Joanne Borgella

JoAnne Borgella is not really new in the entertainment industry. In fact, you just may have heard of her name at one point or another, especially during the onset of the reality show entitled Mo’Nique’s Fat Chance, back in 2005. Now, does her name sound more familiar? It should because JoAnne Borgella actually won that show!

Interestingly, it is actually her background in modeling that got her pitted against another American Idol contestant, Amy Davis. Amy Davis has appeared in quite a number of ads. She has appeared for Vonage, Wild Turkey Liquor, and various companies as well. But JoAnne Borgella would attract audiences that are completely different from those of Amy Davis, simply because Borgella is actually a plus-sized model. Well, that can easily be deduced from the title of the reality show she won back in 2005, right? And just because they have fared quite well in their respective modeling careers does not mean they would have the same kind of success here on Idol. Both of them should still be able to carry out fancy tunes. It all boils down to that when voting time sets in.

An interesting fact to know about JoAnne Borgella is that her family is originally from Haiti. There are so many people from Haiti who are gunning for her upcoming performances in Hollywood for the current season of the renowned reality hit show. You can check out and see for yourself how many blogs, threads, and comments have been posted all over the web. This clearly shows how she has captured the support of Haitian fans of the show!

Presently, JoAnne Borgella is residing in Hoboken, New Jersey. She has even indicated Hoboken as her hometown. But she recognizes her strong roots in Haiti, being the daughter of Dr. Joel Borgella. Dr. Borgella is actually the founder of Radio Tropicale Internationale. This radio station is the first ever Haitian radio station that has been established in America. Dr. Borgella is also one of the founders of OLAHH, or Organisation pour l’Avancement d’Haiti et des Haitiens. OLAHH is one of the new political parties recently established in Haiti. Dr. Borgella also ran for the position of President for the Republic of Haiti. All these spell out prominence, which explains why there are a lot of people who are very familiar with the Borgella family already.

What’s more, JoAnne Borgella is also very beautiful. Her charming personality certainly shone through when she auditioned to become part of the show. She definitely deserved to get her spot on the show. Many fans have been predicting that she will make it as one of the top finalists on the show. One thing is for sure, JoAnne Borgella already has a lot of fans from both Haiti and New Jersey supporting her as early as of this writing. She has definitely contributed to putting Haiti on the map.
