Was Dazzler supposed to be Black?

I just learn some interesting news about Dazzler, the disco mutant queen who later became a member of the X-Men.
- She was a collaboration between Marvel Comics and the legendary Disco record label, Casablanca Records.
- Her original name was Disco Queen.
- Casablanca Records wanted her to be Black. In fact...

- I'm very laid back and easy going. I like to meet people, read, talk about politics, culture and life. I am a huge comic book fan (X-Men family and Wonder Woman) I also want to say that I am a proud black gay man...no 'down low' drama here

Wow!! I learn so much reading your blog!! First Wonder Woman has a black sister, now this!! Very interesting. Looks like she may have been slightly modeled after Grace Jones too.
I think it worked out better.
There was meant to be a movie with Cher too.
I love Dazzler
