ANTM-Cycle 11

[Fleur de Lis]

Has anyone else noticed that McKey has zero personality? Girls have been sent home way earlier in past seasons for that alone. However, she is gorgeous and can definitely model. Marjorie obviously has insecurity issues that I believe will be her downfall, and Samantha is way to commercial for Tyra. Analeigh is the only one I can see winning now.

I didn't see it, but it sounds like Elina went home?

Yes! I haven't watched this seasons very much at all (maybe 3 episodes?) but I think Marjorie should have gone home instead. How on earth will she talk to clients when she's all scaredy cat like that?

Marjorie will be eaten alive if she can't get a backbone. Can you imagine? While I am not a fan of Elina, I was hoping she would stay instead of Marjorie. I personally am tired of the pity me, I have no self-confidence she exhibits.

I think they made the right decision sending elina home. her posture and facial expressions seem so... fixed.

I agree, and were you as shocked as I was to learn she is only 18? I would have guessed 24 -25. I think Elina has a dark secret. Something that keeps her from "letting loose" like they keep talking about. Maybe she struggles with depression or something. She definitely has some sort of emotional wall she hides behind.

That is my attempt at armchair psychology!

Ellina had talked in past episodes about her frosty relationship w/ her mom. I'm sure that's part of it. But I had forgotten that she is only 18 and shared in Tyra's when she was reminded.

I'm really not sure how this is going to go. I thought Sheena had it in the bag.

Has anyone else noticed they aren't doing "Cover Girl of the Week" anymore? I think people kept stuffing the ballot box w/ votes contradictory to the judges' choices so they canned it.

Hmmm....my turn to psychologize her. Elina's an adamant vegetarian, very strongly invested in human/animal rights, kind of swingy on sexuality...very "liberal," in a word. My guess would be her mom holds opposite values and really rejected Elina's lifestyle, especially the sexuality piece (parents tend to get uptight about that). That's why Elina hates her mom, but at the same time blasts people who don't hold the same values she does. She is fighting for the right to have her own identity and do things her way which makes her a control freak; scared that people will reject her so she remains emotionally guarded; but yet she still rails against those who don't think like her because that's how she has been treated and is therefore all she knows.

Yes, I pulled all of that out of my butt. And it was fun.

Or could be...she is the child of a poster on a thread on the Chit Chat forum who has cut off all relationship with said child because this child has changed political parties and "turned her back on every value she was ever taught.

I do think McKey lacks personality, but she is not emotional guarded... so they won't cut her for that. Out of the remaining peeps, she is definitely the most likely to win... all I have to say, as long as it isn't sam!!!

I don't think we have to worry about a blonde winning this time. Although I really like Annaleigh.

I think McKey just looks goofy and awkward...although that's kinda "in" for modeling, so meh.

[gee_ess]

^^^ LOL!

[gee_ess]

Woo Hoo! Marjorie is gone!

My bet for final two - Annaleigh and McKey with McKey winning the whole thing.

[christiangirl]

Yeaaa! I saw Analeigh get called first, then McKey...then I had to leave. I was hoping someone would post this. Isn't it ironic that the week she FINALLY stopped being a bundle of nerves, she gets kicked off. . It should've happened a long time ago! I think she makes the 3rd girl in ANTM history to get kicked off the week she won the challenge (yeah, I watch this show too much ).

[gee_ess]

I really like the "where are they now?" updates they give each week. I enjoy seeing what the other girls have done and how far they have taken their careers.
