The southern belle chatted about why her elimination was a complete surprise, what it’s like to be a brunette, who she wants to see go all the way and who in the house she just didn’t like. You’ll be surprised at her answers!

Yaya DaCosta is getting great reviews early in the run for First Breeze of Summer. Yaya plays Lucretia, a young woman who had to make difficult choices to protect her family. The play revolves around Lucretia when she’s an old woman, but there are flashbacks to points in her life that explain everything that’s happening in the present. Yaya is Lucretia during the flashbacks.
Broadway World recently caught up with Yaya and interviewed her about the role. They chat about how… More »
B. Scott interviewed Eva Marcille last week. They chat about the difference between LA and Hollywood, why she changed her name and moved to LA, her new focus on acting, how modeling in LA is different than modeling in New York, her relationship with Lance Gross, and about her role on The Young and the Restless.
She looks like she had a lot of fun with this! She seems really happy and stable now in both her career and her personal… More »
Celebs Gone Good caught up with Cycle 10 winner Whitney Thompson at the premier of Nigel Barker’s photography exhibit, “A Sealed Fate.” Whitney mentions that she recently adopted a puppy from The Humane Society–and named it Fiona!
She talks to them about supporting animal rights, her new puppy, being ANTM’s first plus-sized model, and more.
“I mean it’s obviously incredibly messed up what’s going on in the world, and I obviously don’t support it; and I think it’s so great that Nigel… More »
Executive producer Ken Mok sat down with online magazine After Ellen to chat about the upcoming season of America’s Next Top Model. It’s the briefest interview ever–After Ellen was mostly interested in knowing whether or not there would be a lesbian or bisexual contestant this cycle.
Ken promises that this cycle is going to be an exciting one.
“I think you’ll have just as much variety of contestants on the show as you’ve had in every cycle,” he said. “It’s not a… More »
Fatima Siad, the second-runner up from Cycle 10 of America’s Next Top Model made an appearance at the Boston Fitness Expo over the weekend. She talks about Boston, choosing between Wilhelmina, Ford and Elite and more.
I love that she and Anya are getting an apartment together and that she returned to college after the show. She’s really grown on me since ANTM ended and I hope she has a successful career!… More »
Image details: The CW Network’s Upfront served by picapp.com Fatima Siad has been getting quite a bit of press lately! First, her personal editorial, and now an interview in the Boston Globe! The interview has a lot of the same themes–her circumcision and coming public with it, her modeling career and even looking like Iman.
I thought this quote was interesting:
” kept calling me Baby Iman. First of all, I don’t look anything like Iman. She is beautiful and amazing,… More »
Speakers Spotlight did a piece on Jay Manuel last week. It briefly takes you from his birthplace of Scarborough, Ontario to his current gigs of producing America’s Next Top Model, hosting Style Her Famous and Canada’s Next Top Model, his new makeup line and being a fashion correspondent for E!
This video doesn’t do more than celebrate Jay, there’s no real interview element or revealing moments. But it’s still fun to see just how much he’s been doing lately! He’s crazy… More »
Whitney Thompson appeared on The Big Idealate last week. It’s a pretty good interview. She chats about her supportive family, dealing with adversity, dealing with discrimination and her message to the modeling industry.
She’s a good interviewee. She’s confident and articulate and has a lot of important things to say. I know I’m harsh on her, but I do wish her the best of luck in her career! She has an important message for the fashion industry and for young… More »
Here is a short interview of Whitney Thompson on Fox News! I love the guy who is interviewing her! He clearly knows nothing about modeling or the fashion industry.
Also, Whitney doesn’t let him get a word in! Poor guy!
While I appreciate Whitney’s cause, I really hate how she lumps all thin models into the category of “unhealthy.” Yes, some models are unhealthy and are hurting their bodies to be models, but there are other models out there who are naturally… More »
Here is the short video clip of Whitney Thompson on Extra. Again, it’s more of a short recap clip than a revealing interview, but what sort of friend tells their size-10 pal that she’s fat, even if it’s for a modeling competition? You could at least choose more sensitive language.
I also wonder how this 13 year old cousin feels as constantly being paraded out as her source of inspiration. Does she feel proud? Or embarrassed?… More »
Here is a short video clip of Whitney Thompson on Entertainment Tonight. It’s not really an interview so much as it is a recap of Whitney’s win and some behind the scenes footage of a photo shoot. But it does say that her Covergirl ad will be in the next issue of People, so be sure to watch for that!

America’s Next Top Model Cycle 10 winner Whitney Thompson appeared on Live with Regis and Kelly on Thursday morning.
She chats about
While I think Whitney does have an important message about young girls being comfortable and proud of their bodies, she’s becoming one-note very, very quickly. CariDee English didn’t even become a psoriasis crusader until after her initial Covergirl contract expired, and even then, she spoke about more stuff than that during interviews…. More »
