SOME (not all) of the contestants are considerably older, shorter, etc, than what an agency might look for in a RUNWAY model. The average "in demand" runway model is 5'11 and 16-18. Some of the girls this season are 25 and like 5'8. For a model, 25 is ancient (of course there are a FEW exceptions) and 5'8 is a dwarf.
I do like Kari though. She reminds me of Kate Moss. She has a GREAT face that might make judges overlook her lack of height. Kate Moss' face was what launched her career. She was short, for a model, but she was so beautiful, agencies took a gamble.

Maybe they should rename the show "America's Top Catalog Model" or "America's Top Fit Model," since the girls are, as you said, "older" and "shorter."
