Why do black male models have less jobs than other models? Like this new show Model City, yeah they may be the top black male models in the city but they still don't get as much jobs as white or female models. |
| Because they're black. |
Can someone name me a BUNCH of black male models? I would just like to know who there is :) |
the only one I know is tyson beckford. that's because he is fineeee :)
sorry I can't list a lot! |
BLACK MALE MODELS...and the fashion industry.? as a black man who most probably wont care about this topic, i just can ignore the fact that every bill board or advert i see its a white man being used. There has only be two top black models so far Tyson and Tyrese. And if you go on google you will find over 70 white ones.
Black men have soo much potential considering that they are usually musculy and have strong features. Tyson Beckford would be considered and ordinary black guy from where i'm from yet i'm very happy he made it. My point is there are many black men who have the looks and the body...better thanTyson Beckford but yet fashion managers (or what ever they are called) seem to just walk past them. or the police sends them to prison or something. Tyson was part of the whole gangsta life before but was fortunate that God put it in the heart of the fashion manager to find him special. Left to the manager, i'm am sure he wud not want the success of even one black man. Why does racism have to pour into everthing even modelling |
I know, it's crazy. In acting, modeling, and even the working industry, minorities have to work harder than caucasians.
"Why does racism have to pour into everything even modeling"
--The big businesses always love to find someone that relates to the "majority" of people. They want to hire someone who looks just like the little caucasian guys watching tv. No offense to caucasian people, but I agree that it's time for a change.
The other day this little hawaiian girl (who was adopted & had a caucasian mom) walked up to me in the grocery store and said, "Hey, mommy, she looks just like me!" and then told me, "I've never met someone like me before!" & She gave me a hug. I was like, Wow, this goes to show it's about time for change. |
What is this upcoming show called on MTV about black male models??!!? TEN POINTS! |
| i thought i knew but i cnt remember |
Name of popular black male model, with kind of asian eyes? I'm trying to find the name if a male model. He's black, dark skintone, and these sort of asian type eyes and highish cheekbones. He is musclular and very beautiful and when I saw him he had very very short hair on his head, like a buzzcut/shadow. He's been on TV on fashion type shows a few times I think. Thanks! |

Black Male & Female Models Descrminated against!? I have just broke into this industry myself, and I have been very successful so far. But I am noticing the racism and discrimination that very well exist in this field! If you look at the runway models normally its about 50 Caucasians men, and 5 or less black men! Or 150 Caucasian women, and 25 black women! Any women or male of an ethnic background gets less stage time, less outfits etc. Does anyone else notice the same?...keep this clean no need to make an *** of yourself ha! But im really interested in what you all have to say blacks, Whites, Hispanics, Asians, Indians etc....lets get into this! |
| Yeah I have definitely noticed it. And the people screaming no big deal are definitely the ones who are not into modeling like that because my cousin is a model and agencies have made some negative comments about how they already have a Black model and do not need that many. And its just like what? But hopefully the industry will get better. |
What are some ways for a black male model to break into the fashion industry.? I've been wanting to model since I was 12 and I'm 14 right now, is there any hope for me. |
you need to list things like height and maybe a photo so we can see what you look like.
your best bet would be sending photos to a modelling agency. |
Black Male Model For American Eagle or Aeropostale? hey i was wondering if there was any possibility for this happening? cause i have a friend who is 16 and black (not like dark, normal brown), and he wants to get into modeling. |
Yeah, they have male models in those stores.
Most of then are built, have a square jaw and very good facial bone structure. And usually they have a trimmed line up.
Good luck to your bud. |
How to Dress Like a Black Male Model? I love to wear Ralph Lauren and Lacoste.. I wish I could be a model but Im certain that is never going to happen because I am 5 foot 6 and 19yrs old. I don't really care to be a model, I guess my biggest question is how should i dress... tight pants, shirts, kind of shoes? |
It would always be changing. Models are on top of fashion. Get several of the magazines and watch the Bryant Park fashion shows. RL and Lacoste mean your taste is very preppy. So Rockport has a lot of shoes that are brown or black casual shoes, and yet super comfy and look like dressier shoes.
As you are always wearing khakis and a polo shirt, a polo should never be super tight. I'd look up some pictures of Tyson Beckford. He is an excellent representation of how models should dress. |
