I am not sure whether there is an "official" way to start a new show thread here, what with the pictures and all, so I'll post this here for now. America's Next Top Model 7 contestants announced today. The site linked to below has pics of each of the contestants (click their name). The season will begin Sept. 20 on the new CW network. Link to contestants

I am upset, I have been trying to find the new CW station on my satelite and I couldn't find it, so I get this smart idea. Hey just call the Satelite company and ask them which channel is the new station... Good idea. Yeah it is so great, that it doesn't matter what channel it is on, they said it isn't in my area yet. Can you believe it? So yeah I am going to be missing my shows that I want to see on the new station, because I can't get it yet. ETA: Ok scratch the last, Geez, I went to the old WGN station and it had in the translusent on the bottom right corner CW2. I guess I had an incompitent customer service rep. I am glad I found it.

I watched it. There are alot so far who can go home fast. I hate the one who thinks she has to have no consideration for others. her Diva attitude will show on the set soon. I really never like this show until after the makeovers. So many have long and dark hair right now. Many will really change their appearance as tyra likes a variety of styles.

I liked Ginger, but she didn't make the cut. I don't have any favs yet either. Which girl was the one who stole the other girls bed and poured water on it? Did she have to "pack her belongings and leave" or is she still "On her way to becoming America's Next Top Model"?

I think Brooke looks like Reese Witherspoon with a smaller, pointier chin. Monique is HORRIBLE but it looks like they start ganging up on her next week so that will be fun. She made this big deal to Tyra about how vulnerable she is because she was blacker than her sisters, then turns around and tells everyone in the house that she is taking whatever she wants and is showing no consideration whatsoever. I like the twins, that is kind of cool plus I could totally see them in ads - they have that plain but sophisticated thing going on. They kind of remind me of the creepy girl twins in The Shining. But in a good way, LOL! I think AJ has a great look. I also kind of like Kanadee or whatever from North Dakota and Anadela (?) the Indian woman. I don't like Megan's personality but I like her look.

The best line of the night was when Miss J said (s)he likes one of the twins, but can't remember which one. I feel that way about the final 13. I kept count as the 13 were picked and ended up with 7 I liked and 6 I didn't care for, but I'm not sure which were the 7 I liked. I wanted to root for my local girl, Monique, but that's not going to happen. I didn't like Kim in her season and certainly do not care for the "poor mans Kim"® look-a-like. I was not a fan of the twins at the start, but they may be growing on me (or like Miss J, one of them is). I'm glad Melrose survived the first elimination. I thought she won the right to be diva for the day? Then she got criticized for being a diva. LOL. I think she would have been OK if she hadn't pushed "the massage messed up my makeup" excuse. I like AJ more than I thought I would, but Brooke is the type I usually find myself rooting for. This probably means that Brooke will last just a few more shows and will be kicked out for being too young and conservative. I wonder how dramatic a makeover they will give Anchal? Cut it all off? Bleach it blonde? Anything too dramatic may totally crush her.

I wanted to slap Monique and hopefully someone else does it next ep. She needs to get a grip. Anchel is beautiful but she does need some of that length chopped off. Hope they don't color her hair though or cut it real short. Midback with layers would be nice I think. So far AJ is my fav.

Isn't Monique the one who thought people considered her ugly because she was darker skinned? All I could think was it isn't her skin color that makes her ugly... I was glad Mel Rose didn't get evicted/auf'ed/voted off the island, too. I didn't get much of a diva attitude from her at all. She was late because she was getting a massage that they set up for her, so how was that her fault? She said why she was late, apologized for it profusely, and then got very upset but kept it in until the shoot was over, when she was, in my opinion, being unfairly chastised about her attitude. Those girls live like pigs...

and i think they said they had only been there 2 days, what a pigsty that kitchen was. Dolphin, I haven't check my yahoo lately, will do today, thank you. I guess Monique is the resident beeyotch for this season. The twins I wasn't too sure about at first, can't wait for the makeover show. I can't see them changing Anchal's hair colour considering how Tyra seemed to expound upon skin colour so much and how dark is beautiful. I didn't realize Nigel was Indian until Tyra mentionned it.

in my opinion, being unfairly chastised about her attitude. I agree. Jae really seems overbearing sometimes. I think of his behaviour at the Final Judging of the Canadian version. He had another judge in tears, while sitting back smirking. I think he wanted to make Melrose an example to the other girls. She apologized when she came late but didnt grovel. I sometimes think that the judges etc LIKE to see tears and grovelling. I only hope Melrose quits trying to "help" the other girls in the house and Organizing housework. She is going to really create enemies if that keeps up. You know, I am going out on a limb here, no doubt I'll get reprimanded from you guys but...here goes. I was raised in a town with a huge population of East Indian immigrants and people of mixed ancestry. I personally feel that East Indian women are "THE" most beautiful women in the world. The girl on the show is strange looking and I think THAT is what she means by feeling ugly, not beautiful. She takes BEAUTIFUL pictures though...but her bone structure is very strong across the top part of her face and then a tiny chin. I dont know, just throwing my two cents worth in. My friend in college, Ravinder, was way prettier than this model girl. being a blonde with Straight hair I've always wanted BLACK hair. LOL probably from my multicultural upraising and schooling...my friends were mostly Philipino, East Indian, japanese, chinese and Native aboriginal. I think our personal biases as to what "beauty" is, often is shaped by what we see as growing up. by the way, it is true that Darker Skinned east Indians are considered more lower class then the lighter skinned people. Weird how that is worldwide in cultures. Makes you wonder why. Maybe because India was a British Colony? HECK most of the world was British colonies at one time MY pick for this season? too early to commit, but I like AJ. I always pick my horse to win after the makeovers LOL

Sunshyne4u I want to add something that I didn't learn till I was educated by an India Indian woman. I made the mistake calling Indian's, East Indians too, refering to they are in the East, to seperate them from our Native American Indians, and I didn't know that I insulted her and a lot of others. She told me that in their culture, that when we say East Indians, it is a slap in the face. That the East Indians, refering to the Indians in the East of India are not concidered well in her country, they are concidered, dirty, low class people. She asked me to not classify all India Indians, East Indian, because one day I might meet someone not as understanding and tolerant as she. So I asked her how then would we try to describe the different two culture's, she said, India Indians. Just to let you know, this happened to me a few years ago.
