Kiara Kabukuru

[KhaoticKharma]

I'm very suprised she dosen't have a thread- she was very popular on the runway and in campaigns in the late 90's, and still does alot of editorials. Anyone know what agency she's repped by in the US now?

Kiara is pretty cool, she was hot in the mid/late 90's. Here are a set of favs. Photo Souce:scanned by me

YAY! I have been bumped!

It is a real shame how Kiara came out the same time as Maggie Rizer, Erin O'Conner, Karen Elson, and Angela Lindvall- but at the same time, these girls are still getting loads of work, while you hardly ever see Kiara anymore.

Does anyone know what she's up to now?

The last time I heard her in the news was a couple years ago, b/c she was hit by a person on a bike; she broke some bones. She's still in Covergirl tv ads and I saw her on the 3rd or 4th season of ANTM. It seems when girls get contracts they stop working as hard, it's the extra money. However, it's not fair to compare her to Maggie and the others in amount of work b/c the business is not fair, frankly race plays a key factor.

She is. I also saw her in an ad for Talbots in this Nov. Elle.

Kiara has since gained some weight too, maybe that's another reason why she isn't working much. I've also seen her in recent VS catalogues.

Great photos. But Kiara has a more of a fuller face than this girl.

^^SimplyLovely, if you're a woman of color you should know the answer to that one. I've more lesser established models than Kira covered on this site as if they were Diamonds. You should know what types they are. Anyway...
