Her original ambition was to become the 1st African American Rockette; however, in 1984 she became the 1st Black Miss America! There were some unauthorized nuddie pics taken when she was 19 that caused her to resign the crown; but, she went on to be a successful recording artist, fashion designer, & actress. You know you're a strong woman when you can recover from such a scandal, sing songs for Disney, & even have an M&M made for you! @ 57, I'd still have her pic pent up in my house! #Juppo45
