African Pride: Essence Magazine 40th Anniversary Cover

Essence magazine just turned 40!  40 years of a great body of work!!  For their 40th anniversary issue, they got supermodels Iman, Liya Kabede & Naomi Campbell to grace the cover.
It's great to see two African supermodels on the iconic cover.  This is one not to miss!!  Pick-up the mag from the newstands ladies!!

Iman: Supermodel, Founder & CEO of Iman Cosmetics

Liya Kabede: Ethiopian Supermodel & Face of Estee Lauder Cosmetics

Iman is uber fab at 55!!!  Goes to show you that good black don't crack!!

Honorary mention:  The fab Michelle Obama who's also featured in the mag.

Poor Little Rich Girl...

Trouble seems to be her middle name!! If she's not being charged for her ridiculous anger outbursts and subsequent actions it's another thing coming.  Naomi Campbell took the witness stand last Friday in the trial against Liberia's former President Charles Taylor for blood diamonds she allegedly received as a gift 13 years ago. Last we saw her on the Oprah Winfrey show, girlfriend totally evaded the topic on the diamonds.  Good luck lying evading that while under oath!!  One thing we can be certain of is that she will be dressed to impress for court in the latest designer duds. Paparazzi better be on alert for my benefit.
