"This Is Just The Beginning For Me": An Interview With America's Next Top Model 4's Rebeccaby Phil Kural -- 04/15/2005
View Printable version of this article Rebecca and Tiffany were eliminated on the seventh episode this season of America's Next Top Model. In this interview, Rebecca touches on subjects like how she was edited, what kind of advice she was given by the judges and what she is up to now. Guess what? She's a newlywed! RealityNewsOnline: Let me get right to the point -- what was going through your mind when Tyra flipped on Tiffany? Rebecca:The question of the day! Well, after we were eliminated, we were hugging the other girls, and me being the crying fool that I am, didn't even notice the way Tiffany was acting. We were called back up, and you and I both saw the same thing. Tyra went on her spiel about Tiffany, and myself and the other girls were shocked. Nobody had seen Tyra act that way. We had always seen her as kind and caring, so it definitely freaked me out when she flipped like that. RNO: Do you think that when she saw how much you wanted to be in the competition, and how Tiffany blew the whole thing off, you were going to get to stay? Rebecca: You know, there is always a glimmer of hope, and for a quick second, I thought that maybe since she saw how much I wanted to be there, I would get another chance. However, I had a reality check and realized it was my time to go. RNO: What was your motivation for trying out for the show and did you go to an open call or send in a video? Rebecca: Oh, you don't even understand the half of it. I did it all! I sent in tapes and did open calls. I first applied for season two, and made it to LA, but wasn't picked for the finals. When it was time for season three, I sent in a tape, and got to one call back. Finally, I went to an open call for season four and made it all the way to the finals. So this was a long time coming for me! RNO: Many complaints that I heard about you on the show dealt with you not being very memorable. Do you feel you were shown enough on the show? Rebecca: Actually, I was very happy with the way I was edited, and felt like I got a good deal of airtime. I just don't think I was edgy and sexy enough for the show. RNO: Did you ever say anything to Brittany about when she was dancing on tables? It seemed to really bother you. Rebecca: No, I never said anything to her. I mean, she tried to pull me up to dance on the table, but I told her that if I wanted to dance on the table, I'd dance on the table. However, I didn't want to get involved with all that, and chose to just keep to myself at that moment. RNO: You had mentioned at the beginning of the episode that all the girls that you roomed with were being eliminated. Were you the last in that room to go? Rebecca: Well, Tatiana and I were the only two left in that room. Noelle, Lluvy and Sarah were all in there with us. Maybe it was just the luck of the draw, but that room was fading fast. RNO:Did you get married yet or are you still engaged? Rebecca: Yes, I got married in January, on our one year anniversary of our engagement. It was a small ceremony, with some family and friends, and I got to walk down a little aisle. Everything was perfect and I'm very happy. 1 2 Next-->View Printable version of this article |
