Alisha Ballard was a contestant during Cycle 14 of ANTM.
The then 18-year-old was a student from Marietta, Georgia during her appearance on the show. Alasia revealed to the judges that in order for her to join the show, Alasia told her teachers that she couldn’t come to classes because she had “family matters” with which to deal.
During episode 1 of Cycle 14, Alasia divulged that she is a devout Christian, even quoting scripture during on-camera interviews.
Alasia had shaky beginnings on the show, as she didn’t impress Mr. Jay during the “Which supermodel are you?” shoot. She was supposed to embody supermodel Naomi Campbell, but couldn’t think of any ‘classic’ Naomi poses to show the photographer.
In episode 2, it’s clear that Alasia and Ren clash in the Top Model house. Alasia’s rambunctious and strong personality rubbed Ren (whose typically quiet) the wrong way, causing a full-fledged yell out between the two.
Episode 2 also found Alasia in the bottom two with Gabrielle for the second panel judging. Judge, Andre Leon Talley, found Alasia’s modeling methods adventurous during the nude photo shoot, so Tyra chose to eliminate Gabrielle instead.
Alasia’s performance during episode 3 put Alasia back in running for Top Model when she was called first following the “dance” photo shoot with Cade Martin. Tyra said that Alasia’s ‘interpretive dance’ photo chosen for panel was just one of many exceptional photos she took that day.
Alasia managed to stay ahead of the game in episode 4, when she was, for the second week in a row, called first during panel following the vampire photo shoot with Sarah Silver. Tyra described Alasia’s photo as “stunning and unbelievable.”
Despite her remarkable performance during the photo shoot and in panel, Alasia was not as popular with the girls in the Top Model house, specifically, Anslee. After an argument over frozen vegetables (aka veggie-gate), Alasia made a comment about the upbringing of Anslee’s daughter, which caused Anslee’s temper to flare.
During episode 5, Alasia maintained her forward momentum in the competition when she received good critique from the judges for her “fake” photo taken by D-Nice. The judges liked her photo and thought her body looked great. They also said that she evoked style and thought out of the box. Additionally, Alasia won a $5,000 diamond ring from Jude Frances Jewelry (a prize she shared with Jessica) for being called first during the previous elimination. In this episode, she was called 4th during panel.
Alasia began episode 6 as the center of attention because of the rising conflict with other girls in the house; specifically Jessica, Raina and Brenda. After some choice words in the limo with Jessica, she also showed attitude with Raina, after hearing Raina talk about her in the Top Model confessional.
Later, during the first challenge with Ann Shoket at Seventeen Magazine, the girls had to choose fashions that suited their body shapes/proportions. Alasia wanted to shower before they left, which caused the whole group to be late to the challenge. Ms. Jay and Ann Shoket were outwardly frustrated with the groups tardiness.
During the next challenge, which was a one-on-one talk with Manhattan socialite Tinsley Mortimer and mingling with industry insiders, Alasia appeared less confident and fidgeted frequently while being interviewed. Tinsley included this point during her critique of Alasia’s obvious nervous idiosyncrasies.
The bad news continued for Alasia during the “New York women” photo shoot with Mike Ruiz. Mr. Jay said that she failed to deliver overall. He added that she showed no emotion behind her eyes and that he didn’t have one quality photo to show to Tyra. Alasia became upset, leaving the subway set in tears.
During panel, Ann Shoket said that there wasn’t a lot in her photo. Andre Leon Talley said that she’s improved from week to week, but this week she didn’t do well. Tyra said that she needed to include her dancing energy behind her thoughts. Nigel said that if she’s not thinking of anything, it’s going to say just that in her photos.
Due to her unimpressive photograph, Alasia became one of the bottom two girls with Brenda. While in the bottom two, Tyra said “You were the girl who embraced dancing; the judges told you to hold on to that. Then you threw it out during your shoot. That was your gift.” Tyra added, “You thought about nothing during the shooot; and they saw nothing in her photo.”
Despite her poor performance, Brenda was chosen for elimination instead of Alasia.
Episode 7 began with Alasia back in the spotlight due to her proclivity for being late to challenges/shoots. The other girls piled into the elevator to go downstairs, leaving Alasia, still getting ready, upstairs. Because the elevator took so long to return, she had to take the stairs.
During the runway challenge at Lucky Cheng’s, Alasia failed to dazzle Miss J and the other guests. Fortunately, she managed to once again produce an impressive photo following the “Hair Couture” photo shoot with Jerry Metellus.
Andre Leon Talley said her photo was ‘high fashion’ due to her foot positioning. He also said her photo was very reminiscent of something you’d see in an Alexander McQueen ad. Guest judge, Whitney Port, loved her photo as well. Despite being loved by ALT, Tyra criticized her film, saying she had the same pose in every shot. She said Alasia didn’t take enough chances. Alasia was called fifth during elimination, which included her as part of the group traveling to the international destination of New Zealand for the second half of the competition.
During episode 8 (in New Zealand), Alasia did well during the go-sees challenge and was confident, unfortunately, she was disqualified from the challenge for being 45 minutes late back to the agency.
When Alasia stepped on to the hillside set with Nigel Barker for “the same dress shoot,” Nigel said that she looked amazing, but was “lost” when he began shooting her frames. Her strategy was to be “serene” and “calm,” but Nigel said she gave him “nothing.”
During panel, Nigel said that her picture had drama because of the landscape, but it wasn’t inspirational. ALT said he wasn’t getting emotion from the photo; maybe she should have interacted with the sheep. Guest judge Sara Tetro said that she would flick right through her picture in a magazine.
Due to her poor performance, Alasia ended up in the bottom two with Jessica.
While in the bottom two, Tyra said that Alasia lacked focus and had potential, but when she got on set, she’s not mentally present.
In the end, Alasia was eliminated. Upon leaving, Tyra told her that she’s stunning, but she needs to connect her brains with her body and focus.
Upon leaving, Alasia said the following:
“It’s the end of the road for me; I’m just happy I made it this far. I’m an amateur; I did not know anything about the fashion industry and I made it this far. I’m happy with myself. At home, I always felt boring and plain, like I wasn’t important and I didn’t stand out; I was just kind of there. But being in this competition and making it this far changed my mind completely; I’m somebody.”

Alasia has not yet broken into the industry as she is still finishing high school. After she graduates from high school on May 22, 2010 and plans on moving to Atlanta to pursue a career in modeling.

Typical ghetto black gal from Atlanta. She says she’s from Marietta, but it’s the same as Atlanta. She has a fat belly, butt and thighs. And being from Georgia, she will get bigger due to all the fried food and sweet ice tea they consume. She can only be a funeral home model if that.
May 27, 2010 at 5:48 am
Why are you being so cruel? Jealous? You must admit, she is a beautiful, black young woman. True she may not fit America’s idea of beautiful (blonde, blue eyes, anorexic), but she is an inspiration for young, darker-skinned women.
February 5, 2011 at 4:20 am
Hold up now. You best not be hating on Georgia girls. The South is where it’s at. People are classy and have a manner unlike those northern rude yankees. And I’m 18 and 110 lbs. Fried food and sweet tea are in my blood, so don’t blame the food. Anyway Alasia is skinny. You’re jealous cause you’re some ugly loser who wishes you were a model.
March 27, 2011 at 6:07 am
Yes, she’s black and from Atlanta, that doesn’t mean she is a funeral home model. She is gorgeous and her skin is phenomenal. She is fabulously beautiful.
July 10, 2010 at 11:05 pm
So what? Ghetto is her personality, but she is one the prettiest girls in that group. Before you even dare comment on her body (which is beautiful) look at your own and get that green monster out of your head.
November 27, 2010 at 3:45 am
I find it amusing that people use the word “ghetto” on this web page without getting backlash, whereas on the Krista White web page the word “ghetto” caused an online lynching of one girl.
August 4, 2010 at 10:29 am
This is just straight-up racist.
August 7, 2010 at 9:53 pm
For one b*tch: Marietta is NOT Atlanta. And for two of you haters, here’s the real talk. If she was gonna be fat from eating, she would have been fat already! Alasia is my homegirl and I dont give a f*ck what a b*tch gotta say.
Hmmm, I dont remember seeing your ass on AMERICA’S NEXT TOP MODEL. LOL, females theses days. Why don’t you and the rest of y’all hatin’-ass females get a goddam life!
October 12, 2010 at 4:52 am
That’s sexist, douchebag.
November 9, 2010 at 3:06 am
Idiot, idiot, idiot. Obviously a racist functioning on one brain cell.
April 23, 2011 at 9:08 am
who the heck are you aline? quit hating and move on.
May 21, 2011 at 4:12 am
Wow. We are in 2011, long beyond the days of Roots. If you aren’t an African American individual, I must say, you sound quite racist and if you are an African American individual, you appear to have low self-esteem! Please take notice to the word appear, because I am not accusing you of being any of those things, I am jut pointing out how you APPEAR. If you are either of the above-mentioned characteristics that i have pointed out, I feel sad for you. Therefore, I will keep you in my prayers. Also, I wonder how do you describe the very confrontational white women that are straight up and down and clearly larger than Alasia… rhetorical.
September 27, 2011 at 11:01 pm
wowwww. racist much. she’s beautiful. period. get over it
October 20, 2011 at 12:08 am
You a re just jealous….she;s a beautiful girl and you know it. Her body is sick and she’s fly. Post a picture of yourself so we can tear you down…I’m sure you are busted and disgusted and that’s why you gotta hate on this young girl. Hater!
May 22, 2010 at 11:47 am
Congrats on your graduation today!! I know you will make it into the modeling industry. I look forward to seeing you!
May 27, 2010 at 3:35 am
Beautiful and interesting girl. Maybe she can come around in Europe. This kind of beauty here is considered exotic.
June 8, 2010 at 4:02 am
Alasia is a beautiful chocolate chip! Visually, she reminds me of the young ladies in my family, stunning. Alasia will blossom and she will be fabulous. She is ONLY 18 years old. She still has a lot of growing to do and I appreciate the fact that she acts and looks like an 18 year old. She will mature, gain experience and will become a force to be reckoned with. Alasia, I wish you the BEST of luck and I look forward to seeing you soon.
Aline, you sound like you are fat and unattractive, stop hating. Jealousy is so unbecoming.
May 29, 2011 at 7:30 pm
How does someone sound fat? Interesting… So if I comment that Alasia seems stupid, ignorant, and ghetto – do I also sound fat and unattractive?
June 8, 2010 at 9:25 pm
Contrats on your graduation! Hooraaaaaay! You’re such a beautiful, black young woman. It was a special treat to see you on ANTM. May the good Lord shower down ((much)) blessings on you!
July 12, 2010 at 1:42 am
She should not be a model. Alasia was the most immature contestant on ANTM. Yes, she is eighteen, but she acted with no disregard for anyone else. She was always starting fights and screaming when it was unnecessary and it made her look like a terrible person. She even dared to judge Anslee about how she raised her child! And she took some of the worst pictures of this cycle and the entire show. Her runway walk wasn’t good and her first picture was horrible. After that, she only took one okay picture. Not even a good picture. She doesn’t look like a model or even perform like one. She was a disappointment. This cycle in general was very disappointing.
March 14, 2011 at 7:27 pm
Not true. Everyone can and could see her potential. That is why ANTM gave her the chance. I recommend anyone who thought she started all the trouble watch that cycle again. I did and found she was not the trouble making one, but the one trying to make a change.
April 12, 2011 at 11:17 pm
It’s true, she was honest the whole time and didn’t pretend to be something she wasn’t. Raina Hein and her gal-pals were unaware of how inconsiderate and dishonest they were towards the “realist” ones. They should know that black girls don’t lie or pretend to be something they’re not. They, as the expression goes, keep it real. It’s kind of hard to believe when they’re shown as crazy, ego-maniac and tempermental due to clever editing. If I was hanging out with the contestants of Cycle 14, I would prefer the “realist” group because they don’t live in a fantasy world that’s sunshine bubble crap all the time. They understand hardship and struggle.
April 23, 2011 at 11:46 pm
Watch the show. She was minding her business everytime someone said something that started arguing. They pushed it in gangs. Krista started on day one. Then her roommates would be talking about her friends. she wouldn’t say anything. So then one would say something about her to get her involved. I’m watching the marathon now.
She southern and beautiful. Fatty foods are in every state. So the Atlanta food comment was super stupid. Probably written by one of her former ANTM roommates.
July 20, 2010 at 12:40 am
Alasia, I thought you were the best model and a gorgeous girl! Good Luck to you in the future and I wish you the very best!! I look forward to seeing you in the future pages of Vogue and Elle!! Knock ‘em out cause you got what it takes! Keep up the good work! Best Wishes!
July 29, 2010 at 5:39 am
Alasia, your are beautiful; beautiful skin and long hair. My sister and I were with you through the entire competition. Don’t worry about these stupid people here or anywhere else commenting negatively about you because they don’t determine your future; only you do. The little WHITE girls on this cycle were all HATERS and not very classy themselves, but were always trying to make fun of Angelea and Alasia.
Anslee and Brenda were both FUNNY LOOKING. Brenda looked liked a transvesite and Anslee just looked a HOT MESS period. I would throw up a little in my mouth at the sight of those two LMAO! Alasia, you’re a beautiful black princess and don’t let these stupid people bring you down.
August 2, 2010 at 5:56 am
Sweet Alasia, here’s to hoping you have a wonderful modeling career and so many more years of success to come.
Sadly, some people fail to become a productive successful member of society and instead work to put down others in an attempt to bring some meaning to their own sad excuse for a life.
Saying that, some of these people are saying comments in which you need not even respond with a dignified answer. We know that you and Anslee that same day talked about your disagreement and she appologized to you.
You and your cast mates were on the show and anyone with at least a Jr. High education knows that shows are edited to be the way the producers want. So ignore the immature, jealous ramblings of ignorant people.
I will say that I hope you follow your dreams and soon I will see you in magazines everywhere. Elle, Vogue, Essence, Harper’s Bazaar … because sweetie, your star will always shine as long as you let it.
October 9, 2010 at 6:56 pm
What is wrong with you people? There is no excuse for someone to act like she did. EVER. And to do it on national television? I actually feel sorry for her that she was such a fool.
April 23, 2011 at 11:55 pm
What do you think about the girls that kept starting the mess with her as the target? Those girls were simple. And the really needed each other. They never said any slick comments when they were alone.
May 14, 2011 at 9:59 pm
yes, she did get mad but you are acting lik cant no body get a temper. who was the prettiest girl on cycle 14? Alasia Ballard. who photographed phenominally? Alasia Ballard. who do you wish you were right now? Alasia Ballard.
October 12, 2010 at 1:20 pm
The first picture that she took was embarrassing. I swear down. I am not pleased with her, but she is a beautiful girl.
October 14, 2010 at 6:26 am
She’s 5’8, which doesn’t make the cut in NYC elite fashion or in the haute couture market of Europe. Her face is typical, not unique for an African American. She is also a thin girl which is good.
She has to study fashion history in order to make it as a model where ever she chooses to find work. If she is lucky, she can book mainstream middle-level commercial work in NYC. Now, if she looked like Iman or Oluchi she would be a shoe-in for Parisian modeling, but she’s not. I assume BET fashion will be her route as a model.
November 14, 2010 at 10:39 pm
I didn’t like Alasia at all.
Yes, she was 18 and immature, but the girl should have put herself together and behave as she was broadcast in various countries. She just gives me the impression of a young girl who talks too much and doesn’t wanna learn. Besides, I didn’t like her pictures either. Whoever says that her beauty is considered as exotic in Europe, doesn’t apparently know what’s going on here.
I am European myself and I would give Alasia not more than average. The African models in Europe are to die for, it just literally hurts to see them; they’re perfection. To wrap it up, I was not and I will never be a fan of such a personality and behaviour.
November 27, 2010 at 3:42 am
I agree with what you are saying. There is a HUGE difference between Africans and African Americans; not just physically, but culturally as well. In Africa, the bone structure translates as refined and avante garde. The most beautiful black models in the world come from Africa, whereas in America there is more than two centuries of the body evolving to what it is now. A change of diet, culture, a difference in the natural environment and climate can cause the body lose its original look. It is a fact that these elements can contribute to body change. In Africa, you get the best pick wherever you go.
November 20, 2010 at 1:48 am
Alasia was the only girl in that cycle that was truly great. She had stunning pictures and always stayed true to herself. Almost every single girl hated her and her attitude. That’s because she felt DISRESPECTED by everyone because she was young. I really feel for her because I saw true potential and I think she is going to make it far. And for all you people who don’t like her…SHE’S PROBABLY GOING TO BE MORE SUCCESSFUL THAN YOU EVER WILL, SO CUT IT OUT! Go Alasia!
November 27, 2010 at 3:36 am
For someone that is a devout Christian, she behaved like a demon-possessed child: always screaming, berating, throwing things at people … an unrefined girl.
February 21, 2011 at 8:33 pm
So true. She’s always screaming and everything. If you want respect, you gotta give it first. Be classy!
March 27, 2011 at 6:32 pm
I’m so glad someone else thought this; she presented as very ugly-hearted person with such hate. I really hope she saw herself on TV and made some changes.
November 26, 2010 at 2:25 pm
Ugly and the most annoying person on ANTM. Big mouth. I love a lot of black models, but she is definitely not the one.
November 27, 2010 at 3:34 am
I know what you mean! She’s just as ugly as Krista White. The only difference is if she wears lipstick it makes her look like she just did coke. It’s wrong to know fashion designers and models, though for some reason Andre Leon Talley was fond of her.
I think when the show aired he saw that he made a fool out of himself, lowering his expectations for a professional model to someone who is suitable for hip-hop fashion shows and printwork. For Cycle 15, if he had kept the same approach Ann would have been gone within the first few weeks. All Mr. Talley is about now is what Europe wants. If the prizes still included Seventeen Magazine Alasia would be a shoe-in. My favorite African models are Iman Abdulmajid and Alek Wek. One of my favorit British models is Naomi Campbell. Her facial bone structure is exquisite.
December 6, 2010 at 4:41 am
Seriously the most annoying girl in awhile besides Jade. So immature. And I have a problem with how she acted towards the other girls and then had the nerve to say she’s a devout Christian? No. So irritating.
December 6, 2010 at 9:56 pm
Wow. I should say that I’m kinda appalled by some of the criticism being given to Alasia. Well, getting staight to the point, I think Alasia is indeed a Beautiful lady. Full of potential and I should admit I did love her character. She was always true to herself and never let anyone bring her down. Alasia”behaved like a demon possessed child.” Really? I dont think, so no Christian is perfect. We all got flaws and Alasia is no exception. My advice to Alasia is that you’re a beautiful lady and you should keep up the excellent job. Dream big and am positive you gonna get there soon.
December 7, 2010 at 7:37 am
She and Angelea is my favorite model in ANTM cycle 14. I still like them even though they are being bithcie and like to cause problems. But they produce nice photos.
December 8, 2010 at 8:24 pm
First, I am not African-American, but a 1/2 Black Hispanic. I have taught in the inner city schools here in Atlanta. I can’t really talk about Alasia’s beauty; for me she is typical. Even if she was the most physically beautiful woman in the world, her behavior was absolutely horrid. I am sure when modeling agencies look at ANTM they wouldn’t hire her. People sticking up for her acting that way, probably act that way themselves.
I can’t understand it, (I am originally from New York) but it is the southern culture here. I always teach my students, there is their world and the white world and you have to know the difference. Obviously no one sent the memo to Alasia.
I hope she has learned a lesson in humility, and couth. When she would have a scene on the show I usually changed the channel; I didn’t have the stomach to watch her.
June 1, 2011 at 5:42 am
I’m surprised at you … a teacher… half whatever u are (who cares) but this 18 year old young lady, even teenager who admitted her weakness, lack of wordliness, and poor self asteem found herself by the end of the show, had grew up in front of america (the world) and was thankful (not embarrassed) spoke volumes about her character. Sorry I can’t say the same for you. A teacher, you should be ashamed of yourself for not be forgiving. The young make their mistakes, as teachers we let them know it is what you do after that makes the diff!
October 11, 2011 at 5:57 pm
Why are people talking about maturity? First of all, these are young girls put in a high pressure place – and I don’t mean the photos – I mean living with the people you are competing against. No tv. Just opportunities to get on each other’s nerves. I don’t know how they do it. They are going to war almost every season with this amount of togetherness and boredom.
And the fashion industry does not hire people due to their maturity. They want people who can sell; get the attention. If they went on maturity and behavior, Naomi Campbell would not be one of the biggest models in the industry. She’s trouble. She bullies other models – and not just Tyra Banks. But she is big.
These comments telling people who can and who cannot be a model are so ridiculous. These girls beat out thousands of girls to make it to this show. They can be models if the industry sees them as such. People who don’t work in the fashion industry are just watchers. The media shapes opinions and attitudes. Not us who watch.
And to speak about the behaviors of the poeple on the show… The behavior on this site is crazy. And you all are not in a room together. There are no cameras in front of you. But some of you are saying things to start an arguement with people you can’t even see.
Put you on a reality show and you would be the monster in the room for sure. I am speaking to those who comment on this young lady being ghetto, un-Christian like and all othe other mean comments. If you were in the room with her, you would start something with her. You may want to deny it, but it would be crazy to believe that the contestants do not look at these pages and read the comments. I am sure she has and has been hurt. And then, the comments leave the modeling profession and go into racism. I have to scroll down to get back to what people think about her modeling. That is what this site is for. Not to bash people and assign their personalities labels. Please stick to the modeling and stop the bullying.
December 12, 2010 at 2:16 am
Alasia is beautiful and what dummy called her fat? You must be anorexic because she has a nice petite frame. And as for the dumb a$$ comment above me made by Lisa … Who freaking cares about your nationality? No one asked!
Women! Stop the hating and raise up other women who are doing there thing. Too bad Lisa was not a contestant. She is young who lacks experience. But I loved her on the show. The bottom line is she should have won over that alien. Ugh! Anyway, hopes she continues to pursue modeling. As for you Lisa, go back to your low-paying job and teach special education. That’s probably where you would make the most impact. Hahahahaha!
December 19, 2010 at 5:42 am
Maybe she knows how to model, but with that attitude…? She’s going NOWHERE.
December 20, 2010 at 2:51 am
She has such a flat face and a horrible personality. She looks plain even in photoshoots, worse when she has her glasses on in pjs with her hair clipped up and bundled up. Didn’t like her at all. ATL was just too nice to her. In fact he was really nice to all the contestants, but–sorry if this sounds racist, but I did notice it–mostly to those of darker skin?? Maybe it’s really just my thinking. Sorry if it offends.
June 1, 2011 at 5:52 am
she is one of those dark beauties reminiscent of an african tribe. the flat face is a beauty trait same as the european bland and thickness like the mona lisa is considered beautiful. no one disagree and no pun intended it is just a culture beauty thing. check out her new pics she is a rather lovely young girl.
January 15, 2011 at 4:41 am
I think she did quite well to get as far as she did because some of her photos are quite good, but she does have a dead/flat look at times and I guess that’s something she needs to work on. Best photo for me is the vampire one of her; it shows a different angle as well – jaw line looks good.
Besides all that, she was always guns blazing. I think it’s a defense mechanism. Especially if she’s someone that’s not really seen or done much in life. It’s a protective coating I guess and she is only 18. I’m not defending her at all because it is about bad attitude as well, but I do think she did learn from it more towards the end.
January 16, 2011 at 10:42 pm
ФУУУУУУУУУУУУУУУУУУУУУУУУУУУУУ. Как она могла так долго продержаться на проекте.
January 17, 2011 at 9:40 am
She reminds me of Kenya cycle 4 both looks and personality somehow.
January 22, 2011 at 5:47 am
This girl went to my high school, Wheeler. She is crazy . She got in a fight with this girl and bit a chunk of her stomach out. She tried to play all innocent and sweet when she got on the show, but that’s definitely not her true personality. And Marietta is far from ghetto, so I don’t really know what she was talking about…
January 30, 2011 at 1:38 am
I just watched cycle 14 and Alasia was such a stupid b*tch. Shut the hell up when people are talking to you!!!
January 30, 2011 at 4:22 am
Alasia was far too immature. She tried to bully her way into the spotlight. Screaming at people, demanding their attention, spying on confessionals … wow. Insecure much? Her attitude is not something to encourage or celebrate. It only hurt her on the show. She was so busy wasting energy on drama that when her turn came up at the camera the results were inconsistent.
February 21, 2011 at 10:21 pm
She did not; you need to know it’s not her fault. Why do all you girls, who are messing around tick me off? She’s black, ghetto and lovely. She can jack anyone up on this page. Don’t hate because haters are my motive. All you haters just give me more strength and power. You need to relax. She didn’t try to bully her way into the spotlight. And no offense, but I bet the marjority of you girls b*tching about her are white. No offense; not trying to be rude or anything.
March 27, 2011 at 6:34 pm
What on earth does color have to do with someone being rude, arrogant, spiteful and downright pissy!? I’m from Detroit and color doesn’t mean squat in the main game!

How is it not her fault? Every person is responsible for their own behavior. This is the first season of the show where I had to turn down the volume on my TV because the yelling hurt my ears. People can blame the editing all they want. If Alasia had learned to walk away and keep it professional she wouldn’t have been so stressed out.
No offense taken. I am a black woman.
I was raised by strong, beautiful, and classy black women. They taught me that being “ghetto” is fine with family and friends, but it needs to stay at home when you go to work.

I’m not a racist and I hate all that’s connected with it. I’m an Asian. But still this girl Alasia is a very spoiled person and disguisting in her behavior. She’s jealous as many girls of 14 cycle – Angelea, Krista etc. they are ugly inside and that’s bad.

Alasia was most definitely my favorite contestant of cycle 14. Her skin is gorgeous and her hair is nice in texture and length. She has very interesting facial features, which are due to her mixed African and Native-american heritage. Yes, she’s from Georgia, but she looks like she can be a native of Nigeria, an African queen.

While she is beautiful, you’ve obviously never seen an African queen let alone a true African woman.

Does anyone know if she ever matured? I doubt anyone would book her to work with others in runway or other group type scene with her poor ability to be around other humans? It seems her heart and attitude are not as beautiful as her face and body.

Naomi Campbell has done terrible things to people and she works at 40.

А ещё будут сезоны?

The thing is…she never(not as far as I can remember) fought with any of her employers, it was just the girls in the house. And honestly, the drama started with Ren. True Alasia was loud, but did Ren ever approach her like a lady and ask her politely, to keep it down? No, Ren wanted to cause problems/blow off some steam, and told Alasia to shut up in a very snarky manner. Ren = drama starter.
Now Alasia definitely wasn’t always in the right, and definitely has some growing up to do, but that doesn’t make her any less physically striking/beautiful, because she is stunning. Great body, thin but not deathly so(healthy), dark, even complexion. She’s really a beautiful girl.
Why all the negativity? I do wonder.

@Yana,
first of all who are you to judging them ?
because their black they don’t need to be ugly inside baby, i know the truth hurts. Alasia knows at least how to stand up for herself, not everyone has to be like you

First of all Marrieta is NOT Atlanta . Second of all there is absolutely NOTHING wrong with Alaysia’s face or body . Granted she may not be the ideal ANTM , skinny , blonde , blue eyes , etc . But she’s black , beautiful , and a great model . I’m just as dark as Alaysia , just as beautiful , and I embrace every moment of it . She’s nowhere near fat ! To me , she brought the realness to that Cycle full of fake asz females who do nothing but complain and backstab . And a funeral home model ? Seriously , grow up dude . Jealous much ?????? Lmao , females these days

Modeling has gave people like me hope of becoming something in life because of the change in requirements. I am not a toothpick and I’m black. People like Whitney, Alasia, & Danielle gave me inspiration to become a model. Whitney because I’m not small, Alasia because I’m young, & Danielle because my speech isn’t brilliant. All the negative comments are directed toward the big people & the black people. You don’t have to be an anorexoid white pretty girl to be a model. So whether you like it or not, we takin’ ova!
May 29, 2011 at 9:41 pm
Gotta love how everyone here speaks about other girls being a racist yet they put huge importance on the fact that she’s black. Doesn’t matter people, not important. She’s beautiful and has a lot of spunk. Quit with the damn race and grow the hell up. Anyone going overboard and being outwardly rude and offensive is just being childish, don’t waste your breath responding, that’s the only way they can get attention lol.

I thought Alasia was gorgeous, and a good role model (as far as actual modelling, not in personality) for other dark-skinned black girls. With that said, I don’t know why, but most of the black girls that season acted VERY stereotypical (ie. Ghetto). However, not only the black girls were bitchy that season. Most of the girls were. It was a little disappointing, especially if you consider the fact that most of the REALLY cut-throat girls were MOTHERS. Yeah, I’m talking to you, Jessica, Brenda and Raina (with her two-faced passive aggressive behaviour). Anslee, even though I didn’t find her physically attractive, I thought she was a great person.

Alasia has “It!” Now go out and show the world what you have girl.
November 1, 2011 at 9:52 pm
Alasia, u truly was off the chain in cycle 14. But, I am proud of u! That Premidonna Magazine pic is absolutely gorgeous. Yes, go out and make us proud.

Starting at the top, I began reading the comments. I reached Lisa’s comment, and felt I could not go on without making a statment: There is a “white” world, then there’s “their” world??! Really!?? I am so GLAD someone finally told me this. Where have I been living, these past 28 years of my life? I thought I had been residing in the United Sates of America, where people of all races and backgrounds were treated equally. Yet, Lisa has decided that I can’t live there. Nope. Gotta pack my bags and move to the “white” world. I suppose my 2 children will not be wanted, since their skin is the wrong shade. I wonder if I’ll have to take a rocket to get there? Honestly, what archeic text book are you reading, Lisa? It should have been burned once Intgration began. “Can’t we all just get along?”

I never watched the show and I came across this website and I think that she is a very pretty girl. I don’t know about her attitude but naomi campbell isn’t a nice person but hey if you got it you got it and I think she is very pretty and would make a great model!
August 10, 2011 at 2:58 pm
Alasia is my home girl she lived near my nan in marietta Geogia n i live in Atlanta and i know that she will make it far….. love you Alasia my girl
September 30, 2011 at 12:22 am
I just want to comment on Alasia, you go young woman, how beautiful you are, black and beautiful. I loved the backward vest shot, it was adventourous, and the shot of you in the alley adjusting your shoe, top posing. you are young and will grow stronger in yourself, work on gentleness, and patiences toward yourself and others, and go ahead and get where your going.ADW from Augusta

Based on her modeling on ANTM, I wasn’t impressed. The did manage to get a few decent shots in, most notably her interpretive dancing one, and that was all well and good. Unfortunately, she did and does need more time to learn and evolve in modeling than what the show/competition could give her. When she softens her face and gives herself a character to play she looks much better. Unfortunately, she hadn’t learned that quite yet on the show.
On her behavior, it was appalling. It is hard to really have any different opinion on that based on how they edited the show. We only see so much. I do wish that even if she hadn’t started the conflicts that she would have learned that screaming and shouting were not always necessary to have someone hear you. People tend to take what you have to say more seriously if you don’t always blow up. I don’t take the excuse of being “ghetto” in reference to behavior. It may have influence in personality, but look at Angelea, she was ghetto and beautiful and confrontational but she embraced it as a part of herself and knew when to turn it on and turn it off. Age, also, has only so much to do with it as well. She was not the only 18 year old on the show, so again, it comes with personal growth and how she grew up, not an excuse.
If she applies herself and really takes the time to learn the industry and how to work her body and face she can make it in the industry, but she has to really work for it.

anger issues…………..sorry but because of how she was portrayed on the show, it makes the world view her as, attitude problems, and hard to work with others……don’t blame ppl for having an opinion about the girls on the show because of how they were shown on tv, ppl just accept it for what it is because everyone has an ugly side and don’t worry we are all being judged……………but yes she was annoying and it will be hard for her to get into the industry still have attitude to work with………
