My Top 10 Most Beautiful Black Women. I bow to all you incredibly gorgeous and inspiring ladies.
Thank you for all you've done and continue to do. Here's my list:
1. Naomi Campbell - I always say that most celebrities are overrated but this woman here is one of the few that I think was drop-dead gorgeous and I don't use that phrase a lot. DROP-DEAD-GORGEOUS. Symmetrical face, beautiful brown skin, killer body, in her prime Naomi was a stunning girl. Much more than just pretty.
2. Vanessa Williams - She was just on another level. So breathtaking she made other attractive women look like farm animals.
3. Aaliyah - Was just a natural beauty. I don't know any other way to put it. Didn't need 100lbs of make-up or have her ass hanging out all the time to get noticed. She could be behind black glasses and have on baggy pants and still be this personification of femininity.
4. Gabrielle Union - A chocolate queen. Terrible actress but boy is she BADD. Badder than all of her contemporaries. Kerry, Sanaa, Meagan G., Lauren London...while all beautiful none of them have anything on Gabby. None of 'em.
5. Beyoncé - What is there to say about Queen B that hasn't already been said? Stunning in and out of make-up and curves for days. Slightly prettier than Halle Berry.
6. Halle Berry - Short hair, long hair, straight hair, curly hair...Halle can rock any style and wear it well. Her bone structure is simply incredible and she has the greatest brown eyes.
7. Whitney Houston - I think most people haven't forgotten how talented Whitney was but I often think it's understated just how beautiful she was in her prime. And maybe it's sort of understandable considering she put her ability in front of how attractive she was physically. But even so, Whitney Houston at her peak, was among the best looking females in the business.
8. Tyra Banks - Tyra, Tyra, Tyra. Amazing, amazing, amazing. Quite annoying at times but her beauty is undeniable. Her best feature: those green eyes.
9. Kelly Rowland - Definitely underrated in past years but so glad to see many finally recognizing just how attractive Ms. Rowland is. The girl is a dime.
10. Janelle Monae - One of my favorite new girls in the game. Incredible skin, wonderful smile, natural, gorgeous hair. Janelle is the total package.
There are honorable mentions but unfortunately they didn't make the list above. Still Badd, still Beautiful, but these 10 women above all stand out to me in front of the pack.
