Creator and star of hit TV series Insecure, Issa Rae has been chosen as the new face of cosmetics brand CoverGirl.
She announced the news on her Instagram with a heartfelt caption expressing how much it meant to her:
I remember being an awkward black girl in high school, reading the pages of my favorite magazines, casually flipping through @COVERGIRL ads, singing their slogan in my head. Never EVER in my life did I imagine I’d be one. I am SO honored and SO excited for what’s to come. Visit @COVERGIRL to learn more #COVERGIRLMADE
