Pakistani girl Nargis Fakhri, starring in Ranbir Kapoor's film Rockstar, was once actually shown the door on the reality show America's Top Model when she put her pretty foot in her mouth, says a media report.
The half-Pakistani, half-Czechoslovakian 5'7 ½” beauty has already had her run in with reality TV — after she was dumped twice, the report said.
The 27-year-old swimwear model had participated in America's Next Top Model in Cycles 2 and 3, hosted by supermodel Tyra Banks.
The show, which pits several aspiring models against each other in a hunt for the hottest thing on the ramp, had invited Nargis for her fab body and exotic looks.
A resident of Queens, New York, Nargis was the first Pakistani girl to be on the hugely popular show, but her catwalk was cut short by her Quixotic honesty.
Fakhri, who looked and sounded confident before the camera, reportedly put off the judges with the air of familiarity with which she greeted them.
Worse, Nargis told a stunned Tyra, that she was not really “interested in fashion or modelling” —duh? While eliminating her, Tyra said she did not really have the drive for modelling. Maybe Tyra had not seen Nargis's scorching bikini shots for Atul Kasbekar.
