I was so devasted when I found out that she quit C4 that I sent her an email expressing my sense of loss and she emailed me back!!!!!I had to reassure her that I wasn't a stalker,though.

Does anyone know Samira Ahmed's ethnic background? I have seen her wearing a Sari.. But is she Indian? Coz some ppl say that she is Sudanese. I can't seem to find anything on the net.

[Raiken Xion]

She always looks normal, and never seems to wear anything really sexy, but I still find her really hot when she does the news.
