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.

Celebrity Ca$hCows: JLo Jumps @ Every Opp!

Jennifer Lopez recently inked yet another ambassador deal with GilletteVenus. GilletteVenus has recently announced their partnership with Lopez as their Global Brand Ambassador.

The new American Idol judge came out with her rendition of the iconic song “Venus,” in their new commercial showing off JLo’s beautiful legs.

Jennifer and Gillette also launched the Venus Goddess Fund for Education, a new global cause supporting female empowerment through education.

What’s great is that money will go to the Venus Goddess Fund for Education anytime a woman inspired to share her story visits the Gillette Venus website.

Please get more feedback on why Lopez is a CashCow below (my personal excerpts):

You Can't Knock Tha Hu$tle (Jay-Z's famous song title) - She is a BO$$! From a humble yet determined beginning, Jenny from the block stayed focused on getting to her BIG dream. It's apparent that she is In Living Color these days and there is no denying that.

Having a successful acting career didnt stop her, she just had to climb the music charts by selling millions of records; oh did I forget to mention a successful fashion house J.Lo and JustSweet - and a string of fragrances with Coty Prestige (signature JLo, LiveLuxe, Live and Deseo and Deseo for men - just to name a few)??

Must I go on? I will. She is now one of the judges on the nation's most watched reality contest shows - American Idol! The 38 year old is not slowing down ANYTIME soon - sorry....:(

She has everything!!! -Even all of the hottest men. She is a business bull and maneater too!!!(GOSH - if I can be her for just ONE day!)

On top of all of these business ventures, Lopez is cashing endorsement checks left and right from multiple beauty and luxury fashion rulers such as L'Oreal Paris and Gucci!! Check the ads out below.

Oh it gets better.. Max and Emmie - yea her little ones - they are added-value to the celeb's conglomerate . We should just dub the twins "The Lopez Long Money Honey's" ;)
