But she doesn't slur and twang.
On the real - Danielle needs to tighten it up. It's not that they perceive it as "ghetto" - it's that she needs to speak more clearly, instead of sounding like she has a mouth full of sunflower seeds.

My gosh I love when you post Soror! It always makes me laugh.

My comments
Furonda is SILLY. I mean if you could not remember what to do, watch the other girls and get an idea of what they were doing. Half of that stuff you knew was just plain ol wrong. I never found her to be funny, she just seemed to be slow and weird to me. My friend calls her "Ferocious"
With regards to Danielle, I understand what Tyra is saying. Apparantly, Tyra is trying to prepare them to get jobs in the modeling business so if she knows that there is something that may limit a model, I understand her for pointing that out.
HOWEVER, Tyra has the ability and the power to change the modeling game. Many people have came and change the game of modeling with new looks, new style and personalities. Sometimes I wish I could see a variety of models including country talking models. I think Danielle's personality and flavor would spice it up and draw a different type of audience. Her down-home southern charm can be appealing to some people. I just think they need to use variety instead of the same type of people.
I don't think her accent/twang is ghetto at all. I can understand Danielle very well. There are some times where she may need to prounouciate better, but I think ALL the models can work on that.

Jane was supposed to be from England, not Alabama - that's probably why they dubbed her...not because her thick Southern accent was unintelligible, but because it was wrong for that part.
Just like Danielle's slurring and twanging with a mouth full of rocks is not right for Cover Girl commercials.
She's either going to learn how to speak more clearly, or get cut, basically.

Aside from on the show (and those boring "My Life as a Cover Girl" snippets), has anyone even seen a winner on a Cover Girl commercial?

Well at least all of them are late getting back.
I cringed when Danielle had to be told to take her shoes off.
