Starts September 19th.

The Models:

Ambreal from Dallas, TX
Bianca from Queens, NY
Chantal from Austin, TX
Ebony from Chicago, IL
Heather from Valparaiso, IN
Janet from Bainbridge, GA
Jenah from Farmington, CT
Kimberly from Ocala, FL
Lisa from Jersey City, NJ
Mila from Boston, MA
Saleisha from Los Angeles, CA
Sarah from Heath, MA
Victoria from New Haven, CT

I'm still not sure who I like yet..lol. We'll see what happens when the show starts!

I'm going to pick random ones for now, Victoria or Kimberly.

I love this show but sometimes, wait most times, I question the judges and if they have brains in their heads.

Like why Jaslene and Natasha were the final two and Jaslene won, I will never understand.

But woohoo to a new season starting up so soon. Usually they take forever to start up again. Yeah!

p.s. there will be a season 10 as well, ANTM was just in Tempe like three weeks ago auditioning models, so they must be looking for season 10 (if not maybe 11) contestants! yeah!

The two that stand out to me from the group picture are the blond in the middle (Chantal) and the curly-haired girl on the right (Lisa).
Looking at the individual pictures, I also think Sarah is very pretty. I like that none of the girls remind me of previous contestants. :)

I like Sarah...reminds me of Helena Christiansen.

Saleisha is my other fav to start!

Concur. Although I think the blonde is beautiful, and the curly-haired girl, while very striking, has something about her face that is striking me as weird.

She looks like she might be mixed...maybe black and asian?

Ambreal is a pretty name

I watched the 5min video preview for about 2sec on each girl and I liked Heather and Felicia. But what I really like was Tyra saying that people were going to say "why'd you pick THAT girl" but then when pictures are taken people will be like "ooo OK. that makes sense." I can't wait to see it!

Today's the day. Yay for the new season! :D

sooo excited!!! i have to tape it though cause I have a COR tonight :rolleyes: haha

Yeaaaaaaaaa! ANTM is back!!!

sooo whats everyone think? im excited for this season.. interesting looking girls :)

I liked a lot of the girls that they picked (except Mila and Ebony, who are both obnoxious).

I don't like Mila's look at all right now. The European features thing just doesn't do it for me. EDIT: I just went and looked at her online and I see it now, she can be very pretty.

Ebony's gorgeous even though she's a bit abrasive. She reminds me of a mix and Danielle (with better speech) and someone else that I just can't put my finger on yet.

I also really like slouchy Heather. I mean sure she has to work on her posture (A LOT), but I can see what they see in her.

I also like Chantal and Victoria. Janet looks too old in her pictures to me.

I agree about Mila and Ebony being obnoxious. I also don't care for Jenah right now. She's a little full of herself, and I think she's just weird looking.

Ditto!
 

This is exactly what I thought too. Usually the real "stars" come out after the makeover show. I'm so glad its back!

I really like Heather. I hope she kicks some A$$ this season!

Ebony, well she and her attitude need to go the way of the dinosaur.

i like chantal also.. i wish they would have kept the girl with the really heavy boston accent.. i liked her

She was 23 or 24 though. Which while in the real world isn't old, is old in the world of modeling.

yes i know :(:tear:

I'm sorry, I'm just not impressed with any of them so far. The only one who stood out just a little was Chantal. Tyra was right when she mentioned in the intros that a top model isn't the prettiest girl in the room. Lots of woofs this season.

And I won't even go into the whole bit about Asperger's Syndrome. I had a chuckle. Not that the disease is a laughing matter, but if you don't know what the hell I'm talking about...then nevermind. :rolleyes:

Yep! Which is a shame, because she is very pretty. I really liked Sylvia, who they cut earlier in the show.

I am glad Mila was the first one cut...I hope Bianca and her insults are not far behind.

I still really like Chantal and Lisa. So far, I also like Heather and Victoria.

Heather, Chantal and Victoria are my favourites.

And I can't believe they're being so mean to Heather. If I EVER knew someone had a learning disability, I would keep my mouth shut. Sure it's wrong to be mean in general, but that makes it even more wrong. Like who's going to want you to represent them later if you act like that. Being a bitch is one thing, but making fun of stuff like that is just NOT OK.

I hope Tyra gives Ebony a buzz cut when it's time for makeovers. I'm tired of that damn updo.

Mila was irritating from the beginning. I don't know if it was because she had too much sunshine up the ass or the fact that she reminded me of Lucy Camden.

THANK YOU! That's who Mila reminded me of! It has been bugging me since last week.

oh my.. she does look like lucy camden!

)!(@#!@()#*!)(...freaking A!

Why the hell did ANTM start a half hour early and why the hell did Access Hollywood air between ANTM and Gossip Girl? My DVR caught the 2nd half of ANTM and Access Hollywood!

Stupid CW. :mad:

I was hoping Bianca would go. I actually really liked Kimberly's picture.

I am not a fan of Bianca either. As for Ebony, I like her body, but I am already sick of her "I am already a loser so just send me home" attitude. Nigel was right when he said that she would never make it in the industry.

I laughed when Bianca was in the final two. I hoped she would get the boot. I wonder if she will now get a reality check and realize "omg she's not the shit she thinks she is" :rolleyes:

I thought the make-overs sucked AGAIN this year. They used to be my favorite part of the show but now it's not.
Except for Sarah and Heather, I thought all the girls looked worse after the haircuts. They distroyed Ebony and Saleisha.
And it really bugs me that they didn't dye all the girls' eyebrows to match their hair. It's really distracting on a few of them.

I have NO idea how you can say they ruined Ebony. Did you see her disgusting, glued to her head wig? Gross! And all she has is a long weave. She could get it cut shorter, no big deal.

And Saleisha's hair is much more high fashion than what she had. You could argue that it's limiting, but again, it's a weave and can always be changed.

I think most of the girls looked better this year. Bianca looked SO good with the shaved head. And Chantal's edgy bangs were spot on.

I too thought Bianca looked so much better. I mean I felt bad for her at first, but what do you expect with permed and severly colored hair? She looks awesome, I hope she embraces it.

I felt bad for Heather because they didn't do much of anything to her hair.

Chantel, well she just bugged me during the photo shoot. Her attitude of "if they would have stopped talking I could have done it" was annoying. Because the reality is, if she was realling "doing it" correct, Jay and the photographer wouldn't have had to keep giving her directions. :rolleyes:

I wasn't sad to see Victoria go, she had an attitude, much like Elyse from season 1.

I will never get over that one chick getting a weave put in AND THEN taken out in the same day! That was a good makeover session. I haven't been watching this season because I'm usually busy when it comes on, but I love the marathons on MTV! My boyfriend asked me the other day, haven't you seen this already? And I'm like, yeah, so?

That was Jael from last season. I felt bad for her. Sitting in the chair, tolerating the pain of the weave and then once it's in for Jay to say "oh wait never mind take it out". I would have been in tears too.

The makeovers weren't as much fun this year. No one, minus Bianca (who had a legit reason to cry) was in tears. That is the funnest part of the makeovers. LOL.

I didn't really think Bianca had a good reason to cry. It's her own fault her hair was so beyond damaged that they couldn't do anything with it. Besides, she looks so much better now.

Correction, her "head" does. :p

Ha ha, yes, you're right.

Yes, Ebony's wig was bad, but she was so much more attractive with shorter hair and bangs.
The long, middle parted hair makes her look like a black Donatella Versace (and that's not a compliment).

Saleisha's hair is "edgier" but it's so limiting and it doesn't look good on her, IMO.
