Sandra is going to get compared to every other strong featured black model out there by Tyra. I sort of like her but I need to see different hair on her.

[Le Furonda]

Favorite. Reminds me a bit of Alek Wek.

[Sol Apollo]

I may like her, she could be Marvs v2.

Heh.

She is my favorite right now. She is also my pick for the Naomi weave.

You know she'll get it! (She'd better.)

[Jon N]

So..according to evil deduction,

Favorite. Reminds me a bit of Alek Wek.

Tyra? Is that you?

I like her, I think she might get her head shaved though ala Ebony C1.

[C0mputerGeek]

Does she remind anyone else of Kinee Diouf?

[Oholibamah]

I'm hoping they try and correct their mistake with Nnenna and make her bald. Because, unlike Nnenna's bowling ball head, horrid features and inability to give an expression beyond "smile!" and "just farted", Sandra would actually look fierce bald.

I disagree. Nnenna looked pretty good bald, but she was rough with the Bobby Brown cut. I think Sandra can rock anything, but I'd prefer if she got a Naomi weave.

[cobaltazure]

She looks like she could actually be fierce. I like her so far.

[Jon N]

Yes, she is very reminiscient of Kinee (didn't she show up at Couture this week?).

[Sol Apollo]

I personally don't want to see her with a weave, it would detract rather than add to her features.

[NewTyrastic]

She's my favorite right now, based on one pho-to so it'll probably change.

[T Scrumptious]

What? A modelesque black girl on ANTM? Can't be! She's beautiful and totally fierce.

[23 Skiddoo]

Sandra is gorgeous. Right now, I'd say she's either my favorite or close to it.

[Shampoona Ports]

She's absolutely without a doubt my favorite. I hope she's not a Nnenna though (beautiful, African looking, but a complete bitch).

[Elmer Fug]

I think she could work the bald head way better than ZZZZNnenna. But I hope they don't shave her and drape some rug over her head. She has a beautiful face and flawless skin. I could see her going very far in the competition.

[Heatherbomb]

she is absolutely my pick for winner, she's stunning despite the horrible picture, and her body is slamming. I truly hope Tyrant picks a truly deserving black girl, and Sandra is the most modelesque girl we've had since Danielle.

[Hustle Marsalis]

Does she remind anyone else of Kinee Diouf?

If I were to compare her to any dark-skinned black model it would probably be Clara Aker Benjamin.

Sandra is one of the better looking hamsters of this cycle. I'll be majorly disappointed if she doesn't bring it.

[Weeman18]

Sandra is definitely my favorite at the moment. I think she has the best pre-show photo, and is the only girl who isn't in a completely ridiculous pose. Seriously, what the hell is up with all the funky ass "I'm a model, I swear" posing in these pictures? Maybe Sandra's just my favorite by default, because everyone else's pictures irritate me... Still, girl has a killer body and a great face. I'm going to have to agree with the Naomi weave people though, I think she'd look great with some long hair.

[PorkFat]

I'm on Team Bald! I am tired of the boring Naomi weave. I don't even want to see it on Naomi anymore, especially when we get glimpses of her to' up hairline.

I like her the best right now.

[C0mputerGeek]

Supposedly, this is Sandra

[Krispy24]

Supposedly, this is Sandra

She's my favorite right now, but hair in the face is for ugly girls! (And Jaslene.)

Yes, her preshow picture is my favorite and I totally agree that ANTM tends to shove girls into overFIERCE mode, or more recently model = contortionist (so jump while bending your leg back damnit).

Her expression is perfectly aloof and the hand in the pocket is casually Gap ad. Straightforward and not needlessly complicated.

[Sol Apollo]

There are a ton of photos now of her up here

ETA: Do we know anything about her backstory? Was she born in the US?

Her skin doesn't look too good, but she still looks fabulous and she's definitely my favorite. I agree that she can rock any hairstyle (who knows about bald, but we can infer that she's getting hair from the spoilers pictures). This one's my favorite. She reminds me of a stunning cross between Kelle and Fatima.

More attractive than Marvita.

[evilandproud]

Wow. When she is on point she is absolutely amazing.

[Sol Apollo]

This one's my favorite.

I really like that one too, she has such amazing eyes. I really like this especially. I think she looks better with her hair pulled back or kept short, longer hair I think takes away from her.

But I have been noticing she can be kind of hit and miss, her nose especially doesn't capture well at certain angles and lighting. Definitely my pre-show favorite though.

[Kanine]

When she is on point she is absolutely amazing.

I agree, but from those pictures it doesn't seem like she's on point all that often.

Sandra's a beautiful girl and all, but I'm not feeling her as a model. She reminds me of Mo from CNTM.
