Nice and classy.
I am so proud of Audrey. Is she the first Asian model to make it in Sports Illustrated?
Yes she is the first and only Asian supermodel. Check out her interview at asiancemagazine.com
Calling Audrey "the first and only Asian supermodel" both a very loaded statement and downright wrong. There has been some discussion here in the past as to whether any Asian model is truly worthy of being called a 'supermodel', but I can definitely say that there are other Asian models who could more justifiably be called supermodels than Audrey.
That's not to say I don't like her though - far from it!
according to the statement above it is not wrong. she IS the first and only Asian model to make it in Sports Illustrated.
If a model is in Sports Illustrated does that make her an automatic Supermodel? And if a model is not in Sports Illustrated does that mean she is not (or never going to be) a Supermodel?
No it does not make her an automatic supermodel, and that is my point. I think the Wikipedia definition of "a model who has attained celebrity status" is the most accurate one, and Audrey is far from that.
