She was in an industry that attracts creeps and she manipulated them as much as she was manipulated. She was known for breaking ground technically for other black models- but was also known for then not sharing the runway with them. The kind of person who doesn't bring others up along with her when she does well. So it never surprised me that she pretended not to have heard of blood diamonds/Liberia or cared that others were affected by her poor choices.

Do people think she should’ve given up jobs to other black models? Get real. She made it easier for those who came after. She wasn’t obligated to give up her own career for that.

I seem to remember have threw her phone at someone a couple of times. That’s not cool. For the rest of it, I don’t know or care.

Absolutely she should not give up her job to others. But she shouldn't have told designers to block certain other models; it's an Uncle Tom situation. It's fine to be her ride or die if you like her so much but you need to be ok with others not respecting/admiring her for setting others back in multiple ways. I don't think she made anything easier for anyone that came after her. That's the problem with falling into a stereotype.

To the PP who rambled incoherent assumptions about people not helping others- you wouldn't know what people do or don't do to help others, but some people do more than NC did, clearly.

If you haven't watched it, The Super Models on Apple TV is GREAT.

Exactly. Anyone with a brain will know about her connection with Liberian dictator, Charles Taylor. She is not “innocent”.

Hey DCUM celebrity people forum, put Liberia on a map. Google Charles Taylor.

Oh, yah, she is best friends with P Diddy.

This sums it up perfectly. Her job has always been to look amazing and she's done that without fail. Expectations that she be kind, honest, not a violent bully are assuming she is as beautiful on the inside as she is on the outside, and that is a high expectation of any of these women.

I honestly think the worst one was Linda Evangelista.
