This made me El Oh El...especially with all of the BS minority requirements I've been dealing with at work...

I just watched the re-broadcast show and based on the final three I think Animat should have won.

I ranked them -
1st - Animat
2nd- Allison
3rd - Teyonna


Since Paulina was fired, do you think Janice is coming back? Please, please, please, pulllleeezzzeee!!!!!

I don't really buy into patterns or theories that have to do with race, but this does fit the "black girl wins every three cycles" pattern...

There IS a racial component to the show...of course there is...CG doesn't want the same kind of girl year after year just as a business measure and Tyra wants to keep the ratings up. This goes back to Nicole winning over Nik in cycle 5 since Naima won in cycle 4 and they didn't want a person of color 2 cycles in a row.

I definitely think that being on Allison's side and not Teyona's was probably one of the reasons Paulina got canned. Janice is on a new show called Celebrities in the Jungle or something like that so I doubt she's coming back.

I just laughed soooooo hard. :D You remind me forcefully of Ms. "America's Next Top Best Friend."

I know, I know......one can still wish.......


Anyway, I saw Janice on TMZ last night - TRAIN WRECK!!!! She went into the restaurant drunk and came out more drunk. I'm sure this is not the squeaky clean image CG wants to be associated with.

*end slight hijack*

IMO, I always thought CoverGirl played a huge part in picking the winner until this cycle, considering that the show is one big CoverGirl commerical. But I don't think this anymore because why on EARTH would they pick Teyona? Of the final three, I think she is furthest from looking like a CoverGirl. If CoverGirl wanted a black girl so they could change it up, I really think they would have picked Aminat. I don't think she was the best, but I would have assumed CoverGirl would have like her better than Teyona.
