Please note: I'm posting this for my friend Alicia Jay who is 6'6"

Hello everyone! It's Alicia Jay from TallSWAG - Fashion for Tall. I have been wanting to tell you about this for SO LONG and now I can spill the beans! I have been working on a project for some time now and it's finally here...

I shot a pilot for Lifetime called, The Tallest Virgin in the World (which also happens to be the same title as my book). It's a half hour show that features 6'4" Talltique owner Helen Pappas, the fabulous 6'6" Sydney Wilson and myself. It's about the real life of tall, single women and I am honored to be a part of it.

It airs THIS WEDNESDAY on Lifetime at 11/10c. I can't wait to share it with you! Please tell me what you think and look out for my #TallestVirgin recap on TallSWAG the morning after (Thursday).

Thank you so much for your support! I look forward to your thoughts about the show and God willing we will be talking about a series in the future!!!

I thought Alicia was a beautiful intelligent woman. I feel that some of the men that came up to her. Did not speak for all men and looks and comments. Those are people trap in a box.I myself wish that could've have meet her. I live within the DC area. When I saw the episode I was like what,when,where ,how. Sitting there say to my TV hey wait the guy your looking for is also looking you. As must digress I must Alicia is definitely a woman some day I would like to meet or for that find. I look for to seeing the out come of her journey.

I'm only 5'8" but having grown up around shorter women and men for most of my life, have often been 'the tall awkward girl.' So I get it. That said, as a gal with a similar 'issue', IMHO, if you've had cunnilingus performed on you, as Alicia contends, you're not a virgin.

I am a colored man who watched your program last night and was saddened to see you auction off your dignity. You appear to be black, or at least a half breed - but who can tell these days what with the way black women throw their bodies around - and it just makes me wonder what he did to you? How did he abuse you? Was it verbal, emotional, or did he use his hands and other parts? Or was, like so many other brothers, he just not around at all? Was it another family member, someone in the community, or just one among the herd of men that your mother paraded through your home. I would beg of you to get some self-respect, but like so many black women, I don't even think that you know what that is.

It is black men like u who give Real black men a stigma. This woman is not selling her dignity. She is looking for Love and the Right man to give herself to. She is a educated business woman who success has not come from being a stripper or gold digger. Her upbringing is not bad considering how many ppl didn't wait for marriage to lose their virginity. I am sadden by how u can look down on black women considering ur mom is black and the fact u r even black. Whatever reason that got u in ur hatred toward ur ppl is sad. I wondering what ur mom and dad would think about u degrading women. But remember these black women Rosa Parks, Harriet Tubman, Sojourner Truth fought to give u this freedom u have. U give the true meaning to black ppl will never support another black person. Have a nice life and if u don't like the show don't watch it.

Selling her dignity - that's exactly what this harlot is doing! She isn't looking for love, she's selling her sexuality - that's why the title includes the word 'virgin'. Believe me, the white man knows what he's doing. Since we black men failed our women in not protecting them centuries ago, he has soared over us largely on his ability to profit from our misery. This has nothing to do with her education, upbringing or marriage potential and everything to do with her pride, sense of worth and self-respect. Neither my mother, Rosa Parks, Harriet Tubman or Sojourner Truth auctioned off their bodies or principles to a white man in hopes of securing television ratings. I will never support a show or a person like this woman.

she is cute and I would be interested in knowing her but I see what black bald is coming from,the show is horrible and clearly looking for ratings. Why focus so much on sex or virginity likes its a disease. Plus really she couldn't get a real car for rental. Truly another fakality show, also no kiss not even the cheek but you highlight your virginity loss in 8months and cunnlingus enjoyment

When does the next episode air....way to go Alicia!

I love that Alicia is not ashamed of choosing to wait for the right man to give her virginity to. Alicia shows young women that it's ok NOT to rush into sex just because everyone else is doing it or so guys will like them. I used the show as a teachable moment for my 15yr old daughter. As her mom, of course I'm discouraging her from sex at such a young age, but my telling her to wait is different than her hearing it from someone who ISN'T her mom. Alicia is gorgeous, intelligent and confident in who she is. Love it! I don't like the time limit she put on herself though. I hope that it's not going to be "he'll do since my deadline is approaching". I don't think she's going to settle for Mr. Rightnow though and I hope Mr. Right comes along for her.
