For years, the beautiful Iman has helped women of color look their best. Are Iman’s flawless features the work of age or a plastic surgeon? The answer is a little bit of both. The Somali native had surgical procedures common among supermodels, a breast augmentation and a rhinoplasty. Some people question if she had her skin bleached. I took a look at a picture of Iman, who turns 56 in July, from 1975. Her skin was a lot darker, compared with the cocoa brown complexion she is associated with today. Nonmedical touchups courtesy of Photoshop could be the culprit of her lightened skin. In 2008, People magazine considered Iman an ageless beauty. She said her father, who was 70 at the time, looked as if he was 40. The thrice-married model also said she had no need for Botox – at least for now. Iman, wife of singer David Bowie, caught a lot flack in 2009 when she said first lady Michelle Obama was not a “great beauty.” Honestly, the comment was blown out of proportion. Iman did not say she was ugly, just that Michelle wasn’t supermodel material. SMH.
