No, silly! Sepia answered LilFlips question, #298 , which ironically is almost identical. And LilFlip was banned. So now I am confused...

You are an awful lot like him though... you post in the same threads and the same things.

And can you keep the ANTM things out of this thread? Eva is NO WHERE near a top Black model.

You know it MakeUp! BTW, Sepia read the question first & replied and I added to the girls she named, so it was answered. And of course I've been posting the successful black models/topmodels/Supermodels from like every decade since the late 50s here. So the answer is here in photos & in words at least before the last 3 pages or so.

One of my favorite ads of Liya's. Estee Lauder should use her more.

They were in print(ads & layouts)a good amount and of course on the runways. You could see them alot in Elle especially from like 1988-91 and they had a cover or two(no more than 20). They were managed by Bethann if I remember correctly.
