Don't let me start that.

I feel that Robin was being very diva-like during the whole competition, though I don't blame her for looking crazy at the food. I can't eat just anything and that mess looked gross. It was SNAILS, for God's sake!! I would have gagged. RD doesn't eat strange things.

Ehhhnt! It was her tude... period

Lots of French men love black women, that is why our looks ("ethnic") tend to do better over there than in the US.

I agree! I am, however, currently rocking a 16 to 18 and I HATE IT!! *hiding my face* That's exactly why I am doing something about it. I am trying to lose the weight so that I can be happy. I know that I would be cool saying that I wear a 14, but beyond that, I'm too ashamed. I think that Robin is a nice size and I don't think that she should feel bad. Hey, I'm trying to get to 170 and she is trying to lie about her weight. Just the fact that she was selected is inspiration enough! I congratulate Robin on making it as far as she did. God knows that Janice was against her on all levels. I know that I may always be considered a "big girl" regardless of what size I get down to. But that's cool with me because as long as I like it, everyone else should love it!

Don't be ashamed!!! As long as you're working on it...that's all that matters. God made thick women...I'm HELLA thick too! Ask LadyGreek!!! She'll tell ya. I'm working on my weight as well so we can do it together!

Moreover, I think Robin was a beautiful young lady. Her attitude was ugly though. And I still don't think she's a size six. Having a size six waist doesn't make you a size six. If she has to get a size ten in the slacks/skirt/suit/ etc., that makes her a size ten, not a size six. I'm much smaller in my waist too, but when I shop, I have to go up sizes because of the hips and thighs.

MY POINT: YOU CAN BE A PLUS SIZE WITH A SIZE 6 WAIST. Don't hate these people because their weight goes to all the right places.

But why didn't Robin win the Etiquette competition? What's that about? That's why I said she didn't want to win. She could have kept her clothes on, won that portion, and been on her way. Tyra looked like she wanted to cry when she said goodbye to Robin. Didn't Robin say something about the guys and their interests? I don't want to miss quote her but I was under the impression that she was second-guessing their intentions. Perhaps she forgot that they were JUDGES!

Yeah, what you said. I'm a plus size with a size 12 waist. Jeans are virtually impossible for me, unless I want to spend $70 on custom Levi's. Frankly, I'm glad it goes below my waist, because I'm less likely to have heart disease, etc.

I still think it will be Adrienne. I hope they do an update on all the models that were kicked off.

Tonight is a 2 hour special. The first hour will feature stuff such as unseen fights and unseen confessionals. The second hour will be like the regular show.

I understand how Robin felt about being at the dinner (I use to work in public accounting and it was assumed that you ate lunch and dinner with your coworkers). There was no way that she was going to win that mini competition. The odds were stacked against her but her attitude didn't help.

I hate to say it and I hope it isn't true, but I heard the 12 year old boy was on a talk show and mistakenly revealed that she won. And I thought she was supposed to be the smart one...
