Miss USA, Cheslie Kryst, praised Kenya and told her: ‘Thank you so much!! It was great to finally meet you. And yesssss still fabulous ❤️❤️❤️’

Someone said, ‘This is why it’s always pisses me off when people ridicule or dismiss your title. This wasn’t just a beauty pageant title. This was a moment when girls of melanin all over the country saw that they didn’t have to have blonde hair and blue eyes to be considered beautiful or American. You weren’t just a part of history; you were an inspiration and still are.’

Another follower posted: ‘You sure did change the perception & gave little brown girls like myself a reason to smile back then!❤️’

A fan wrote: ‘I remember it like it was yesterday… I was a little girl named Kenya from Detroit… to see you up there looking like a real-life Barbie doll, was beyond iconic for me! It truly was…. I’m so happy that you have your king 🤴🏾 and your princess 👸🏽 now! Remember, you don’t need to be a perfect mom, just be a happy mom and everything will be just fine! I have nothing but love 💕 for you guys!!! ❤️❤️❤️’

Speaking of beauties, not too long ago, Kenya made her fans happy and posted a couple of new pics f baby Brooklyn Daly on her very own social media account that her mom had created.
