Importing 'rejects'

Rockstar actress Nargis Fakhri was actually shown the door on the reality show America's Top Model when she put her pretty foot in her mouth

The team behind Ranbir Kapoor's Rockstar may be trying hard to keep their 'find' Nargis Fakhri under wraps.




But the half-Pakistani, half-Czechoslovakian 5'7 " beauty has already had her run in with reality TV after she was dumped twice.

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. Or had the smoky-eyed girl already trained her sights on Bollywood by then?

Old news....I have to say that this forum is way ahead with the news stories than any other source

Even IF's official Bollywood news section has old news stories from earlier in the week as their headlines while we're up to date😆
