I want people to recognize me for the work I do now as a model, and not something I did three years ago.
Fatima SiadBasically, I didnt know anything about fashion. I was very nerdy; I went to Bryn Mawr and never even noticed models when I was 21.
Fatima SiadNow that I work as a professional model, I advise people to stay away from any television shows. It's a waste of your time; it's just entertainment. It's not the fashion that we now know.
Fatima SiadI went from not knowing anything to becoming really curious and wanting to know and respecting people in the industry, realizing how hard they work. I will always be thankful for 'Top Model' for that.
