Apparently, Sasha and Malia are too unique for their own good.
Everyone is going bananas for the First Daughters, and advertising execs want to jump on the bandwagon, but... they can't find any little black girls.
The president of Wilhemina's kids and teens division told New York Magazine:
"It’s a very specific age and a very specific ethnicity, so there aren’t that many girls that would necessarily fit the bill."
*blink*
Annnnnnnnnd... *blink* again.
Because, you know, cute adorable young black girls don't exist.
This has, as it should, pissed off blogger Danielle Belton, a.k.a. the Black Snob. So she's launching the "Cute Black Girls Are Everywhere, You Idiots" Campaign, where's she's asking readers to send in pictures of their adorable, daughters, grand-daughters, sisters, nieces, cousins and friends to prove that we exist. I'm going to round up pictures of my friends' kids and the little girls in my dance class.
We are not leprechauns. We really exist. And I should know; I was an impossibly adorable little black girl just a couple decades ago.
(Me and my dad, circa 1986. He's not a leprechaun either... but that's a different post for a different time....)
