The 17 year-old Sessilee Lopez , who recently made her runway debut during the fall fashion shows in New York , will appear in the May issue of two magazines -- Flaunt in Espanol and Trace. "It`s their 50th anniversary, and it's a huge issue because it's their Black Girls Rule," Sessilee said. "They take the top 10 black girls from the top 10 agencies, and I'm one of the girls!"

A Philadelphia native, she lived in St.Lucy County before relocating to New Jersey earlier this year. Her modeling career took off when she came to an open casting call at IMG. Sessilee is featured at Models.com as Model Of The Week.
