Kamari Brown is a twenty-five year old plus-size model in New York City.She is 1/4 British, 1/4 German and 1/2 African-American. She grew up in Seattle, England and Germany. She
started modeling because she
wanted to express her creativity, and she's done that through acting, dancing and now modeling. And also because she wanted to help other women love their bodies, which is something she had issues with too.
Kamari struggled with low-self esteem issues growing and was uncomfortable in her own skin for many years. She says " ... It wasn't until Destiny's Child came into the scene that my views started to change. For the first time, seeing Beyonce, a woman of my complexion with hips, thick legs/thighs just like mine, being hailed as beautiful by the media and my peers around me, made me start to accept my curves and see how beautiful they were."
Gorgeous, in and out, Kamari's biggest passion is fighting for human and animal rights. She's been active with the U.S. Fund for UNICEF and recently started working with the ASPCA, an animal rights organization.
She's a vegetarian and works out three to four times a week. She also loves protein shakes and Indian cuisine.
"My advice to women is instead of letting society and the media define your beauty, let it help you see how beautiful you are, just the way you are, by surrounding yourself with positive role models and people."
