Q) Who is your favorite designer?

 

A) I don’t have a favorite designer.

 

Q) Why did you decide to apply for the show?

 

A) I was hoping it would give me more publicity for modeling. I wanted to start getting higher rates for the jobs I’ve been doing already.

 

Q) What was the audition process like for you?

 

A) It was probably a lot easier than most girls. I just walked over there and saw there were like a thousand girls and I asked how long they had been there. They said like 4-6 hours and I said, “Hell no!” I had my book and I walked away and asked someone if I could take a Polaroid and they brought me up front. I got into the audition in front of everyone so I was really lucky!

 

Q) What was it like meeting Tyra Banks?

 

A) I have lived in LA and been in the business and I’ve actually seen her out before. I actually know her manager so it wasn’t really a big deal.

 

Q) What did you learn most about modeling from the show?

 

A) Absolutely nothing. I learned much more about modeling on my own from my previous modeling jobs.

 

Q) Why do you think they chose Brandy over you?

 

A) Drama, it’s television and it’s entertaining. It was unexpected.

 

Q) Do you think that Brandy will be able to put her attitude aside in order to succeed?

 

A) I don’t know. I am not really sure how bad her attitude was. I wasn’t there when she had an attitude, but I saw clips of when she had it. I am not sure what exactly what was going on there.

 

Q) What did you like most about living in the loft?

 

A) I really hated it. There was no privacy. You couldn’t go to the bathroom without someone hearing you through the doors. There were cameras everywhere. I remember right when we first got to the house I thought I was sneaking into a room to change and I looked up and saw cameras. I like privacy so it was a little too much for me.

 

Q) Now that you are no longer on the show are you going back to waitressing?

 

A) Oh heck no! Waitressing I had to put down as my career because I couldn’t say I was already a model. Modeling was my main source of income and waitressing was just until I had a steady flow. Now I’m just going back to the entertainment business in general.

 

Q) Have you maintained the new look you were given from the show?

 

A) It took me a couple of weeks just to lose the weight. I had to gain pounds just when the show was about to air! My hair is the same though.

 

Q) Did you get to keep any merchandise from the designers that you shared the loft with?

 

A) Tyra gave me a purse, but that was edited. So, no one saw that.

 

Q) Who do you see winning the competition?

 

A) I am not really sure. Just like how I got cut first, you never know anything. I don’t know, maybe Naima because she has a dancer’s background, which is great for photography.

 

Q) What would you like to say to your fans and supporters of you and the show?

 

A) You’ll still be seeing me because I have tons of stuff coming up. So, thank you!
