Loving 'America's Next Top Model'

Jerri, Humble, Texas — Wed, 12 Nov 2008 15:03:42 GMT

I was turned off a long time ago when Tyra chose to keep a girl that had the ugliest and meanest nature that I've seen in a long time! I forget the girls name, but I remember that she said "God doesn't like ugly" and wondered why she was referring to the other girl instead of herself. I think Tyra is in a position to improve things in the modeling world, but chooses not too. I also think she could do a little more "good" with her talk show as well.

This show is too much about Tyra and not enough about the models. It's always drama, drama, drama. No matter what good the models do, Tyra always finds something to yap at them about. I get sick of watching that diva since she always makes everything about her. I thought it was "America's Next Top Model", not "The Tyra Banks Narcissism Show."

I admit it, I love ANTM! I did not start with Cycle 1 but have caught up on all the cycles via re-runs on VH1. The fact that the show does not "switch it up" does not bother me at all. It is still new and exciting each cycle. I enjoy the journey to see all these girls come into their own personal style and beauty - or not (like Marjorie this cycle - will she ever "get" how fantastic a model she could be?). I am also rooting for Analeigh, she is just exquisite and seems like a nice young woman. I loved Whitney! She still hams it up in her Cover Girl commercials, but it suits the product well, I think.

I too am addicted to ANTM and have watched every cycle. I don't understand their fascination with Marjorie. Everything about her annoys me. How can someone go through life afraid of everything and then blame it on being European?! I have many friends from various countries in Europe and NONE of them are like that. Marjorie is a freak!

I personally would love to see Analeigh win. I think she is by far the prettiest girl on the show, not to mention I agree she is also the most likable. I can't believe they keep Marjorie over and over again. She has the worst self-esteem of any person I have ever encountered on television, and it just gets too obnoxious.

I agree with what you have said. I can’t help but get the feeling that the final choice for Top Model is heavily swayed by Covergirl’s demographics (Jaslene and Whitney). I think that Analeigh has all of the right elements to be a top model. Even if she doesn’t win, she will still be a great model.

I have watched every ANTM since cycle 1, and I've predicted the winner of each. There's a theme here people. White, white, black, black, white, black, blonde, latino, plus-size, and finally the a red-head 'foreigner' (Marjorie. Or though I thought for sure they would go with the trans-sexual this year and stir things up a bit. Either way...LOVE IT!

This is a TV show you all! If there were no drama-nobody would watch it! Ofcourse it is all about Tyra! Tyra is the show! Thank God for that-have you ever tried to watch Britain's Next Top Model, or Australia's or Canada's Next Top Model?! They are so, so dull in comparison. I can only say-Thank you Tyra for your ego and amazing production!
Why do people have a problem with Whitney? The best looking girl they had for a long time! Cartagenia? Carta-who? Annya? You must be joking! These girls cannot speak English properly-how can an American girl relate to them? If you were Covergirl would you want them to be your ambassador? Do we need more Eastern European girls on the catwalk? More size zero coathangers with square faces, sunken cheeks and bulging eyes and transparent skin!? Enough already!
Love you Tyra and love you Whitney.

It's my guilty pleasure too as I generally don't like reality tv. My sister got me hooked only a few cycles ago. I think McKey will win, but that Analeigh should. She's far prettier and has a healthier-looking body. She's very cute and very all-American. I think she'll find an agency to take her even if she doesn't win. I don't care if Tyra is a bit diva. It makes for good entertainment. Shout out for Benny Ninja too...he's awesome! Special kudos to the girls with disabilities who stand up and show us that you can achieve in spite of extra challenges.

This is one of my guilty pleasure shows too. I haven't been watching this season (and I'm one of the last schmucks in America without Tivo I guess), but I've really enjoyed the other cycles. I'm not sure what it is about this show that draws me back because Tyra works on my nerves and the ever present mean-girl in the house usually makes me grind my teeth...but I still tune in.
I'll have to get caught up on this season I guess.

I love watching ANTM! At the beginning of this season I was a little worried though, with the futuristic crap they had going on and all, pretty silly if you ask me... Anyway, from the get-go, I liked Elina. I thought she was extremely beautiful but as time went by she just seemed like she didn't get it. I def think Analeigh should be the winner of this season. And Samantha, please Tyra, send her home. I still can't figure out if she is a plus size model or not. With her neck/chin it's kind of hard to tell. And kudos to whoever said McKee looked like McCauley Culkin... What was up with her poser "MMA" crap at the beginning of the season? She looked ridiculous!

I also love the show and have watched faithfully since Cycle 2. I love Analeigh and McKey and look forward to them going head to head on the final catwalk. I would also love for Tyra to do an all Male show. How awesome would that be to watch half naked good looking men walk around for an hour each week. There was another show on last year that had men and women competing against each other and living in the same house, and it was fun to watch.

Hi, my name is Elle and I'm an ANTM addict. My boyfriend and I stared watching got hooked on it during the cycle with Eva. Now every time there's a marathon I'm glued even though I know exactly what's going to happen.

For this cycle, I have to say, I can't stand Paulina as a judge - yucko! And the girls are a little boring in general, but I love Analeigh. I'd be OK with McKey winning...she takes beautiful pics but she's got zero personality. As long as it's not Marjorie - what a basketcase that chick is!

Huge Whitney fan! She is just beautiful and finally a model with a great personality. She is just yummy. I was so surprised when they actually picked her because I thought it was all about the gaunt stick women but Tyra impressed me on that cycle. Analeigh is definately tops for me and McKey is too old school stick-women modelly for me. Have to admit that these girls take great photos (except for McKey... really doesn't work for me). Marjorie is a true Jekyll and Hyde. Good stuff. Love it.

I love watching ANTM. Maybe it's not saving the world but it's a little break from reality for me.

Jaslene wasn't my favorite in her cycle BUT she is a great model and is one of the most in demand of all the ANTM models. She also is a really good person and it's nice to see people like that rewarded.

I agree with someone above about Chantal as I thought Melrose deserved the win. And from what I've heard she is quite the diva and is not a favorite of designers.

I loved that Whitney got the win last season and think she really does well as a Cover Girl spokeswoman.

I love it when I'm watching shows like Project Runway and people from ANTM appear. If you saw the runway shows from this year you saw people like Danielle and Bianca.

My GP too. Wish they would show more of the earlier cycles on VH1 - seems like I've never caught all of 2-3-4. I like seeing the different photo shoots - loved when they did the animals. As for this cycle - can't stand Marjorie... I don't like her or her pictures - I keep thinking she will be out of there but they like her - ugh. Analeigh has taken some great shots.

I was bummed when Elana went home last week, so now I too am rooting for Analeigh. I'm kind of annoyed this season they editing seems to be leaving things out until the middle of the show. All of a sudden we find out that Elana is foreign. And now McKey has an accent. Where did this stuff come from?

Love, love, LOVE "Top Model"! The formula that you describe - drama, tears during the makeovers, etc. - is what keeps me watching. After 11 cycles, it never gets old. I also love Tyra because she's so completely self-centered and oblivious to irony. She makes the show. My only complaint is that she doesn't seem as involved with the show as she was in earlier cycles.

I'm disappointed to see Elina go. I don't understand why everyone on the panel except for Paulina seemed to dislike her. Totally agree with an earlier poster who said that McKey takes amazing photos but looks like Macauley Culkin. And I loathe Samantha.

I love "Top Model," and find that the entertainment value is like no other. (Only those that watch it know exactly what I mean...)

Somehow I've never quite clicked with this cycle, although I've watched it and hope that Annaleigh wins. There's something about it that lacked personality-kind of like a cup of coffee without sugar...

I thought that Whitney was a good choice.

The one winner I didn't like was Saleisha. I thought Chantal was the better model.

Maybe next cycle will have more pizzazz!

Marjorie is sooooo awkward and annoying that I just want to smack her and tell her to grow a pair!! Elina is so stoic and cold that she's the opposite of likable. I don't know if I'm truly rooting for anyone that's left this season anymore ever since they eliminated my girl Sheena.

I loved Whitney and Caridee, but I do hate how they tend to eliminate the pretty girls b/c they're not "edgy" enough (i.e. Brooke from cycle 7 and Katarzyna from cycle 10).

Analeigh is adorbale! And has so much more personality than the other girls. I'm addicted to ANTM though I agree that Tyra is a complete narcissist and always refers to herself and her modeling days, even when it's not necessary to bring up.
Mckey looks like a man, and not an attractive one. She bothers me the most.

ANTM is also a GP for me. Correction 1: Chantal didn't beat out Melrose, Carriedee did. Correction 2: Chantal didn't win, Shalesha did. Has anyone picked up that the majority of the time, the first one Tyra addresses of the bottom two is the one to leave? Not 100% of the time, but the majority of the time. McKey or Analeigh, don't care. Analeigh with a slight edge, however we've already had cutsie with Nicole, so I predict McKey.

I love ANTM I watch it weekly, I don't always agree with Tyra and her panel but for the most part, I think they know what they are doing. Some of the women that are picked puzzles me and then they keep some of the women too long when you know they should have been gone. Elina was beautiful but too much attitude and baggage. So now I am pulling for two of my favorite ones left. A McKey or Analeigh win is what I'm pulling for. Marjorie has something...her photo are awesome... but she is weird and what I call a product of being home school....she doesn't know anything about socializing. She's a basket case.

I don't understand why no one likes Samantha! I think she's a crack up and she takes great photos as well. Analeigh is great, but she's too sticky sweet. I think Sam is more real. Marjorie is probably the next to go since she lacks social skills, but I love her photos.

Yes, I am an ANTM addict.

I am not in love with the series as I once was, but I have an addiction to it. My personal issues began when T. Banks realized that this show would never be cancelled(I'm thinking between cycles 3-5)and for the most part, while I watch week after week, I started to realize these poor girls are now cursed with the ANTM brand. Other issues that I have are theCoverGirl contract portion of the season (if you can't appeal to 10-12 yo girls, you might as well not apply to the show) and the more recent final runways(every REAL runway show has a reality show's complete set of judges walk down it first).

I think McKey + Analeigh will be final two, which surprised me a bit in retrospect. I love Marjorie but I think her GC commercial would not be good enough. Sam, hopes she goes next.

I have been watching ANTM since its started as well. I love the show. I really hope the Analeigh wins.I think she is so cute ans so real. I think she has grown so much since being on the show. I think this show has done alot to help boost up young womens self esteem and confidence. I think this show aslo has shown the world that beauty comes in all shaped and colors. If I was young enough I would go on it myself. I they would take. Every Friday here at my job we have an ANTM model walk to see who can stut thier stuff the best. I will be watching this show until they take it off the air.

This show has really gone off the deep end. While I'm addicted and can't stop watching it sometimes I wonder what is the point? You think someone is going to win and then they get eliminated for the most bizarre reasons. While I don't understand how Whitney won last season (she really isn't plus size - come on!) I have a feeling that this season has been geared toward McKey. Have they even said anything negative about her? I miss the days when you got to know the contestants a bit better and Tyra didn't talk about herself constantly. What ever happened to the panel judging tests? I miss those too.

Amy Stallings, Charlotte, NC — Thu, 13 Nov 2008 16:14:58 GMT

I like Analeigh. Red flags with McKey - first commercial showed she was not a good speaker, she lost track of time on her go-sees, and she and her boyfriend are in the MMA - which is controversial right now (maybe not what Seventeen mag would be interested in?) I think I once heard Tyra say the go-sees are huge to her for the obvious reasons and she can gauge how the models "meet and greet" as that's a great deal of their job as ANTM - being on time, enthusiastic, able to work with anyone with complaint. I do remember Nigel once said the last episode Cover Girl photo seals the deal for him so I can't wait to see which one delivers that.

Neither Analeigh or McKey have major "issues" and I like that. The girl that used to cut my hair said that she stopped watching because "Tyra picks the girl/issue and works backward from there!"

I think Whitney was the best model chosen so far on this program. She has demostrated time and time again that plus size women are beautiful and should be taken seriously in the model world. Analeigh should win the competition due to her wonderful personality and looks, but she wasn't my first choice. Elina should not have been eliminated due to her coldness. She was a beauty and a true person. Marjorie should have gone before her. She is a bag of nerves and I am glad she is no longer competiting. Let the show begin!!
