She is black and from Detroit. She's beautiful, but I don't find her different(from other blackmodels) if you will. Honestly,I really don't understand these kinda comments.

No need to get defensive, I just never knew if she was 100% black. I wasn't comparing her to other black models I just think her look is unique in the general sense. I think she's beautiful and if I offended you I'm sorry that you took it that way.

I'm not offended, I just answered & pointed something out. If you didn't mean any harm, why get bothered Luna.

Hah, well I do plan to go into advertising and/or other print(mags & books). So you know I will try to bring some light to issues,including blackmodels.
