Being the shortest and most outspoken in the house, “Eva the Diva” quickly became a threat. Yet, the sneers and comments from her competitors did not stop her from becoming the first Black girl to win America’s Next Top Model.

Now going by Eva Marcille, she is signed to LA models and can be seen walking red carpets with her sexy beau, Lance Gross. She recently made a Permanent cross over on the Soap The Young & The Restless after playing Tyra Hamilton a  young, single mother on a multi-episode arc.

The ladies in the house loved her free spirit, but her lack of modeling experience didn’t take her far in the competition and was the 2nd girl eliminated.

Re: ~ ANTM : Top Model Favourites ~ Where Are They Now? by mohawkchic(f): 3:45am On Aug 12, 2009

~Ta. . . . You didnt say why You hated didnt like Eva tho. . . grin

~I liked like b/c she was fiesty. . it was quite an unpredictable win too seeing how short she was compared to the other Models w/ ideal height!
Re: ~ ANTM : Top Model Favourites ~ Where Are They Now? by tpiah2: 1:08am On Aug 13, 2009
Camille seems lighter or is it just me.

Nice photo of Keenya- yes she did have a little weight gain during the show. Wasnt she the one who was uncomfortable with the dancing guys in Cape town? Or something like that.

Eva is very photogenic. Is she really biracial? She doesnt look it.


Bre was very outspoken. Pretty too. So is Naima.

Yaya is also ok though but somewhat confused about her heritage, though I could be wrong.

It seems Toccarra is trying to become the black Marilyn Monroe.

Mercedes is ok as well. .
Re: ~ ANTM : Top Model Favourites ~ Where Are They Now? by mohawkchic(f): 2:12am On Aug 13, 2009
~Nah it aint just you,Camille does look lighter,prolly lightening effect during shoots or on skin grin

~Nnenna, Cycle 6~
In the beginning, the Nigerian beauty’s top model potential never failed to impress the judges. She later became the subject of gossip in the house when she kissed a male model during a photo shoot, putting her relationship on the line. Suddenly, her passion began to fade and she was the 8th to be eliminated.

Today, Nnenna is signed to six modeling agencies, including Cover Management, Omodel Africa and Bookings Model.

She was quickly known as Queen Diva Furonda because she always wore a crown and loved to set house rules. A pretty girl, but soon eliminated for her lack of progress.

She is now promoting her own reality TV show called "Model Me TV" in North Hollywood and participates in campaigns for HIV prevention, an interest she acquired from Top Model.

Re: ~ ANTM : Top Model Favourites ~ Where Are They Now? by mohawkchic(f): 2:14am On Aug 13, 2009
~Jade, Cycle 6~
The so-called “undiscovered Supermodel,” had a striking appearance, but her lack of a modesty and “Miss Know It All” attitude slowly annoyed the judges. She made it far, but not far enough.

Since ANTM, Jade has signed to several agencies, including VMH Models in Vancouver and Dream Models in Singapore. She has done work in several countries such as Greece and India.

Re: ~ ANTM : Top Model Favourites ~ Where Are They Now? by mohawkchic(f): 2:15am On Aug 13, 2009
~Danielle, Cycle 6~
The southern girl from Little Rock rocked the competition with stunning photos, but when her southern accent became an issue, the judges doubted her. After promising to take speech classes and giving in to closing the gap between her teeth, in the end Danielle was deemed America’s Next Top Model.

The winner is signed to Click Models and is a spokesperson for Akademiks clothing line.

Re: ~ ANTM : Top Model Favourites ~ Where Are They Now? by mohawkchic(f): 2:15am On Aug 13, 2009
~Eugena, Cycle 7~
One of three Black girls in Season 7, Eugena worked her way up the competition. Her photos became better about half way through the cycle, but her condescending attitude didn't go over well with Tyra. Her journey was cut short as she was only the second runner-up.

Eugena is now signed to Photogenics and Target Models and can be found on runways across the globe.
Re: ~ ANTM : Top Model Favourites ~ Where Are They Now? by mohawkchic(f): 2:19am On Aug 13, 2009
~Jaslene, Cycle 8~
Miss Cha-Cha Diva was given a second chance as Cycle 8 was her second opportunity to impress Tyra and the judges. Jaslene's determination kept her at the top of the pack, never placing in the bottom two, and it paid off. She is the first Puerto Rican winner, and the third winner with Latina heritage.

Jaslene is now signed to Elite Model Management in Chicago, Miami and L.A. She is currently featured in an 8-page editorial in Jamrock magazine.

Lisa’s tall stature and unique look won her high points with the judges, but it wasn’t enough to get her to the top, as she was the 8th to be eliminated.

Lisa is signed to Fusion Model Management in South Africa and Major Model Management in New York

Re: ~ ANTM : Top Model Favourites ~ Where Are They Now? by mohawkchic(f): 2:22am On Aug 13, 2009

The diva who was known as the model who had to shave her head during the makeover episode, always delivered great photos. But later fell to the pressure and lost focus on the prize.

~Fatima, Cycle 10~
Fatima came into the competition with a powerful testimony to inspire others and revealed she was a victim of genital mutilation in her country, Somalia. But her story, past performances and a strong portfolio couldn’t save her as she placed third in the competition.

Fatima is signed to New York Model Management and outside of her modeling career, discusses her experience with female genital circumcision.
