I really wanted to model and i was approached by some of the major agencies in the business when i was 16 and they said that they would love to take me on if i grew a little taller. I am 5ft 6 inches and i never grew any taller. I was told that they like there black girls to be at least 5ft9 and aboveconfused3.

I am a fair bit older than 16 now and i think that things may have changed slightly in the modelling industry now. Not all the black girls out there seem all so tall. There are black models in the storm website who are 5ft7 tall.

Good luck with it all.
