Naomi Campbell in a Sea of White People


Supermodel Naomi Campbell is one of the few black models who consistently work. But we're sure she was looked over for many jobs because of her skin color.

So, Naomi is taking this time to talk about discrimination in the modeling world.

She tells the German edition of Glamour Magazine:

“You know, the American President may be black, but as a black woman, I am still an exception in this business....I always have to work harder to be treated equally. In the past, there were more opportunities for black models but the trend towards blond women has again become extreme. In magazines, on the catwalk, I see blond, blue-eyed models everywhere.”
