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 Beyonce did with her mother. My mom has such a good eye, and it's always been a dream of hers.

My taste in music originates from my culture and heritage, and from traveling the world and listening to all kinds of fun sounds and bits.

Let me say this: I think men are a full-time job, and I'm young and I already have one job. I'm just focused on my career.

I don't want to be known as the black model. I want to be recognized as Chanel Iman, a personality.

You learn to be comfortable in your own skin, and your body changes throughout life, so you can't sweat the small stuff.

It takes time to be who you really want to be. It doesn't happen overnight.

Honestly, I try to forget Fashion Week once it's over. I just want to go home and rest and just forget I even did it. It could drive you crazy! It's just show after show after show, and you're missing your family and they feel really far away. You don't go to sleep. You work for a month.
