Beverly Johnson‘s opening up about racism she says she faced during her career … but one moment’s kinda new to her — despite happening about 40 years ago.
Here’s the deal … BJ told Page Six she pulled up to Eileen Ford‘s 90th birthday party back in 2012 — about two years before EF died — and her friends were talking about the old days when someone asked if she remembered a certain hotel draining the pool back in the ’80s.
The mother-of-one added tons of stuff like that would happen to her in the modeling world just because of her skin color … she didn’t elaborate with Page Six, but her 2015 memoir ‘The Face That Changed It All’ and her 2020 op-ed about persistent racism in the industry both hit on other instances.
