Ok I want to kick the guys azz who kept telling Anchel to suck it in. She had nothing to suck in, she don't have a belly.

So, that was the least surprising episode so far.
They were pretty much TELLING you who went from the get-go.

Anchal. I felt sort of bad for her, but she just gave up.

I certainly agree with this one. It's not just a matter of being beautiful and nice. You have to be able to perform and do what is asked of you. You have to have self-confidence. You have to want it!!!

To me it's completely obvious who the two contenders are here. It's not even close.

Well I wouldn't have confidence with some bozo telling me to suck it in.

why does Tyra even pick girls that she knows they will call fat or made to feel fat in the comp? I think it is cruel

Well sadly, part of the modelling business is that so called experts will pick you apart at times. All of these people from Tyra on down are critiquing and picking apart the contenders and giving them advice. Sucking it in is just another comment.

You've got to be tough in that business and have a healthy ego or they'll crush you.

I didn't like it though.

My question is why does Tyra pick people that don't want to be models or have the self confidence to be models? If the person wasn't trying I'd send her packing immediately. First criteria would be to have to want it. Second criteria is self-confidence.

Tyra has said herself that she was picked apart as a model. She was to dark, to tall, to busty, not dark enough, not skinny enough, to hippy, to young, to old etc...

Now I know Melrose does a really good job modeling so "to be fair" I have to give her credit. Blech. I can't believe I just said that.

I really....really....REALLY..did not want her to win those clothes! Ugh! Ugh! Ugh!

The funny thing is: she's so good at modeling and so happy to be there and tries so hard at the challenges and acts so perfect and makes all the right faces.....blah..blah...blah...

I'm thinking to myself "WHY don't I like her?" In a way this situation reminds me of a few season's past when Naima (sp?) was on the show. She was winning a lot of challenges, she always looked awesome in her photos, the judges liked her...LOL and I think she won the Covergirl of the week a BUNCH of times in a row! I LOVED Naima! I was so happy that she ended up winning!

So WHY don't I like Melrose who is going down the same path as Naima? I JUST CAN'T STAND THAT CHICK!!!! She's just like this Golden Girl that you just can't wait to see "go down". I know I'm sick...but I would love to see Melrose and...well...by this time ANY other girl....in the final two. Melrose has this expectant adoring look at the judges just knowing that they are going to call her name as America's Next Top Model. When all of a sudden WHAM! they call the girl standing next to her! HaHa! I would love to see that!

Picking apart like that still isn't right cuz the girl ain't fat. But anyhoo, she has a beautiful face so I'm sure she'll get work. I'm surprised Eugenia's gotten as far as she has. I like Caridee.

It is really inexplicable to me that Jadea and Eugenia are still there. They continue to have terrible shots. Anchal probably could have stayed if she had committed more to the process - she was very unique looking. Caridee is my favorite at this point, then the twins.

I wish Melrose had have been generous and told the others that they could keep what they had taken from the shopping spree.

As for Anchal-from the get go she has seemed whiny to me, and as for editing she is always going on about her weight to everyone who will listen. I didn't notice any one picking on her weight last night and for all we know th makeup guy might have been responding to her complaint that she looked fat in the suit. How it all started, who knows she was told she was bigger than the regular runway model and she seemed to get very fixated on it. That said I think she has a great figure and is not fat by any normal standard. I was surprised last night when Gabrielle Reese referred to Jaeda as being bigger as well! Jaeda loks very fit and just fine.

Caridee was hilarious with her hiding.....made me like her more.....

I still think that ANTM should have its own heading somewhere and not be lumped under American Idol. Dancing With the Stars has its own heading even though it is a talent related show and Flavor of Love is not lumped with the Bachelor series. I demand equal rights for ANTM!!

Would you believe I just spent quite a few minutes searching and searching looking for ANTM.. I thought it would be under "other reality shows".

I agree on the own heading. It is not the same as American Idol at all.

it would have been great if melrose had given the other girls back the things they had carried across the finish line. it was crummy that the 'winner' of the actual challenge didn't get anything.

Maybe It's just me but I thought it was strange that the two Jay didnt care for during the shoot, were RAVED about by the judges.

Anchal and Heather??(twin) had the best face pics of the girls yet the Judges gushed about Melrose. Her face looked misshapen in the pic.

Caridee was dangerous. Did you see that handler guy being rammed into the glass? I figured severe bruising possibly a ruptured disc. Caridee was told to move smoothly and gently. She did NOT follow instructions and should have been removed from the comp (like you would do with a young child who refuses to listen and Be SAFE)

Caridee seems manic to me. Her eyes are absolutely wild most of the time and her antics are off the wall.

Anyone besides me believe that those Tasks were not RANDOMLY drawn from the bags?? It just seemed too coincidental that each got something that was slightly out of their normal character.

Anchal was 'set up' to leave, in my opinion. They couldnt do it due to her pictures so they had to figure out a way to make her "freeze up".

Dance Aggressively? Surely they knew she doesnt dance (not sure if it is cultural or religious)


Jaeda should have gone in my opinion. She always looks a wreck during the judging. No makeup, wearing tshirts etc.

Eugena also looks rough. Not model material IMHO

Ultimately, I dont think Melrose can win this comp. She truly IS too old for the prizes

Apparently the next season of ANTM (when hopefully this thread will be moved to a more accessible place) is using all zaftig models. Read and discuss:

None of them seemed to move smoothly or gently, it seemed they all found it difficult to move at all. Maybe Caridee was trying, she seemed quite shocked that they said she wasn't listening, seemed like a nervous laugh to me when they told her. I would imagine it would take a lot of time and practice to get used to that indoor sky diving.

Could we drop the move the thread issue. I'm sure the mods are aware that a few people want it moved and they will do so if they feel it is warranted.

We are listening to people's concerns and we are carefully considering some reorganization and this thread would be part of that reorganization.

Back to discussing the show, my favorites to win are Melrose and Caridee. Of course, I rarely get it right.

Anyone with different predictions?

I couldn't tell if the next season is having plus size models or ugly models from the hair and makeup comment.
