I can correlate the last season with these final 3. For example... I think Amanda and Naima are so much alike. They take gorgeous pictures, but in person, they are lacking something. I like Naima, but I do feel she is bland.

Keenyah and Yaya are alike also. They have that arrogance about them. Yaya had that whole "afrocentric" idea, and Keenyah feels that she deserves everything because she's "black." She refuses to even recognize that Naima is black also. She said it in the show, she said she can't think that Naima is black because she doesn't look it.

Kahlen is the harder one to place. She is like Amanda because when she's up in panel, she does have a blandness to her, but Kahlen is improving.

I honestly hope Kahlen wins, she is more like me, real quirky and such.

I don't think that Keenyah is there because she is black, because like I said, so is Naima. I don't know how Robin was "negative." Wasn't she the one that refused to take off her clothes in a shoot because she wasn't comfortable with it? She was the real religious one also, that would say "Oooh Jesus, Jesus" when they put the snake on her right? How is that negative? Maybe because I dont remember it all, but I thought she showed will-power and showed that she can still hold firm ot what she believed.

Also, EVERYONE'S photos get airbrushed....Tyra said it. When she told Keenyah that they really had to airbrush that animal photo, she said something to the effect of "We had to airbrush it so much more than all the other girls" or something like that. So Keenyah's pictures aren't the only ones getting airbrushed. Airbrushing is a reality of the business...everyone gets airbrushed.

I also don't think Keenyah was really "flirting" with the guy. She was talking to the guy, trying to be nice...but the guy was really the one trying to flirt with her, by asking for her number and such.
