phantasmas 10,508 Posted February 26 Share Posted February 26 Banks has exhibited her own measure of resilience. Over 20 years ago, she branched out from modeling—working as an actress in The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, Higher Learning and Love & Basketball. But perhaps her best-known role wasn’t a character of someone else’s imagining. From 2003 until 2015, and for one season in 2018, she was the personality-driven host of the TV megahit America’s Next Top Model, which she cocreated; it was the CW network’s longest-running reality show. And her long list of receipts continues to unfurl: Banks was the first Black woman to appear solo on the cover of Sports Illustrated’s coveted swimsuit issue, the first Black woman to cover GQ and the first Black woman to grace the cover of the Victoria’s Secret catalog. Also, starting in 2020, she served three years as executive producer and host of Dancing with the Stars.

The lack of eyebrows is the best part of these because the brows they drew on look so uneven. That gunmetal eyeshadow and the lighting wash her out and make her look like she has 5 o'clock shadow on the cover image. That giant wig looks so crunchy, and the application makes it look like she's bald standing in front of the wig. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The first black and white photo eats I love the photos with that curly beehive wig. She's turning her face at an angle so you can't see how uneven the brows are, and they've blown out the contrast so much that the eyeshadow just reads as black. I also really like the fur coat one, but you can also barely see her face so... 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
