I CAN’T BELIEVE YALL STILL ON COLOR. WTF WHY IS BLACK PPL STILL GETTING SEPARATE SPREADS IN MAGAZINES. DAMN I THOUGHT WE WAS PAST THIS. OUR PRESIDENT IS BLACK DAMN QUIT SEPARATING US FROM THE REST. IF U INTO FASHION U WILL KNOW THAT BLACK MODELS ARE USUALLY DARK SKINNED AND THEY ARE VERY SUCCESSFUL IN THE FASHION INDUSTRY. WE DON’T HAVE TO KEEP PINPOINTING EVERY DAMN THING.

@ 2….

What the hell does a black last name “sound” like? There are probably more black people with last names like Sosa and Lopez than with names like Smith and Jackson. Do the research boo!

@12 Who the hell even uses the word “redbone” anymore? They have being video hoes on lock lol. It’s damn near then end of 2009, there’s a black man in the White House and so many black people still stuck on this color crap! You should be ashamed of yourself degrading your own kind like that. Brandon, assuming you’re black, what color is the woman who gave birth to you? Epic Fail dude.

I’m not gonna waste time on the black/Hispanic stuff either…I see others on here have explained it already.

Damn some of you African Americans are truly and deeply i-g-n-o-r-a-n-t!!!!!
Im black British and Im proud, Thank God my Grandad didnt set up home in the States,
some of you have no concept of culture, and truly cursed with what happened back in slavery days, why dont you all move on for once. You really need to travel the world and see how your Black cousins and relatives are living here in Europe, and then you will understand how silly your ignorance is. And that comment about red bones having it on lock, what foolishness, I ve learnt that there are many black people in particular black men that dont like being black, and like to degrade those that love their black, Brown , chocolate skin.
If you hater being black then do a Michael Jackson and bleach your skin!

These are all LOVELY ladies of AFRICAN descent. Hello, my fellow African Americans, only 5% of the African slaves went to North America. 95% went to the Caribbean and Latin America so there are FAR more persons of African descent with Portuguese and S panish surnames.

I live in Rio half the year. Brazil has seven times the number of black folks than the US - which is why I live there half the year. We really do nned to travel more as AAs and see the world and you will be shocked at how MANY black folks there are on planet earth compared to the one or two in the United States. It’s a very “freeing” experience as a black person living in Brazil a few months out of the year to be the MAJORITY for once.

desired and rebecca you really are very ignorant! I just recently found this out myself, earlier this year, but Hispanic is not a RACE! LATINO is not a race! All hispanics are of mixed race. I do think that the US who categorized them did a poor job of it! They have Afro Cuban, Afro Puerto Rican… which are black people who were born/raised in a spanish speaking country, but yet WTF are people like Jennifer Lopez considered? You think of her and Pitbull as being Latino because a large amount of Latinos do have a smiliar look to them, but Latinos comes in different races. They say most of them are white.. which can be true, but if they are white… why do they have a distinctive look that fits the “latino” look? I think that since the tribes “Indians” were the first ones/native of many Spanish speaking countries… those are the REAL “Latinos” like many Mexicans. Any other race/ethnicity born in the country should be considered White Latino, Black Latino, Chinses Latino… get my drift

Anyway, I’m glad to see my girl Channel Iman doing it big, but I don’t think this cover is flattering to them. WTF did they make them all the same dark color? Black people come in different skin tones.
