Inside the pages of the June 2010 edition of ESSENCE magazine former America’s Next Top Model contestant-turned-actress YaYa Dacosta had a photo session in designer clothing by Burberry, Stella McCartney, Christian Louboutin, Topshop, Nicole Miller and much more. The urban publication also included a behind-the-scenes look at YaYa’s photo shoot. YaYa’s next film project is the The Kids Are All Right co-starring Annette Bening, Julianne Moore, Mark Ruffalo, Mia Wasikowska and Josh Hutcherson. Did you know that not only did YaYa attend Brown University but she’s of Brazilian, West African, Native American/Cherokee and Irish heritage? Beauty and smarts!
