Supermodel Muslim Halima Aden: ‘Why I quit’
https://c.files.bbci.co.uk/EF92/prod...halima_011.jpg
[Halima, 23, is in St Cloud, Minnesota, where she grew up surrounded by other Somalis. She's wearing ordinary clothes and no makeup, cheerfully petting her dog, Coco. "I'm Halima from Kakuma," she says, referring to the refugee camp in Kenya, where she was born. Others have described her as a trailblazing hijab-wearing supermodel or as the first hijabi model to feature on the cover of Vogue magazine - but she left all that behind two months ago, saying the fashion industry clashed with her Muslim faith.] ["It's the most comfortable I've ever felt in an interview, " she laughs. "Because I didn't spend 10 hours getting ready, in an outfit I couldn't keep."] https://c.files.bbci.co.uk/11AF8/pro...1206813512.jpg [On the runway for Tommy Hilfiger London Spring 2020] https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/stories-55653029 |
Standard at best.

she choose her religion over getting paid mega bucks?
good for her, staunch as you like. |
I read this yesterday, it was an interesting article. Gotta respect someone who values their own sense of morality over profit.

People are entitled to their beliefs whatever religion they are, and if she chose her religion over her job then that is up to her, is it a news story, I don't think so
