Nicole L. didn't have red hair, it was dark brown. I think their faces maybe have similar bone structure, but that's about it.

Poor Laura, I crack up everytime I think about her shoot:
"The last thing you wanna do is start hyperventilatin' AT THE BOTTOM OF THE OCEAN!!!"

Was very surprised to see Laura in the top two. I didn't think her picture this week was all that great, or that her body of work was that strong. Unless she completely rocks it next week, I think Nicole is the obvious winner.

It pains me to say this, because Laura is my favorite... but her picture sucked this week. Her body looked good, but her face was fug. I was astonished that she made the top two. I also found it weird how they told Nicole how amazing she was all through the shoot, and then her picture was kind of eh. I definitely saw Nicole in the two 2, but based on this week's shoot alone, I think it should have been bratty Erin with her.
HOWEVER, Laura and Nicole have been two of my favorites all season, so I'm thrilled they're in the top two. I think Nicole takes better pictures, but Laura is more of the "whole package" in terms of personality, confidence and runway, and I do think her overall body of work is impressive. And no matter what the judges say, I think her Grandma Wanda Jean outfits are adorable. Nicole, on the other hand, had a really weird outfit this judging. I thought they would call her out for sure. Her personality is also just kind of strange. She doesn't project confidence or relatability (is that a word?).
My bet is on Laura for the win.
So excited for the finale next week!

As for the other person, no clue who that is? Who is this "andre" replacing?

For sure, I can't believe someone as HUGE in the industry as Andre Leon Talley is stooping to ANTM, especially after seeing how cheese-tastic the show has gotten.
And the show will NOT be the same without Ms. J.

NOOOOOOOOO the show is gonna tank for real.
I'm happy with the final 2. Laura's body of work has been more consistent than Erin's and more impressive than Jennifer's. She's got tons more personality than Nicole. It's just that Nicole's pix are better. Uuuuuugggh I really think it'll be Nicole in the end, but I want Laura to win so badly!

Wow. I am floored by Andre L. Talley doing Top Model of all things.
Didn't see that coming.
It seems to be beneath him, you know?

Stated on 9/9, that's pretty darn good- 2/3 of your picks are in the final two! Personally I'm rooting for Nicole, they always love the awkward girls and she has a really interesting look. Laura's nice and I enjoy watching her, but I think it'll be Nicole.

I live in Seattle which has a pretty large Asian population, and many of them are absolutely stunning. I have never understood why they tend to choose some of the more strange looking Asian girls for the show. I get that they may have a slightly smaller pool to pull from (due to height or culture), but I feel like they primarily go for the cheekbones girls like Gina from C6, or Sheena or Anchal. Jennifer is more normal looking except for the eye thing, which is like setting her up for failure. Were they really going to hand it to her? Probably not. It may have made them seem "more accepting" to some, but it felt too contrived in my book. I think they could've found better Asian contestants for the show this season that would've stood a chance for winning. Don't get me wrong, Jen is fun to watch and seems genuinely nice. I just don't think she was cast/selected with the expectation of being able to make it all the way.

Yes please!! Like Tyra's themes & accents, (s)he is really getting to me. Do I really care that you can't see over your sleeves, rip names off your vest, or wear ugly ruffles? No. Stick to the show, please. I think this is a really good move on their part, so (s)he can focus on what (s)he does best- runway. I've been hoping for this change for a while- and who knows, maybe Tyra will cut some of her antics too? It'll be interesting to see the dynamics at panel next season.

Team Laura all the way.
Also, Nicole walks like a linebacker.

It's hard to say. I think both are pretty blah.
I don't know if I will watch next season.
