17. Khoudia Diop
As a child, many of us were teased. Diop was no exception. Diop was teased because of her dark skin tone. When she moved to Paris at the age of 15, she entered the modeling world. Eventually, she earned the name “Melanin Goddess” because of her dark black skin. She’s another model with one of the most unique, rare appearances in the world, which she uses to her advantage. She feels pride and acceptance of her beauty and is someone we can all learn from (via Wikipedia).
