One day, I went to protest with her and some friends from my class. Shouting for a cause, something we had to fight for together. A month later, a famous magazine came out in France with my face on the cover. It looked like May &#8217;68!

I&#8217;m a musician: I play the violin. I studied violin for 12 years at the Paris Conservatory, and I&#8217;m a singer; I studied lyric singing for six years at the Paris Conservatory, and I was in the youth choir of the Paris Philharmonic Orchestra.<br \/>\n2. Even though I studied classical music, I love rock music. I was in a rock band when I was younger, and I still play rock music with my friends. I can play electric violin, it&#8217;s sick! Also, my favorite band is Pink Floyd.<br \/>\n3. I love to understand the brain and the different connections inside, especially with art. It&#8217;s so strange what happens when you listen to a song or look at a painting. You will feel sad or maybe super happy without understanding it, and it&#8217;s so interesting! I read a lot of books about it, and I also love to understand people&#8217;s minds; even if I&#8217;m not sure it&#8217;s possible, I just try.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><span class=\"modelname\">Omolara<\/span><br \/>\n\n\t\t<style type=\"text\/css\">\n\t\t\t#gallery-3 {\n\t\t\t\tmargin: auto;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-3 .gallery-item {\n\t\t\t\tfloat: left;\n\t\t\t\tmargin-top: 10px;\n\t\t\t\ttext-align: center;\n\t\t\t\twidth: 33%;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-3 img {\n\t\t\t\tborder: 2px solid #cfcfcf;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-3 .gallery-caption {\n\t\t\t\tmargin-left: 0;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t\/* see gallery_shortcode() in wp-includes\/media.php *\/\n\t\t<\/style>\n\t\t<div id='gallery-3' class='gallery galleryid-71342 gallery-columns-3 gallery-size-full'><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon portrait'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/i.mdel.net\/newfaces\/i\/2023\/12\/mdcselects_omolaraahmed01.jpg' title=\"\" data-rl_title=\"\" class=\"rl-gallery-link\" data-rl_caption=\"courtesy Omolara Ahmed\" data-rel=\"lightbox-gallery-3\" data-magnific_type=\"gallery\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"952\" height=\"1333\" src=\"https:\/\/i.mdel.net\/newfaces\/i\/2023\/12\/mdcselects_omolaraahmed01.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-3-71351\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i.mdel.net\/newfaces\/i\/2023\/12\/mdcselects_omolaraahmed01.jpg 952w, https:\/\/i.mdel.net\/newfaces\/i\/2023\/12\/mdcselects_omolaraahmed01-536x750.jpg 536w, https:\/\/i.mdel.net\/newfaces\/i\/2023\/12\/mdcselects_omolaraahmed01-731x1024.jpg 731w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 952px) 100vw, 952px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt>\n\t\t\t\t<dd class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-3-71351'>\n\t\t\t\tcourtesy Omolara Ahmed\n\t\t\t\t<\/dd><\/dl><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon portrait'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/i.mdel.net\/newfaces\/i\/2023\/12\/mdcselects_omolaraahmed02.jpg' title=\"\" data-rl_title=\"\" class=\"rl-gallery-link\" data-rl_caption=\"courtesy Omolara Ahmed\" data-rel=\"lightbox-gallery-3\" data-magnific_type=\"gallery\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"952\" height=\"1333\" src=\"https:\/\/i.mdel.net\/newfaces\/i\/2023\/12\/mdcselects_omolaraahmed02.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-3-71350\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i.mdel.net\/newfaces\/i\/2023\/12\/mdcselects_omolaraahmed02.jpg 952w, https:\/\/i.mdel.net\/newfaces\/i\/2023\/12\/mdcselects_omolaraahmed02-536x750.jpg 536w, https:\/\/i.mdel.net\/newfaces\/i\/2023\/12\/mdcselects_omolaraahmed02-731x1024.jpg 731w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 952px) 100vw, 952px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt>\n\t\t\t\t<dd class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-3-71350'>\n\t\t\t\tcourtesy Omolara Ahmed\n\t\t\t\t<\/dd><\/dl><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon portrait'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/i.mdel.net\/newfaces\/i\/2023\/12\/mdcselects_omolaraahmed03.jpg' title=\"\" data-rl_title=\"\" class=\"rl-gallery-link\" data-rl_caption=\"courtesy Omolara Ahmed\" data-rel=\"lightbox-gallery-3\" data-magnific_type=\"gallery\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"952\" height=\"1333\" src=\"https:\/\/i.mdel.net\/newfaces\/i\/2023\/12\/mdcselects_omolaraahmed03.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-3-71349\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i.mdel.net\/newfaces\/i\/2023\/12\/mdcselects_omolaraahmed03.jpg 952w, https:\/\/i.mdel.net\/newfaces\/i\/2023\/12\/mdcselects_omolaraahmed03-536x750.jpg 536w, https:\/\/i.mdel.net\/newfaces\/i\/2023\/12\/mdcselects_omolaraahmed03-731x1024.jpg 731w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 952px) 100vw, 952px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt>\n\t\t\t\t<dd class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-3-71349'>\n\t\t\t\tcourtesy Omolara Ahmed\n\t\t\t\t<\/dd><\/dl><br style=\"clear: both\" \/>\n\t\t<\/div>\n<\/p>\n<p><strong>Who:<\/strong><br \/>\nOmolara Ahmed (<a href=\"https:\/\/instagram.com\/omolaraahmed_\" target=\"_blank\">@omolaraahmed_<\/a>) \u2014 175 cm \/ 5&#8217;9&#8243; \u2014 Nigerian from Lagos, Nigeria \u2014 born October 11th \u2014 she\/her.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Where:<\/strong><br \/>\nArayii Model Management (mother agency), <a href=\"\/\/models.com\/agency\/girl\">GIRL (Paris)<\/a>, <a href=\"\/\/models.com\/agency\/Tank-Agency\">Tank Agency  (Milan)<\/a>, <a href=\"\/\/models.com\/agency\/present-model-management\">PRESENT MODEL MANAGEMENT (London)<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>\u2014 Who is your favorite entertainer?<\/strong><br \/>\nBURNA BOY!<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u2014 How did you become a model?<\/strong><br \/>\nI&#8217;ve always loved fashion and been super interested in the fashion industry!
