I’ve been getting emails about the latest show in the ANTM franchise and I even got a hold of some pictures. The only thing I couldn’t get a hold of was some info on the show. The official site is down due to a surge in hits, and don’t even get me started on Wikipedia.
I’m over America’s Next Top Model, but I would be interested in watching this show. If anyone has any info on it, hit me up and I will update this post. In the meanwhile, check out the pics.
Go ‘head Tyra, I know I hate but you ain’t playing around when if comes to your business.
YAY… i love my black people!
i couldnt careless to those who believe these young ladies are ugly. dont expect african women to resemble what u see in the united states.. if you can only see past your front door step and not the world as a whole.. then slavery has got you.!! open your eyes and read a book.
naijas do it best i cant wasit 2 c dis!! n ofcourse der will b drama i noe all dem dont speak all da same lang n dun come 4rm da same place
gosh, Americans are like the most ignorant people on this planet. Ofcourse it can’t be called Africa’s Next Top Model cos Africa is a darn continent..and not ever country speaks english so it wud be difficult to merge….And even within the countries, there still so much diversity…Incase y’all didn’t know Nigeria just like America has States…
#92 you are an obvious retard ..and you should go get your ass educated…get tha wax outta your ear if you can’t understand when nigerians speak..
With number 26 I totally agree w/ u Im nigerian to but I really seriously doubt that Ill spend my time watching that show
Ummm….tyra didn’t lump canada and america into one just because they’re on the same continent.
Seperate country….individual show.
Africa isn’t made up of states u kno…it’s made up of countries with totally different races, cultures and languages…Not to mention the difference in looks and standard of beauty….so why not have Nigeria’s top model.
Afterall i can’t see the whole of europe agreeing to Europes top model, or instead of having an ANTM let’s just do a a North + South America’s top model…
Naija STAND UP!! good look but this would have done better to have been a reality programme as opposed to the one day compo .. but regardless, I’m all over it – for the record, most of you AfAm that are posting your disgust at the ‘beauty’ factor of these chics, *shaking head* – remind yourselves that you’re no better than Imus in your mentality. These women are GORGEOUS not only because they’re from mother Africa or their confidence but because they probably couldn’t care less if you think they measure up to your diluted/tainted bloodline .. they are doing them and that’s what they teach us in Africa that someone just wasn’t quite taught here, eh?
Thats Rite @127. African2TheFullest … these women know they look good! i’m sure they are very secure…they dont need black americans judging ther beauty.
For all of you dumb a$$ AFRICANS judging Black Americans get the hell off of a “BLACK CELEB GOSSIP SITE”.
As far as you #112, African’s sterotype and are so judgemental of BLACK Americans because like I said, they don’t think we are pure,we haven’t gone through the struggle, and other than that there is no respect there because YOU ALL automatically think your’e better (for some odd reason, that I can’t POSSIBLY seem to understand LOL). Your comments about what your parents do for a living is pointless! There’s poverty every fu(kin where, and believe it has NOTHING to do w/ race dumb ass. You stereotyping and saying “Black people” do dumb shit, goes to show how silly and ignorant you are. Don’t get mad and get in your feelings because those girls are simply NOT CUTE whatsoever! If you can’t stand Black people so much, take your dumb a$$ back to nigeria BIOTCH!!
And correction, black people will never be fully respected in this country because of EUROPEANS, and the way America is mapped out. Thats just the way it is. You are not in the same category as a BLACK AMERICAN, the culture is COMPLETELY different, YOU all make yourselves look bad NOT US fool!
~57…typical Ghanaian – dont hate fool, appreciate. At the end of the day africa is finally gettin noticed. stop with ure ignorant Ghanaian behaviour….jus coz we chased u out of our country………….. IGBO KWENU!!!!!
NIGERIA KWENU!!!!!
Americans (including the so called african americans/black americans) are racist as fucks!! I dont blame you its because you have allowed yourselves to be enslaved and ridiculed.
You play up to the stereotypes and then complain about that shit…You brought it on yourselves.
You are the ones that give ALL black people …Yes i mean all black races a bad name.
I suppose the process of “conditioning” which stems from the slavey period where we were made to believe anything remotely black is ugly i.e our nose, our lips, our hair. Its really sad…why is it when someone is ugly they are dark skinned, and dare I say have “BLACK FEATURES”.
When we are saying these girls are ugly then thats DEEP my people…Who is gonna love us if we cannot love ourselves.
This whole division thing is why we will never progress as a race…its a fucking joke.
SIGHS… (gets it off her chest)
#129 Ray01 I cosign…that was a really ignorant ass comment for that person to make….cuz last time i checked i dont think that person knew every damn black american….hell i done came across many rude and arrogant ass africans but u dont see me puttin them all in one category sayin they represent all of africa because im not goin to let my experiences make judgment on every1
It’s such a shame to see blacks beefin with each other, weather you are pure african or african-american you still black. There shud be solidarity, I mean c’mon we make ourselves look like fools infront of other races.We have been conditioned to thinking that which is our own is ugly and to be beautiful we have to look more european. These girls up there might not be the prettiest nigerians but they sure ain’t ugly, what I’m seeing here is true blackness and we all should embrace it and praise it ‘cos Black is beautiful weather american-black or african-black.
This is a UK competiton there will be no show to air. The large majority of these girls are British born so they may act like US AA women. It is a good idea but it has been hyped up into being like ANTM when it is not.
Still it is good for this competiton to be taking place. I don’t think all the girls are pretty though some are and some aren’t.
This is the shows website

Good luck to them and the contestants. If you read through the rules, the about us and the terms and conditions you will see it is different from the format of ANTM and has nought to do with Tyra Banks.
#5 I was thinking the same thing. #8 your are right.
I’m disappointed that this isn’t a television show.
If we ever do have a “Top Model” based in Africa, it will most likely be filmed in South Africa and may or may not include contestants from all over the continent.
It’s too bad because a Top Model show filmed in Britain comprised of all Nigerian contestants would be sooo drama-filled and entertaining.
THERE IS A LIMIT THAT KNOW GIRLS CAN NOT B OVER SIZE 12 THIS IS SO WRONG!!!!!!!!!!!! US NIGERIAN GIRLS HAVE SEXY CURVES AND THE CONTEST SHOULD CELEBRATE THIS AND NOT CONFORM TO AN INDUSTRY FULL OF GIRLS WITH EATING PROBLEMS BECOZ THEY THINK THEY HAVE TO B SMALL!!!!!!!!!!

check out the videos of the girls
I sooooo agree with #129 (but maybe not as harshly) I work with a whole slew of Nigerian women and they all have negative things to say about Americans and especially African Americans and OUR culture and I never could understand why they dislike it over here so much but they will marry and pay someone thousands just to get over here! Its bewildering to me! If you hate US and hate it here take your ass back to Africa! I apologize but I have been wanting to say that for the past 3 yrs…….Whew!
I never heard of this before who knows maybe it would be intresting….
i read somewhere that this Nigeria’s Next Top Model thing is an event — not a show.

Okay you can’t have a African Next top model… Africa is not a country, its a continent. Some people need to take some geography class. You might learn something… Anyways i don’t think Nigeria’s next top model will be a big hit…
Where can i watch this show, i’d love to c it?
i really appreciate the and the girl are lovely to watch even in photography, but let them no that been a model its a proffession, they should take it to the next level and achieved more than Naiomi Cambell, Oluchi and co.
