one of very few ethnically African models featured in major fashion photo shoots and runway shows.and she is from Ethiopia.

Liya Kebede was born and raised in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. A film director spotted Kebede while she was attending Lycee Guebre Mariam and introduced her to a French modeling agent. After completing her studies, she moved to France to pursue work through a Parisian agency. Kebede later relocated to New York City. She has remarked that the modeling industry in Ethiopia is quite different from the catwalks on which she is now ubiquitous. In contrast, in Ethiopia she had to provide her own shoes for each runway show.

  • @WupeViasco you're an ignorant fucking IDIOT!!! Why are you so jealous of ethiopians you're trrying to claim them in your own race? That's fucking disgustingly freakish. Furthermore you have absolutely no idea what you are talking about. Ethiopians are black african negros

  • Love her or hate her.... She's laughing all the way to the bank. She's in the top paid models in the world. On top of that, her husband is successful businessman in the banking work with a networth of $400 million & gives many to charity.

    So say what you want to say... But get inspired you fuc faces. Hate only breeds success.
