Rslover, I absolutely love Thai food, my favourite dish being Thom Ka Ghai (sp?) hot & sour coconut soup, served over a flaming salver.

Why in the world are they blurring out a cigarette in Eva's hand? (When Eva and Norelle are in white & black kimonos and Eva apologizes to Norelle?) So weird.

So THIS is where this thread is!! I was wondering if nobody watched this show on this board!! I never watch American Idol, so I never came into this folder!! Now I can get some stuff off my chest. Phew!! Yaya is a joke. I cannot believe a few episodes ago when she spat out the umeboshi! How rude. And when she was snooty about the cheap African hat. Ugh!! I want her out next. Norelle to me seems like the best looking, most versatile, with regards to looks. But man does she ever come off as ethnocentric and ignorant about other cultures. Yikes!! Eva's skin is horrible (so is Yaya's), but wow was I impressed that she took the best picture with the tarantula. I can't say I'm a big fan of her personality either. The blonde blind girl creeps me out. I don't know why. I don't see her as pretty AT ALL, and her hair looks fried like recent pictures of Nicole Kidman. Is this some kind of trend I don't know about? Ann seems so butch and not pretty. I would probably enjoy playing hockey, or baseball with her. Honestly, there is nobody left for me to pull for. I'll pull for Norelle, because the rest I don't like looking at. But let's just hope she gets a non-speaking contract based in LA. I REALLY liked Toccara. She was awesome. I hope she goes far. Anyways, that's all I have to say. Off to watch the rest of the episode tonight!!

So funny you said you were pulling for Norelle cuz halfway into the show I was thinking she was the "obvious" winner. Ha! Shows what I know!

Awwww!!! I would have never guessed from what they are saying right now in the panel. I would have thought ANN should have gone.

ACK!! That SUCKED. I totally dislike Ann. Who am I kidding, I dislike most of them. And I thought that Tyra commenting about how some words are just words, and some are from ugly places. I thought if anyone was speaking from an internal ugly place, it was Ann, and not Eva. Oh well. I'm becoming very disenchanted with sequel of reality shows. Second season of Apprentice has had few contestants worth rooting for, and the best ones go early. Same thing here. I just don't get it. Where to they find people that come off so deplorable?

Will someone please explain to me why they keep keeping Ann? Poor Jay just goes nuts trying to get her to pose well! And I really think she has some serious issues in the area of Eva. Tonight was the first time I've felt some sympathy for Eva and not because her words weren't hurtful but because of the pack mentality that attacked her. It's been obvious from the beginning that Eva doesn't think about how her words effect people but I'd like to think that she's growing in that area and will continue to do so. And then to see Ann's look of superiority while walking before the judges at the end . . might she have been feeling smug at how much she had upset Eva? Listening to the judges all changing their minds about Eva because of her crying tonight made me think it was quite a calculating move on Ann and YaYa's part. Norelle should have no problem getting work when hits New York and heck, could even go back to Japan and get work! On a side note ~ I'm half watching Project Runway and swear I saw Amanda on the runway.

weird show tonight. From Jay's reaction EVERYONE was doing a crummy job infront of the camera....yet there at the end...excellent pics. I truly dont blame the girls for awkward poses. Jay really doesnt LIKE Ann so of course her's are never as good as Eva's. I didnt see the others as attacking Eva earlier in the show. I saw Ann laying out her thoughts and feelings and Yaya agreeing. Norelle kept out of it, Amanda kept out of it. Eva, who acted like a bully thru most of the season, was floundering without Ann backing her. Later we see Eva trying to spin things HER way. When that doesnt work.......well, I saw Eva's tears infront of the judges as MANIPULATION. It worked and I think kept her in the show longer. Norelle worked it and the Japanese lady was right, she COULD get work in Japan and is the most marketable. I was NOT surprised that Nigel was SO antiNorelle yet pro-Ann. He has absolutely loved Ann since day 1 and fights for her. I thought for sure that Norelle took the show.......now I will bet on Ann. As someone said earlier, Yaya and Eva have bad skin...that doesnt give a good impression in person and means TONS of airbrushing on the final pics.

i was so sad to see norelle go! she was my favorite. i don't know, she is kinda dorky, and i like the dorky or nerdy-seeming ones. just like i liked shandi last season. anyway, i think ann is the prettiest one left, but her pics are just awful. how often do you see top models being interviewed vs. seeing them in photographs? i hardly ever see them interviewed. i thought norelle should have stayed. i am not crazy about any of them at this point. if i had to choose based on who looks best in pics, i'd go with eva. i don't care much for her attitude, tho. and amanda just creeps me out. the eyes and the hair together are just too much. she reminds me of one of those kids from village of the damned. why did they do that to her hair? i liked it better brown. and i don't like her attitude either. i guess it's not called "america's best personality" though. i wish norelle luck. i hope that whomever said she would have no trouble getting work is right.

Tyra was on Dave Letterman last night, she looked really great, that hair is gorgeous. She said she has gained 60 pounds since her modelling days. She does look especially bustier, but I think she is still stunning.

I would have liked to see that interview. Tyra was just a youngster when she started out modelling. Werent we ALL 60lbs lighter when we were 15 yrs old?? ROTFL BUT realistically, I'd love to know REAL weights. I should go research TYRA's stats. I would say she is maybe 20lbs heavier than would be prime. When she came out infront of the Temple wearing that robe when the girls first got to Japan, it was obvious Tyra was quite hippy. (compared to her previous self) *** ROTFL Village of the Damned!! Havent thought about that movie for yrs. YEP, amanda DOES look like she is doing a remake LOL

I know I'll get jumped on for this, but I'll ask anyways, because I know I'm not racist. Does anyone think that by Yaya constantly saying, "I'm an intelligent black woman," That she almost sounds like she believes that it is a DISTINCTION from other black women, and that sort of insults other black women? I think by advertising her intelligence in conjunction with her colour, she basically shows she BUYS INTO the 'black women aren't intelligent' crap. Like she's pointing out she's an exception to the rule, sounds like she's insulting other black women. Does anyone else know what I'm saying?

OK, so much for studying. I watched the whole episode tonight. Well, at least I won't hear Ann's grating nasal voice anymore. Amanda is going to win this thing. But she really DOES look like she's from the Village of the Damned!! BLEGH!! I can't believe they didn't call out Yaya on skipping a go-see. And her comment about not going to let the OTHERS have a win. Shocking!!! OK I have an exam tomorrow. I NEEEEEED to get studying!!

First off, good luck on your exam tomorrow, Eeyore! 2nd ~ I only saw the last 11 minutes so maybe more happened tonight between Ann and Eva then I know about but I considered Ann's behavior as she left to be very poor. And yes, I do realize how young she is but she should have never made it as far as she did in this competition to begin with. A part of me can't help but think the so-called 'refined' YaYa and Amanda truly played Ann against Eva to upset both of them and cancel them out as competition. I truly don't like any of these girls remaining but after the last week and then Ann's very public snub of Eva tonight as she left, I will root for Eva. Let's face it, a model is suppose to attract you to a product so you will buy that product. Looking over the portfolio's, the only one who would cause me to stop and look at a product is Eva. But I agree with Eeyore ~ Amanda will probably win On to Runway . . . . .

Yaya just gets on my nerves!!! OOOHhh, she LET someone else win for a change ...pfffffffffttt!! I wanted her to go soo bad tonite but knew it would be Ann. I want Eva to win, she is beautiful. I think her eyes are much more pretty and alluring that Amanda's.

My son loves Yaya and dislikes Eva, so we are constantly yelling NOOOOOOOOO when one of them gets a compliment!

Eeyore, I thought similarly when Yaya made that comment about being "an intelligent black woman." Why couldn't she just say "an intelligent woman?"

I overall think Eva is most attractive, but then one time one of the judges commented on her nose (being piglike or something) and now that little nose always seems to stick out to me. To me she looked so cute as a baby and her nose really does look like a baby nose...
