I think it lasts a year (or until the next winner comes?). Yes, Adrienne would've caved to Shannon if it had been CG. What I don't get is why Fatima made it onto the show at her weight. There have been one or two girls in the past who didn't make it onto the show because they were too thin and that's not the image Tyra wanted to present. Fatima is a scary size zero and even a designer said she wouldn't book her because she's too thin. I wonder what it was (her talent, her story, etc.) that got her through? Nothing against her, just wondering.

I meant the show's contract. I think they should move on to MAC or Sephora or some other beauty company. It'll change the competition and I won't be so good at picking who will go home because they aren't Cover Girl.

[hijack] What was Cover Girl thinking when they signed up Drew Barrymore. I <3 her but I think she's more Revlon than Cover Girl. [/hijack]

You took the words out of my mouth!

Estee Lauder owns MAC. They (EL) are far too control freaky to leave any aspect of their marketing up to fate.

CG was floundering, if I recall, and losing market share to Maybelline and other companies when they became affiliated w/ ANTM. If it's made their sales $$ go up, I doubt they'll be bowing out anytime soon. Not to mention it assures they'll get pages in Seventeen - no small thing these days, especially when stuff like Chanel is being pitched to that market.
