The Caribbean Academy of Fashion and Design at UTT

I know there are many scholarships available in T&T, what is available outside of T&T i have no clue of. And even in T&T tere could be more scholarships for young black people to become doctors etc.When Tyra Banks and Wendy and then then start to talk about that...then my interest shall be peaked.

I am dead serious! I have been watching programs like these rise in popularity over the years, and also laymen and women thinking they know the fashion industry inside out by watching these reality shows.

We know I´ve been in the industry for years. If a young lady wants to be a model, she needs to get into a good agency, and then the reality of being a model begins. All these shows up and down the globe and what becomes of these young girls especially if they don´t win? And even when some of them win, then what? Caribbean´s Next Top Model and then what? It´s not like a beauty Pageant where you win your prizes and your title and then goodbye.Modelling is a continous thing. I am not sure I like seeing the hopes of these young women raised up and then dropped like a hot potato.

And even though I made bags of money modelling, I still advise a young woman to educate herself to the highest level that she can...especially these little black Caribbean girls. In modelling there are not many guarantees and beauty fades. This fashion model game requires too much luck and chance to be successful! And in my opinion the Top model reality shows are not much more than that(and entertainment for the masses)...reality shows where one or two girls over many series may get lucky.

Excellent posting. I had a conversation with a friend of mines who was entering the Miss Jamaica Universe competition and was making a big fuss over making it and etc etc, I was like relax make it or not you are about to go into your 2nd year of law school and as much as you may want to be selected for this pageant the bigger picture is still at hand. This was a big debate for her, not saying the pageant is a bad thing, but have some kind of academic accolades as well.*smh*

LMAO @ Soca Star...no really are you pulling my leg?

saucytrini · 09-09-2011, 02:30 PM

what is de point of that individual??? somebody? anybody ?

Jaymaca · 09-09-2011, 02:36 PM

*Sighs*...if you make it feel better:

Dancehall/Reggae Star in the same format of American Idol (LMAO) HAHAH

I just find it funny because Soca and Dancehall arent particularly known for singing. The American Idol, based on the original UK format, is focused on singing.

Get off your high horse girl and lighten up.

Gyul you have any friggin clue wha yuh tawkin bout in troot? Sanchez, singing Melody, and Wayne Wonder just to name a few are dancehall artists with no formal singing training that are exceptional singers. People like Edwin Yearwood, Shurwayne Winchester, Tony Prescott, Zoelah just to name a few can more than carry a tune and have all had monster soca hits in their careers. You seem like you have a personal gripe with the caribbean. First is yuh bullshit about mas now dis, gyul ride de fock out an haul yuh cunt eh! Steups!

Urgh, what a simpleton you are. Its a shame that you cant read between the lines. I was not saying there is no Dancehall/Soca artist can sing I was saying that the dancing and music is more dominant than the vocals. If it was so focused on singing then you wouldnt have artists who are not relatively known for their amazing voice. Unlike Gospel where you have to be good at singing. Now if it was Reggae Star then fair enough because there are very good singers in both. Sanchez and Wayne Wonder obviously sing Reggae as wel

As for having some personal gripe with Caribbean...

. Dont you mean that you have issues? Assumptions are puerile.
