Kenya Moore: Update

Kenya Summer Moore was born on January 24, 1971 in Detroit, Michigan, USA. She is an American film and television actress, producer, beauty queen, model and author.

Kenya Moore competed in numerous beauty pageants in 1993; first becoming Miss Michigan USA, then Miss USA 1993, and then competing in Miss Universe 1993, where she finished fifth. At Miss Universe 1993, Kenya was heavily booed after becoming one of the 10 semifinalists.

This may have been attributed to Kenya's entry into the top 10, while Miss Mexico 1993 failed to make the cut. The pageant gained notoriety again in 2007 when Miss USA Rachel Smith was booed at the Miss Universe pageant in Mexico for the same reason, except Smith slipped and landed on her bottom and barely made top 5.

Kenya Moore is also  best known for her roles in movies such as Waiting to Exhale, Deliver Us from Eva and the 2007 Lindsay Lohan thriller I Know Who Killed Me. One of her best acting roles came in the independent film Trois which also starred Gretchen Palmer and CSI: Crime Scene Investigation star Gary Dourdan. Trois went on to become one of the highest grossing African-American films of 2000.

Kenya Moore has appeared on the cover of several major magazines, including Glamour, Seventeen, Ebony and Essence. Kenya has also been featured in several music videos, including R&B group Shai's "I Don't Wanna Be Alone", rapper Nas' "Street Dreams" and the Jay-Z & Jermaine Dupri Grammy-nominated hit "Money Ain't a Thang". We still have to wait another several days before we can catch Kenya Moore’s debut on Season 5 of The Real Housewives of Atlanta, but as she inches closer to reality TV stardom. Kenya Moore was very versatile person,if she wants to do something,shes eager to do it,the best that she can.
