Guess who was spotting leaving lunch in NYC on Thursday afternoon? Hint: She is a very popular model..
It’s Chanel Iman! The 18 year-old model can been seen walking down various runways across the world. Most recently she was photographed in the highly talked about Black Model Issue of Vogue Italia.

This girl is on her way to the top. She’s not as striking(to me) as all the hype.
I thought if was Cassie. Luv the dress. But I cant do cowboy boots in the summer(eyes roll).
When I’m in the club in the winter w/ the high boots on tryna be cute. I dont like the sticky feeling it gives out. It like your legs are a phat suit.
But whateva.
P.s. Luv the dress

I don’t know who this chick is, but what I will never understand about this industry is why those designers always pic women that are not the average size? That has never made sense to me. You’d think that they would have women that were curvy, not fat, curvey there’s a difference. Who are they actually trying to sell their cloths too…or are they? :/

She aint that skinny!! If yall dont knock it the fuck off. Coming from someone who is just a bit bigger than her, its so funny how we’re only soooooooooo skinny 2 the ppl who are fat as heLL. Maybe since we’re almost the same size she doesnt look all that THIN to 2 me. Instead taking about how she should eat maybe yo ass should lay off the cheeseburgers n catch up!!!!!! Im sure your one cheeseburger away from tipping the scale!!!!

Oh, and I love how she’s standing in the third picture. Her face looks fresh, and she just looks so modelish. It’s not hard to see why she’s so in demand, ’cause she captures what a model ’should’ be.
I live for Chanel Iman.

wow…. I hope she doesn’t fall over holding that bag it looks heavier then she is… she is a size 0 and boney. I’m a shapely size 4.. not everyone that thinks someone is skinny is fat…..
I’m sure she isn’t worried about being skinny or anyone calling her skinny she knows she is skinny and she is getting paid to be just that tall beautiful and skinny thus the average runaway model…. they will not let another black model Tyra’s size mix it up on the runaway anymore for awhile…… so as long as her money is coming in she will remain skinny and lovin it…
lol… #20 funny! I thought it was Jaslene also….
#23 tell us how you really feel…lol…

What are the exact measurements to be a high fashion model? You must be shaped like a pre-pubecent boy? That is NOT the bidness. Not hating on Chanel at all hell, if you have to be 5′ 7″ and weigh 75 pounds to make it big then so be it!

Wow Tyra. Sounds like you are very INSECURE about your small size. I’m a very nice size 8, and am 5′7. I love my size, and many guys- black, white, hispanic, pacific, etc- find it extremely attactive as well. My point is that I’m not fat, yet I also agree that this girl should eat something. It is not my belief that God intended for anyone to be skin and bones. She doesn’t look healthy at all. No one is hatin on her cuz her looks are not worth the envy.

Unfortunately, I just saw Rihanna leaving Fred Seagal, so Chanel should pick another day…and another profession. Go back and check out Rihanna in that fourth pic. She’s the real Iman, high fashion, best of show! Okay, I know she’s only 18, but Ri is not much older!

No offense to the girl but she aint even that pretty. She looks like a busted ashlee banks lol! And her legs look really scary skinny. Im skinny myself, but even I have some meaght on my thighs. If you go on youtube and type “thinspiration” you will see she looks just like a anarexic girls dream body yuck! And why is Kanye, a grown azz 30 somethin yr old man getting with a barely legal young girl? Now Im not trying to be a prude but when ur 18 U are just starting, she aint a real adult yet.

@ 9, 20, 31 You guys are too funny! I love CL.
She’s cute in the face and she’s fly as hell, but she’s a bone. She’s the one who was in Tianna’s recent post, the one with no thighs.
This is not what a model should be. This is sending the wrong message to young women.”If you’re anorexic looking than you’re beautiful, and you’ll look good in our line of clothing”. That look is actually ugly and sick to most people, unless you’re a white or asian guy.

# 34….maybe I should model, thats not a bad idea at all
What Im saying is that yes she is Thin but its not to the point where she looks sick. (this is a personal opinion here) Keep in mind in order to be a run way model you do have to be thin.
SHE IS EXACTLY WHAT A MODEL SHOULD LOOK LIKE! Period!
Now about those cheeseburgers….I do eat TheM! As a matter of fact, I eat them all the time and cant seem to gain a pound….but Im sure u wouldnt know anything about that right?
Anywho…..
#37(SweetPea)
Dont take this the wrong way but if your naturally a size 3 there is no way you can be VERY INSECURE about that. So just some advice 4 u…Dont be mad @ me cuz Im beautiful & Petite! Be mad cuz all of America wants a body like mine and not like swine! God didnt intend for everyone to be skin and bones but it is very possible for someone to naturally be that way and thats something that u need 2 understand…..

DESIGNERS LIKE STICK THIN MODELS (AT LEAST HIGH FASHION) OTHER URBAN DESIGNERS USE MORE AVERAGE SIZED WOMEN. SHE IS DOING HER THANG WITH JOURDAN DUNN AND ARLENIS AND WE NEED TO SUPPORT HER. ANYWAY SOME PEOPLE LIKE MY LIL SIS ARE THAT SKINNY ANYWAY EVEN IF THEY EAT 10 BURGERS. MY LIL SIS EATS US OUT OF HOUSE AND HOME AND IS TIIINY!

I think it works both ways. People have no problem calling others fat. I say if you’re too fat, or too skinny…then you just are. This girl is way too skinny by most people’s standards. Yes, runaway models have to be thin…but not this thin. And there is nothing natural about someone’s legs who look to be around the same size as a 7 year old little girl’s. It’s the same as a 350 pound person who says it’s “natural”..yeah, ok?!

Im not quick to call people too skinny. Im about 135 pounds and a size 6 and even with my thick ass thighs black folks have called me too skinny so I agree with the girl that alot of times its fat people who are always calling people too skinny cause the reality is im at medium frame for my height but this girl is nowhere near 135 pounds and looks less than a size zero. With that being said, Im still not gonna hate on her and say she needs to eat a hamburger because I SERIOUSLY doubt she cant help being that slim. I also saw her on Tyra. Personally, I dont find her attractive though facially so to me it doesn’t matter about her body but to each her own. Its good that girls that are stick thin can find an avenue where their body type is supported and praised. I know thats not a popular opinion but the realty is not all models are anorexic or everyone who is that thin. Alot of people simply cant help it and they have a right to feel beautiful as well. Im sick of white folks saying you just have to be really skinny to have a nice body but I’m also sick of black folks saying you just HAVE to be thick. I just find it odd that everyone thinks everyone is suppose to be the same size and that God cant simply have made people with variety of shapes even stick thin people that eat like a pig and still stay that size.
#75 candy girl, you said no black girl you know wants to be skin and bones but its really a shame that you assume all black women have to have the same body type. I also find it odd that so many women comment on other women’s bodys even more so then men do. Men do not go on and on about another man being too skinny or too thick or what have you unless they are gay. Women already feel pressured enough to look a certain way for men. Its a damn shame that we also feel more pressure from the females. It all comes from DEEP insecurity as women. I use to be like that but I grew out of it. Now if I saw someone her size on the street or a heavy girl on the street, I no longer give a damn enough to even make a negative comment.

Some women are naturally skinny because of their metabolism. I am naturally thin as I’m 15 and a size 0-1 and 5′6 but that is NATURALLY as i am as i actually eat like a horse. My mum and dad were both naturally think when they were younger so me and my brothers are all thin. Being think doesn’t mean you are anorexic. Don’t forget, she is tall so the weight would be spread out more. If she was around 5′4, she would look average sized so there is NOTHING wrong with her. Also, the perception that black women should be thick is very stereotyped. It make people like me think that we could never get a black man because our shape is not desired and that is wrong. All women come in ALL shapes and sizes. I am fully black, but that is just how i naturally am and i am sore that is how she naturally is. She is model anyway so that is what they all are like. I am thinking of modelling.

OKAY! I don’t care what you say…this chick is SKINNY! (AND that’s okay if that’s what she likes.) Since she is not that cute, it must be her size that helps with her modeling career. This is just sending the wrong message to the younger women who think they have to look like this. I bet you in a few months/years, we will find out that she is anorexic.

wow she is thin but not too thin if ya ask me but I dont think its from her not eating though..me myself Im pretty tall (5′8 at 16) and I know that its not that easy to gain weight like someone said before..it does spread out (not always evenly though cus Im getting a slight muffin top but whatever) I think some folks think shes super thin cus she black and other people touched on it earlier not all black girls thick and some of them do just look naturally thin people joke and call me anorexic and thin but puhleez if only they saw the scale..j/k j/k anyway she aint ugly cus shes super thin..shes ugly jut cus shes ugly..wel shes not ugly but she aint too cute

She’s prety but small isn’t even the right word for her. Congrats to her success. You know fashion moguls believe that a size 0 is hawt but she’s looks sickly if you ask me. There’s small & petite & then there is the image in the pic. It sends out the wrong signal. In order for some to be successful you have to be under weight b/c that is definitely what this girl is. & I’m not hating just stating the obvious.

Well I am a size 2 (size ranging 0-4 in different stores/brands) and 5′5″ and considered very thin…it makes me so angry to hear people constantly telling skinny women to eat. For most normal skinny women its called …TA DA genetics. Personally my father is over 6 feet tall and thin and my mother has had 5 children and still weighs less than 135 and she is 5′1″…so where would I get off being thick and curvy?? quite possibly with age BUT for now since i’m young…skinny is what it is…learn FACTS before telling one to EAT! Its not her fault she’s smart enough to use her situation for her own benefit…you would prolly do the same if you were her…
