Jaslene Gonzales of America’s Next Top Model is on the August cover of Latina magazine.

In the article, besides saying she might die if she gets to become a Victoria’s Secret model, Jaslene also says:

“A lot of people see this as a fantasy world, but I see it as a business…to market myself as a high fashion model, not a reality TV star.”

“I’m not one to change on people, but that’s becoming a fear of my friends and family. I plan to remain true to myself and where I come from.”

“I was a dancer for 12 years, in my grandfather’s dancing group of salsa, meringue, and hip-hop, called Viva La Gente. We’d perform around town, and all my friends and family would come.”
