Ok how many thought Jessica was out - didnt stand a chance? and I was surprised Tyra didnt give an on air lashing about the go sees - 2 - 3 min late is sad - 45 min late is not good in a competition!

is it fixed just because you don't believe with Tyra's choice? I actually could care less who wins. I dont look for any of these people after they win. I think all TV is pretty staged, its BUSINESS more than reality. Its just mindless entertainment after a long day. If it were me and I could produce a show and pick my winner and make money, I'd do it too. Most people would. At least I think so.

Color me astonished that Tyra (finally) got rid of Alasia. I'd have bet money that she'd be there to the finale. I also don't see how Krista won best pic. I thought Raina was the best pic, by far. And yes, Reader. Anslee was out last week and (shockingly) Alasia is out this week!!!! Down to five girls.

Oops! I missed updating the banner last week. I'll do that when I get to my main computer.

I did not like Alasia's personality as portrayed on the show, but thought that she was a stunning girl and definitely has the potential to be a model. I love Jessica's look, but she is definitely at a disadvantage in the high fashion/runway world since it seems to be better to be somewhat ugly or at least not classically beautiful. That was impressive that Angelea got booked on 6/6 go sees, has ANYONE ever done that? That being said, I liked her better earlier in the show when she was not so much in everyone's face. I was surprised that they picked Krista's photo because I thought while her body looked great, her face seemed blurry or something, like she moved slightly during the shot. And the shot did not engage the sheep.

She didn't engage Prince, and her face looked mean. The dress looked lovely but that wasn't her doing, that was the wind.

agreed! the wind made the dress look like a cyclone. however, maybe krista was spinning around in the wind to create that photo. i think much of what is said does not make it thru editing. I'm still giggling cause she really DID look a bit like grace jones in that other comp. i was a bit of a grace jones fan and love a few of her tunes. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EzvZmQaJo68 this video even has a cameo from the great andy warhol. and lets face it, the video is relevant today. Enjoy!

I also don't think Krista is that pretty but her bone structure is amazing and when she is all made up and styled that is what makes her striking.

I thought Alexandra was going to win for best photo the way she connected with Prince and this is the second week in a row they commented on her knowing how to pose and use the light. I would have picked Raina as the 2nd best pic.

I figure that Tyra's done the plus size model thing, so Alexandra probably will not be standing at the end. Angelea sealed her fate with the 'ghetto walk' and the end when Tyra chewed her out for her demeanor at the last judging. She won't win. The judges sense fear, they'll start 'picking' at her now. I think Raina and Krista will be the final 2. Krista will probably be the winner, but I would prefer Raina myself.

tonight's show Krista - top (her and Angelea are no longer close) Bottom 2: Jessica and Raina. Jessica went home.... too catalog, commercial... not edgy.

I agree with your 12:28 post, Kooklie. Jessica is a really cute young lady but she just couldn't pull it off. I can totally see her in 17 magazine, though not Vogue.

I can't believe Krista may win this thing. I actually felt sorry for her because compared to the others, I thought she wouldn't have a chance. I think she can strike fantastic poses, but her face just isn't appealing, almost scary sometimes. Well, now days, beautiful is out, "exotic" is in.

The prize for winning ANTM is a Cover Girl contract and a spread in Seventeen magazine. Both commercial enterprises. So they cut the girl they say is too commercial. I can't imagine either Krista or Angelea in Seventeen

I also thought it was unfair for Raina to be the only one topless in her shoot.

Cover Girl is probably gnashing their teeth that they didn't get Jessica. They pretty much had to eliminate her because you KNOW she would have had a great CG shoot and then how would they have gotten rid of her? Because it is pretty obvious who the finalists are here. If Krista can pull off a shot that doesn't have CG and Seventeen shrieking and heading for the hills, then she deserves the win!

I don't see Krista doing beauty shots. I just don't. I think she looks "hard" in every close up I've seen of her. This week's photo shoot was rigged. Both Krista, Angelea, and Alex had items that basically didn't cover them in shadows. Jessica and Raina had shadows created with such small holes that you couldn't get out from the shadows unless you completely moved out of the frame and out from under the screen. Krista's shadows, with the angles, were intended to provide the best pix, I thought. Personally, I though Alex and Raina were the best two photos. I loved Raina's, but I thought Alex's was better. Jessica would have been perfect for a Cover Girl shoot. Tyra needs to get over herself. She's never gonna get a top editorial model out of any of her "cycles." The best she's gonna get is a good Cover Girl model and someone who occasionally does runway.

If she wants top editorial, she needs to make 18 the MAX age!

The latest EW magazine totally spoiled the final 2. So, I'll spoil it here. Don't look unless you want to know.

Another thing about Krista is that she looks too old. I remember a number of girls from past seasons (some of my favorites too) who were told they looked too old in photos and I think Krista looks way older then them. I don't see Krista pulling of a youthful enough photo for Seventeen magazine.

Krista reminds me of a previous winner who's smile actually looked scary, I could not believe that girl won. What the heck is Tyra thinking? If she's looking for exotic, she's got it, if exotic means scary looking. The present atmosphere in fashion today reminds me of an old Twilight Zone show. A girl is in the hospital with her head wrapped up, you don't see anyone's faces. They are assuring her she'll look fine. She's very upset, they unwrap the bandgaes from around her head and hand her a mirror, She looks in the mirror and screams, she's absolutely gorgeous, blond hair, blue eyes type of thing,( commercial beauty ?) then the camera pans around the room at the doctors and nurses, and they are grotesque, another planet perhaps. I guess we're being trained to look at "beauty" a different way.
