Five years from now I see myself still working hard to get where I want to be, because I think big.
A good night's sleep is always the best way to wake up and go to work.
Don't be afraid to express yourself through fashion!
It takes time to be who you really want to be. It doesn't happen overnight.
I am comfortable with my body and embrace who I am. I love to work it.
I don't get facials. The last time I got a facial was when I first started modeling when I was 15 or 16. It made my face completely break out.
I'm my own person, and I want people to know me for who I am.
I don't want to be known as the black model. I want to be recognized as Chanel Iman, a personality.
I drink a lot of protein shakes and do a lot of weight lifting.
I'm thinking of slowing down on modeling and branching out to other things. I want to pursue some new and old dreams and start making them happen.
I have had the privilege of working with the best in the business, from photographers to designers to magazines. There's not much more to ask for but I'm still looking forward to one day working with photographers Mert and Marcus, Tim Walker and Nick Knight.
At the end of the day, I feel like I have no one to blame but myself if I'm not satisfied with how I look on the runway.
Music is everything to me. I wake up and go to bed with it. I listen to all genres, depending on my mood.
No babies for me until I'm in my 30s! I'm focused on my career right now. I can't even take care of my dog.
Honestly, I try to forget Fashion Week once it's over. I just want to go home and rest and just forget I even did it. It could drive you crazy! It's just show after show after show, and you're missing your family and they feel really far away. You don't go to sleep. You work for a month.
I want to do television, film, music and designing. I want to do it all!
Mostly I'm proud to be an African-American woman, but I'm glad I have a universal look as well.
My taste in music originates from my culture and heritage, and from traveling the world and listening to all kinds of fun sounds and bits.
I don't like to fly. What's it called when the plane shakes? Turbulence, takeoffs... I grab my chair, close my eyes, count to 30, breathe, and pray.
I always take my time when picking out outfits at home, but I will say I can change pretty quick when I'm in a hurry.
I'm grateful to look the way I do. However, if I could change anything, I would like to be a bit bigger all over. Not much - just a bit.
I'm just really tiny. People hate me, because I just sit. I'm eating, I'm eating, I'm eating and then I just... sit. And I don't gain a thing.
I'm really into natural and organic products.
