I’m not impressed at all.

well u dnt have to b impressed but hunny is guna get it and she betta

Sub-negro is your typical negro uo lift her and get the hell ova yo self

wow..the best part about it is that she is a dark skinned sista..even better!!!

she mad skinny, i cant stand skinny girls who be starvin theyselves to model. nobody supposed to be that dam skinny AND also be healthy…

good job tho, u need to eat tho girl, for real for real

She pretty to me…
Just need her hair combed..
And yes!!!! YES!
FINALLY!
A dark sista getting love!

hmm…congrats!!

congrats to her but she is as skinny as a stick!! she look like she is about to faint..this child needs to do something about that

Yes, she is INDEED “thin” but aren’t all runway models??? Not really news (or surprising) to me. I congratulate her on her accomplishments. What most don’t realize is her look is what sells over in European countries. The “commercial” look is used a majority of the time in the US and primarily for catalogs, video and “commercials” etc. Like honeybelow and Giggitygoogyal84 I also must applaud her on being a mahogany (don’t like to use dark skinned) sister!!! That is a beautiful thing & beauty comes in all shades :). Keep doin’ your thang!!!

SOMEONE TELL THAT B***H TO EAT A SANDWICH…LOL
JUST BECAUSE IT “SELLS” DOESN’T MAKE IT RIGHT..
NO I CONGRATULATE HER THOUGH IT’S A HUGE ACCOMPLISHMENT

I’m not even going to hate on her for being so thin, for a (CK) model, being thin is the equivalent to a doctor having a degree, its a must. What I will do is congratulate her for such a big accomplishment, and also give CK props for not choosing a model who isn’t so light as most people would do on their first black model.

my question is why are we sooooooooooo farfetched to reach the white media? hell they dont even want our business… and yet we congratulate a black….of african descent” model?
are we really that blind? if a big well world known designer picks her up we are on our way?
WHEN WILL PEOPLE REALIZE… ITS MODERN DAY SLAVERY…. WE WILL SHOWCASE HER AND MAKE MONEY?
WE WILL SHOWCASE HIM AND MAKE MONEY?
SO CONGRATS TO WHAT? BEING THE NEXT TOP PRODUCT? THE NEXT TOP BLACK ACCORDING TO THE MASTERS STANDARDS? UMMMM HOUSTON WE HAVE A SERIOUS PROBLEM!!!!

Was she the best Calvin could find bc she looks sick and a hot mess. Are you kidding me right now?

She looks kinda scared and her hair is jacked. Poor thing, I guess CK stylist don’t know how to do black hair. And I see they stuck with their starving theme, girlfriend’s collar bones look sickly. Glad for the progress, but I hope someone has given that girl a c**ktail, a new stylist, and some food!

she dont look that bad too me lol. she kinda cute. but yea a lil meat wudnt hurt ya

modeling isn’t all about looks ladies and gents, she probably one of the nicest people you can ever meet. She must have the whole package to rep CK my good folks!!!

cant see anything she has accomplished cos i think she is more of a product or tool,starving urself to death and u call that modelling…..?someone else should put that cloth on and see how it brings out the curves,cant even hug somelike her cos i might break her bones….girl u look terrifying more like my ancestors skeleton…..the hair is another problem i think she should cut it off cos it doesnt look healthy……she look so lost and scared…sorry babe

Ok some of the comments are so dumb! First of all that is not her hair its weave and it’s how they styled her! You know those runway shows try to be avant guard so they make the models look weird. And the weirder the better. I seen her in other ads and she is really pretty. Yes skinny but really pretty. Reguardless if ya’ll dont like her look she is making it in her career so I’m going to congratulate a sista….Congrats Girl!

we all watch top model and think that’s how the industry works but that’s only a small part and she was only picked cuz of her starving look
ck has never had healthy looking models they all look half dead or on drug
that’s y tyra try to change that look with her models more healthy full size beauties
i’m glad she got it just sad that she looks like a waif

Why is it that everytime an article on any site is congratulating and acknowledging a black/African American person for accomplishing something (especially being the first) people always have to respond with negative comments? It is your opinion, but why not see the postive? Let it be! This is obviously a prestigious accomplishment in the modeling industry. She might not be the average healthy and full-figured woman that most would like to see, but she is black. That is the point! This is the problem with society and the people in the black community. Someone black accomplishes something positive or productive and we always have to find a way to hate on it. (Too fat, too thin, too light, too dark, too ugly or too pretty). At the same time, I guess we need the devil’s advocates to keep goin…lol…no disrespect. We all have to do things a little more to get that accomplishment. I work at a news station with only white men and women. In my department, I’m the only the youngest, the only black (besides one of the supervisors) and one of three women. I have to work three times as hard to get the work done well and I do!!! For people who do not agree with the extra thin modeling or the fact that most models are always light skinned, they should do something about it. I am! That is exactly what Tyra is doing. That is what her show is about; showing all kinds of beauty by showing different nationalities, complexions and body shapes. I understand everyone have an opinion, but try being positive and see what the outcome will be for yourself.

Why do so many people think being Black means being fat and out of shape? I don’t know how much she weighs but she seems to fit the supermodel standard. She’s a high fashion model not an urbanwear model.

naomi_key, why are you so jealous? If she’s skinny, she’s skinny. The fashion world has always been like this from the get-go. Don’t hate because you can never be a CK model or anything else for that matter. What do you call modeling? I’m sure you don’t even know the basics of the industry. Do me a favor, stop hating, and learn how to write. P.S, “Because” is spelled “because”, not cos; that’s a mathematical term for Calculus. (Cosign)
Thanks Boo!

this girl is def starving look at her clavical it looks like a haloween skeleton.I bet she dsnt even get her monthly any more.I think its bout time we stop tryna fit into a world the white man created.
