The powerful, the most intimidating, the misunderstood, the fierce, and the list can go on and on. Bitches may either hate her, or love her. She's no other than, Alexandria Everett. She's your girl-next-door from California, and although she looks like someone from my school, it ain't the reason why I like her.
She first appeared on the eyes of the viewers on America's Next Top Model Cycle 16. There, she confronted 13 other girls, aiming for the prize of an Italian Vogue spread. Well, prior to the competition, Alexandria or Lex, have appeared on various ads and runways.

During cycle 16, she was got into lots of fights resulting to all the girls hating her. As the girls kept on hating her, the more Alex's drive to be better grew. She watched as more and more of the girls that hated her were sent home week after week. One very touching line that I could never forget Alex had said was, " I'm strong, they're weak, And I'm gonna last longer".

And wew, it blew me away. That moment on, I idolized Alex. And frickin' said to myself, I'm gonna frickin watch this show.
So there, she got as far as Top 4. But, I'm guessing she was eliminated on purpose by the producers cuz she's gonna be chosen for All Stars. Needless to say, I was disheartened.But I kept my hopes up, cuz she'll be on All Stars, and it'd be soo cool. Two Cycles in one year, WTF??!!
Okay, so ANTM: All Stars came and like, WOAH! Girls from past Cycles, all called back to compete again? This is so effin' interesting. ANTM Fans were like crazy mongrels on a rampage, from guessing to who'd be the girls, to following the week-by-week results process. It was crazy!
Alexandria was on their, and I was sooo happy!! She's still on TV, and I still get to see her more!

I was sooo excited. I got the " I want to watch all of it, and I want it now" feeling. There were 13 other girls, and it was nice to see her again. Although there was a big personality change. How do I put it, she was, "milder" and more "subtle" this cycle. I don't know why . Well, after a little video searching, I've come across one in which she answers a few questions, and one was about her personality. She said that the change was brought about because the two cycles she was in were very different. From Cycle 16's immature, inexperienced girls, she's now in Cycle 17 in which the girls are more experienced in modelling and shares the same knowledge that she has about the fashion world. That's why there was no need to be too aggressive about stuff.
I personally did not have anything against her personality change, but when it translated to her photos, I'm like, "The hell?". She wasn't delivering as strong as she was in Cycle 16, that had made me realize, she ain't winning this. Plus, the girls she's with, are former runners-up, former top 4, has fan supports, and are just plain GOOD.
But I wasn't wary, I know that even in her not-so strong state, she's still stronger than half of the girls. So she went as far as Top 7. (My heart's aching writing from here on)
Episode 8, seven girls remained. It's the most exasperating week I've ever been, in my history of ANTM following. I thought she'll stay, I thought they'd still give her the chance, but I was wrong. Damn those people who posts wrong results, damn you wiki, still I love you.
It's the most hurtful episode for me, and I didn't watch this episode. I don't want to perhaps. But as a fan, you have to suck it up, and just be happy for your idol.
Now, I'm moving on from the trauma of her elimination, but I'm still bitter.
Alexandria for me, was more than just a model. She's an inspiration, she's my inspiration. People'll ask me, "Why do you like her so much?". There's nothing much to say, just that I see most of what I am, and what I want to be in her, that's why I love her. She's strong, she's fierce, she takes up challenges, she's witty, intimidating, with a sensitive side in her.
Go and Fight Alex. Follow your dream, your aspirations, your wants, and I'll keep on following you on twitter, to know the latest what's-what. I'll be right here, your avid fan! Way to go Alex!!! You're my TOP MODEL..
So here's her portfolio for this Cycle, enjoy you guys!







Forever Alexandria FAN <3
