Dang, I just KNEW this thread was gonna be on and poppin' today.

I also cried when the girl said that she would be completely blind in less than 5 years. I think her eyes are really beautiful.

I really like YaYa and Eva, if she can lose the 'tude. Eva is really pretty, but now that I think about it I don't like her hair. Everytime I see her hair it reminds me of Kramer from Seinfeld.

I don't think I like Kelly at all. Not because of the way she is, but because she reminds me of a girl I went to HS with. :rolleyes:

Toccara better work it out!! I really like her attitude.

J. Alexander still keeps me rolling with his commentary. I was CTFU when Tyra said she calls his Mrs. J.

And what about the girl from Miami who had the beer poured over her head. :o :eek: Okay, see I don't care what was going on at that moment, but I would have wanted to fight and in that situation I don't blame her at all.

I can see this season will have me hooked. Too bad I have to tape it every week. :(

I was very glad when Tyra told Eva that she didn't want to cast another "black bitch", although I didn't believe it. That keeps people tuning in.

Anyway, I'm glad to see more people of color. Especially Kelle, who happens to have skin of a darker hue, which is rarely considered beautiful by society's standards. I think she's cute.

EGAD!!!
I MISSED IT :( For some reason, I was thinking it was at 9 instead of 8. Are they gonna air it again?

i got a LOT to say...
 

Soror Queen of Funk :D

We had the same thoughts throughout the show.

I also thought ol' girl was a man!!! I was really sad when she told the girls about her disability. I hope the girls don't use that against her to get her off the show.

Eva, I love everything about her except the attitude. I loved her hair!! She just spells America's Next Top Model to me. I hope that she doesn't revert to those old ways by the time she show gets good.

Ya Ya is a very pretty girl. I love her because she's your typical African American girl! I hope she gets far in the competition.

I'm just so pleased with the line up this year. We have women of all ethnicities, so I don't really have any favorites yet.

The girl from Miami had me rolling the ENTIRE SHOW! I loved the fact that she was ready for change in her life. I hate that she had to go back and face that harsh reality. I pray that she gets away from all of that negativity.

The first episode was OFF THE HOOK!

I'm already hooked!

Friday @ 8 EST

THAT's WHAT HER HAIR reminded me of. I kept thinking her hair is not natural. I want Eva to not be Camille so badly.

That weave was hella atrocious. She reminded me of a former student, weave and all, minus the whole fighting thing. I am not a fighter but I would have been kicking some tail THAT NIGHT!!!

I thought too because I saw minutiae evidence of breasts. Her EYES are GORGEOUS though. :(

Yes, it was!

I'm the outcast because I like Camille. I thought Eva was wrong for the way she went about telling the girl that she looked "nasty." She ain't neva lied, but the approach was all wrong. :o I think that Eva is cute and she has a good chance.

I am upset that Tiffany didn't get picked because this might have been the break that she needed. She had the best "sob story" of all. The girl from Backatown, MN and that stripper didn't impress me. :rolleyes: I hope that Tiffany can really do something better with her life. I hope that someone sees her and reaches out to her.

I am pulling for YaYa!! Natural sistas RULE!!! :p :D

Watching this show, I've discovered how much I really like Tyra Banks. She seems warm, straightforward, and down-to-earth. It must have been terribly hard to break the bad news to the second set of girls who had to go home but she handled it well. She even comforted that girl with the weird hair and the weird teeth in the bathroom.

How about my LS has me watching this now!!! She came over to hang out and was like "Let's watch America's Next Top Model"!!! I just have to say that I've got a jones for this show now!!!!! And.....I LOVE EVA & AMANDA!!!!! This is going to be a very interesting show!!!!

I have a couple of thangs:

First off, let me just say that although Eva's attitude needed to be checked in the beginning, she did 'serve it' as they said when she walked in during that first walk-in. And I knew Tyra was trying to break her because she kept asking her who used to talk to her like that and on and on, until finally eva broke down.

Amanda.......gorgeous eyes, but why did she wait until she got picked in the first part in order to share that she was going blind? I mean, I'm just worried about what type of spots she will get as a model. I mean, going blind, she really can't walk the run-way very long. Nor could she do a commercial where she has to move around a lot. I don't know. I mean, that's not to say that she couldn't, but how easy will that be for her?

Rachel......I would never cut my hair like that, but I really thought that was cute on her. The one with blonde hair and a thick black streak in the front? Yeah, that was kind of funky for her. It was cute. I kind of felt bad for her when she didn't get picked though.

And that girl from Miami.......she kind of made me upset, thinking that modeling was her only way "out of the hood". I mean, I don't know her WHOLE story, but that comment kind of bothered me. I don't know. These are all just my opinions.

Toccara......She is so pretty and I was proud that she got picked.

First of all, when this girl said she was from Miami, I was wondering what part. Low and behold, the home video comes on and Miami Carol City is sitting in the background. I was like OMG!! That is 15 minutes from my house, lol. It's not your average ghetto, that you wouldn't be caught in past 9:30, but there are some clowns around there. I also had a feeling that there was some drama about to go down between her and somebody. Never did I think it would be chick in the bar. I agree with her on the fact that she had to retaliate and especially coming from that school, oh no, all hell would have broken loose. Carol City has some crazy behind students, lol.

However, her saying that she can't get out of the hood isn't cool. That same school has adult education classes. If she didn't get her diploma, she could still get her GED if she would work on her attitude. If not there, hell, there is a Job Corp right down the street. I really hated the way she was so hard on herself at the end. Now she's back in that slump that she feels she's doomed to stay in. If she thinks that way after a defeat, she'll stay that way.

Exactly make a better life for her son.

I was thinking the same thing abou the girl from Miami- why is modeling the only way out?:rolleyes: But, she is better than me, because ol' girl in the bar would have gotten an swift and thorough ass whuppin'. They would've been like "damn, I thought you were a model.."

The one girl was so SKINNY. She looked disgusting. I'm so glad that they didn't pick her.

Also, I was so happy to hear Tyra say "I don't want to cast another black b*tch." That is why I like Tyra, she seems to be really on point with stuff like that.
