With the exception of Eva and Danielle, I agree. Most of the non-winners were voted off because of their wild/off personalities, but ironically, that's what has made them popular.
Was it just me, or was the fashion show kind of...off? The setup, etc just seemed very amateur. I would expect more in a place like Brazil (considering how many BEAUTIFUL models that country spits out).

yea, that's true. When they said the runway was fast... it was not as fast as a normal runway show, the make-up was not as high-fashioned as the other shows were, but I enjoyed the last part of the runway. If I was a photographer, I would have gotten numerous editorial shots from the poses they made.

So does Tyra's and she did pretty well (even back in the day before she started wearing wigs with acceptable hairlines).
I'm not elated, not disappointed. I would've been happier the other way around, but I didn't expect it. Congrats to the winner.

I think some of the fashion shows are not real fashions shows. For example, Cycle 7? (CariDee & Melrose). It seemed very staged to me. Especially that part where Miss Jay runs out and then shows up on the runway. I'm pretty sure that wouldn't happen in a real fashion show, lol

I dunno, I think Tyra just has a big forehead...And I know something about big foreheads...I'd say I have a five-head
But I dunno, to me it just looks like it starts on the top of her head. They really should have given her a better makeover. I just think the one they gave her is awful.

Was that the one with the long, cave looking hallway? That one was at least interesting. This one looked like they forgot all the props but decided to have the show anyway. The end was the only redeeming part.
Plus, we had to look at and listen to McKey's boring self again.

That's the one! In the beginning, they have a bunch of people line up along the runway holding candles. I really think they just went up to random people on the street and asked if they wanted to be in the audience lol
I think Cycle 9 (Saleisha & Chantal) was also very staged. I can't even remember seeing an audience. (I could be wrong, but I can't remember)

Knew Teyona was going to win, but LOVED Allison to the very end.

I knew before the show even started that they would go with Teyona...but it should have been Allison. Allison had a much better critique and a much better performance in both the commercial and the final runway show. Oh well, Tyra is predictable.
I'm surprised that no one mentioned that Paulina has been fired. Any guesses on who the new judge will be next season?

You know, I was going to come on and say "WORST WINNER EVER!!" until you reminded me of Tootie aka Saleisha aka OMG it's such a coincidence that you won and you've been on Tyra's TV show and who knows what else. CG is probably already counting the days till Teyona's contract is up.
This was so predictable. I wonder if they have a noncompete - Maybelline or someone should snap Allison up because her CG shoot was unbelievable.
Supposedly Paulina was fired to cut some of the fat (not literal fat, but paying her). I wouldn't be surprised if Ann Shoket is the new judge, considering her lips are perma-glued to Tyra's ass.

I'm sorry, but praising Teyanna for waving her weave around like a lunatic after she pulled it off her head during the writhing on the runway??? WTH!!!
Allison should have won, but whatever, she will be the more successful model in the long run (imo), she has an incredibly unique look and photographs beautifully. They can work with the awkward walk, although I think she did better than Teyanna in the final show...

Cycle 12 losers are already getting contracts. Allison and Fo were signed to Nous and Jessica and Natalie were both signed to Ford LA.

Oh that is good to hear. Fo was one of my favorites.

I'll admit that I didn't watch this show in it's entirety but while looking at USweekly online, I saw a pic of the girl that won. Is this just a bad pic or is this really the winner?!?!?!
