[edit] Precision please

"Irish & black" or Irish-American and Black? There is a difference. If you're American you ain't Irish. In my experience the average Xteenth generation "Irish-American" doesn't even know the difference between Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland, which makes them about as "Irish" as I am Chinese.

[edit] Jay/Miss Jay Quote Verification

I keep having to re-add a citation request to this statement:

Jay Manuel & J. Alexander have both revealed they didn't agree with Naima winning, saying "The winner is supposed to have personality and Naima had none."

I can't find a source for this anywhere. Since Naima is not a popular winner, if I can't find proof that this was actually said, it has to be removed as vandalism because an article about a living person with libelous statements can open Wikipedia up to legal issues. So far just googling for this turns up empty. Rebochan 19:44, 9 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Myspace Page

I have commented out the link to Mora's MySpace page, as I see no evidence that the page belongs to her, and several reasons that it is suspect:

1. Her ethnicity is listed as "Native American" when she consistently referred to herself as Black on Top Model, and explained her ancestry even further without any mention of being Native American.
2. She is from Detroit, Michigan, not Detroit, New York.
3. She is listed as married.
4. She acts like a "scener".
5. No information about her that is not publicly known
6. No candid (non-modeling) photos

Unless somebody can provide proof of her ownership of the MySpace page, there is no need to link to it.

actually i think its her. because her sister IFE who has a music page has her listed on her top friends n which naima comments her and comments other friends of hers. taht apparently know her from somewhere also she has almost 5,000 friends none of which im sure doesnt get sent friend requests BY naima herself so./ im pretty sure its the real deal . the real naima because she writes her fans, and shes listed on her actual sisters bands page. its her. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 97.82.159.141 (talk) 05:07, 12 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Picture

This girl is a famous model, why is there no picture of her? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Joseph 502000 (talk • contribs) 11:07, 2 January 2008 (UTC)

because there's not yet free picture that conforms with Wikipedia policies about images. Dekisugi (talk) 11:09, 2 January 2008 (UTC)

i think calling her a "supermodel" is a bit of a stretch, and reads like a statement from a gushing fan. 76.22.201.109 (talk) 01:11, 16 May 2008 (UTC)
