fair with pretty straight hair----and just very asian looking...

People come in all shades and colors regardless of race.Chanel's african features may be more dominant than her asian features but that does not mean that shes not biracial.

i think its cuz many Koreans have tan skin, curly hair, and brader/flatter features---just like american blacks. i don't see her as lookig more eithway as she could never pass as just asian or as a full-blooded african. i am just hapopy to see an ethnic model excelling , not to mention she is sooo cute!!

She has such a great smile

But my question was in regards to Chanel's mother's race, based on appearance, not Chanel. But the question has been answered.

I find her cute but not beautiful.
