be when the world wants you to be like one thing or the other. i am somalia make all the fashion industry buy told. me his job will be mortal signed by a major mourning agency to date which achievements for a girl who was once when. she's not posing for shoes truck one week. this cannot be my life. they are going to be open to. what have. become i'll never work. and i start. to go

if i think that on the page that i was on. some guy drove me into a bar big i was so. far below the soviet i laughed i was just. a little

lame unmannerly or so but just ahead the. german have a long that's a. social asking me what i talk about. when i'm at school i'm going to spoke to denise we have lots of opportunities that come out of the fact that she's such a good speaker now and people want that story as you build a name for yourself and it opens up a kind of an opportunity to build a business out of it marla milo was a mother. long to go. where money where money for just like with our progress you know on the go but don't other little. son i. knew you. could have the cannot follow you know how. beside the modeling she said you know i

think i can just work or do something else modeling like is there a way to just be like ok. i think all of those things that we are spreading out into can all to come something that's full time because modeling isn't going to always be very good. or jews but i was going to show it it's the we're not all it's like everything i know perfect i can my i have the last i looked you don't like the they don't like the word they don't get the word when i was afraid you know mccain well how could i merely put somebody. in the what little i have no say those kind of moco have the if you don't know you don't know what i wanted to because small feet in the demo have set in the mind they're used to people saying ok if i'm taking off the head job and i'm going to be a model the other i don't go away do. i have to quit on my head. you have got to shell out i'm all not on ice but in order to damage. universal

militia play it close up we've got to do so how you mucky and duck and the soul but . i'm happy why hell i can happen here at the same time because as that about having tough i define as end of the day i do that was the bill i quote has been cut off like an ally has and family giggles really wasn't hasty you know had we have had good health to gaia how we walk about. does it really. house that argument is what we were fake god because he vowed not to get out you know. why going joe was. going to bring him home but look yes i mean i already knew where she stood with the whole i mean that we have been going to a longing you know it's i mean i. think you know i think in all like all groups somebody

has to go out and be the 1st you know that's not a bad thing is just it's not easy. ladies and gentlemen welcome to the 27th she misled us so you were saying to you it's a fact of life for me i'm sitting here but i'm still so let's begin by many contestants trying to decide all of this riddle so us get this. though my roommate was pretty tall and you don't know all i was like 12 time look i never sit down with them and that's holy shit so i can't see any of the right mr nice wallet. and there isn't anyone yet but. i know now that i could look ok so.

i've put myself in this position so other people can see our human side but with that also comes a lot of responsibility. i know that one long stop it can potentially change how a lot of parents see girls. mark lamont it will then open. it's was on the march i was. coming up that was how they really thought it was a good joke the medical i mean my mouth when i got the look i want to swear to god i was so mad it was just that you had to sit in front was just i was the one right there. that i'm. going to.

let me eat. 6 during the hour. so those girls i love you and support you so much but i just wanted to warn you you shouldn't wear tight clothes because this shows your body and that is not part of the head this is just advice from someone who wants the best for you. oh. so much for caring enough to be me but modesty a personal preference. and i really. like that dress. going down for. the come to the she wanted museum of. the goods how about.

this picture is a song with friends is a glass of vintage someone new woman. oh my gosh more somali been. that's how the bush looked like. if he were. all my guys i remember this yes this is so my limited edition of. our 1st home was actually half of best and if the repeat. this is actually like luxury good this is a must sort of bird from the family but. a lot of like the younger generation because we were born in the post from mali war our families had flood by the time we were born so none of us really have much regulation of from only our memories there because we've never been. i want to go back on my trip was . acting for 3 guys i'm more of all.

this is a baby and this one like people want to have that's like by saudi. arabia . the. election. when you walk that's been so even if you were strides take a little longer. i don't know right here one of the priorities that i have during the week is that she is able to walk at least in one show. you're in charge of enjoy that moment last season there was a lot of interest unfortunately they couldn't figure out a way to meet that clothing and. that it actually felt that maybe only a change i mean was good but you just buy and you will hopefully get options

a sense this is winter fall clothes and you know a little bit easier probably to work with because. i think. my gosh i was you know your i love that environment i love that everything's back. to the past in the future you're. not going to be like that. i might have been the 1st to be high fashion model i don't know it's just

a trend and that's it. there's a 1000000 other girls so you kind of had to take the initiative and be led by here . i mean the women under now i've been here. he's been there. i know not only do. i think we have time reflectively. thank. you. and so are you walking like it shows very like to be. like yeah. i didn't want to mess that was like. a dream in l.a. or dinner i would. have. got way back there like if our credit cards. are expected. to oh ok. the funny.

so. they narrow that down to miles ok for. some very shrewd because the more. we still don't have a show booked and confirmed but we're still here. one rejection is worse than other. it's just sometimes when it's stuff that i can't control my height i can grow 6 inches i know that you know. there is no one to look at you know somebody i can reference.

think. i would love to see most of my doing more catwalk grand forces. in the industry like ok i should model that's why you wake up and do everything from get to that point to be there.

no you might think. that at. any time i think. i'll. plan to have an. outback ok i'll leave that. was a. night out. here

. so i. went up and i'm. not. angry she was actually i'm backstage here in l.a. i mean this is one of those shows during york fashion week that is quite literally out of this world. when you watch high school they have a skull with 321 x. .

that was by far like the longest runway i've ever done in my life. and one side of my brand like ok powerful want to lose but then also it's very important to know exactly where to want to lead one wrong turning the last one is about robot. but it's also about ok i have this incredible opportunity to represent my movie to like show people this is a new face i feel like i would be doing a huge disservice to myself and to all the little girls are looking up to me if i

didn't make this the most that i can. good morning ali. well 7 everyone my name is denise wallace heitkamp and i'm your state director i promise not to teach you any choreography as. 'd i got it going on but i won't be. oh the honesty i appreciate. and. feel that little bit of fear. here paralyzed but you know. on the other hand. to be here leaves one to. stronger and better version of your authentic self and you would never want.

to be. going. i don't. know. what's going to. be free and you're going to find one of those 8 so my girls to see are. a lot of people never thought to do a pageant and with the job but obviously like you know now they see it nothing's stopping them and it's great. c because. i just know you're. * are you excited. marcy it's. hard i know i know i thought you know if everyone was coming

i mean you know thanks that's what it's like i couldn't seem to think exactly one year ago that the pageant. was i know. that right last year it was really difficult for. my mom to understand it and it was a big no from my community. and then they saw that i didn't change last minute and that's the idea that they're off my feet you have. so now i see parents like supporting their daughters to go into pageants. but my mom she doesn't agree with. the way i'm never going to say i don't understand where she's coming from because i get it. i've always told my mom like you want me to stop i'll stop. but she's allowed to make this choice for myself.

i just can't believe like how much my mom has changed how accepting she's become. she's actually like very supportive she's so happy for the other girls. i know it's not easy for her but the fact that she's sitting here with me like it just goes to show like how much she really cares we would like to have especially on li prison this next word she stood on this very stage is a contestant last here she is an example of how the passion for bikes. usually spread powerful. thank. her for her. son.
