America's Next Top Model: Cycle 9

[smiley21]

That was a nice little twist at the end. I am so glad Ebony went home!

I was laughing at the ending! Ambreal kept saying "thank you God" and I thought, "she should be saying thank you Ebony".

I haven't decided on a favorite yet. I liked Jenah's look in the beginning, but her ratty extensions make her look awful. I like Chantal's look but everything she says seems SO airheaded. Heather keeps winning "Cover Girl of the Week" - I wonder if it will be another sweep like Cycle 4 with Naima?

I am not a fan of Lisa's at all, that whole exotic dancer act at the beginning turned me off. (It may also be because I thought she was going to be a "Jade"...and because her name is Lisa, just like the crazy Lisa of the past.)

I've also never been a fan of Ebony's and was definitely relieved when she took herself home. She entered the competition so fierce, but definitely lost it when she tried to 'be nice' so that the other girls would like her. Womp womp.

As well as Heather is doing, the social aspect of modeling will not be her strong suit, and I think that may hinder her from being the winner. Other than Heather- Chantal, Bianca (she's growing on me) & sometimes Saleisha are my picks. Jenah takes some great shots, but I can't get past the 'trailer-trash' look she goes for at panel.

Wow... But so accurate!

There is not favorite right now, but I was really digging Heather's picture. She did a great job and looked stunning. I still like Saleisha. Bianca would've been cool, but the "hater" label that they've put on her is stuck in my head.

Heather was GORGEOUS at the shoot with Mary J. Blige. And she was far from shy with Tyson Beckford. Of course she was shy afterwards, but she totally went for it. Consider me impressed.

Bianca's growing on me.

Jenah take gorgeous pics, but her hair is so not cute when she does it herself.

Everyone else can go home. Even Chantal, who I want to like more, but her pics are nothing special to me.

The thing though with Heather, and I'm seeing this purely from a sped and "social" standpoint, what an impact she would make. There aren't many people in entertainment (modeling, acting, etc...) that have disabilities. And when I say disabilities I am talking mental disabilities (Learning disabled, Mildly or moderately mentally retarded, Autism (or in Heather case Asbergers). Yes, there are people with disabilities (cancer, Hodgkins, etc...). I don't know I just think it would be so POWERFUL for Heather to be a spokesperson for people with Austim spectrum disorders to say "yes, you can do this!".

Plus, if they can choose Jaslene, who can't FRICKIN TALK! Seriously, they need to put subtitles for us viewers when we watch the stupid "my life as a cover girl" commercials, because I'm getting every other word from her mouth. Plus, it's retarded how the make her talk so slow. It just makes her sound even more stupid, IMPO.

Surely they can have a model who is absolutely beautiful, takes amazing pictures and I'm sure has a good runway walk, but is "socially akward".

I'm also having a hard time with Jaslene's "My Life as a Cover Girl" spots. I really loved her during the season and didn't have trouble understanding her, but now she's driving me a little crazy. They gave Danielle (Dani?) SO much trouble for her accent, but not to Jaslene.
