Yaya Da Costa quotes from America's Next Top Model

Julie cracks me up. It's nice to see someone proud of where they come from.

[in confessional about Ann writing in Cassie's brownies] Someone had the audacity to mutilate her precious brownies.

Maybe there's a wall, you know, with nine blocks that spell out "competition."

There's one person eliminated every single time. And that one person should not be me. And if it is, I need to have a talk with the judges.

Don't exoticize me!

I did the girls a favor because my nonpresence there gave someone else a chance to win.

The skirt was kinda see-through. I didn't want to be disrespectful, but if that idea had been done in the States, it could look very...hoochie.

If there were anything that Amanda and I could do to make Eva feel more included or comfortable, I don't think we would.

Dance! Dance!

[in confessional about Tiffany] So we decided that there was going to be a dance competition so Tiffany starts dancing. Homegirl starts dancing. [Tiffany has beer poured over whilst dancing]

[in confessional] Bitch poured beer on my weave so I'm thinking of... You know, everybody... I had the evil twin and the good one. So, as we all know the evil one won!

[in confessional about Tiffany] As soon as I turn around... [imitates glasses being thrown] I hear glasses breaking. Oh no, she did not. Unbelievable!

[in confessional] All you start hearing is like bottles crashing! You see beer flying around!

Toccara

[in confessional] It was glass and everything been thrown everywhere! I've never been in a bar fight like that and that was the best!

[to Kimberley and Magdalena] That stank hoe poured beer on my weave! This is not even my hair!

[to Tiffany] I know you're mad.

[to Magdalena] I'm cool!

Toccara

[in confessional about Ann who is sitting right next to Eva looking at Yaya who is sitting right next to Cassie] So, we get to the dinner and everything's fine and then, Ann looks over at Yaya and she says...

[to Yaya who is sitting right next to Cassie] Yaya, what does your shirt mean?

[to Ann who is sitting right next to Eva] It's "respeito." In Portuguese, it means "respect." There's a big lack of it in the house, so I felt the need to wear it today. Cassie's brownies were fingered. I just think it's immature and disrespectful, and that's exact...

[to Yaya and Cassie] Why is that immature?

[to Ann] Why is it immature?

[to Ann who is sitting right next to Eva] Who writes in food? Like, who writes in someone's brownies?

[to Cassie] Well, I was gonna say something to you anyways. I did that today to be funny. It wasn't to be mean or anything. I didn't do it to hurt you or because I don't like you.

[to Ann who is sitting right next to Eva] But you shouldn't have touched it.

[to Cassie] Okay, that's fine, it was a joke! I'm sorry! I swear I was trying to be funny. I thought you would think it was funny.

[to Ann who is sitting right next to Eva] It's not funny.

[to Ann who is sitting right next to Eva] Do you have a relationship with Cassie where she would honestly think it was funny? Maybe if you did it to Eva, you'd be like, "Ha ha ha!" But that's not funny.

[to Cassie] Okay, well...I guess I look at it as if one of you guys did it to me, I'd laugh!

[in confessional] Some people think it's funny to kill people. That doesn't make it funny.

[to Cassie] Okay, well, I'm sorry that you're so mature and that you have no sense of humour.

[to Ann] I mean, we don't have to be hostile to each other, but don't touch my stuff, 'cause it's not funny to me.

[to Cassie] Okay, when you were making yourself throw up, and you didn't want anyone to talk about it, you said that, and we stopped talking about it.

[to Ann] That's fine!

[to Cassie] So stop talking about me because I don't appreciate that.

[to Ann] I'm gonna talk about it. I'll tell you that right now.

[to Cassie] Well, I'm gonna talk about how you're bullimic.

[to Ann] That's fine. Go ahead.

[to Cassie] Great! I'll tell Tyra tomorrow.

[to Ann] You know, she came up and we actually talked about it today.

[to everyone at the table] Let’s try this! How about everyone just needs to wash their own dishes!

[to Cassie] Clean your dishes! Don't be a pig, that's disgusting! Who wants to live with your dishes in the sink for a week?!

[to Ann] Who wants to live with you, Ann?! Don't touch my shit! I don't need you to tell me to wash my shit! And I don't need you to put a knife in my brownies, and write, "Clean your shit"! Don't ever touch my stuff!

Tyra

[to Yaya] Why did you choose the cowboy hat?

[to Tyra] It's more on the simple side compared to the other hats, so I can go crazy with accessories and express myself without being cliché.

Nigel

[to Yaya] Yaya, I think you look beautiful. I think everyone probably pegged you as going for the typical African hat.

[to Yaya] You're I feel... half African, half cowgirl. Looks like you're about to ride a giraffe. I think... I'm not feeling it.

[to Yaya] You have this intensity to prove your, sort of, African-ness. And I think that sometimes it's overbearing. It's just too much, it's sort of a layer on top of a layer.

[to the judges] In response to trying to prove myself as an African, that's just where I come from. It's very natural to me... and [points at the African hat on the judges' panel] I did not chose that hat for the very specific reason that it's very cliché. The fabric that it's made from is very artificial, very cheap fake kente!

Nigel

[to Yaya] Yaya.

[to Nigel] I didn't have the time–I know I'm running on.

Tyra

[to Yaya] There's a different way of explaining yourself and being defensive. And you're being very defensive, and it's not attractive.

[to Tyra] Just because we had a talk about, you know, Afro-centricity before, and it's kind of... misunderstood.

Tyra

[to Yaya] I'm all about, like, expressing yourself and your culture, but it's still done in a fashion way. You want your outfit to be, "Look at me!" and this outfit is, "Look over there!"

And I have all that tension and animosity...

Sorry, Jessie, one second. I CAN'T HEAR, I'M ON THE PHONE!

[after long pause] ...Go on.
