[relief]thank God some people in africa can now differencite btw sexy and fineness.@1;54pm mercy johnson is not sexy ..sexy is a combination of fine face,good skin well shaped trim figure not unhealthy big bottom,like mercy ,ini edo ,omotola ekeinde and co.or bleached skin like rita dominic,tonto,rukky and co and its not about faking american accent as if ur ancestors originated from there.perfect list if u asked me.yvonne nelson the ghanan actress shld have being listed and genevieve if not 4 her flat chest and bottom.

Gbam! You have said it all.
i concur with tajo..gbam @ anon. but being flat chested should not be a criteria
They are soo fyneeee...me likey!
BLACK IS BEAUTIFUL!
very eurocentric (for the most part)
but the list is absolute rubbish, just like the one for the males
GBAM!!! I always knew WE (Niger Republic Women) didn't get enough recognition for our beauty. AT LAST!!!
Hali keep representing us mehn!
Btw, she's a recently retired international super model who has worked for almost all the big big designers ...
me too this seems very eurocentric. lists like these are the reasons why tonto and co are bleaching their skin and considering rhinoplasty
the list is partial thats all...
No single Nigerian model... come on... r we tht ugly? chei!
anyways... no bi international list sha
am I the only one that noticed the very obvious adam's apple in Tysha?
Ok. Why is Omowunmi akinfesi,nike oshinowo,munachi or stephanie oforka not there. And pls no one should mention genevieve here. The ladies are fit,trim and hott but where are there bosoms eh kwa?
Mercy johnson should have made that list. Broad nose and full lips are african features. If we must promote dark skinned as beautiful,then we should promote even the features. Its not just dark skin with white man's features like genny and agbani.

@ anonymous 11:23 am.
having a wide nose and full lips are not really "african" features, because many Africans don't possess those features.
I'm 100% Igbo, but i have a thing pointed nose and my lips aren't BIG. many Africans have "white man" features, so they're not exactly "white man" features.
but are those the features MORE ACCEPTABLE to the eurocentric white man? YES.
I agree with anonymous 11:17 am. Stephanie Oforka, Ify Jones, Anette Begg, Munachi, Funke Fowler, etc...
@Alicia 2.06pm. Average africans have full lips and a broader nose. Why accept what white people terms of beauty as beauty. That is why most black hollywood celebs are doing both nose and lip job e.g jessica white,amerie,kelly rowland e.t.c

@anonymous 9:09 am
what is average Africa to you? it also depends on what REGION of Africa you're talking about.
its simple, not all Africans have what are deemed as "African features" and not even all white people have "white features"
so we shouldnt see them as being "african" or being "white"
but we can agree that Europeans have set the standard of beauty that everyone is trying to live up to, and those "white" features are more accepting to them.
but they're not necessarily "white" or "african"
Thank you all for your comments and observations. Some of the ladies that you are asking about are on previous lists on Jamati.com. We try not to list them more than once.
One of the challenges we face is finding decent high resolution pictures of the women we would love to feature. If you can point us to these pictures, we will happily post.
Africa is teeming with gorgeous ladies and we want to showcase them to the world.
Sincerely,
