Model Mayhem: Industry Beauties Talk the Talk & Walk the Walk

Both beauties, the International Liya Kebede(top) and US born and raised Jessica White (bottom) are making some role-model moves this year!

L’Oreal Paris announced that Liya Kebede will be joining the brand as their ambassador newbie alongside their existing fabulous spokeswomen, Beyonce and Jennifer Lopez. Kebede was born and raised in Addis, Ethiopia. A film director spotted her while she was attending school and introduced her to a French modeling agent. Kebede's big break came when Tom Ford asked her for an exclusive contract for his Gucci Fall/Winter 2000 fashion show. Her popularity in the fashion industry sky-rocketed when she appeared on the cover of the May 2002 edition of Paris Vogue, which dedicated the entire issue to her.

Jessica White, currently a spokes model for Maybelline (owned by L’Oreal USA); is now developing a new skin-care line for women of color called Devise Beauty. This skin care line will be targeted at African American, Latino and Asian skin tones. Jessica is not just lending her beautiful features or her name to enhance the brand; she is very hands on in the lab with chemists to ensure its quality.


You all may find Jessica’s face familiar – as she appeared on VH1’a reality series The T.O. Show last year.
