Contestant #35: Destiny Owusu was asked to submit a personal video and answer key questions along with her submission to allow us to see her human side. How has this competition affected you in a positive way? This competition has helped me in a positive way by inspiring other models to go after what they want with no regrets, never think twice about it just go out there and do it, surprise people and change their views about you. When was the last time you helped someone in need? I actually helped someone in need of advice about modeling like 2 weeks ago. I’m always here to help and spread the knowledge that I have about modeling. How do you handle public scrutiny? I keep it moving and don’t entertain anyone. People want to see you react so they can have something negative to say about you. I always remind myself to stay humble throughout it all. What makes a model a model? It’s not just about looks. It’s about how bad you want it, are you willing to take risks and work your butt off to show people you are “IT”. What sets you apart from every living soul that wants to be a model. Willing to sacrifice everything to prove to the world your different. You have to eat, breathe, live MODELING. If you don’t love it then it’s not for you. What makes YOU a model? My perseverance and my willingness to never give up no matter the circumstances. The many looks I can obtain and put out in front of a camera to shock the world. Getting in front of that camera and feeling like I’m at home. This is my torch and I’m here to show the world that I have what it takes! What are your Top 3 Dream jobs/campaigns you would like to book and why? My top 3 dream jobs/campaigns would be: on the cover of every major fashion magazine, Ad campaign for Tom Ford, and ad campaign for Victoria Secret because I want to get as much exposure as I can and I want to be the next TOP MODEL. To be the next top model you have to be seen any and everywhere and that’s my goal. What’s your FAVORITE quote? “Be who you are say what you feel because those who mind don’t matter, and those who matter don’t mind.” Favorite food? Chipotle! Dream place to travel? Dubai Workout Regimen? 100 squats a day, running on the treadmill for an hour, and also 20 sit-ups every night to keep my stomach tight. What’s your Facebook, Twitter and Instagram? Facebook: Facebook.com/haveitupdez Twitter: @OHWAWA_ IG: ohwawa Destiny Owusu, are there any people you would like to personally thank? My supporters which I call my long distance family; without them I wouldn’t be where I’m at today and I truly appreciate each and every one of them.
