Can anybody give me some names of attractive well-known black women out there who are "really" black? When I say that, I mean those without hair weaves, those with the most natural look, ones who don't look "mixed" like Tyra and Beyonce with the highest percentage of African genes. I'm doing an art project where I am glorifying "ethnic" features that are so stigmatized in this Euro-centric world.

Hell, if they are well-known, why not.

Oh and please, absolutely no liberal PC garbage. That is not the purpose of my project. Truth is the goal here

NO HAIR WEAVES OR FAKE BODY PARTS!
Good example=Alek Wek
BAD example= Naomi Campbell

Oluchi Onweagba would be almost ideal if she didn't have that hair-weave

I guess I'm being a little picky, but I would like them to be in their most natural state.

That one of her is a suitable picture of Oluchi Onweagba, she's still hot without all those hair relaxers. What happened to afros sporting women like Angela Davis these days?

I have a whole list of beautiful DARK black women with '' ethnic '' features. But what are '' ethnic '' features ? Because not all black women have; full lips of wide noses. You should think about that. I don't think something like ''ethnic'' features exist anyway. People might think your ignorant by saying this.. but anyway here is my list :

This is what I call TRUE beauty. Not some fake *** women shaking her *** on TV with 22 inch blonde weave.
95% of these women are African
I hope I helped ya... Good luck with your project !

Beyonce and Tyra DO have the highest
percentage of African gene....

Even 80% of Africans are relaxing their hair
so it will be pretty hard....

umm, not all black people are african, just saying.. lol. But if you're looking for an african woman, go to africa, in america you will only find women influenced by the media, and trends.
So, honestly, if you want a 100% african woman, take a flight to africa.. Or even google/yahoo the pictures of african women :) Happy googling/yahooing
I hope I helped somehow,

Happy American <-- And I'm happy with my american women :P lol!
