So glad to know I was not the only person who was PISSED that Mercedes lost. Did ya'll hear me screaming in Chicago?!?!

I heard you! I am in the South Suburbs and was pissed

I mean really, I didn't think my voice could go that high,lol! They kept saying that Yoanna's walk was bad and the only thing she had going for her was her "classic" beauty. But I have no doubt that Mercedes will get a contract with some modeling agency.

Amen!

I don't think Yoanna is going to be able to take some of the pressures she may have to face. Okay, yeah, you watch CNN and Elsa Klinch, but YOU have to perform! She was about to freak out when her shoe broke and they couldn't seem to find another pair.

She didn't even "hug" Mercedes after she won!

I thought I was passed this type of thinking, but I think Mercedes was a bit too dark for some. I think it was the photographer who said that he didn't think she would be (paraphrasing) marketable all over -something like that.

We all know that women of color aren't the first picks. We're in and out of season and I think that's what happened.

Yoanna no doubt photographs well, but I think Mercedes does also and she has the personality and drive for it.

I may be wrong; I wasn't there during the entire decision making (only what they showed on television).

I think one judge had the nerved to question her health situation. What difference does that make? I'm sure all models aren't the picture of health.

I too was soooooo upset when I saw Yoanna pic on the screen. because I was routing for Mercedes the entire time; well at least after I saw that Camille wasn't the most pleasent person.

Yeah, Nigel said that. That's probably what it was. She DID THE DAYUM THING for the DSquared2 show!!!! SHE ROCKED! lol

I hope Phat Pharm, Sean John, FUBU and others pick her up (even Camille) for their shows. She (They) was/were good!

I wanted Mercedes to win from the beginning. She was so good. I would be so pissed if I were her...I'm like, how are they going to pick Yoanna's clumsy behind. Remember when she fell during the video shoot. Mercedes was the total package. She was beautiful. I'm sure somebody will pick her up.

[vanda]

I so didn't want Yoanna to win. I bet they are getting the white sheet and smelling salts for Camille somewhere. I just knew it was going to be Mercedes and shandi in the end. Oh well.


Where was J Alexander going in that Tiara??? HE looked like he was ready for the revival of the Rocky Horror picture show. I like J, but damn!

Epitome, that was YOU I heard in Chi town around 8:57? I didn't know what the hell that was!

Am I the only one who thinks Nigel is fine? I'd date him any day of the week.

That's the same attitude that I had. I was in a state of shock. Actually, I was soo surprise that Shandi got voted off. I was in a state of shock the entire time.

He is indeed a cutie patootie and I too will date him any day of the week.

You know a man is fine when it makes you so angry you start cursing everytime you look at him. Like "It makes no godd*mn sense for you to be so d*mn fine. No *** sense!"

I actually found a girl at school today who said she was happy that Yoanna won. She said Yoanna has been her favorite since the second episode. She was serious; I was shocked.

Nigel is very fine, and I would date him any day as well. Looks like he'd have a lot of women
