I mean, really, if Soror Robin is full figured.....I must be Shamu's twin. And I only wear a size 14. LOL!!!!!!

*Breathing slowly.......*

Ok, I am back to normal!

AMEN! It has been urking me since day one to hear folks call Robin big!

And WHEW Janice should be the LAST person to judge someone on their looks.

She said that she put on the top, and had herself covered with her arm, but when she called out to Jay, her arm fell and so she was showing through the blouse.

That's a bunch of BOLOGNA!!!!! Sorry...I think she shook them boobies at Jay and now she's trying to cover her busted self.

Robin is a very average, normal 10 or 12 to my eyes. But unfortunately, the fashion industry considers her a plus-size.

(I thought Tyra said she didn't have anything on?) It was kind of dropped at that point.

I was trying to give Robin the benefit of the doubt, but now I am not so sure. I was under the impression that she showed her chest prior to the nude photo shoot b/c on the show Jay tells Elyse during the photo shoot. Also, she told Tyra she didn't have on a top, so where did the see-through blouse come from. So, now I have to say, Robin just may be lying....

I know the winner will probably be Elyse but a girl can hope, can't she?

I thought this incident happened the week BEFORE they had to pose nude. Both Tyra and Jay said that she didn't have a top on AT ALL. I think she's embarrased to be called out like that so now she's trying to cover it up. But isn't that what we all would do if we had been busted on national televison?

ETA: C&E, I think we were posting at the same time. Didn't mean to copy what you said.

I was just so disappointed in her. I know that she is not doing this to impress me, but I am so unimpressed. I didn't think that she was going to be the one that was represented as a liar, not someone who is sacrilegious. She did so many things that I just didn't think that she would do because I guess I thought that someone over twenty-five would realize how these things were going to look.

I'm glad that she is going to be working for Baby Phat, but I have never worn the products and will not start wearing them because a Tennessee State Alum who happens to have pledged a sorority is marketing them. I wish that Kesse would have gotten a piece of the pie since I enjoyed her character more (until she went shopping instead of going to work). I don't know -- maybe it's in the editing since I know that the show continued to show the same shot of the Robin looking at the food like it was going to move or something. I don't know . . . I am not going to watch anymore because the girls that I wanted to see are gone and the folks that are left . . . well, any of them could win and it wouldn't make a difference to me at this point.

I say Adrienne

Skeelicious1 · #8 07-02-2003, 05:45 PM

I've noticed that every week there is a clip of Robin speaking about her religion and her faith. Take a good look at these clips, she has the same hair, makeup, clothes... I think the editors keep going back to earlier made comments by Robin and put them in to fit the situation...

DontHaveAClue · #9 07-02-2003, 05:49 PM

Things that make you go hmmmmmm... interesting observation I taped this episode so I'm going to go back and look at that.

Skeelicious1 · #10 07-02-2003, 05:54 PM

I dunno, I do remember Jay saying that Miss Tyra was behind the dressing room and heard the whole thing. When you review the tape, did Jay say she "saw" the whole thing? I personally don't think Tyra saw anything. I think Jay or Elyse brought it to her attention.

Another thing, if I wanted to go shopping and just shopping, then guess what, I would go shopping!

I don't recall once Robin calling any of the other girls such nasty names as what they have called her. I.E., Trailer park and the 12 year old have called Robin and some of the other girls b*tches, on numerous occasions.

"I said I want to go shopping!"

You know, when some people just start getting into religion or get "saved" or something, their religion and God is ALL they talk about. It's a new feeling to be close to God and they want to share that with everyone. I can't hate her for it, whether it's who she really is or just became. Either way, she was a little extreme about it.

Come on! Her religion should have taught her that she can have fun, but within limits. And I'm sure that she has "lusted" behind someone before. I remember one of the earlier posts saying that she dated a football player. I KNOW that she had to "lust" after something and it dayum sure wasn't his personality....

Could be... but it's still no exuse. Whatever happened to eating what is set before you and treating your neighbor as yourself. I think it is common knowledge that the fashion industry is not exactly the moral compass of society, so knowing that, her actions were just out of place. When she didn't come to the table to eat with everyone when Adrienne's mom was visiting I was just like this chick is rude, period. Maybe if she set that Bible down and quit reading about what a Christian is she would be able to act like one.

That heffa (Robin) shook them boobies and is trying to cover up now. That is true about her having the same makeup and clothes on in the confessional (or whatever it is). But you still can't deny the fact that while some of the girls where talking or bonding she was reading her Bible. I mean she was supposed to be taking care of business and she was reading the Bible on a mission. So I believe she was portrayed correctly and in the end she got busted and now she is trying to save face and change the story saying she had a shirt on. I mean come on now. your religion also teaches you honesty. Let's come clean about it.

I respect your opinions. However, that is how I feel. I am one of those people who happen to have my Bible everywhere I go. I do believe that it is about how you walk, talk, etc. I didn't say that I agreed with everything Robin did. I did however say that it caused me to look within myself in regards to how I show my love for God to others. That's a good thing.

I am not taking your response to what I said as a personal attack. Everyone is entitled to their own opinions. I respect that.

I totally understand and I respect your opinion!

i can't knock soror for not wanting to pose nude. but, there are just TOO MANY things she doesn't want to do. what is she willing to do?? she's trying to be a model right?? **as an aside, if i'm going to get bucket nekkid for a photo shoot, i'd want to stunt some bigger diamonds than that!!**

what is really going to bother me if elyse wins is (1) she doesn't believe in God and (2) she has repeatedly said that she doesn't want to be a model.

concerning issue #1, i can't figure out how someone CAN'T believe. but, i'm a Christian and am entitled to that. i just can't wrap my mind around the thought that AMERICA'S (see "in God we trust" and "one nation under God..." and various other references to the Lord in America's tenants) top model is atheist.

and it would be soooo unfair to those who auditioned and didn't make it and to those who made it but were eliminatetd and to those that remain if elyse wins. SHE DOESN'T WANT TO BE THERE! SEND HER LIL AZZ HOME!!

* i'm not going to even touch that lesbo mess other than to say...COULDN'T HAVE BEEN ME! I'D A LAID THE BIZ OUT AND SAID "HEY! I AINT WIT ALL THAT!! PUT YO' DAYUM SHIRT BACK ON !"
