Ala’a Skyy, Rihanna’s adorable mini-me, has landed her first modeling contract!
The 7-year-old is to become a brand ambassador for The Mane Choice.
She will become the face of the natural hair-care brand after she went viral after Rihanna posted her mini-doppelganger on Instagram.
“Not only does she have an amazing attitude and work ethic at such a young age, she also loves her hair,” The Mane Choice founder and CEO Courtney Adeleye told Allure.
“She understands the benefits of using great products. It’s amazing!”
Rihanna posted a picture of Ala’a for her 74.3m followers on Instagram last month.
The Work singer wrote: “Almost drop my phone. how?” alongside her post.
The photo was taken by the little girl’s mother Bria Kay on Instagram. Her daughter’s own @iamhoneyy__ account already has more than 30,000 followers.
Ala’a was thrilled to have her picture reposted on Rihanna’s Instagram page.
Supermodel Tyra Banks also shared the same picture on her Instagram page.
“S.O.S. PLEASE SOMEONE HELP ME identify @badgalriri’s #freshfierceface mini-me!” she captioned the photo.
The America’s Next Top Model creator sent Ala’a a personal invitation to audition for a spot in her newest project, Modelland.
Supermodel Miranda Kerr wrote the girl was “adorable,” whereas Snoop Dogg asked Rihanna, “When did u have a baby?”
Khadijah Haqq, one of Khloé Kardashian’s best friends, also shared her thoughts on Rihanna’s lookalike.
“At least you know what your daughter would look like,” she commented.
Orange Is The New Black’s Uzo Aduba wrote, “Legit WOW,” and Lala Anthony was nearly speechless.
