Catie needs to go, she irritates me!
I want Mercedes to win but health wise it is probably not a great idea.

Thanks for the time Kady. I would have been mad if I'd missed it tonight.

Catie will be gone soon enough-- unless she just QUITS and walks out, which would fit her style.

I'm still putting my $money$ on Shandi.

Can WE vote Tyra off the show? (please)

Damn it, Tobor7. You better be right.

Now that you mention it, I wonder how dramatically the tone of the show would change if Cindy Crawford were hosting/producing this show.

Hey Scorpiomoon! It would be A LOT better! Good suggestion.

I was waiting for one of the girls to tell Tyra during one of the photo shoots... WHO IS THE DIRECTOR here? The photographer is telling me things... Tyra is telling me things... What to do? (There is supposed to be ONE voice in a session like that.)

It seems to me like Tyra thinks the show is about her. (I wonder how many people are watching JUST to see her?)

I'm watching to see Tyra. I think she brings tons to the show. She's a woman of color, she's a defender of the non-traditional look - be it short, plus size, or whatever. She has a definate attitude, but likes to coach the contestants as well. Besides, this whole show is her baby, someone didn't just create a cookie cutter show and then insert a model. Tyra helped create how this show is structured and she'd been helping to edit together the final project. Cindy Crawford is smart as all get out, but I think Tyra does great on this show.

I don't mind her at all. It is her show and she is a supermodel. I see it as her job to mold these girls into models. Who knows better than her?

American Idol is about the contestants but Simon is definately a strong figure there and he's not even the producer, like Tyra is.

Hey, hey, hey...

I didn't mean to imply Tyra is doing a crappy job or anyone else would be a better host, I just wondered how different the show would be had another model come up with the idea.

God knows, because I'm so damn picky, NO ONE would totally please me. :-)

I would bet on Shandi winning too! I totally agree with Tobor7. There are just hints left and right ... even the mere fact that they picked her as one of the contestants. Her posture says much too because they must have had plans to make radical changes to her appearance, including her posture.

In spite of my bet, my personal choice would be Mercedes. I dare say that Mercedes is the final winner, provided Shandi isn't.

Speaking of contestants, I was wondering if ANTM really gets much appealing applicants to choose from. It just doesn't seem like it, considering their choices.

Something else: "She [Yoanna] does look older than she says she is, though (23? 24?)"

I totally agree, Yankee! That was my first thought when I saw her pictures on upn.com. She does look much older.

Which leads me to the following: Are the girls all telling the truth about their ages, heights and weights? Shandi's height reads way lower than she appears. She's taller than the rest of the girls, yet she has 5' 10" as her height. Some of the other girls seem to weigh a little more or less than they claim on their profiles. It's just my assessment though.

Gina,
I remember hearing that Cindy Crawford was smart too. For years it was repeated that she had a scholarship to go to college and was going to major in Chemistry or Biology...something like that.

I have seen her on various talk shows and more recently on Bill Maher's last show, Politically Incorrect when it was on ABC. I now believe that her smarts are some kind of "urban myth". She sat there like a rock and could not contribute anything to the discussion. When she did speak it was very unimpressive. Maybe she has business smarts but based on every appearance of hers I have seen she always looked like a deer in the headlights.

I saw Cindy's biograpy on one of the more rep. sat. channels (can't remember but think it was the NBC one). She is a brainy person. She had an older sister who was the athlete of the family.

I want the "cinderella" story! So, I think Shandi is America's Next Top Model. Go Tyra!

Cindy Crawford had a scholarship to Northwestern and was majoring in chemical engineering but dropped out to model.

I bet we're going to see a HUGE improvement in Shandi's "model walk" in the weeks to come.

Oh, I forgot to mention my thoughts on the title of the mail they get... "Tyra Mail" ??? LOL! No ego maniac there!

I agree with those who want Catie gone yesterday. I think she annoys me even more than Camille.

While Joanna looked beautiful as Audrey H.; since she got that haircut she has reminded me more and more of Sharon Osbourne. She justs looks O-L-D!

I have a soft spot for Shandi. I hope she goes far.

Overall the girls looked absolutely stunning this week. I couldn't get over how well they made them look like celebrities. (except the one who was Catherine Zeta Jones).

Who do you think will get the ax next?

I think Catie or Camille based on attitude.

I'm going to have to disagree. I think they'll keep Catie and Camille because of their attitude.

I don't think they'll get rid of Mercedes yet either. I'm guessing it'll be April or Xio.

I just came from the UPN site and read this tidbit about the upcoming episode:

"Janice Dickinson grills the girls, uncovering some shocking secrets."

Since Janice can't seem to talk about anything but herself, I'm wondering if she "grills the girls", ends up turning the tables on herself then reveals shocking secrets about her and her sordid, drug-drenched past (all in the name of promoting her book or latest project).

Can't wait to see Janice "grilling"!

Rams, you nailed it on the Sharon Osbourne hair! When the stylists do it up, it looks good. When Yoanna herself does it, it's pretty scary.

I agree, Catie and Camille have a few more episodes left just to bring the drama. I think Xiomara is probably next and Sara not long after. I can't make up my mind on April. Sometimes I think she's one of the best and others I think she's the worst.

It's an underwater photo shoot this week. Wonder if Catie fears drowning? Last year's photo shoots were so much better. These are bizarre and ridiculous.

I think hanging over that pit for the photo shoot was so unnecessary. I can't see any reason for it. The girls were so hunched up you couldn't see the fashions. It really could have been dangerous if the rigging had failed, else why was the ambulance standing by? If they really wanted that hanging look, they could have achieved the same effect by suspending the girls above the floor instead of a 10-story pit. Also, I didn't see any purpose in aggravating someone's fear of heights, as I don't think Catie was pretending; she was petrified.
But I liked their make-up, the feather eyelashes were gorgeous.

The point of the pit was not really for the photo or the fashions... it was to see if they can overcome their fears and still get the job done (like the snake last year).

The ambulance was for insurance purposes and to make the girls a bit more scared... not to mention the TV drama of it. (yawn)

If the girls don't REACT they don't get DRAMA. No drama? No fun to watch. So they have to keep putting them in stress situations, whatever they may be. Even if it is making them all use one mirror or one bathroom to get ready in 15 minutes.

Hey... remember, this show isn't called "Call to Courage" Haha-- it's called "BlaBlaBla something something MODEL." (They are trying to make it play like CALL TO COURAGE. Maybe it is not necessary.)

For the record I like the show anyway.

I saw Tyra on a talk show and she said every shoot is based on something she has had to do as a model. Yep, she said, she had to hang in the air three stories up for a shoot once.

I think Shandi looks much better (since her makeover) but if her walk doesn't improve, she should be the next to go. Kind of rooting for Mercedes because of her illness. Lupus can be very painful and debilitating and I have to give her much credit for hanging in there. Still waiting for the "orgy" scene Tyra talked about!

I say:

I knew it! Tyra doesn't have enough original creative thought to be able to come up with something on her own. She had to steal all the photo shoot ideas from someone who already thought them up. (feeble)
