''It makes me feel like I'm just on fire,'' the Cycle 8 winner says, when you ask how it feels looking at her Lot29 billboard in Times Square. She's definitely at least on simmer. Since earning her crown, she's shot the cover of Latina magazine, been nominated for a Teen Choice Award in the category of Choice TV: Female Variety/Reality Star, and filmed her first official CoverGirl commercial, which is now airing in Latin America and on Spanish-language channels. Later this month, she'll return to her old Chicago neighborhood to shoot a cameo in the John Leguizamo film Humboldt Park. ''I'm playing the sexy girl,'' she says. Not a stretch.
