The girl in the middle in the blue dress and spots painted on her skin looks like a woman that I know. This woman is very beautiful, statuesque (she' 5'11" ) and has model potential! The problem is she's ratchet like hell!

Very much so!
I see Jamaican faces in many types of Ivorians. Kru speakers, Senoufo, Mande speakers, Akans etc!

i ll make more post like that and see if depending on the style or physics, we can see a difference
for the style it can be somewhat easy, cuz from the pic posted i have notice the difference

Sybellah: also u 2 guessed right for #2, however she remind me some Bhete ivo actress, so i would have guess kru for her

Pic 2 is Agnes Ntow a Ghanaian Beauty Queen


The fact you said she looks Bhete kinda makes my point that Ivorians and Ghanaians look very similar IMO.

For e.g. Dwain Chambers - Jamaican British sprinter and Juice Head



Looks Northern Ivorian to me. What do you think?

uumh i think he looks more kru or akan than north in my opinion
i wouldn't guess malinke or senoufo for him
but: Agni, Akye, Adioukrou, (these 3 are akan ethnic groups) or maybe Bhete (but not so much tho)
