Here's the new batch...didn't see it here already. Apologize if it has!

Pretty 'ho-hum' to me. Fo is different than the usual group. Jessica's pic makes me think of Meghan Fox. Teyona is cool eyes. I like Tahlia tho, she looks interesting.

OH, and Sao Paulo, Brazil is the international location.

All the girls look really old, IMO...definitely not as pretty as previous contestants. I hope the makeovers are interesting.

Anyone know when the season starts?

Me too! She reminds me of Nazri, Michael Knight's model from Project Runway. I loved her.

I agree - I don't really get a good feeling from any of them.

And the show starts in about three weeks - Feb 25th!

The girls are pretty meh this year.

It's okay, though. I just watch for Nigel anyway.

Here's my take on them. (Cause I know you care...)
Oh Tyra, you're so full of yourself.
Allison - awkward
Celia - I think her jaw just makes her face look odd.
Isabella - looks like she's trying too hard to be angsty
Fo - She's pretty, but who does she remind me of?
Kortnie - Stop the eyebrow thing! Can't wait to see what they do to her hair.
Jessica - A little different looking without being icky, but could go either way when you see her in action
Tahlia - Her smile and chin positioning look uncomfortable. Probably won't photograph well
Nijah - pretty but looks like a bitch. Hey, some people have bitchy faces though! (One of my friends does, and she's not a bitch!)
Teyona - her head doesn't look proportionate with the rest of her body
Natalie - meh
London - I have a feeling she's gonna be awkward on the show
Sandra - Ooh, like her but I can already predict what they're gonna do with her hair...
Aminat - Omg Tyra, get out of my head: Fierce!

Just based on pictures, but I think Kortnie and Celia are gonna be dubbed "plus size."

Ha! They're completely normal-sized...but yeah, I know what you mean.

Ahh, Top Model.
The show that I want to stop, yet still watch every cycle.
Really, how many of these could you do?

None of them really look exciting but maybe the makeovers will help.

I'm rooting on Tahlia since she is from Phoenix.

I agree, but I feel that sometimes the makeovers make the girl look worse!!

I mean, none of the winners have had stellar international modelling careers like Cindy Crawford, Elle McPherson, Gisele Bundgsen(?sp) and Kate Moss.

That's true, but I feel like those gals are a rare occurance anyway. As in, there are only a few of them in the world, so I'm not surprised none of the winners have reached that level of fame. I will say that there have been a few that, from what I can tell, seem to be fairly successful - Eva, Naima, and Dani come to mind.

You're right. I guess it's just that every week Tyra makes it seem like being "her" top model is the "be all - end all" thing a girl can do. Quite frankly many of the models on her show are 'ho-hum', really not that spectacular.

Allison is insane in the previews -- talking about how she likes nosebleeds and all.

Kappamd · #15 03-04-2009, 09:10 PM

On right now apparently. Somebody just called and reminded me.
