America's Next Top Model: Cycle 10

[SoCalGirl]

Plus size models have a much greater range of sizes that are still able to get work. A size twelve used to be the average "plus size model". Which I found insane since that's not plus size. If she's an 8-10 she'll be able to get work for "higher end" labels who don't really want to be in the business but feel they have to in order to be competitive. She'd be too small to work for Lane Bryant though.

As much as i LOVE MAC and Sephora (i know they have a brand of cosmetics, but i'd say they're more of a chain that sells other brands), the average girl isn't using those. MAYBE a couple of items on a splurge, but everyday makeup in the makeup case... not so much. Sephora isnt everywhere right...? There are 3 i frequent often but what doesnt NYC have? (though i imagine in metro areas/better malls these names are common) i just figure the appeal of CG spreads wider.

I actually watched this morning (was at the dentist office) and i didn't see this season, but against the other girl, her looks wouldve made me root her her. I noticed INSTANTLY that she was plus-sized, and thought, wow OK Miss Tyra...

I went to school with a plus sized model (nothing major she said, a couple catalogs here and there) and she had horror stories of the few jobs she got from high-end labels that--GASP--carried a size 10-12-14-16 and treated her like the plague at shoots.

I wanted Anya to win solely because she's hometown girl, but I am very happy that Whitney won. I haven't watched last night's episodes yet, but judging from past performances, Whitney's clearly the right choice because she speaks and people can understand her!

Now that Whitney's won, I hope we never ever get to see or hear Saleisha ever again. She sounds horrible and the whole "Saleisha-gate" thing was just too much.

In that case, I think she's lost weight since the end of filming. I can't remember which episode, but it was one of the last 3 or so that either Whitney or Tyra stated Whit was a 12.

Lol at "Saleisha-gate." Well, the whole thing wasn't really her fault, was it? She didn't start the drama surrounding her and it wasn't her that beat the whole thing into the ground. I like Saleisha...I just like Whitney better.
