Iโm elated. I guess itโs better late than never. Welcome to the 21st century. Itโs fantastic. I love Dior, and Rihanna is very much one of my style icons. Iโm happy they got there in the end. I adore her style. She loves fashion, sheโs unafraid. She uses her imagination, which is something we should all strive to do.

Beverly JohnsonWhen I went to Fashion Week, I was very disappointed by how few women of color were in those shows. I do speak to the younger girls, and I hear them when they say they're not getting the big contracts or into the big shows.
Beverly JohnsonBusiness fits me best. The only reason I went into modeling originally was to help out my family, because I knew that money gave you freedom. I tried acting and all of the arts, I even put out a record album, but what I like the most is business, which is where I am now.
