That's Shannon.

I think Alicia simply won't be kept around because of her body. She's not curvy enough, too skinny, too out of shape. But I think she'd make an excellent regular model. She is so striking. I think she will change her attitude a bit. But I am confounded that Roshumba "applauds" her behaviour.

The girl I like best looks-wise is Stacy when she's smiling, although she's irritating to me now! The one I want to win is Jenna.

Jenna is gone :-(

I guess Alicia miraculously improved her body, so she has a good chance to win. I don't like her anymore, though. She's so surly. I had to live in group homes and I had major family problems, but I don't go around being nasty with a pity-me attitude.

I guess of the three left, I like Stacy. I'm glad two of the three judges don't see her small breasts as a negative feature. Only Roshumba doesn't like that.

Well Jeanna.... a pin up?? I thought that's what the guys like to see in Sports Illustrated... she resented the critic and I can sympathize with her. Such a surprise though to see her gone.

Shannon was another surprise, she magically improved her presentation... she may still look too "safe" (that male critic doesn't like to feel 'safe" when looking at the cover girl), but even he had to agree she improved a lot. She does have a more sculpted body than Alicia and Stacy, but I agree that she still looks "nice" but not "strikingly beautiful".
Stacy has height and can be fun watching her move, but her mouth still too big which gives a too big smile showing too much of her teeth...
I agree Alicia is playing the "poor me" a bit too much and that reflects in her photos.

But with Jenna gone, I can't see what the critics are up to... Sometimes it looks like Stacy, sometimes Alicia but then again... Shannon could be a surprise win.

I can't wait to see Bora Bora, I have a photo from my friend's honeymoon, simply heaven!!

interesting that the fake boobs were a reason to dismiss Jenna. I do agree that they were too big for her body though.


BUT seriously, since when is SI swimsuit search about making a statement??

Oh well, I'd say Stacey has this win in the bag except the judges seem really fickle? as to whom they choose to leave. Frankly I am surprised she has made it this far considering her closeset eyes. For most models this is a HUGE issue as it doesnt allow versatility in angles.

I was surprised to see the guy insisting on Stacy when most of them were set on Shannon.

It seems Alicia was preferred by all, however, I would have liked to see the photographs and the difference between the three girls. Even if they all three had a great shoot I still would have liked to see the end result. (Top Model is certainly a better show just for this, we get to see the difference).

I was glued to the tv just to enjoy the sight, Bora Bora is truly spectacular.

I guess you people in the States get to vote for the winner.

Had Stacey stayed instead of Shannon, I would vote for her. So now it look like Alicia will get the vote. She is more sporty looking than shannon.

ARGH! I just got a chance to watch my recording of last night's show. I went to vote and IT'S OVER! ARGH!

I so want Shannon to win! I think she looks much better for SI and I just plain like her more.

Alicia is beautiful and I'm sure she'll have a great career. I'd just rather that she came in second for this one thing. :-) (Which, of course, means she's probably a shoe-in to win!)

I'm SO glad Alicia won! She did seem to have a fire in her belly, and I really was a bit turned off by Shannon's overconfident attitude. I thought Shannon has an "all American girl next door" kinda look. But Alicia has an exotic beauty that will make you look twice, and you won't forget her!

I've never watched this show, but Shantel was most definitely NOT happy that Alicia won, lol ...

Well, I'm happy for Alicia and hope she gets over the diva attitude and has a nice career. I still prefer Shannon's look, but then I've never purchased an SI Swimsuit issue, so. . . :-)

I do think that Shannon will get offers. THe Lycra folks sure seemed to like her best. I wouldn't be surprised if they make her some sort of offer.

Missed this final. Glad that I missed it though...didnt really care for either of the two girls.

I really thought the blonde had the win but she left third. Mind you, considering so much of SI bathingsuit pictorials are VERY revealing and almost softcore, I am sure that the youngster wouldnt have cooperated well.

Shannon had her limits and knows what she wants. Alicia was an open book. She seems willing to do ANYTHING including nudity to get attention so they would prefer her over any of the others.

The right girl won.

Shannon will succeed no matter what she decides to do. After all, she was already a working model before this show.

I picked Alicia to win about 4 weeks ago, even before her 'primadonna' stunt, and after Jenna left I was sure she'd win against whoever was left.
Shannon has a great body but something in her face makes me say "not the one". Alicia, even if not as tall as Shannon, is well proportioned and has the "look", her face is exotic and mysterious and a shy smile that attracts instead of wanting to look at her legs...for example.

I still think that all of the girls eliminated could have great modelling careers.

I guess we didn't see...clearly the photo shoots because they want us to buy the magazine and see it there... Okay, I'll take a look...

(Don't forget, Top Model starts in mid March)

Costa, I was pulling for Shannon but was put off by her comments. But I am quite sure that they have similar quotes from Alicia that they chose not to air.

The show last night was very cheesy, the set was horrendous, and it was in poor taste to have the kicked off contestants state who they wanted to win. What purpose does that serve and is that entertainment? I liked Betty's answer the best, she wanted herself to win!

I'm feeling a bit sorry for Alicia... when they announced she had won, you could practically see the dollar signs in the eyes of her family members.... I fear she'll be hit up constantly for money now that she'll be earning a fat paycheck.

I agree with ya Happygal. I was glad she won but I saw how excited her family was and thought the same thing. Well I hope she has a good career anyway.

Finally, my pick won. Was so pulling for the underdog, and the girl from the other side of the tracks, so to speak.
The other girls were so jealous of her, they didn't even want to vote for her. That's when I knew she would win. They knew it, but, would never give her the satisfaction of saying it. I wish her the best and hope she has a great advisor w/ her to guide here thru her contract.

Dipo,

RNO has great recaps. Here's the link to the show you missed (it might take what seems forever to load):

Well, the issue is out. THe website has a few pics of Alica. I don't think any of them are particularly outstanding, but that's just me and I'm only looking at the ones that are free for non-subscribers. Anyone get the magazine?

From the New York Post - February 16, 2005 -- "SPORTS Illustrated: Swimsuit Model Search" winner Alicia Hall is already enjoying the perks of being a newly minted reality TV star. The Las Vegas native, 19, was spotted canoodling with male mannequin Tyson Beckford the other night at Glo, where Sean Combs threw a glitzy bash for designer Zac Posen. Vivica A. Fox, Michelle Rodriguez, Busta Rhymes, Irv Gotti and Foxy Brown were in the crowd, and many of the guests were transfixed by the sight of two models in mating mode.

I saw a special tv show of Sports Illustrated Swimsuit a couple of nights ago, there were lots of different girls shooting in the most exotic places and a brief note about the magazine featuring the new model from the Swimsuit Model Search show with a pic of Alicia.
I looked around for the darn magazine but I can't find it here... maybe it's sold only in the States. drat!
