63. 14. 12. How is it 84% believe Marisa Tomei has good genes but only 37% believe Iman does? Wow, could it be most of the people voting are WHITE? Blacks don't age at the same rate as Whites due to their darker skin tone. And, the fact Blacks don't spend as much time in the sun. Whites are the ones who use Botox and have plastic surgery to correct every little wrinkle. I've never read about a Black actress or entertainer who has had plastic surgery or botox, but have read about plenty of White ones who have. I can't begin to tell you how many times I've met a White woman who I thought was in her 40s only to find out she was in her 20s or 30s! I've actually seen White women whose skin had the look of dried leather from too much sun. Yuck! Blacks don't fear aging the way Whites do. Blacks embrace wrinkles and gray hair and resfuse to spend thousands of dollars trying to look younger than they are. The older Black women I know wear their gray hair proudly while the White women dye their hair blonde even when they're in their 70s! And, pile on tons of makeup trying to look half their age. Iman may have had procedures done but I for one, am willing to give her the benefit of the doubt and say her good looks are due to genes. Not, plastic surgery. Like they say, "black don't crack." LOL

You could be right, but blacks don't wear their natural hair and spend thousands on hair weave, relaxers, and perms.

65. #33

66% of black women are overweight compared to 49% of white women
37% of black women are obese compared to 24% of white women

Another study found

66% of black people do not speak proper English compared to 6% of white people

Anther study found

there is 4,618 of every 100,000 black males in prison compared to 1,747 Hispanic compared to 773 white

Maybe you want me to continue with studies done on welfare, food stamps, high school graduation, college, single parent households, unmarried black women, crime rate, substance abuse, etc...............................

66. The only real differences between the two pictures that cannot be explained by makeup and lighting plus the reconstructive surgery are the laugh lines. Her nose is a little different but the surgeon who redid her face did a very good job. I'm sure she also has had good skin care since she was young.
The other question is how old was her average ancestor who died of natural causes where cancer, etc. are considered natural causes? The greater the longevity of your family, the older you are before you look old. I've always used good skin care and my family lives into their nineties. People, even at the makeup counter where I buy my skin care, always guess that I am at least 10 years younger than my real age. And I'm white with ancestors from England, Germany and Poland. There is no reason why Imam had to have surgery to look that good at her age.

67. I always have to wonder how anyone could click on "good genes". One can CLEARLY see the cheek implants. Furthermore it's not possible that a woman at her age has no wrinkles. I would guess 98% of all celebs get plastic surgery done and injections.

68. she was in a horrific car accident, people. she had to be reconstructed pretty much from scratch. but she's not a white chick who's business is splashed across mainstream media, so people don't know all that. plus she's older than all the rest of these irrelevant broads on this site.

69. Black is beautiful and we don't crack.

70. Hey 67, I think she's a pretty woman period. The only thing that has me wondering . . . Has her face grown longer with time?
Her face seemed rounder when she was younger and her nose shorter. The changes in skin color don't bother me.

71. Lighter skinned blacks are considered more attractive within the black community,by many.Also alot of people who are white favour the lighter skinned blacks.I know lots of whites who have aged well do to good genes,as well as many who haven't.I love Iman,she rocks,and look forward to seeing her on Project Runway Canada soon.

72. it's apparent she's been bleaching her skin so she isn't so dark. a shame that dark skinned people are not proud of being dark. it's tragic that they bleach their skin to be lighter.

and yes.. she's has work don't on her... so... obviously her doctors are the ones who have done a good job on her
