33. This is an incredibly racist site. I assume Mr. Levin is a conservative Republican, which is amusing considering his private life. (You'll be in camps too, Harvey, along with the other gays, the women who want control over their bodies, Jews, Hispanics, etc.) Iman was simply never as dark as she's shown in the first pic. That's a trick of lighting or make-up-. make-up for African American women has improved vastly since then. In fact, Iman has her own line. She looks very good. Who cares if she's had help?

34. What the h*ll is wrong with you people? GOOD DOCS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!??????????? BLACK PEOPLE DON'T AGE LIKE WHITE PEOPLE. I tell you, during their teen years and up to 30, white women are as hot as they can get. And they've always had great looking bodies. I MEAN THAT!!! But 30 and beyond, white women start aging in dog years. If if wasn't for makeup, I tell you, it would be a crime for white women to go out in public. Now don't get me wrong, I still like dating white women as much as I do any nationality (I'm one of the few people on this earth who truly have the inability to be prejudice) and I feel bad saying the above, but hey, what is true is true. One final thing. OF ALL THE WOMEN I'VE GONE TO BED WITH, WHITE WOMEN ARE BY FAR THE BEST LOVERS ON THE PLANET.................BAR NONE!!!!! BLACK WOMEN, SECOND, ASIANS THIRD.

35. If you look at her first picture at age 20 you can see under the black eyeshadow that she has very hangy/droopy eyelids. I got the same problem myself and when I do my makeup like hers you dont see it as much so thats a great makeup for hangy eyelids.. but then on the second picture she has more lifted eyelids then she must have had when she was borned.. because in my family we got hangy eyelids but no wrinkles.. so yes she definately had eyelift surgery. I'm gonna have that too because truth to be told it makes you feel tired all the time, it feels kinda heavy on the eyes.

36. Make up artistry and skin care has changed significantly since the 70s. Lighting is also a huge factor as well as the skill of the photographer and don't forget touching up and retouching. It appears there was work done ; nose job maybe more, but its been done tastefully..Thumbs up!!

37. It's natural. "Black don't crack"! Black skin doesn't show age in the same way that white skin does, especially blacks with darker skintones. It's a blessing that God has given us to overcome all the curses the world places on us for our skin.

38. For the one that said that black women don't use Botox, Vanessa Williams, a black women swears by her use of it. It is true though that black women due to the melonin in their skin don't age as quickly as white women. I am a bit shocked by the change in the color of Iman's skin. She used to be so much darker, of course some of that can be based on the fact that in the earlier pic was right after leaving Africa where she was closer to the equator and had more sun, but not all of it can be attirbuted to that, she has ligthened considerably.

39. It is obviously natural, not cosmetic. Majority of black women age well. Give Iman credit where credit is due.

40. It is true that blacks don't age that white people do. They hold up better. I am fair skinned, and I don't go out in the sun either although I can tell I have aged faster than others.

41. I said Good Genes.... and I think if you take away the hair style and put shorter hair on her, she'd look years older

Posted at 1:12PM on Oct 26th 2008 by Marty? Is that you?

42. Are u Blind? She's changed her nose and her SKIN. She has lighten it.

Posted at 11:27AM on Oct 26th 2008 by I know my spelling is wrong , but I\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\'m too lazy to look it up...

43. "I turn darker in the summer and lighter in the winter. Come on now, you can't be that dumb. Some of you are paler than MJ if you didn't keep up with all that tanning."

The question is, how could you be so dumb? I too am a light skin black who turns a little light in the winter, but that's too damn light. Either she's lightened her skin , or wears the lighter shade of make up that OPRAH and Whitney Huston wears. Get real . And the nose? Come on. No way is that Nubian like her original one. But with that said, she does look great and not overdone. She still looks natural. She has a very good doc.

44. It's actually both! Remember, years ago she was in a real bad accident and had her face re-done due to some crushed bones; but also everybody knows "black don't crack" either!!
