A biography for Chanel Imanhasn’t been written yet.
“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 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 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 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 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.”
“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.”
“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'm really into natural and organic products.”
“Mostly I'm proud to be an African-American woman, but I'm glad I have a universal look as well.”
“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.”
