Somali Tiktok

[heygirlhey84]

She does have Somali features but you can still see cadaan influence especially in her skin tone, the lightskin-obsessed ana arab warriors try to use her as the face of Somalinimo when there are plenty gorgeous full Somalis. I've only seen people claim mixed people like this in the African American community where the one drop rule applies (which is another issue but not my business lol)

I remember when I first discovered her she did that audio from in the heights where it’s like “my mom is Dominican my dad is Cuban” or something like that except she used Somali and Swedish and at the end she said she refers to herself as Somali whenever people ask. She definitely has the features and looks Somali and looks so much like her mother, but has pale skin which can be super common with mixed Somalis. Does anyone in the UK know if she has a lot of clout since that is where she’s based? Not to glaze but she definitely is celebrity material and can easily replace Maya Jama when it comes to half somali representation for example lol

I’m from the UK and I wouldn’t say she’s known, she’s a model and an influencer but not mainstream whatsoever

Maya jama is getting old and will be irrelevant in a few years. Idk why you would want more half Somali representation lol. Why not full Somalis?

I didn’t mean it like that….i just likened the two because they have similar backgrounds that’s literally it lol

The most famous Somalis currently have to be Beta Squad (UK only ), Maya Jama, Barkhad Abdi (Bc of memes ) , Mo Farah, Rageh Omar (UK only), Ayan Hirsi Ali, K’naan, and Alisha Boe

Beta squad aren’t that bad. None of these people are famous famous though. Like A-lister or even B-list celebs.

They’re all popular in their areas, especially Mo Farah, Ayan Hersi (for better or for worse), and Rageh Omar (he married into the British noble class, insanity)

Mona Touugard too, although she’s half, and other active models like Ugbaad Abdi and Halima Aden are popular on modelling sites

Influencer wise I’d say Rayan Xasan (all over Pinterest) Ladan Farah and Samira Ahmed are the big three

Historically it would have been Iman but she’s been out of the game for too long. Mo Farah works for reer uk but I think he’s also retired? So his influence will be disappearing. K’naan could work as Somali rep for US but also he’s past his prime
