Before Naomi Campbell bashed her first assistant, before Tyra Banks donned her first lace front, before Roshumba graced us with her natural, and before models like Veronica Webb, Rihanna , and Iman (yes, even Iman), we had Beverly Johnson. She was the first African American Supermodel to grace American Vogue Magazine. Her work paved the way for other African American models. She has appeared in many movies such as "Ashanti," "Meteor Man," "How to be a Player," and she has also been on many T.V. shows. As of late, she has served as a celebrity judge on "She's Got the Look."
After modeling, Beverly too went into business and became a big success. Beverly has a wig line, and you would be hard pressed to go into a beauty supply shop today without finding her modeling one of her creations on a wig tag, shelf display or poster.
Her stunning looks are admired worldwide, and her elegance is unsurpassed.

Isn't she gorgeous? Now that's a supermodel! (Joe used to love him some damn Roshumba!)
She is stunning.
Hey there! She is most definitely stunning. I love this post about her...I commend you for watching the AMAs, I turned after that nauseating performance by the Pussycat Dolls. Oh, and my I can see why people mistake you for Jill Scott. Wow! I've only been told that I look like Chris Webber's sister (before glasses), which can really piss a girl off, LOL!
I love that your husband threw in his two sense :-)
She is gorgeous!
yep. beautiful woman.
great post.
I some how missed the outcome of "She's Got the Look", I just remember that one lady Tonya, who you can also find in all of those darn flat iron/hair straightener infomercials.
Great post.
@T.A.M. Well at least Joe didn't like an ugly woman.
@Jennifer yes, that performance was quite nauseating, what does Chris Webber's sis look like, I'll have to look that up. Don't encourage my hubby's chatter over here.
@Ms. Bar.B., I actually saw the finale of that show and have forgetten who won. Se how important is was.
