America's Next Top Role Model
ANTM is moving onto its 17th cycle, and it's going to be an all star one. But before all that, I'll tell you who my favorites are. But since I'm not a model and just a model-wannabe, I won't just count their modeling skills but their awesome personalities as well. I've only seen the latest cycles though so I won't be able to count the first ten cycles. xP
Best Role Models
- Ann Ward, Cycle 15 (Winner) :: I think it's safe to say that almost everyone loved her awkwardness, which would always result to her stunning and amazing photos. Everybody said she'd crack under pressure, but she had five consecutive best photos - and I think during the 2nd week she even cried because she didn't think she'd done well, but she still ended up winning the best photo of the week. She didn't let the intimidation of the girls or the pressure of being someone like them or even her height get to her; she only focused on herself. Guess what? She was the first one to win a spread in Italian Vogue and when she came back in cycle 16, she was even more beautiful than she was before. She is truly an inspiration. I love her.
- Raina Hein, Cycle 14 (1st runner-up) :: Yes, Krista had been better than her during the ANTM days. She had a stronger walk and fierce personality, but she always backstabbed Raina (along with Alexandra and some other insecure girls) because of her vibrant personality. Raina never did anything to them, and tried her best to just stay out of the drama and looking as fierce as she ever could. Tyra loves her wolf-like eyes; I love how she's like a ninja. Looking at her portfolio now, you'd never think she was the nerd in high school, who crawled out of her shy little bubble and gained confidence through volleyball. And from there, she started discovering her passion for modeling. A few months ago she signed a deal with Wilhemina Models, a prize for the ANTM winner. See? She didn't need to win, because she could do it on her own. The latest news about her? She's been asked to visit Dubai twice during their fashion week (Vera Wang), she's made her first editorial video, she's included in a European commercial, and she's going to appear in a music video which will be released some time this month. (Oh yes, I keep updated with this Minnesota ninja right here. She is that fabulous.)
- Laura Kirkpatrick, Cycle 13 (1st runner-up) :: I love Nicole [Fox] as much as the next girl, but Laura captured me a tad more than her because of her dyslexia. In one challenge, the girls had to interview Jessica Lowndes, one of the cast of 90210 (love her by the way). And Laura, having severe dyslexia, had trouble reading the teleprompter but she still went on with the show. It wasn't only for that time but also when they were going to do their very first Cover Girl commercial shoot and they had to write their own scripts. And again, Laura has trouble memorizing stuff, but guess what? She pulled that commercial off. She, Raina, Jessica, and two other past-ANTM models actually did a shoot together.
I also loved Nicole [Fox] (cycle 13, winner) as I said earlier, Anya Kop (cycle 10, runner-up), Jessica Serfaty (cycle 14), Hannah Jones (cycle 16), Brittani Kline (cycle 16, winner), and Kayla Ferrell (cycle 15). I love Kayla, she's wonderful. :)
I was supposed to continue this and name my list of "worst models from ANTM," but I guess that'd be kind of rude. You know, even if they don't know about this, it's still best to respect everyone. Hahaha. Okay. Chow~

You alone should define who you are. Don't let anyone tell you who you should be or what you should do when you what's best for you.
That's about it, I guess. for now. :)
