MsBull, I thought Whitney said early in the season that she was a size 10 or 12 (which is ironic because now size 10 is considered the "new" average). Also, I thought she said she weighed about 145-150 lbs., which given her height, would put her as a size 10 or 12.

But I agree with you, plus sized is definitely not a size 10 or 12 (unless you're on Tyra's show).

Please Ms., you can call me "Lex." BTW, when I was a size 6, I weighed between 105 and 110 lbs. and everyone thought I was too thin.

While Lex is AF&F, a size 10 or 12 is plus sized to me! <g,d,r> (And yes, I'm 5'10" and a size 4, so there! Pfft! <snicker>)

Will do Lex. But both of you have me confused. What is AF&F and <g.d.r>? As for sizes, when I was 200 lbs, I fit in size 16/18 clothes. I guess it really depends on the make of the clothing.

Whitney is an average sized woman and a plus sized model. Anya is an averaged sized model and a below average (minus?) sized woman. The scale for models is different that the scale for non-models, so plus sized model seems to fit for Whitney.

<g,d,r> = Grinning, ducking, running AF&F = Absolutely Flawless and Fabulous (which is what Lex totally is)

Bye Dominique!! It's about time you left! She was pretty funny in her interviews though...very confident, that's good, just not top model material!

With only those girls left I hope Anya wins, I feel sorry for Whitney, the reason for her elimination will be impossible to ignore, I just don't see her walking the runway on the last show. I know it's a good thing to let full size models get a chance, but this is a fashion world and I just don't see her on the runway... But then again I don't see Fatima either as the right one and Anya passes only for her beautiful face (although she'll need a nose job if she gets the money), and don't really think she has the 'walk', but she's the only one left that would be okay.

I'm watching this week's episode right now, and I really don't think Fatima is all that beautiful. She is pretty with a lot of makeup, but something about her mouth bothers me. I like Whitney, but as I said above, I dunno if she'd be picked for the finale runway show. I think Anya is gorgeous. And while her accent drives me nuts, you CAN get voice lessons and learn how to speak properly. I'm glad to see Dominique leave. While I hate the snarky comments from the panel, Miss Jay's "that's why they call it Cover Girl, to cover up the man in you" comment was hilarious. Dominque's picture was horrible. I found it interesting that none of the four could act during this shoot. But of all the pix, Anya and Whitney did rock it. I'm also with Nigel or whomever it was who said he's tired of the "I've never done..." excuses. Yeah? So what? That's why it's called ACTING!

I love Anya and Whitney. For whatever reason, as much as I could never understand a word Jasleen said, I have no problem understanding Anya. Her accent doesn't really bother me.

AF&F Lex, I agree. I think Anya's accent bothered more the beginning of the season. And heck, if they let Jaslene thru, and her VOICE and accent drove me nuts, then Anya shouldn't have a problem.

I've been curious about Anya's accent and just went and googled around. Turns out she was born in St Petersburg (Russia) and was adopted when she was four, and has lived on Oahu for years.

Anya is an American citizen now (just not born as one). Fatima, OTOH... (I really hope she goes next, I really don't like her. I just started watching the ep I missed -- where Kat leaves -- and I just don't like her attitude.)

Not only Fatima's attitude, but when she pulls up her upperlip and shows those great, gaping teeth. REALLY scary. And she is bone thin, I thought Tyra was trying to get away from the bone thin models? I love the look of the Ethiopian models, long thin neck, tiny head, large eyes, prominent cheeks and brow, but all this just doesn't come together right in Fatima.
