Trinidadian and Ethiopian hip-hop model Angel Fershgenet updates one of the top-selling photos of World War II as she takes on the late actress Betty Grable’s iconic pose in this month’s Vibe Magazine.
Grable’s bathing suit photo became the number-one pin-up girl of the World War II era. Years later in an interview, Playboy founder Hugh Hefner says it was his inspiration for creating his magazine.
Meanwhile in the issue, DC native Fershgenet admits to being a serious speed demon. “I’m a reckless driver. I’ve had three traffic warrants in three different states since I’ve been driving [laughs],” says sexy beauty. “The fastest I’ve driven is 130 mph, and I think it was a Dodge Charger. I love speeding and cars. I get a serious rush. It’s ridiculous.”
No Angel, what’s ridiculous is that if Grable’s pose is considered iconic, what do we make of YOUR photo?
That my friends is truly displaying your “ass-ets!”

wow very nice
come on Grable’s pose was classic and iconic this is not even a good take off – she looks like a hooker – look how her legs and arms are so different. She’s pushing her hips and ass out while Grable’s tucked in hiding herself and peeking over her shoulder.
gabby doesn’t have an ass to stick out and i think angel lola luv did and amazing job get over it. i bet you if it wa some white chick that did you wouldn’t be complaning.
a hooker? wow. well sorry if Black women are sexier than false modesty would allow. that’s a perfect pinup, appropriate to the times. push in angel’s buttom to make it “classic?” how? and for what purpose?
hi there iam hennok you are good looking hot sexy girl .may i f%$k you once?
She does look like a stripper not a hooker but, she’s not modest and yeah I think they should have made it a little less trashy this picture is really an insult to pin-ups.
why does it always have to be about race? seriously? get over it, betty grable looks better shut up.
