oh no Alisons that would drive me nuts..so thankful for TVCH.


I have decided that I don't think Samantha looks like a model.

I used to think Mr. Jay was a little cute but he needs to lay off some of that contouring make up.

My DVD did the same thing. I heard "Joslyn you'll be able to survive this" and then "Elina" and whoops. Gone! From Elina's reaction it appeared that she was going to Amsterdam.

Yay Deb, that it wasn't a clot! Scary thing!

IIRC, ANTM has been rerunning sometime during the week. At one point it was on Sunday nights, but I think last week it was on Friday night. If you want to see the ep, check to see if it's running again. You didn't miss much...

The first challenge was to be an invisible model. The models wore green head-to-toe spandex suits, and then modeled clothing. They were to show off the clothing, since THEY were invisible. Elina won the challenge, and took Analeigh and Marjorie with her to the Seventeen photo shoot.

The main challenge was the Cover Girl commercial. This time the girls got teleprompters, so they didn't have to depend on their memory (finally ANTM wised up... watching girls stumble over lines was so painful in the past!). They had to say their lines, get up, hit their marks, and look good. Analeigh won and was first called. Second called was Sheena. Elina and Joslyn were last. Joslyn was sick during the commercial shoot (heaving into a trash can) but while it didn't look like she was sick, her flailing arms as she spoke her lines looked bad. Since she'd been on a downhill slide for a while, I guess she was the one who went home.

Thanks for the updates!

I am ready for Samantha to go home, don't like that hater/mean girl attitude! I wanted to like Sheena, so I was disappointed that she sided with Samantha.

Annaleigh really did do a fantastic job with that commercial! I wonder if she has done other acting work?

Alison and Costa, that happened to me too!

I agree, Panda, I don't think Samantha is a great model, either.Maybe it's just because I don't like her, haha. I hate all her little snarky comments about people.

It seems like they're trying hard to make Elina look bad, and I don't know why. I really like her. She definitely DOES need to not be so uptight, and I don't know if her European roots are really the cause of it (I doubt it), but either way, she has to loosen up. It may be easier for her to blame it on her backround than admit to a more personal reason - her mother's controlling hold on her, which she mentioned earlier. It just seems the girls are constantly jumping down her throat - jealousy?

I like Annaleigh, but I don't think she will win. She looks too commercial, girl-next-door.

I hope we finally see the end of Sheena next episode!!!

I can't wait to see Amsterdam. I'm jealous - my family is from Holland, but I've never been there.

I'd like to see the end of Sheena.

I like Elina, and I don't see her all that "closed up" as the judges say.

I like Marjorie but sometimes her gawkiness drives me nuts.

I'm not all that wild about Sam. I think she's an instigator.

Analeigh is very commercial. That may actually be what Tyra's looking for since most of her winners aren't so much (two out of the last three have been more "ethnic" than girl-next-door).

And I think McKey is mostly wallpaper. I always forget about her. Almost no personality or something, I dunno.

Maybe they're keeping McKey under the radar because she's going to win.

I was sick home today and caught up with every epi I missed on Youtube!

I'm glad that Annaleigh finally had something to shine with.

Elina, as a lady who fessed to want to be an actor, she really needs to learn to convey her feelings. Ice Princess will not an actor or even a top model make.

It was also good to know that Sheena could talk in a fashion other than ghetto!

About the spat between Sheena & Elina, granted I don't think we were allowed to see enough to judge, we need to remember how Elina is very opinionated and vocal sine day one. The recap epi showed us how she had started with Sheena since the first episode. It's fine for her to choose to be a vegan, but not cool to call out others who aren't about putting dead bodies in their mouths or comparing the "birds" people eat to the kittens...

This is a diverse group, I like every one left in the game, even though I don't think they could all fit the role of ANTM. Being a part of this diverse group, it really is a bit annoying for Marjorie and Elina to separate themselves as coming from a different culture. Sheena and Joslyn definitely came from not-so-main-stream as well. McKey(rather work on boxing) and Annaleigh the ice-skating girl(right?) certainly came from different back ground.... Just because they have the right attitude going in to competition doesn't make them enemies or lesser beings.
I didn't see Sheena as siding with Sam but expressing herself, explaining herself to Elina.
I actually was disappointed at Elina and Majorie. I liked them the best since the show started. Sheena was always too much of a girl from the Hood for me. Sam is not ANTM material and Jos has squeaky voice. ...

(Being an immigrant myself, positive-thinking is actually seen by me as one of the more admirable part of the American culture. :-) )

Looks like the week's episode aired again last night here. And next week's TV Guide has a bit about which winners are actually 'model like'. Commentary was almost unilateral that none of the winners really have "it" to win big and none are really "high fashion." Which I already knew! (A Cover Girl contract does not a top model make, Tyra!)

I can't believe that Elina was in the bottom 2 again and they kept her! I was hoping that she was leaving tonight.

It still looks like Marjorie will be in the Final 2. Although, I didn't think she did that great of a job on the photo shoot. They love the hunched back, but it appears to me that is all she does anymore. I also think McKey will be there or Analeigh might sneak in there.

I am not sure who I like anymore, I was glad Sheena went. I didn't like her picture and I thought it didn't even look like her and they judges kept going on about the face. oh well,maybe in person it looked better.

I think Analeigh is real cute but I don't know if she'll make it . I agree, Marjorie is working that back big time, it might get tired soon but she does it well.

McKey had a weird joker smile this week, no? lol

Quite frankly, I want to see Samantha go and I want to see her go soon. I don't like her attitude. =/

Annaleigh's my favorite this season. Everytime she speaks it's attractive and natural, and I think out of all the girls she is the most approachable. Plus, with the ship/pirate-like photoshoot, she displayed that she can be pretty editorial instead of the strictly commercial they may have planned. If it all comes down to the commercial, Annaleigh may have this. (I forgot how well she was on the walk, though. Hope she's been practicing!)

McKey's great and all, but she's rather "blah". Marjorie's also cool and I wouldn't mind her winning. Elina's been slipping, and then Samantha...

Oh well. I'm glad I can at least get into this season. Last season, I wasn't even able to stomach a whole, single episode.

Okay, Whitney is probably one of the <66> people I've ever seen. =/ I mean, remember when they were doing the commercial, and she and Jay Manuel were sitting by the pool? Well, once she stood and started to talk, it sounded like SHE was reading from a teleprompter, to the girls, about the shoot!

And I realize this show is one giant product placement, but the Cover Girl parts are getting annoying. This show is slipping. =/

(But then you get people like Annaleigh that make me happy! XD)

And hey there, Panda! I only just realized there's a whole list of shows to post at. >_>;

I feel sorry for Marjorie... she will go down in history like the hunched back model, as if she's only good in that pose... it could work for some shoots but not all the time... I fear her teeth will be the factor for her elimination.

and for McKey could be the crooked mouth that will make her go...

Unless these imperfections are forgotten by the judges and the photo retouched a lot, they may make it to F2, but I doubt...

Elina must have a stronger showing to offset her personality problem... otherwise she'll be gone soon. Maybe now that they got rid of Sheena it's possible that Elina won't get into too much conflict with the others...

Annaleigh gets great photos but her looks are not that top model... well none of those left are top model material but one of these will win...

great episode last night. I'm surprised no one has posted. tyra is so spunky. i am happy to see elina go (sorry if i spelled her name wrong). I was stunned when they revealed she's 18!! she's just so poised! it explains that whole i hate my mom attitude (seemed a little immature). i wish marjorie would go now! she is too negative, nervous and self doubting. she will never be successful unless she can re-examine this in herself.

Marjorie gets on my last nerve but she looks so darn good after she's made up. I think that they could have cut her pixie hair cut a little better.
I think McKey will take this - I think her pics are fab but she is just weird looking when she talks in real life I don't like her smile.

Still not digging Samantha!

Both Marjorie and Elina could have gone and I would have been happy. They have cut Marjorie alot of slack because she does take really interesting photos. If she makes it to the final 2 and runway, the runway will do her in. The girl cannot walk at all. While I am not overly fond on McKey, I did like her professionalism when she went onthe gosees.

I think next week that Samantha will go. They keep harping on her ability to look like a model, or be less 'catalogue'. So, I think it will be between her and Marjorie and Sam will go.

Elina looks like she's about 25. Tyra had to have known her age.

Okay, I found myself giggling at McKey last night. She appears to have adopted an accent while in Amsterdam. Having said that, I can recall being in Europe and my English became more stilted and accenty like McKey's.

Elina and her tattoos had to go... she may have had a Jolie look... but even Tyra yesterday told her...you look like a bad version of Angeline Jolie... ouch!!!! But she was right, a bit of adjustment in her clothing and she was much better... but I guess not enough to pass the grade.

Marjorie does take interesting photos despite her hunched back posture (even this label is getting tiring) and her walk not so good, she may be gone next.

Samantha was really good in her natural photo, like Nigel was saying, it was almost better than the made up look..

McKey has almost everything to be the winner, only her mouth gets really twisted when she's trying to smile or talk, that could cost her and Annaleigh may win it all.

Didn't one of the designers tell Marjorie to stand up straight? You can only do your signature pose so much.
