Even After Loss, Top Model's Sara Smiles
Among the characters — and they are characters — that America's Next Top Model has introduced to us this season are all of our old, familiar favorites: the bumpkin (Kathy), the dimwit (Gina), the sexpot (Kari), the girl next door (Mollie Sue) and the psycho (no comment). But the one we'd most likely invite to our backyard barbecue would have to be last week's eliminee — call her "the sweetheart" — Sara Albert. After being asked to audition while shopping at a local mall, the 6'1" Californian proved herself to be a reality-TV anomaly: She came off real. Not only that, she seemed nice without being boring, smart without being condescending, pretty without... OK, you get the idea, the 22-year-old makes a great impression. So before tonight's finale (8 pm/ET on UPN), read her thoughts on copycats, elephants and the wildest animal of all — Jade! TVGuide.com: Before we get started, I want to make sure that you're in a good mood. You know, I've been attacked by models before, and not in the fun way.Sara Albert: [Laughs] Yeah, I heard it got a little bit saucy with Furonda! I promise not to bite your head off... unless you give me good reason!
TVGuide.com: I'll try to ask only relevant questions for a change. Now then, let's talk about your Betty Grable-esque discovery. The other girls acted as if it was a crime to be spotted by a talent scout at the mall.Sara: I think it is! It's like models don't get discovered in malls or something. Or it makes them really not want to be [a model]. Watching the show on TV has been strange for me because I didn't know how central a part of my character that would be. I counted and in the last episode, [how I was discovered] was mentioned about 15 times.
TVGuide.com: Don't knock it — you could end up doing a lot of catalog work after that! Sara: [Laughs] Who knows? But being discovered in the mall was both a blessing and a curse. Yes, it got me in the door, but from that point on I had to pretty much defend the fact that I wanted to be there despite the fact that I never gave anyone any reason to think otherwise.
TVGuide.com: You tried as hard as any of the rest of them, wherever they came from.Sara: Yeah! I felt as if I was probably one of the hardest-working girls in the house, because I didn't know what I was doing! I had to work harder just to keep pace.
TVGuide.com: When you were approached at the mall, did you know it was legitimate, or did you think, "Oh, this is a scam. They want me to do Girls Gone Wild."Sara: At first I had no idea what this random woman was talking about. She came up to me and asked if I was lost. I looked at her as if to say, "You're crazy. I'm in a mall. Where are you?" But then she told me she was from Top Model. She was very nice and said, "Just come and try out. It'll only take 15 minutes." It was one of those things where you think at the time, "Oh, this is funny. I have to do this. It's obviously not going to go anywhere." Two weeks later, I was in Los Angeles for the semifinals, and a couple of weeks after that I was on a reality-TV show! It was so strange how fast and unexpected this whole experience was.
TVGuide.com: You were planning on a career in law. How did your parents react to the news that you were going to take a little time off to walk the runway?Sara: Well, to clarify that one point, which also was brought up in the last episode — how I was "almost a lawyer" — I don't know how that could be when I haven't taken the LSATs or gone to law school.
TVGuide.com: Apparently, you're just that good.Sara: I guess so. I should go out and take the bar exam right now! No, I graduated from Georgetown last year, and law school was definitely one of the things I was considering. I felt that my life could go in a million different directions. As for my parents, I know they would be supportive of everything I do. They know that they raised me right and I can make my own decisions. But when I told them [about Top Model], they were definitely a little apprehensive. For a long time, they tried to keep me out of modeling because they didn't want my identity to be about what was on the exterior. But this is the first time in my life that I have a strong enough sense of self where I can do this and come out of it unscathed.
TVGuide.com: Had you tried to get into modeling before?Sara: Never really seriously. I was approached by a couple of people in the past....
TVGuide.com: In malls?Sara: [Laughs] You bet! But it was the sort of thing where I didn't really know how to get into it, and I was a little bit wary of people trying to rip me off, so I'd never really considered it. Also, I've always had a lot of commitments to other areas in my life — like my education and the fact that I've always been an athlete, so I have a commitment to my team — so this was really the first time in my life when I could realistically go after it.
TVGuide.com: Now that you have modeling on top of those million other options in life, is it something you're going to pursue?Sara: You know, I think I am going to. I was actually really excited for the episode to air, because I really want to see how far my potential can take me. [Contestants aren't allowed to seek or accept modeling work until after their elimination episode has aired.] I didn't know that I was going to like modeling as much as I do. So I hope that finally puts those "Does she really have a passion for this?" questions to rest!
TVGuide.com: So there! Besides, you can be a lawyer at 60. There probably won't be quite as much demand for you then as a model.Sara: Exactly! I feel like this is a time-sensitive opportunity that I would be crazy not to take. And I do have a great base of education. I have a degree that I can fall back on if in six months, five years or 10 years this doesn't work out. I'm grateful for that.
TVGuide.com: Do you think too much was made of the fact that you copied Joanie's elephant pose?Sara: I was kind of surprised when I heard Joanie say, "She doesn't deserve to be here." By that point in time, I thought that Joanie and I had started to become friends, so it kinda stung. But Joanie and I are really good friends — we've gotten a lot closer since we finished the show — so I don't have any hard feelings about anything she said. She had those feelings then, and that's that. Anyway, to answer your question: The whole "copycat" thing is kind of frustrating for me because I did come into this competition with no experience and a very steep learning curve. I had to absorb as much as I could in a very short period of time, and part of that was drawing from other people and trying to make it my own. In that one instance with the elephant, I got caught up in the fact that this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity and, "Wow, that pose looks like fun!" So I did try one pose that Joanie had done before me, which was standing on the elephant's leg. But I only did it for a very short time. And at the end of the day, the picture that the judges chose was me doing my own pose. And let's be honest — how many poses can you do on an elephant?
TVGuide.com: I was surprised that Tyra came down on you for it when she's up there teaching you what expressions to make and teaching you to recognize the difference between a good pose and a bad pose. So if you see a good pose, you're not supposed to try it...? Sara: Yeah! And I was the last model to be shot that day, so if I didn't do any of the poses that the other girls had done, I would have just been left there standing on the elephant without anything to do! So the whole copycat label frustrated me because it took away from everything else that I did. It makes it sound like somehow none of the pictures I'd done throughout the competition were mine.
TVGuide.com: The judges made a big deal about your height, too. I didn't think there was such a thing as "too tall" for a model!Sara: I thought that, too, but now I know. But I don't think they told me that I was necessarily too tall — [it was] more that I didn't know how to use my height.
TVGuide.com: OK, I saved the best question for last. Are you ready?Sara: Bring it on.
TVGuide.com: What's it like being in a room with Jade? Is it hard not just to laugh in her face?Sara: [Laughs] Well, there was lots of laughing. You couldn't help it! She is an incredible person. And you know what? Whenever I've been recognized, people say, "Oh, you're Sara from Top Model!" And the next thing out of their mouths is always, "Is that how Jade really is?" or, "When is she getting kicked off?" And you know what? That in itself is an amazing quality. People love to love her, they love to hate her, but they're still tuning in to see her. That shows what a big personality she has.
TVGuide.com: A big something, anyway.Sara: [Laughs] I mean, you've got to give her credit. She has undeniable confidence and a sense of self. That girl is not making any apologies for what she is, no matter how many times I was absolutely doing triple-takes at what she said. "Did you really just say that?" But at the end of the day, you have to just say, "That's Jade," and love her for it.
TVGuide.com: I still can't figure out if her sense of self — if that's what you want to call it — is enviable or scary. Sara: It's both, to be truthful. I've never met anyone like her in my life. I do respect her.
TVGuide.com: So Top Model taught you a valuable lesson: Take a little bit of Jade into every modeling audition! Sara: Exactly! We could all learn a little bit from the challenge [in which we were criticized by an actor posing as a potential client], where Jade said, "Yes, I am amazing!" That's respectable. She's quite a character. There were very, very, very unique girls in the house, and I feel lucky that I got to meet all of them.

Amazing Race Loses Its MoJo
They tried and tried, but last week Team Mojo lost its, um, mojo in Thailand when Monica collapsed under the pressure of racing for 28 days and dropped a few too many clay pots. Now, in tonight's season finale of The Amazing Race 9, three teams run for the border and the $1 million prize. Who'll crack next? "Frat Boys" Eric and Jeremy get the Arkansans' vote. "They're the best, most consistent team — so fit and smart," Monica says. "They deserve to win."
TVGuide.com: Did you think you'd make it to the final four?Monica: We thought we had a pretty good chance to make it to the final three!
TVGuide.com: And what happened?Joseph: S----y cabdrivers happened!
TVGuide.com: True, a lot of The Race is out of your control, with cabdrivers and people who don't speak English. Where did you have the best cabbie?Monica: In Italy, after Palermo — which I know how to pronounce now, thank you — we said to our cabdriver, "Would you stay with us and let us follow you to the Castle?" He led us there and when we got there, he spoke to all the locals. Joseph: That guy was amazing. He not only drove really fast and knew right where we were going, but he was a huge help. We made up all that time on the Hippies and Eric and Jeremy. We arrived three hours behind them and were right behind them coming in [to the pit stop].
TVGuide.com: You also made up a lot of time after the Hippies yielded to you in Lake Bennet, Australia.Joseph: The didgeridoo part was key — you have to really read into those clues. It said, "Play one note." You could get that note in one minute... or in 10. Monica: Right. We knew that wasn't going to be very hard. And being in a river [for a mile would have taken] longer.
TVGuide.com: What do you consider to be the biggest mistake you made?Joseph: Probably when we didn't ask our cabdriver to stay when we did the pots [in Koh Kret, Thailand]. I wish we would have said, "Hey, man, will you stick around? We'll pay you!"Monica: When we were done with the pots, we were pretty even with Ray and Yolanda. The [camera crew] was saying, "Don't give up." But finding a cab took 20 minutes. There's no question in my mind that we would have been in the top three if we'd had a cab.
TVGuide.com: Monica, have you ever cried so much in your life?Monica: [Laughs] It's really tough. Sleep deprivation and being where you can't eat anything... it gets to you. In the fish market, my arms were bleeding and having allergic reactions, so I cried. But [on screen] it doesn't look like that's what happened. It just looks like I didn't like the fish.
TVGuide.com: Which was worse: carrying the swordfish or the clay pots?Monica: Oh, carrying the clay pots!Joseph: That was a longer walk — around half a mile — and it was more tedious in the sense that you were carrying a 10-foot board, zigzagging in and out of these sidewalks in the Thai market. You could barely nick the end of your board and pots would fall off. It was a lot harder than it looked.
TVGuide.com: Monica, now that the race is over, do you still wish the Frat Boys hadn't given B.J. shoes? The dude was barefoot!Monica: Yes, because you can't get on the plane if you don't have shoes. If he really needed shoes, he could have gone back for them, because he lost them.
TVGuide.com: Wow, no remorse!Joseph: No remorse. You're on a race. Why would you help someone out? We couldn't understand that strategy with the other teams.
TVGuide.com: But didn't other teams help you out?Joseph: Sure. But when someone comes in last place and gets noneliminated, twice... we're not going to give them any help.
TVGuide.com: Refresh our memory: When exactly did you and the Hippies become enemies?Joseph: They started the war, actually, in Oman when they told Eric and Jeremy they wanted to yield us. That came out of left field. We didn't know what we had done to them to make them want to do that.Monica: They also stooped to a new level by making up rumors about me and Eric, which we didn't appreciate.
TVGuide.com: Speaking of flirting and things going on, there are a lot of couples. Is there time for sex on the race? Joseph: [Long pause] I don't know. You're very tired at the end of each leg. I don't know about the other teams.Monica: According to Fran and Barry, it ruined their sex life.
TVGuide.com: Last question: If you had gone for the fast-forward in Thailand, do you think you would have been able to eat the crickets?Joseph: I definitely think we would have given B.J. and Tyler a run for their money.Monica: I've never eaten a cricket. But I'm not one of those people who are like, "Ew, a bug! I'm not eating that." I would make myself eat it.Joseph: This isn't Fear Factor where you can't throw up. I definitely think we could have shoved in a handful and then thrown up and ate some more.
TVGuide.com: Joseph, in your final episode, you mentioned that Monica was the woman you wanted to marry. Have you officially asked her yet?Joseph: I have not officially asked Monica yet. I'm a very surprising kind of guy.
TVGuide.com: So what's next for you two? Joseph: Monica's graduating college this weekend.Monica: I'm going to do real estate for a little bit. Joseph's a developer, so I'm going to sell his houses. Then hopefully I'll get into PR, maybe for a nonprofit. It's what I've always wanted to do. |
Unanimous Champ Spills Show's Secrets
While she didn't reap the initially available $1.5 million, Tarah Smith was happy to emerge from Unanimous' bunker nearly $400,000 richer. Not a bad payday for a struggling handbag designer trying to keep her company afloat. What exactly was it like living in a sterile underground lair with eight other people, all of whom were tasked to pick one person to give the cash prize to? TVGuide.com spoke with Tarah about this wild experience. TVGuide.com: Has the fact that you've won sunk in yet? Tarah Smith: We got done filming like two months ago, so it has had some time to sink in. But now I am reliving it again, which is awesome because now I can talk about it with my friends and family. I'm re-experiencing the excitement.
TVGuide.com: I'm not good with the math and the money-ticking-down thing.... How long were you actually in there? Tarah: I'm horrible with math, but we were in the actual bunker for 10, maybe 11 days .
TVGuide.com: Was it confusing to figure out what time of day it was? Tarah: It was crazy because they didn't show a lot of the stuff we went through. Everyone is like, "You were only in there for a couple of days. How come you can't handle things? How come it is so stressful?" But it was really unbelievable! You had to sleep with the lights on; everything — the coffee, food, like lasagna — was kept cold to mess with us.... It was all these little things that you take for granted and then you just don't have. It was aggravating and frustrating and awkward, and that is why it got under people's skin. That is why we were like, "This is so crazy."
TVGuide.com: Did you have any idea what you were getting into? Tarah: No, I didn't. They said, "You aren't going to date anybody" — I'm in a relationship, so I don't want to go on a dating show — "and you aren't going to jump out of an airplane or eat any bugs." They just told me it was going to be an amazing experience and that I was going to have an opportunity to win a lot of money [and would be selected from] a small amount of people. Because I have a handbag company, they were like, "You can plug your handbags and talk about your company. It will be great exposure." That was my incentive to do the show. I've been trying to follow this dream that I have, but at the same time I've had no income.
TVGuide.com: So are you using the prize money to help your company? Tarah: Yeah. Being a starving artist for so long and not being able to have money, I'm shell-shocked right now. I can pay off all my debts and get level and have the company work and pursue new things that I haven't been able to do.
TVGuide.com: What did your friends and family think about the show? Tarah: Everyone was like, "It's OK if you didn't win." Because everyone had these strong personalities in there, they really didn't think it was a possibility [that I had won].
TVGuide.com: That's not very nice.Tarah: I know! I was like, "Can you throw me some love here?" My grandparents say they knew I won the entire time. My friends were floored and were crying. It was just a really nice break for me.
TVGuide.com: They must have really been down when you were outcast and ineligible to win the prize for a while.Tarah: They absolutely were. But it is weird — they didn't expect me to win, so [for them] it was just like, "Oh, this is when she gets voted off." My friends have been so supportive of me, though. I literally could not survive in Los Angeles without them. Because I have my own company and have no cash, they pay for everything. My best friend has an amazing clothing shop and she gives me all my clothes. Winning for me is so amazing because I can actually give back to them what they've been giving to me for years.
TVGuide.com: Back to inside the bunker. It seems now that it was a good thing that Jonathan voted against Steve during the first almost-unanimous vote. But at the time, were you very upset? Tarah: Yeah. Steve is an amazing man and we all wanted to vote for him so quickly because he just shared so much of himself with us. [He made me feel] very fortunate for the things that I have and that I have accomplished in my life. When we decided to vote for him, I was like, "This is a guy who needs it more than I do," and it was cool for me to find that out about myself. Given the opportunity, would I be selfless? And I was. I'm obviously glad now that Jonathan did change the vote, but at the time I was frustrated because I really did want to give it to Steve. Right now, I'm glad that he threw it and the game did continue because... I would rather win.
TVGuide.com: You were playing a game.Tarah: Yeah. You forget that when you are in there.... "This person has this and this person needs this." But then I was like, "Hold on, I've known them for three days. This is a game and what makes them more deserving? I shouldn't be penalized because I want to work hard. Because Richard doesn't have a job... that is kind of his fault.
TVGuide.com: Were you mad at Kelly for walking out and thus cutting the prize money in half? Tarah: I am actually glad that happened because I believe she was the kind of person who was so belittling that we couldn't have this outcome with her there. We couldn't have gone through this game and learn because no one was able to talk while she was there. [Her leaving] was a huge move.
TVGuide.com: They brought out secrets early on in the game, without names attached. Were you nervous that people would find out your secret?Tarah: I wasn't nervous about it, because of how the conversation was going. It is such a huge story in my life and my nickname stems from that, so I'm glad that it got shown.
TVGuide.com: All we were told was that you were arrested for possessing live ammunition. What is the story? Tarah: When I first started my handbag company, I had a Mohawk and I was going through an aggressive time in my life, but it was all for the sake of fashion. I started a line with brass-knuckle handles and all this aggressive stuff on my handbags, but because I was living in St. Louis and selling them in California, I would bring them back and forth. They were all one-of-a-kind pieces and they were all unbelievable, but at the same time they were live ammunition. So when I was going through the airport a couple of times I got arrested, because it's a federal offense to have live ammunition in the airport. Everyone started calling me "Bullet," and it became my nickname.
TVGuide.com: Were you glad Unanimous specified that it was live ammunition and not a firearm?Tarah: Right. I'm glad about that, because then people would have been like, "Ah, we've got a crazy one living with us."
TVGuide.com: I actually think there were some crazy ones living in there.... Tarah: That is very true.
TVGuide.com: Will you keep in touch with anyone?Tarah: I would like to, for sure, because they did change my life. I would love to see Jamie, who was one of the rarest, most unbelievable women I have ever met. It was upsetting because they showed her as sick and angry, but honestly she was selfless and giving... one of the most pure-hearted people. She's an awesome chick.
TVGuide.com: Will you ever do anything like this again? Tarah: I kinda got bit by the bug. I'm all excited and I want to do my handbags, but now I have the opportunity to do [other] things as well. I have [been a singer] my entire life — it is my No. 1 passion — and I'd love to explore that. I'd love to be a veejay, too. I'm really checking things out now because it was an amazing experience.

Yoga Guru Keeps His Cool to Win Survivor
Aras Baskauskas may have butted heads with his Casaya tribe mates early on, but his athletic prowess and true competitive nature helped him survive 39 days in Panama by outwitting, outplaying and outlasting 15 other castaways to walk away as the sole Survivor. The 24-year-old Santa Monica-based yoga instructor was awarded the ultimate prize Sunday night as CBS' Survivor: Panama---Exile Island concluded its 16-week run. TVGuide.com sat down with the newly minted — albeit exhausted — millionaire the day after his big win to get the scoop on his "wonderful experience" in Panama, how he'll spend his winnings, and his latest business venture to keep America warm with his new brand line of winter hats.
TVGuide.com: Congratulations! How did it feel to wake up this morning a millionaire?Aras Baskauskas: [Laughs]
TVGuide.com: Going into the game, did you ever think that you'd manage to outwit, outplay and outlast your 15 teammates?Aras: It was amazing!
TVGuide.com: You were certainly one of the strongest alpha males in the game this season. What kinds of reactions have you received from your family and friends about your impressive game play?Aras: They loved watching [me]. They got a kick out of all the times I fell and all the times I did well.
TVGuide.com: Except the time you fell and got cut with broken glass, right?Aras: I haven't gotten any feedback on that yet, since it [only] just happened, but it's been cool. [My family] didn't know [I won], so it was a big surprise for them that I made it to the final two.TVGuide.com: Would you do anything differently in the game if you could?Aras: Well… I wouldn't have made the comments I made about Terry, Austin or Courtney, but other than that, no. I really thought I played a good game with a lot of honor and integrity.
TVGuide.com: Your strategic game play worked well to earn you a spot in the final two, but what were your feelings about how both your tribal friends and enemies would consider your previous actions and decide your fate?Aras: I made a lot of long-term friendships. Terry and I have a great relationship, Shane and I have a great relationship — despite what you see out there. Obviously Cirie and I do. [I talk with] Danielle and Austin all the time. I did make great relationships, actually, and that's why I think I won.
TVGuide.com: Did any of the jury questions surprise you last night?Aras: Shane's question, definitely. [Shane asked the final two to select an arbitrary number to earn his vote.]
TVGuide.com: If you were sitting on the other side of the fire pit and had to ask a question as a jury member, what would it be?Aras: I've honestly thought about that, and I don't know what I would ask.
TVGuide.com: So from the start you had a feeling you'd make it to the final two?Aras: When I got there and saw the other 15 people, I honestly thought to myself, "I can do this."
TVGuide.com: Now that you have a cool million in the bank, is there any chance you'll pay your dad back after freeloading off him for so long?Aras: I don't know, maybe I'll keep freeloading. Why stop a good thing?
TVGuide.com: Cirie told me you've already discussed the possibility of her driving you to the bank to cash your check, in her brand-new GMC Yukon.Aras: [Laughs] That would be awesome!
TVGuide.com: You already had a stamp in your passport from professional basketball play in Lithuania. How did your stay in Panama compare?Aras: I've traveled all over the world, but I've never been on a deserted island in the middle of a tropical area. It was really cool, such a wonderful experience.
TVGuide.com: You were one of the contestants who paid some dues on Exile Island. During your stay there, did you have any idea how influential the immunity idol would become?Aras: Yes, I did. I knew it was huge and could totally change the game. And it did. I remember thinking that if there were no Exile Island, I would have won the game.
TVGuide.com: How do you think the game would have been different had you found the idol instead of Terry?Aras: I probably would have still won.
TVGuide.com: How do you plan to spend your hard-earned winnings? Any plans to open a yoga studio?Aras: I'm definitely going to be doing the yoga stuff. Did you [hear about] my company? If you could give me a plug for TundraGear.com it would be awesome. You've got to write that down!

Idol's Chris Has Left the Building
So much for Elvis' plea that people don't be cruel. That look you saw on Chris Daughtry's face at the end of last week's American Idol results show vividly sums up the front-runner's take on his surprising fate. "[My jaw] was pretty much on the floor," he told TVGuide.com the day after his ouster] He later used such words as "bummed," "disappointed," "shocked" and "speechless" to describe his reaction to the "gut-wrenching moment" he anticipated "not even a little bit."
Few predicted the outcome, including his bottom-two companion as well as Idol's judging triad. "[Katharine] and I didn't get a chance to talk after, so I don't really know what was going through her mind, to be honest with you," Chris shares. "I had the inclination that she was expecting herself to go — that was the picture I got." And the one that viewers more or less witnessed for themselves on screen.Crossing paths with the judges after the show, he says, "Randy was pretty much saying, 'Don't worry about it, man. You're going to be fine.'... Paula was crying too much to really say anything.... And Simon said he didn't see this coming. He wished me the best of luck, so I think things are going to be OK."
Perhaps further consoling the chrome-domed crooner was the nearly instantaneous tendering of offers from established bands, one of which — Fuel — has since been named as wanting him on board. Not wanting (or perhaps contractually able) to detail the discussions, Chris will only allow, "There's going to be a flooding of opportunities... and I just have to field all the offers and do the right thing for me. I think everything's going to turn out great in the end."
In a conference call with reporters, Chris also had this to say about...
... his early status as a favorite to win:"I tried to block it out and just do the best I could, and I think I accomplished that. But you know what? Maybe people thought I was safe and didn't vote as much."
... why he might — and might not — get Fuel'd up:"They're really good songwriters, and great songs are what makes someone successful. But part of me is debating: Do I go and do my own thing and have success on my own, or do I get into someone else's success? I'm really unsure."
... his wife Deanna's reaction to the viewers' vote:"I was expecting her to be out of control and [that] I was going to have to be the one to console her, but it was the other way around. She was telling me how proud she is of me."
... making ends meet while he was off doing Idol:"I've had family and friends [who have] really [helped] out, and my wife works really hard. She works two jobs. People do what they have to do to make things happen."
... having a real Ace (Young, that is) for a pal:"We became like brothers on the show, and we probably always will be. He called me [after the ouster] to check in on me and see how I was doing."
... Ryan's atypically abrupt dismissal:"I thought he was building up [to say], 'Chris, you can sit down,' or 'Chris, you're going home... on a private jet to visit your hometown.' That there was going to be some sort of kidding factor there. But that wasn't the case."
... his first dash of reality:"I actually auditioned for [CBS'] Rock Star. It didn't go too well, though. I realized then that that was because I was supposed to be on this show."
... the big question: male pattern baldness or follicular fashion statement?"It's probably a little bit of both. I started with the recession thing and I was like, 'I like this and I'm going to stick with it.' I've probably been shaving my head for three or four years now, and I'm not planning on growing it out anytime soon." |
