Be afraid – Atlanta bikini model on CBS’s “Big Brother”
“Big Brother” is easily the most salacious show on CBS. In fact, it always seemed like an odd fit for the network, which has prided itself on some level of class, as opposed to crass. But the show has become a summer staple, bringing in a consistently modest, but advertiser-friendly, audience. The 11th edition is set to start up July 9 at 8 p.m. and air multiple days a week.
Atlanta hasn’t been represented in recent years on the show. But alas, our luck has run out: we now have bikini model Laura Crosby set to live in the house with 12 others in hopes of taking home $500,000.
This is an actual description of her off the CBS Web site. I am not making this up:
While in the house, she plans to live in her bikini (which will surely show off a lower back tattoo that she refers to as her “Tramp Stamp”) and feels that her body will be her secret weapon. For her, the hardest part of being confined in the house will be abstaining from sex.
Loading ...Oh, and she also enjoys working out, cheerleading, kickboxing, running and gymnastics. Plus, she claims to be an expert on the show itself, which may help her once she’s there.
You can find a slightly racier (but not R-rated–more PG-13) shot of Laura here on a site called www.hotmodels4hire.com. It says she’s 5 foot 7 and 119 pounds. Her personal description:
I am 20 years old [she's now 21], and a softmore at West Central College. I consider myself a very outgoing person with leadership skills. I have been chosen many times to be the lead hostess/ambassador at tradeshows and events. I am a very experience promotional model and have worked with many large brands. I am reliable, punctual and the type of person that would go the extra mile for companies that I represent. For the past five years I have been very active in March of Dimes, and Toys for Tots fundraisers.
You can also get more pics here at www.tropicbeauty.com. Not racy. Just bikini shots.

She’s a softmore, huh. No doubt a Roads Scholar also.

Lay off you haters. She is “a very experience promotional model.” Can you say that? Maybe you could if you were still in the 3rd grade. If she had used the word “very” once more she would have set a record too. Lastly, she goes to “West Central College? Does she mean West Central “technical” College in Douglasville? If she does, that means she should be out of there after two years as they only have Associates of Applied Sciences or Technical Diplomas.

WHY DO WE NOT EVER GET HOT STRAIGHT GUYS WITH BIKINIS ON THE SAME SHOW AND SEE WHO WILL LAST ON THE SHOW THE LONGEST?????

Can she coach basketball? If so, maybe Tech should talk to her about taking Paul Hewitt’s place.

Laura misspelled sophomore in her bio so he was mocking her.

Big fan of the show. Read the bio and saw the pics. I already know she won’t win. just hope she doesnt embarrass herself like April and Natalie did. Who were the previous Atlanta stars on this show? i cant remember one and I have watched every season since 2. Not sure about nicole from season 2. She wanted her own cooking show to come from her time on BB. Is she from ATL?

No offense to Laura but you’ve got to be alot smarter than she is “showing” she is to win this game. She probably wont make it to the sequester house.

Janice– I have been with the AJC since 2001 and have written about virtually every person with an Atlanta tie who shows up on a major reality show (we’ve had Atlantans on “Top Chef,” “Project Runway,” “Survivor,” “Idol,” “America’s Next Top Model” and “The Apprentice,” to name a few). I have never written about “Big Brother” — until now — so Laura could very well be the first local person ever. Anybody know anything otherwise?

‘For her, the hardest part of being confined in the house will be abstaining from sex.’ ‘I am reliable, punctual and the type of person that would go the extra mile for companies that I represent.
Apparently, she earned her ‘Tramp Stamp’ the old fashioned way.
Should we wonder why all these young girls have no morals anymore.

She ain’t bad. I mean, I’d hit it, but I’ve definitely seen much better. That being said, I’ve never watched the show and won’t start now. I only watch television shows of the absolute highest quality.
BTW, what do you think of the new Real World cast?

Silicon is like unto sand and used for fabricating integrated circuits among other things.
You might mean silicone, moron.

“Silicon is like unto sand”. WTF does that mean? Please help.

I went to private school, too, so I can explain Johnny: He was upset someone was talking about the “model’s” silicon. She clearly, clearly has some HUGE fake body parts – and somebody was commenting on them, calling them made of silicon. Johnny was saying they’re made of silicone, not silicon, and was explaining what silicon is. But still, August is right: fake-o-rama!
Mr. Skynyrd

Holy crap, you private school guys really are smarter than most people!
I know the difference between silicon and silicone, but I still need one of you smart people to explain the phrase “Silicon is like unto sand” from Johnny’s post.
Thanks for your help.
Busta

It refers to the fact that silicon is derived from sand. If you look up the word “unto”,you will find that it means “used to indicate reference” look up the definition of all 5 words in that phrase and once you understand the meaning of the words, you too shall understand the meaning of the entire sentence.
Or, in a way you might understand:
Y’all idyits didn’t lern this, bit dem new fangled computer chips are made frum sand and not pohtatoes.

There was one guy from atlanta area, but his bio on show was that he was from the place where he went to school,I Think he was a Gator and they would state he was from FL.

You idiots, James and Sarah lived in Atlanta and they were on the show just a couple years ago. James even made the all-star show and they had a segment with all his Atlanta loser fans.

Could they not find a better looking girl to represent the state? She’s ok, but her face is about as attractive as Melissa Rivers.
pretty and smart

no offense to the pretty softmore model, but there is something to be said about pretty packaging versus a pretty package. this girl strikes me as vacuous. i hope she finishes college and takes a serious look at what the rest of her life can be. reality tv is littered with people the rest of us have no idea ever existed. and looks don’t last forever. hopefully she can put those leadership skills and ability to go the extra mile (no one wants to hear about either of these on resume, btw) to good use.
congrats to getting on the show to hopefully win money and notoriety, to flaunt your tramp stamp, and strut in a bikini. i will continue to be what one of our proven hometown talents refers to as a “lady in the street but a freak in the bed.”

Between this “softmore” and the unemployed tool from The Bachelorette that tried to impress Jillian by telling her a dirty joke, Atlanta is being represented well on TV. Oh, there were those Housewives…

Good lord I can see her hoo ha in the picture the ajc linked to. What exactly are bikini model leadership skills? I have a feeling that this woman is going to make the real housewifes of Atlanta seem like role models by comparison.

Her parents must be so proud of her. “Softmore”. LOL. “OMG like I’m so way smarter than you”. Can’t you hear this bimbo saying something like that. And people actually watch that crap. Get a life. She probably voted for our current President as well.
