Back in 1983, Vanessa Williams was the first African American woman to be crowned Miss America. She was unfortunately stripped of her title because Penthouse magazine published unauthorized nude photographs of her.

Williams has had a successful career as an actress and singer but has faced hurdles along the way.

  1. The photos were a calculated move. 🙂 By "her people". Got her the notoriety she needed and publiscity to lauch her entertainment career. Had she not done thos ephotos she would have been forgotten in 6 months…after the Miss America win…who remembers the winer??

    Teh "career moves" some women are willing to take…e.g. 2 millionairesses who still made sex tapes to "lauch their careers"…WORKED for them too. Ironically neither of htem had to go into hiding. Nor their families. Funny the world we live in today….one of htem still gets air time on tabloid entertainment shows. One of the two has been staying out of the spotlight for several years…maybe the embarrassment has caught up to her and her family.

    Why did these 2 girls do it? They didn't need the money. Just wanted the "fame"??? The notoriety?? Now they have to cary around that "history"….as said in the film Gladiator "…verything we do echo's an eternity".

  2. When you're of the Catholic Faith, you can't be pro-choice.
    If you do, you're a heretic and anathema.
    Repent truly, Vanessa. Stop smearing The Lord's church.
