Default Oprah Show looking for Muslim Girl

Oprah Show looking for Muslim Girl...

Here is some info:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Oprah Winfrey Show is producing an upcoming special in which children from different religions and ethnic backgrounds will be reading the "I have a dream" speech to commemorate MLK day. A friend of mine works as a producer on the show and they contacted me this week asking for help in identifying a "young, dynamic Muslim girl" around the age of 10. They would like her to wear a hijab and this show will be taped at the Washington monument on December 4. If you are interested in submitting your daughter or someone you know as a candidate, please email me by Monday 11/19.

I'm gonna apply.

I'm the cutest girl on Islamica [besides, I don't use fair and lovely to mask my awesome dark and hairy self.]

What about those sisters with fist-length mustaches and eyebrows? I'd be a dead giveway. I can't compete.

The bum-chumness with lol_lol was a ruse to get you jealous.

Looks like it worked

No, it's because now instead of the Oprah show, the ANIMAL PLANET channel is looking for a Muslim Girl who would fit in with their regularly broadcast images, you know, furballs and all
