This show isn't about "high fashion model material" and hasn't been since CG got involved. It's about the cult of Tyra, pushing whatever issues she decides to push that season (with contestants who fit the bill of course) and finding a model who fits whatever demographic Cover Girl wants to market to that year.
But it's fun to watch anyway.  |
Oh I didn't know that about Shandi. I agree with you on the CG agenda, but the show is billed as "top model". I guess the title is open to interpretation.
It IS a lot of fun to watch. I enjoy the photo shoots and the challenges. I could do without the elimination round, and Tyra's melodramatic "you are still in the running to be America's NEXT Top Model". My big sis and I love the show. We have a running joke about the show teaching life lessons. It's pure entertainment, and I love getting lost in it.
