Career and Net Worth
Amina Blue had always wanted to be a model from a young age. Coming from a devoted Muslim family, her father was against her wish and wanted her to be a normal Muslim girl. She took her dreams seriously and submitted her photos to Face Time Agency, the New York-based modeling agency at age 19 when she heard of a casting call for a music video.
That’s how Blue started her career as a video vixen. Her early works include appearing in Busta Rhymes’ “Thank You” featuring West, Q-Tip, and Lil Wayne, as well as in Rich Gang’s “Everyday” (which was never released). Her other music video credits include Future and A$AP Ferg.
Blue’s major breakthrough came in 2015 when she was booked for Kanye West’s fashion line Yeezy’s debut runway show. She walked down the ramp along with featured models Naomi Campbell, Veronica Webb, and Liya Kebede during New York Fashion Week, held in February 2015.
She walked for the label for the next two seasons, including the runway show held at Madison Square Garden in New York City in February 2016, which is her most-watched fashion show.
While walking the runway during the Yeezy Season 4 show, she stopped halfway, took off her high-heeled shoes, and continued to walk barefoot. She later said that she wasn’t comfortable with the shoe and hence she took them off.
As of 2024, Amina Blue’s net worth is estimated to be roughly $1 million.
