A lot of these celebs do coke or other substances because of their childhood or sometimes the way they handled their frame…I always wondered why & great video I really do enjoy your videos Karine
@@capricornqueen90thank you love! And the industry made it so normal that they really did believe it was ok 😢 now it’s more pills 💔
@@KarineAlourdeikr like they should be more open about mental health and well being when it comes to people and not have people feel like it’s such a bad stigma that people have to go through with they go through in life
In her memoir, did Beverly Johnson say she was having an affair with Arthur Ashe while he was married or that they dated prior to his marriage?
I recall her saying they had dated and that’s a huge difference from having an adulterous affair. (I didn’t read her memoir to know if their relationship continued throughout Arthur Ashe’s marriage but I do hope reports of an affair aren’t there in his marriage to Jeanne.) She’s a kind, lovely woman.
@@KarineAlourdeyes the industry influences the public on a grand scale normalizing horrible behaviors

lol I always loved her honesty
It's a great snack 🍿
@@mreclectic700: Me, I am Beverly Johnson.
Beverly Johnson is from my mother’s hometown and went to the same high school with my mom and aunt. They graduated the same year. Her daughter is gorgeous just like her.
Wow ‼️❣️
Sadly the best her daughter can do is Matt Barnes! 😂
@@LBgodchildand Matt Barnes’s is fine and rich.
@@telthatruth7533 and emotionally abuses her! I guess if you like lightskin and good hair he is a 4 at best
@@dr.aliadixonnursepractitio6473 YES, I like light skinned with "so called" good hair with NO SHAME but as I got older my preference has expanded. There's good looking men from the lightest to the darkest rich chocolate. As for him, he's a 9. I hope for her sake that he's not abusive.
She’s always been one of the most stunning women to ever grace this world.
I agree. I feel like she don’t get enough recognition she deserves her flowers💐💐💐💐💐💐💐💐🦋😘
These Black Queens own the beauty world
She is so incredibly lovely. 😍 timeless beauty.
Nice surprise! Beverly Johnson is STILL one of the MOST STUNNING models ever yet she made QUESTIONABLE choices as a mother. I hope she and her daughter are at a better place in terms of their relationship.
She is gorgeous! And, they are in a wonderful space. She speaks so highly of her daughter who is a college graduate and plus size model. I love their relationship and I’m happy to see that she was preserved from the lifestyle choices Johnson made while pregnant.
@@KarineAlourdeThat's great to hear. Thank you. ❤️
These Black Queens own the Beauty world
@@jokuz9133 SAY THAT! ❤️
We all make mistakes but, we need to accentuate her positive instead of magnifying the negative. Beverly moved mountains that no other black model at that time could achieve. Naomi Campbell was always in the news. You have never done anything questionable?
i wonder why her two marriages and the father of her daughter are not mentioned. it seems a lot to leave out.
There was her reality show, as well ....
A woman's importance isn't validated by marriage/dalliances with men.
@@Saraimaz then why was every other dalliance mentioned except her husbands and the father of her daughter. in a life story, these facts are not left out for a reason. it makes no sense.
Her baby daddy was horrible a cheater and abusive asshole she talks about it in her book.
@@Saraimaz or beauty
8:37 I laughed out loud because I find it so funny how some people react to others success. “What are you doing on the cover of vogue,” is such a compliment, like thank you for noticing 😂
Beverly Johnson is beautiful but Naomi Sims was the first black supermodel it is ashame that society don’t give her credit what credit due. Beverly Johnson and along with Naomi Sims made a at for all black models that came up after them…I never knew that there was so much hatred & jealousy with the models back in the days neither. Woman should empower one another and up lift one another not put each other down and throw pity insults and shade.
I did a video for Sims Naomi Sims - 1st Black Supermodel who overcame C0L0RISM from her mom & agencies
th-cam.com/video/Ie27GwwpJ5Q/w-d-xo.html Both ladies paved a path as well as Donyale Luna
th-cam.com/video/sGEkjJuZGRQ/w-d-xo.html but Beverly does deserve credit for being the first black model on the cover of Vogue. All women deserve credit of their own without the other being diminished ❤❤
@@KarineAlourdeYes they do as well as the others…So many singers , actresses , business women and models etc…They should give these women their credit when due while their still living not only when they are dead
@@capricornqueen90exactly!! Now Sims and Luna are gone but Johnson is still here. Iman, Grace Jones etc. All the flowers to them while they can still smell it 🌸🌸
@@KarineAlourde I meant to say Luna I couldn’t think of her first name…Luna was the first black model but people just start talking about her now…
She may not be the 1st, but a supermodel she is nonetheless 👍🏽
The 70s and 80s were the best age of supermodels.
I am a black man of a certain age and I have respect for what Bill Cosby meant to my generation however , I don’t think she is lying about Cosby. Cosby’s ego was out of control because of the incredible success and influence he had in the 70s 80s and 90s. I do believe some of the women put themselves in a position to know what was going on with Cosby , or know what might happen with Cosby, but clearly Beverly Johnson was not one of those women. Just because a girl got high, as most people did back then, does not mean they wanted to have sex.
She is not wrong about Vaseline. It's a cheap but effective beauty/skin item!
Vaseline is also a byproduct of petroleum(gas).
@@d_roi8689Exactly. It may seem convenient, but its not a beauty/skin item.
@@d_roi8689 yeah people putting this shit on their skin for years and then wonder why they're developing all kinds of cancers 🤦♀️
I use it too, along with Vicks at night. Works wonders
I grew up looking up to Beverly Johnson as the epitome of beauty…..I even wore my hair like her, pulled back in a low bun. She has aged beautifully and I get excited whenever I catch her on any one of the numerous talk shows or documentaries about Black models…..herre are your flowers Beverly💐💐🌺🌼
Plastic surgery ruin
She was young, ambitious and thought she could do anything living the high-life, I am not going to judge. It takes a lot to live and survive all that still looking as good as she does today and able to speak with some sense. God Bless you Ms. Beverly (Super-Model) Johnson!
She has brains and beauty! I remember seeing her on magazines when I was a little girl. Now I want to rewatch Tyson’s first fight. 😂
Recently, she was trying to change the whole modeling industry and make modeling agencies have to book a specific percentage of non-white models in order to get more representation in fashion. She said they’re not going to do it on their own. There should be a requirement. She’s still very active in that world.
Beverley has perfect features... it's no wonder she was at the top of the modeling world. ✨️💖✨️
I had her Barbie as a child it was all I wanted that year. She was my favorite model and I looked up to her as a role model.
I wonder if that Barbie would be worth a lot of money now.
@@deew1160 I wish I still had it.. I just have pictures of me smiling when I opened my present
Icon indeed paved the way for many brown skin girls ❤ thank you Ms. Johnson 💐💐💐💐💐
I saw a much younger Beverly when she was in town to promote her book, True Beauty. That was about 30 years ago. She was stunningly gorgeous, the most attractive woman I'd ever laid eyes on!!
Beverly Johnson is A True Icon. She has the BesT facial features of any model , in my opinion. Her and Yasmeen Ghauri are my favorite models.
Yasmeen had 'dat walk!
The same thing happen to Dorothy Dandridge with the pool incident😡 But Dorothy also couldn’t use the toilet or eat in the restaurant of the hotel. I say bravo to these talented and gorgeous women❤️❤️💕
Please do Traci Lords … that will Be a good one…
😮😮😮they drained the pool over Dorothy Dandridge before her
I remember back in the 70's she was on Ebony magazine. She is absolutely beautiful absolutely !! Classy Lady!!!
Mike was super motivated to win!😂
Her and Iman look very similar. So it’s not surprising that Iman and her had some tifs in the industry because no doubt they were definitely competing for those same magazine covers and opportunities…
Both are STUNNING icons. Disheartening to know Iman and Beverly are not on the best terms. I prefer for women ESPECIALLY Black women to GENUINELY get along instead of constantly competing with each other. ❤
I also think they favor.
Noooooo! Beverly does not look similar to Iman at all. Except being "model tall and slim"!
Iman is more prettier. Duhh she's SOMALI.
@@Cici_mimi Nooo, doesn't matter where Iman is from...not prettier than Beverly.
When Ms. Johnson spoke up during 'me, too', I was FLOORED! She is an icon and her words are powerful! She's a hard-core survivor and I respect her.
I love me some Beverly Johnson ! I also love that she was a truth teller tbh we were so focused on being canceled when we are just trying to connect . She admits to doing drugs while pregnant and provides nuance and reference . I feel like we are so ready to judge nowadays and rarely critically understand that no one is perfect ish happens
Beverly Johnson has always been one of the most beautiful women on the PLANET. It's not just physical beauty, but she carries herself with absolute class. She doesn't have to say a thing, it just oozes from her.
Yes love that the black models stood their ground and fought for themselves, she’s is still beautiful, Ms. Trinidad on Martin 🤣
Love her. She is an icon. A true supermodel. ❤❤
just a fact check but it was actually donyale luna who was the first black woman to be on the cover of any vogue magazine. which beverly johnson actually believed was her until recently which is crazy (beverly was the first to cover american vogue). but still props for beverly for kicking the door down and being the blueprint for black models to follow. she’s truly amazing
I absolutely LOVE your channel Karine! I am learning so much about so many legends I grew up watching and hearing and it's very revealing about what happens so often behind the scenes in Hollywood and the music, fashion and entertainment industries! Please keep going!
If someone play Beverly Johnson in a biopic it needs to CIARA!!!!! Click 19:02 and see for yourself!!
I totally agree. I was searching the comment section just to see if anyone else saw it as well😊
@@tqr3398 great minds think alike lol
YESSS
This lady is simply fabulous, all I can say. 💜
Beverly Johnson is beautiful! 🤎
One of my beauty icons ( I'm a 70s baby💃🏽) and I remember that Revlon Ad, Vogue , and she's timeless. I remember she said that Cosby couldn't get her in a cab fast enough after she cursed him out upon knowing that he had put something in her coffee and I'm so happy she got away. ALL of the black models I saw and admired growing up made it a wonderful time to see your maternal figures, yourself, and other women in your community in them💐💐💐. They paved the way for sure! The Martin episode was one of my favs tho 😂😂.
Thank you for sharing this Beverly is stunning ❤
Love her! ❤️❤️❤️
I get so tired of hearing about the native American and European mixture in African Americans. Why can we not just be handsome or beautiful just because we're black just because of our African heritage in DNA. Why? Iman who was Beverly Johnson's competition she is from the motherland (Africa) and she is stunningly beautiful strikingly beautiful and she's an African so there you have it we're not beautiful or handsome because of our mixture of DNA that's it Beverly Johnson did not have to have mixed heritage or mixed DNA to be beautiful.
I mean she looks like Pocahontas and now we get it. Pointing out her heritage does not take away from the beauty of other black women. There are many beautiful black models whose beauty cannot be denied
However, historians are speaking up "today" 2024, about native Black Americans (original black indians) that were captured, and reclassified as Negro, and enslaved along with the transatlantic African captives! So it's not "cliche" on the mixing designed and/or survival mode!!! It is what it is!
What exactly is wrong with bringing up someone's ethnic mix? You should like a racist
MAY I SCHOOL AFRICA IS NOT THE ROCK OF CIVILIZATION...HOW DO I KNOW BECAUSE AFRICA IS NAMED AFTER A GENTILE A ROMAN GENERAL NAMED PUBLIS CORNELIUS SCIPIO AFRICANUS WHO DEFEATED HANNIBAL WHO RAN TO ITALY COMMITTED SUICIDE
YOU
They are American that's what r passport says
She’s so beautiful.
Beautiful & Sincere...Love your report on one of my favorites! Thank you for sharing your truth, and surviving those abusive relationships, Ms. Beverly Johnson!
You left out her husband’s Danny Sims her child’s father now that”s the real tea.
She's a true beauty! I've always loved her look!
I remember her all too well. From the Revlon Charlie days to present. You see, I am the 1970s, and she was on a couple of magazine covers. If my memory serves me correctly, McCalls or Simplicity. She might have been on the cover of Vogue magazine. I was around 15 or 16. Half out of jr high and then high school. Those times were great. She owned her style. Hooray for Beverly Johnson. She needs more recognition.
Hey karine could you maybe do Britney Spears or WWF Chyna I feel like they lived colorful lives
You know I got you. I will do one for Chyna before Spears because Spears still has a lot being uncovered. I want to wait things out a bit. But I loved Chyna, may she rest in peace ❤❤
Oh yea most definitely agree, I feel like Chyna was a female version of the rock she was crossing over but with Vince’s daughter I felt like she was blackballed and done wrong but I can’t wait and I absolutely enjoy your channel keep up the great work Karine 🤞🏾💯
Britney Spears man I really hate how her family done her…But her life was something especially when she had her mental breakdown back in 07’ I felt like all she needed was to talk to someone about her issues but the media made it into a big mess and it messed up her career. Like I miss hearing music from her especially. Like Karine could you do a video about Christina Aguilera
She’s still gorgeous! ❤
Stunningly beautiful!
Ms. Beverly Johnson A Natural Beauty and Icon. I Love watching your videos Karine. Thank you so much for sharing these amazing people/ celebrities and their biographies❤️
Thanks for this video on Beverly Johnson she deserves the highlight.
Oooh that Revlon ad was 🔥
Thank you Karine!
She is truly a timeless beauty. None her looks are outdated. She could show up projecting any of the looks in this piece, and her presence would still own the room.
So many of the great models are geniuses as well.
Beverly Johnson is one of the first faces that I always remember as a child coming up in the mid-late 70s. When I would have been about 3- 4 years old she was modeling she's the first face I always remember.🎉 I remember Iman in the late 70s early 80s as well. Very chic and classy not like today a beautiful role model 📰📰📰📺📽️👌🏼🥰🏖️😉🙋🏻♀️🇨🇱🇨🇱🇨🇱
Love your channel, another great bio, thank you! 💐🌹🌷
gorgeous
Girl, Hank you for this edition! I I am a child of the 70s. So, I know Beverly Johnson… She was all over the place. But, I still didn’t know she was this huge!
I appreciate you for sharing
LOVE HER FOREVER!😘❤
It depressed me so much to hear about them draining the pool. 😞
They were so jealous, crazy and pathetic to do that. That’s their shame to carry, not yours. ☺️
@@jadesiress3382 👏🏿 Amen
Beverly opened fashion to me ❤️🙏🏾
Great Video of a Wonder Lady! You do Very Meticulous Research & Share Things That are Not Well Known. 🧡🌹🌹🧡
I love your channel, I'm definitely hooked. I would love to see a bio on Princess Diana.
Same here…..over the years I have definitely watched and read numerous movies, videos and stories about Diana, however, I love Karine….her voice, her research and her presentation are all perfection imo and I think she would do Diana justice and give a fair and accurate representation of her life!
Beverly Johnson, while beautiful, is just one beautiful model of her Era. There was also Wanakee. She is soo beautiful. I don't know why these models are not covered but also Sheila Johnson. She was a popular and beautiful model at that time. You may remember her as the queen's first Lady in "Coming to America" with Eddie Murphy.
Beverly let a young Mike Tyson clap them cheeks like a choir😂😂....I didn't know she hit Eddie Murphy to Beverly was out here knocking em down 👊🏾👊🏾✊🏾✊🏾😂😂
Loved this video!!✌️✌️ I love your channel. I watch your videos religiously
🫶🏼🫶🏼🙏🏼
Larsa pippen would be a good video
Yes Beverly Johnson is absolutely gorgeous ❤ great vid
1:46 is the Cosmo cover I so associate with BJ. I clearly remember buying the UK Cosmo back then, when glamour mags were truly glam.
Just beautiful woman!..Grazie..❤
One of my favorite super models. Very stunning and beautiful lady!
She is a stunning lady. I agree, she doesn’t enough flowers 💐 🌸 🌺
I remember Ms. Beverly Johnson telling the story about her being involved in a round of golf, when she was approached by a young man who mistaken her for being younger & was trying to make his move on her in the moment. It was to his surprise that she happened to be a mature woman in life. His response was, "Excuse me ma'ma!" ⛳️ 🏌️♂️
Good job Carine. Love Ms Beverly
Miss Trinidad lol… 😍 iykyk
She sure is absolutely GORGEOUS
Great video, and she look so much like my oldest sister, her daughter, and granddaughter combined lol, but you didn't mention she recently got married. But great video and love your content 🤩
I've never been this early.
I had to change my notification button cause I was wondering why my bell wasn’t going off like it used too months ago. I love Karine videos
She's beautiful. Love ur vids
Unsung Dutch model Louise Vyent🤩
I’m Dutch, thanks I have never seen her, but stunning indeed. ❤
My Goodness Good God just the tile of the video makes me jump into good girl
This is a SUPERMODEL!
can you do a story on doris day.
Definitely ❤
@@KarineAlourde love you.
Hi Karina, can you do Adut Akechi or Anok Yai?
My top favorite black model period!!!!
BREATHTAKING
Have you done a video on the 70s and 80s super model as well as the industry? Cindy Crawford, Cheryl Tiegs, Iman, et al. Fascinating time
💜💜💜💜
I am 69 she's 72 and she was my first idol. You hear so much about these stars, drugs and abuse that it goes in one ear and out the other, but there would be no Tyra Banks without BJ. She made us all very proud. Surprised to hear Chris Noth was so evil, he starred in all those lifetime movies, never giving a hint of his cruelness. Thanks, for highlighting what I call a real super model. Wishing her continued success.
A goddess with beauty of an
ethereal quality.
Just freaking GORGEOUS!!!!! AND STILL IS 😍
❤Could you do one on Charlie Theron and Keri Russell?
Shes beautiful. Good story!
Please do Anna May Wong and Sophie Tucker ❤
Beverly johnson was the 1st Supermodel image I saw and I Couldn't believe how beautiful she was. She's my favorite and I'm glad I got the opportunity to finally meet her in 2024 for her one woman show in New York! And she's incredibly beautiful! My dream came true and she lived up to her legend ❤️ 💙 ❤
Absolutely perfect face! How come you didn't mention ananza or whoever ananzas father is?
She is stunning! I find the interracial models very unique and beautiful. You can see her Native American heritage ❤❤❤
A real one ❤
Wow
Sis, please give up the Blue Magic secrets!
