ANTM - Cycle 11

[sorcerormickey]

Does anyone else love Mr. Jay? He is gorgeous!!

I think he is one of the prettiest men I have ever seen - sooo cute!! I would kill to have his skin color!

Ok, who watched last night?

I was happy with who went home because I wanted her gone a few weeks ago but I really think the other one in the bottom 2 should've been sent home.

 

[MineeBaby]

I am happy that she went home too! I thought she was very pretty, especially after the make over, but her attitude was really obnoxious. Can't wait to see what happens next week!

 

[Rora]

Who went home? I won't get a chance to watch this week.

Feel free to PM me!

Spoiler









I think Elina is beautiful, but I was finally ready for her to go. It doesn't seem like she was trying. Plus, I think it stunned all of us that she's only 18. She looks so much older-by the time she's 25 she'll look 35, which is usually not a great thing for a model.

I also liked that she didn't get booked because of her tatoos. Maybe it will make some young girls who are watching realize that getting tatoos could have some consequences in the future.

I wish Sam would stop taking terrific pictures because I really don't like her.

 

[Rora]

Thanks for the spoiler!! I have to admit I'm glad for that person to be gone too. Can't wait to watch the episode, whenever I get around to it.

 

[sorcerormickey]

I CANNOT get over the fact that Elina is only 18!!! She looks more like 35!

 

[Stacerita]

I haven't seen it yet, but I am bummed that Elina went home. I liked her. She was different. I can't believe that she is only 18 though. She does seem a bit older. I really wish Sam would go. She bugs the crud out of me.

 

[genius118899]

Ugh, I can't stand Sam! I need her to leave!

 

[SkcMom]

Ditto to that! She bugs the crap out of me!!

 

[storzo]

I'm going to jump on the "Sam go home" bandwagon. I don't know what it is about her but she just grates on me. She talks and talks and says nothing.

I couldn't believe Elina was only 18 either. Could she be lying to have a better chance in the business? I mean, Tyra acted shocked and as host, judge and producer wouldn't she know the ages of the contestants?

I think if Margorie couldn't handle the go-sees then she needs to go home. She does take good pictures but what good is that if she can't handle an "interview" so to say. I don't think her walk is that good either. If she makes it to the final 3 I think the commercial will be the end of her.

That leaves AnnaLeigh and McKey. I have to say the same about McKey that I say about Sam. Something about her just gets to me. Most of the time I forget she's even there. So by process of elimination, I'm rooting for AnnLeigh which based on my record will be her kiss of death. LOL

All in all, I have to say again that this season was just a big bust. From the space age thingy at tryouts to the bad fairy tale at makeovers to the contestants to it all. I hope the next cycle goes back to way it was.

Marjorie is getting on my last nerve. She is such a twitching bundle of nerves it makes me feel anxious watching her on the tv -- I can't imagine what she's like in real life. I think I'd want to slap her or shake her and tell her to "BE STILL and stop jabbering and whining." Who wants to hire that? Who wants to be around that? I'd NEVER hire her -- I'd be afraid she'd fall apart on a shoot or on the runway. And I'd be afraid she'd bring the whole team down with her anxiety and that freaking twitching she does. She needs to toughen up and try again.

And what is up with the naked bathtub confessionals with Marjorie and Analeigh? This isn't the first time they've been in a tub together. And who does that, anyway? In all my years, I've never once known any friends who get naked in tubs together. Finally, for someone who is so self-conscious, Marjorie sure has no problem being filmed naked and wet.

 

[missypie]

I disagree with a lot of the reasons girls get cut - for example, they have one bad photo shoot when all the prior photo shoots have been fantastic. But I do agree that if someone can't handle go sees, they should be cut. As Tyra and others have said, modeling is a lonely profession. You're in a city, often in a foreign country, and you have to manage to get where you need to be, on time, and looking good. You have to be able to make people want to hire you.

It seems like after so many cycles, girls trying to be on ANTM would practice basic map reading skills. And the Dutch street names were not all that long or undecipherable. Think of poor Heather in China!

You must be a mind reader! LOL We were just talking about this at work.

Having spent lots of time in Amsterdam, it is really, really confusing to get around. All the names are really long with no vowels and the street signs are in random places. The streets are not in a grid but a circular pattern around squares. I used to look at my map and count the number of canals I needed to cross and then turn. So my direction were like 3 canals right, 8 canals, left, etc. It was very hard and I had little pressure.

Anyway, I think McKey is gorgeous but no personality. But on looks alone, she should win. I also don't like Sam. She has no chin.

 

[Todd&Copper]

I think Marj shoudl have been booted b/c she did not book any clients and that is the whole point of the go-see exercise - can these girls book clients?

IF Elina's tattoos are such a big deal, then she should not have been chosen for the competition in the first place. Just like when they pick a short girl, a heavier (but not plussie) girl, or an older girl and then dump her for being too short/fat/old. Why did you bother selecting that one in the first place????

Also, no Whitney commercial? I guess she's done it all - ride a bike, sightsee with mom, eat cupcakes, fake catalog photoshoot. Yep, all done - NAXT!

Sam is annoying. McKey is blah. Marjorie is too nervous. I love AnnaLeigh and have since almost the very beginning. In a early episode, Isis wanted someone to distract her while she gave herself a hormone injection. AnnaLeigh was right there to help. She seems to have a positive attitude and tries to bring others up. She is a beautiful person inside and out.

The baths don't faze me at all. I think it's a European thing. In some countries there are communal baths for men or women. You meet at the baths and talk while you relax. Although this American found it strange when she first went to a bath in Budapest and saw all these naked women. After being in the water for a few minutes, it was nothing. You forgot you were naked. That would never fly here in America though.

I agree. Analeigh's attitude has reminded me of Anya's from last cycle. They've both been very, very positive and mostly stayed out of the drama.

 

[missypie]

I also think Sam is a very intolerant person. I think she's not comfortable with people who are different from her. I don't think she'd do well surrounded by models, photographers and designers of all different nationalities.

I totally agree!!!
