‘You Win’: ‘RHOA’ Star Kenya Moore Calls Fellow Housewives Eva Marcille and Cynthia Bailey to Face Off in Throwback Photos

The women of “Real Housewives of Atlanta” are more than just reality stars, some of the cast have a history in the modeling world.

Housewives Kenya Moore, Cynthia Bailey, and Eva Marcille are flaunting their modeling days, proving to fans that not much has changed but time. 

Moore started the #ModelingChallenge Friday, April 17, with her co-stars Bailey and Marcille, by uploading a headshot that she did with Margaret Models 30 years ago. 

“#FBF #babykenyamy “zed” or “compcard” when I was modeling 30 years ago. I challenge @cynthiabailey10 and @evamarcille to post their old comp cards #modelchallenge,” Moore captioned her challenge photo.

Marcille was the first to respond to the challenge, writing, “Yassssss 🌻🌻🌻 , I accept now let me go find it.”

“I accept & I just posted mine😜#beforehousewives,” Bailey then responded. 

Marcille took to her page Friday to upload an old comp card photo of herself from what appears to be from her days on “America’s Next Top Model,” which she won during the third cycle. 

“This challenge is so cute. Thanks for tagging me definitely took a walk down memory lane. #ModelChallenge #compcard #headshot 🍑,” Marcille captioned her photo of her rocking a short curly ombre hairstyle.

“👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 Yes @evamarcille now nominate other #realmodels #modelchallenge #compcards,” Moore responded to Marcille’s headshot. 

“❤️,” Bailey commented on her fellow cast member’s page. 

Up next, Bailey posted a series of modeling photos from back in the day that ranged from a curly hair Bailey to a short pixie cut look. 

“I am a day late because I had to have my mom text me one of my old modeling comp cards from 30 years ago to accept @thekenyamoore #modelchallenge,” Bailey wrote.

“I was with @wilhelminamodels & this picture was from a @neimanmarcus editorial spread. Where is yours @evamarcille #theface #cynthiacheekbonesbailey #classicsnevergooutofstyle #muva,” she added.

After Bailey uploaded a series of modeling photos, fans in her comments section believed that she won the challenge. 

“Challenge over! Er’body else sat down! You the best to ever walk a runway! We ain’t even mention the cheekbones. Real ☝🏽 since day ☝🏽! 🔥🔥🔥.” 

“Cynthiabailey10 shut the game down!!!”

“You win!” 

“The One.”

With another photo of Bailey rocking a curly ’do, Marcille presumably suggested that Bailey won the challenge as well. 

“Ova,” Marcille wrote. 

Moore didn’t necessarily claim that Bailey won the #ModelChallenge, but did give credit that Bailey is the cheekbone queen. 

“Cheekbone queen 👸🏾.” 

With Bailey serving looks back to back, it appears that Bailey took the #ModelChallenge crown among the “RHOA” cast.
