I think fatima should have won hands down this girl exudes confidence, self esteem she's definetly got what it takes to become a top model. Also i feel that tyra and the panel made major mistakes in choosing americas next top models i also feel that they may have some regets in choosing them especially when all these runner ups have major contract with big time modeling agencies. For i.e. Gina choe, poor gina who got knock down by jade i think that jade should have been kicked off the show i don't like her i despise her no one should be put through what gina went through especially all these girls come so far away from home and they have no family who can give them support. Its hard when u don't have anyone u can lean on for support. Anyway getting back to runner up models beside gina who got major modeling contracts such as: bianca golden, fatima siad.

i think is cool that ethiopian or somalians for this instance to succeed because i haven't heard so much successful stories from ethiopians. we need to stop club hoping and do some school work and strive to improve ourselves and our family situation how many of you know that many ethiopians are starving right now. nope and if you did you aren't doing anything about it.

I have only small regards for "models". I feel they are spending so much time on their lower body than the "upper", i.e. their brain. They romanticize themselves; spending much time worrying whether they will have some bumps on their face or add 1/100000 "extra" pound and leaving their brain empty. Please watch Miss Congeniality (2000)to see what a joke they are!

Well said Hagos:
Fatuma should use this opportunity to talk about the atrocities of Weyane in Somalia (her mother's nationality) and Ethiopia (her father's nationality).

Quote:
"Good Luck Fatuma. And dont forget that there are millions of somalian and ethiopian girls that are smart and beautiful as you but dying with weyane( The Current ethiopian government) anti human actions. Therefore, make sure you raise this issue in the places you get the chance to expose thier situations. Since, you might would've been one of the victims if you still had lived in somalia."

Watch it Fatima, The business you are in is like a sugar factory that uses a sugar cane and dispose of the very fiber that provided the component to make the sugar. This is very temporary and dangerous business.

Get some education and try to lean on that. As you know there is nothing "holly" in Hollywood or show biz. Wake up!
