Diahann Carroll
The ultimate gorgeous black Hollywood diva, Diahann Carroll, like many women on this list, got her start in modeling, and she specifically was a famous fabulous face for Ebony. But Carroll had more than modeling as plans for her future, because the beauty would go on to be the first African American woman with her own television show, playing a non-stereotypical role in Julia. She was also an Academy Award nominee for her work in the 1974 classic, Claudine. At 77, she’s still a mainstay on television, and she still look fab-u-lous. Don’t you agree?
