IMAN - How I Was Discovered: Fashion Icon 

With help from plastic surgery yes.

@@motosana1 No

@@thinkbeforeyoutype7106 You know nothing about her history so think before you type.

Agreed Anthony

@@motosana1 how dare you even entertain the thought of even trying to insult Ahman

K A B E L T E L E P O N becoz she’s beautiful

Surgery helps.

@@motosana1 She is beautiful without surgery! You sound jealous

@@sxm76 Oh geez. Initially, I was going 2 say money helps.& I suppose 'IF" that included a few nips & tucks, private trainer, personal dietitian etc, Why not? Yes, she is beautiful, but money helps you maintain that beauty. You must look @ it realistically/. Pull out your photos of when u were in your 20's & do comparisons of every 10 yrs. Now imagine how differently those aging photos would look if you had money 2 really take care of u.

@@Autumn-Mist But that goes without being said. Just let the compliment ride. It's a female thing where you undermine the compliment by saying "she's only that beautiful because she had surgery or she has money". Just let the comment ride. She is beautiful. That's something ya'll do and can't resist.

But in 1975 how can the tuition be $8000????? Today the cost close to that sum

@@dellagool4869 probably in Kenya shillings.

@@winniew6742 she said dollars

toni bee you are sooo beautiful too dia

kate kanini iman is Somali stupid.She has identity.

Fun base she’s black....somalis consider themselves black. atleast i do.

@@ahmedazad1154 All sub saharan africans have an identity and are black .

@@ahmedazad1154 black is the race. Somali is the nationality

@@sarahdaniel9912black isn't a race, Somalis carry e1b1b y dna and don't share any genetic relations with congoid africans for over 50,000 years, Somali is an ethnicity, a nationality, language, culture, and our race is Cushite or Hamite, which is a real race based on dna, archeology, linguistics, ancestral origin, anthropology, culture, etc

No such thing as black people. We are not pencil colours thank you.

@iman Thank you for replying in a kind manner (something that seems to be rare in this day and age on the net when it comes to differences of opinions). My point is that we are the ones who actually create our reality sister. Learn the power of your mind, and bring into reality a world that you want to inhabit. Everything is energy, including your thoughts. Hence what you think actually has a profound impact on your life.

Most Somalis are part Yemeni. Yemenis are Arabs, and Arabs are Caucasians. She happens to have the best features of both worlds (black and Arabs).

@@whitepaper5241 Lol did you say Arabs Caucasians lol.

@@yesqueen8635 skeletal level yes they are caucasoid. I think youre mistaking their skin color and type. They are the earliest/primitive caucasoid hence theyre abit diff from the europeans which are modern caucasoid. Even some in european country still retains some of yhis primitive caucasian look eg italy greeks etc

@@DemoCoverUploader lol if you say so lol😂😂😂

Your comment seems coded. What does it mean to be a different race of Black. What does it mean to have melanin that, "works in your favor?"

Comrade Anatoly Dyatlov her family were one of the people that helped win the independence, so they didn’t feel happy seeing their dream of a free Somalia destroyed.

she explained. she was a child. her mother was the one who felt moving to kenya was the safest for her family.

Her father was part of the government at the time of the coupe by Siad Barre. They saw the assassination of government officials and thought Iman's father was next, so they fled.

Each generation stands on the shoulders of the generation before. Black and colored models in the "WWW (White Western World) "go way back of course, even long before Iman. I think Tyra Banks certainly was among the trailblazers of her generation, just as many other Black models before and after her were trailblazers, like Donyale Luna, Beverly Johnson, Pat Cleveland, Grace Jones, Mounia, Naomi Sims, Naomi Campbell, Waris Dirie, Khadija, Louise Vyent, Alek Wek, just to name a few from different generations. With their different personalities some are more modest than others, e.g. Tyra Banks.

My God. I am really happy you are a *eyewitness* in her growing up and lack of struggles. *RECEIPTS OR IT DIDN'T HAPPEN* sad troll... You think you know everything about her.

what the...??

you must be kidding or trolling ...?

@@realmofthesenses no, sorry I am not trolling. That comment is from 1 year ago and at the time I was really buying into the whole celebrity transgender conspiracy thing. To be honest however, I am really not sure what to believe anymore. Best wishes to you ❤️🙏

Lool she never said it cost 8000 either dummy. She only Said that she was thinking of university payments. Btw she was not discovered in the 80s or 90s but in the Early 70s. You welcome

I asked my mom yeh you can depends on university and what your studying for

I guess it's like a situation where someone needs you for a specific job, you don't like to do it, and you just name a ridiculously high price to get rid of it, not expecting them to say yes to it anyway.

No somalian n other African girls have this timbre in their voice

His Iman, his faith ❤️

she ugly as fuck with her fake ass hair. bye...

@@TrantisionerMarin you wished you was half as beautiful as she is🤣
