Allison's my favorite too!!! She's so interesting and seems like a nice girl to boot! That nose bleed thing was a bit weird but I'm willing to overlook it... I'm just glad Sandra got eliminated, I cheered when that happened!

I really liked Fo and I'm kind of bummed she left. I was rooting for Aminat to go home...

Ok, I just finished watching (yay DVR).

First off all, I think I said it once but I'll say it again...

THIS IS THE WORST CYCLE EVER!!!! I'm sorry but I don't think any of the remaining girls are that pretty. I know, I know, Tyra, there's "more to modeling than pretty" but really?

I really didn't like anyone throughout the season, but if I had to pick it WAS Fo...

I guess if I had to pick a new favorite it would be Aminat. I don't really think she has that pretty of a face and I can't stand when she opens her mouth to talk, but she's got an INSANE body, great walk, and I LOOOOOOVE her skin tone.

Allison is my next pick. At first I didn't like her cause the producers made her the token oddball. (You know, there's always a weirdo, always a plus size, always someone who was some kind of victim)...and I HATE when shows do that. But now that they've stopped that, and we got to see what she's really like besides her quirks, I like her personality. She has good pics, but definite just needs more confidence, and just a little bit more versatility.

Then I'd pick Celia. I love how passionate she is about fashion, and how much she wants to be in the industry. Although she does look old, she looks fresh at the same time. But yeah, I think that she does look very old...and she's just starting to get on my nerves, I can't figure out why.

And Teyona needs to go. Her hairline starts on the top of her head. That's all I'm going to say about that.

That's just my two cents... lol

I know that Tyra says that modeling is more than just being pretty but really when you look at magazine ads that you find in Cosmo or commercials on tv do you really see someone looking like Allison? Or any of them really?

I watch Make Me a Supermodel on Bravo and think that they definitely have more of the typical model types. I still do enjoy ANTM, though maybe not as much this cycle.

This is the problem, they are trying to pick someone who's going to be a good mass market cosmetics spokeswoman (for a line directed at younger women) AND a good couture/runway model. The only time that happened was 15-20 years ago with the supermodels. The gap between what runway models and mass market models look like nowadays is so huge as to be ridiculous and Tyra needs to quit thinking she can close it.

I liked Fo, but it definitely seemed like she was struggling. I think Aminat is GORGEOUS, if only she could step it up a notch she might have a chance at winning. I like Celia, but think her look is too old to win. Similar to Renee from the cycle Jaslene won. Right now I see it being between Teyona and Allison.

This cycle is awfully boring. It's pretty obvious that Teyona is going to win...and I find her as exciting as McKey last season. Ugh! And I'm sorry, but her hair is TERRIBLE...why did Tyra think that slicked back mullet-looking style would be attractive?

This season SUCKS. No one has quit, Tyra hasn't flipped out on anyone, we don't have anyone as crazy as Lisa from Cycle 5 or annoying as Melrose from Cycle 7. I kind of want to bring back the out lesbian (remember Kim?), or even Sandra just because superbitches who can't model that well make the show interesting.

I do like Allison, Celia is starting to get on my nerves, and Aminat just needs to stop talking forever. I don't understand why the judges love Teyona so much...the swimsuit picture was boring. She does have a great portfolio, but she's not exactly articulate. I'm waiting for her to epically fail on the next commercial the girls shoot. Ughhh this cycle sucks. They should have cast the weird conspiracy theorist girl from the final 32....not exactly a model, but I would have watched just for her.

I'm glad I'm not the only one who thinks Celia is starting to become annoying. I still can't put my finger on why though.

I still like Allison. She was my pick from the beginning and I'm standing behind her and her alien eyes (although they haven't been so buggy lately). I think her shyness will make the commercial difficult for her, however.

Ditto on the boring season. I say we bring back Jade.

UGH. I'm going to say it again.

Celia needs to GTFO.

ETA: FINALLY.

I don't know why so many people dislike Allison -- she's been my fav since the beginning and I'm glad to see she's still around.


SPOILER: Word is she's in the final with a "gorgeous black girl" who I'm just going to assume is Teyona. Can't wait for next week!

Ugh, I'm all confused over who I like again! I think Allison is my new favorite of who's left. I've been skeptical about whether or not she can pull off a cover girl shot, but from the previews she looked GORGEOUS!!!!

Aminat dropped for me, and I still can't stand Teyona...her hair... ughhh....

I really can't stand Teyona...I think her hair is horrendous. I'm in love with Allison though...Fo was my favorite, but Allison is a close second!
