ANTM-Cycle 11

[ZTABullwinkle]

What was up with all the compliments from the judges for Isis. They said nothing bad about her?!? Are we in for another "predetermined" winner?

Seriously. Everyone else they love to criticize for how they look at panel, why not shim?

Maybe to throw us off? There's no way he'll win. Can you imagine him trying to book a job with CoverGirl? Or changing backstage at a couture fashion show? The judges are smart. I bet they've thought of all of this. I hate to say it, but I bet Isis is like a "token" of furthered diversity in the competition. My prediction is Sheena. They've never had an Asian winner before so I'm thinking, with as much as Tyra loves her Kimora resemblance, it'll be her.

[a.e.B.O.T.]

I dont see why there is a problem? Modeling is about appearances... if she doesn't appear to be a man, then she will work for couture and Covergirl.

People nitpicked over Saleisha and whether her commercials violated contract terms, yet someone with a penis is in a female competition and everyone jumps on the bandwagon. That's not fair by any stretch of the imagination. However, I'm not okay with all the hater comments from those girls. That was cruel. I mean really, put your big girl pants on and grow up. It was the set of a professional photo shoot, not Mean Girls.

I know that all the models have been female, but does it say in the contract that the contestants have to be female? Males are models as well.

Ok seriously, what exactly is wrong with Marjorie? My cousin and I just looked at each other like

[a.e.B.O.T.]

I liked Marjorie, because its day one, and she is already working with herself to truly become ANTM. It is clear she is trying right off the bat without being over confident (clearly) or just there to party and meet Tyra. She wants it but does not act like she already has it. It is refreshing

[christiangirl]

^^^I feel some kinda way about Marjorie. She doesn't have the self-confidence that I'd like her to have, but I do like her. Highlight to see the semi-spoiler: I saw a spoiler site posted by a girl in Amsterdam (where they go abroad). This girl says she saw the top 5 being photographed and Isis, Marjorie, Sheena, McKey and an unidentifiable 5th girl were there). I don't know how much stock to put in that, but I do like Marjorie and Sheena a lot so I hope it's true!

7. You must be female and 18 to 27 years of age at the time of application.

I was really upset when Saleisha caught all that flack and she had done nothing wrong (I really liked her and rooted for her all the way). I think that if all that hullabuloo hadn't happened, I wouldn't care so much.

Ahhh good to know. I guess to ANTM "female" is a loose term.

I'm surprised they have the "to 27" part, especially knowing that anyone older than 21 is considered "old." That is just setting up those girls for heartbreak when they are told they are too old to be a model.

I think ANTM recruited her (Isis), and I am sure they will say: define Female... Listen, she walks like a female, talks like a female, in pictures, she comes off as female. Saleisha shouldn't of got all that flack, but it was from the other models, who are catty and in it to win it. Isis will get the same if not more flack. Its sad, but the nature of human's in competition.

Oh, she got flack on a national level, too. It was on talk shows, wiki, even youtube users dedicating their channels to "Scandaleisha" or whatnot. I hope she hasn't seen/heard half of what's been said because the haters are abundant. Though, I don't doubt Isis will get more...definitely more. I find it hard to muster the same sympathy as he shouldn't even be there...however, hearing what all those hateful girls said in the house and at the shoot did make me angry and very sad for Isis. That was certainly uncalled for.

OK, I guess people didn't get when I said "rooting for the tranny" I was joking. It would just point out how silly and scripted the competition has become if she DID win.

Isis is a pre-op, right?
I don't have anything against people who have undergone sexual reassignment surgery, but I would think that in order to be considered "female", she'd have to be post-op.

I never really watch ANTM, but I will until Lauren gets eliminated.

[ajuhdg]

I really liked Sheena too. She's got her work cut out for her...can you see her doing the commericial? YIKES! I think Analeigh and Elina are beautiful. HATE Marjorie.

In other news, did anyone elses heart flutter when Nigel jumped out of the box? That man looks finer every cycle.
