Jennka Posted July 16, 2007 Posted July 16, 2007 In my opinion, Chanel´s gonna be big one day, she´s got everything! That´s why they put her on the cover, she´s rippin the runway scene, that girl has a potencial to be a supermodel...and she´s so young!! Quote
fery Posted July 16, 2007 Posted July 16, 2007 Just my opinion her look is boring and she looks starving. I don't think she will ever be the next supermodel. Not the likes of Naomi or Tyra. Its just my opinion so don't bash on me. Quote
Jennka Posted July 16, 2007 Posted July 16, 2007 it´s ok she´s still very young, she needs to grow up and gain some weight but she´s not boring at all, actually she´s a lot of fun Almost Famous With mile-long legs and an unforgettable name, Chanel Iman is on the fast track to supermodeldom. French Connection To hear Chanel Iman tell it, she was born for the role of supermodel. "I used to dress up as a model for Halloween, like every year," she laughs. "I would study all the magazines and practice all my poses and my walk." So begins the story of fashion's most-talked-about newcomer. Chanel nailed her first full season of shows with an A-list lineup that included Marc Jacobs, Proenza Schouler, Dolce & Gabbana, Alexander McQueen, and Valentino. She would have done Louis Vuitton and Lanvin, too, except she was only fifteen at the time of Fashion Week and, being a minor, couldn't work on Sunday in Paris. "I want to go all the way," she says of her career ambitions. "My goal is to be a household name, and when I do that, I want to help other girls become models, and maybe even launch a fashion line with my mom, like Beyoncé did with her mother. My mom has such a good eye," she says, "and it's always been a dream of hers. I'd love to be able to do that for her." If her current star path is any indication she'd better start brainstorming names. After all, Chanel is already taken. —JANE KELTNER Baby, Chanel Iman Was Born to Runway — Thu, Oct 12, 2006 — Chanel Iman Today the New York Times' Styles section actually spends a bit of time covering (wait for it) fashion. It's a miracle. And the fashion piece aren't even really trend pieces, but come to be this anomaly known as "fashion reporting." And one of these reported pieces is on 15-year-old model Chanel Iman. Modeling, it seems, was her "birth right." She was born to walk runways, wear couture, and flip around at photo shoots in front of fans and stuff. And it's not just because her name is Chanel Iman either. She's gorgeous, and tall, and under 18. And under 110 pounds. “I was at Stella McCartney’s show,” she said, “and I’m dying to go to the bathroom, and so I went up to this guy and asked: ‘Do you work here? Do you know where the bathroom is?’ I didn’t know it was Paul McCartney! I mean, I know who Paul McCartney is, but I didn’t know what he looked like.” And it's not like "brain surgeon" was really a viable career option.

I can't believe she is so young though...I almost feel like a sick perve looking at pictures of her. And agreed with Jennka, she seems nice really down to earth I've seen videos of her on FTV she seems like an angel and I wish her the best in this cut-throat industry. Quote
