Ann Markley, the athletic beauty from Cycle 3 of America’s Next Top Model, is in the newest Wheat Thins commercial.
In the commercial, Ann has a showdown with the Wheat Thins. Don’t worry, she wins! For some reason, this commercial reminds me of those old Doritos commercials starring Ali Landry.

Ann is also all over the Wheat Thins website. Good for her to land such a big campaign! Sure, Wheat Thins aren’t sexy, but it pays the bills!

Yaya DaCosta, the runner-up in Cycle 3 of America’s Next Top Model will be on next season of Ugly Betty! According to Entertainment Weekly’s Michael Ausiello, Yaya will play Wilhelmina Slater’s daughter, Nico.
Nico first appeared on the scene in season two and was played by Jowharah Jones. There’s no stated reason for the recast, but Ausiello tells us Yaya will appear in several episodes this season and will get caught up in a new mystery!
This is great news for Yaya, as it will be wonderful exposure for her acting career. Plus, Ugly Betty is a really fun show!

Tyra Banks stepped out in an androgynous look at the BET Awards at the Shrine Auditorium in Los Angeles last night. Her look was no doubt inspired by Michael Jackson, as many stars payed tribute to the musical icon through their fashion choices, thoughtful words and musical performances.
I think this look is quite a risk for Tyra, but she definitely pulls it off. It’s once of her better red carpet looks in a while.

The BET Awards were started in 2001 to honor African American achievements in music, acting, sports and entertainment. In its eight years, it has turned into …read more

The awards ceremony, which is in its 11th year, was held at the on Sunday night at the Eli and Edythe Broad Stage in Santa Monica, California.

I think Eva looked great with her ruffled white dress and relaxed hair and accessories. There are rumors flying that Eva took home an award at the ceremony, but she’s not on the official winners list, so I’m not sure. Can anyone help me …read more

Last night’s Top Models in Action segment featured Cycle 3 runner-up Yaya DaCsota. Since appearing on America’s Next Top Model, Yaya has worked hard on her acting career and has quite a few successes! She’s appeared in a few movies, did a guest stint on All My Children and has gotten a lot of praise for her off-Broadway appearances.

I love Yaya and if you think outside the box of modeling, she’s one of the most successful contestants to come from ANTM. I think it’s great Top Model highlighted her.
Next week is the season premiere of ANTM! Who do you …read more

This week’s Top Models in Action was Cycle 3 winner Eva Marcille. Eva is one of the more successful winners of America’s Next Top Model. After her win, she did some commercial work before concentrating on her acting career. Currently, she has a regular gig on The Young and the Restless, playing a young mother named Tyra Hamilton.

i think it’s interesting that they really focused on Eva’s engagement to actor Lance Goss.
I wonder who is going to be next week’s Top Model in Action?

I really like Toccara’s new haircut. It’s sleek and fresh and makes her look far younger than the longer, curly look she was sporting a few weeks ago. And the dress is pretty cute too!
Guests included Hot 97’s Angie Martinez & Miss Info, Rapper Freaky Zeaky, DJ Clue, Fabolous, Ron Brownz, Bobby Valentino and The Retro Kidz. The part looks like it was a lot of …read more
