Television work

America's Next Top Model

Siad was the second (after Allison Kuehn) girl to be selected for the tenth cycle of America's Next Top Model. The judges eliminated Siad twelfth (since fellow contestant Kimberly Rydzewski quit the competition in episode two making Atalya Slater the first girl to be eliminated) in Rome during her fourth bottom two appearance which Whitney Thompson had survived for the fourth time and eventually won. Over her stay, Siad received three first call-outs and won one challenge, in which she received 50 extra frames for her photo shoot. Siad was criticized for not being able to take direction well. She was given long, chestnut brown extensions as part of her makeover. Siad missed a photo shoot, unable to get travel documents which she allegedly lost in Atlanta. That almost cost her the competition, as she landed in the bottom two along with Stacy-Ann Fequiere, but a stronger, improving portfolio saved her. Siad also survived the bottom two over Amis Jenkins and Dominique Reighard.

In one interview, Siad stated that she felt that the show was a joke and thought Claire Unabia, Lauren Utter, Katarzyna Dolinska or Anya Rozova should have won or at least not have been eliminated as early as they were. She also stated that the show may be based on politics.[24]

Siad was the last girl featured in the Top Models in Action segment that aired during Cycle 12.

Other

Siad has appeared on the Tyra Banks Show for episodes titled Tyra's Pay It Forward with Joanie Dodds,[25] Recessionista: Queen of Cheap where she modeled clothes with Anya Rozova and Katarzyna Dolinska[26] America's Next Top Model Reunion for the Cycle 10 Reunion,[27] Modelville Introduction,[28] Modelville 2,[29] Modelville 3,[30] Modelville 4,[31] and Tina Knowles modeling in a House of Dereon fashion show.[32][33]

Siad starred in Modelville and she became the last eliminated in the competition.

Siad appeared briefly in the Season 1 finale of Kell on Earth (Episode "Sunny Days") as a hired model for the DKNY Cozy promo shoot.[34][35]

Other

In addition, in an autobiographical essay she wrote for Orato.com titled Vulnerable Beauty: Finding My Voice, she spoke openly about female genital circumcision and her hopes for changing the practice to make it "less horrendous" for young girls.[36]

In October 2015, Siad was ranked by Cosmopolitan as one of the most successful contestants of the Top Model franchise.[37]
