Three models compete and one is sent home, then the final two go head-to-head in a magazine cover shoot and the ultimate catwalk.

Congratulations ANTM. You have the winner you deserve.

Oh, and they totally sent Jenah "home" third just to make Tootie's win look less bogus. Not that it helped.

Oh my God, Chantal! You're so stiff in your teeny tiny bondage dresses! Why can't you take big steps like Saleisha does in her big, floaty dresses?

I fought so hard for this.


Oh yeah, because every single week the judges gave her a hard time and nitpicked at her and never cut her any slack and were on her ass 24/7....

wait, what?

"Jenah, you've taken pictures better than professional models. You have an amazing career ahead of you. And that’s why we decided to give you the boot and keep Tootie and the girl in the clown sized overalls."

Ummm... yeah. Tyra is just one big bundle of common sense. But as soon as I saw Chantal was in the final two I knew it was going to Tootie.

Fashion show = L.A.M.E. Why did Tyra even bother having the girls walk? We all know all she cared about was when she got her chance to go down the runway and have everyone fawn over her like she was empress of China or something. And what the heck was up with her eyebrows? It was like she was channeling David Bowie's Jareth from the movie Labyrinth.

And I love how Tyra keeps pretending like she hadn't signed Saleisha's Covergirl contract on day one or something.

I wish I had known earlier that Jenah was from Connecticut because I think that explains her attitude. I lived in Rhode Island when I was younger and I remember that I thought the people there were really rude. It was later that I realized that east coasters aren’t rude; they just tend to be stand-offish, which is what I think threw the judges. They don't understand anything but bubbly and perky.

Did anyone else think Saliesha’s face looked odd in the commercial? I think it had to do with her hair being completely tucked behind her ear.

No real surprise that Saleisha won, but it still sucks.

Tyra sucks. "It's all about me! I have to say who wins! You just sit there! It's all about me!"

Tootie Carparts? Seriously? She sucks and is below average looks wise.

I'm never buying another Cover Girl product ever again. I'd say I'm never going to watch this show again, but I know I will. And I know Tyra will pick someone even worse than Saleisha.

Her pictures at the end were just blah. What was up with her eyes in the one with Tyra?

Wasn't the spoiler that it was Jenah and Saleisha in the final two? Or am I remembering wrong? Anyway, I was really hoping when Chantal was called first that the spoiler about Saleisha winning was false and one of the other girls would win. Alas, that did not come true.

Horrible episode/cycle/show.

What the hell is this bullshit at the end with pictures from Tyra's wallet of Saleisha? Trying to save face, are we?

Fuck You, Tyra.

I KNEW that there was no way in hell they could let Jenah in the final two with Saleisha and pretend that Saleisha was better, especially when it came to the pictures. (which still doesn’t explain why they could do it in top 3 but whatever).

Hee, they skipped the flower shot, which was kind of horrid for both of them. I still hate Saleisha’s picture on the wall. I don’t get it, at all. And as someone mentioned, she doesn’t have the sword unsheathed and they totally photoshopped her to make her jump higher. Also, we saw, what? 3 pictures. Is that the least amount of pictures we’ve ever looked at at final judging.

Yawn, yawn, yawn. Enjoy your quick fade into obscurity, Tootie!

"Jenah, you've had eleven takes. We have to go to cue cards. Now!"

"Saleisha, you go ahead and rest, honey. You're beautiful. You can get it out, we know you can." Twenty takes without a comment? BULL. SHIT.

My fave from the beginning (even with the Tootie hair...) so I am thrilled. And she must have had the most honestly ecstatic response to winning I have seen.

ETA: Btw, I am going to hell in a hand basket because when the guy on stilts got tangled in Chantal's dress and went down, I totally laughed... *hangs head in shame*

I love how they didn't show any of the times Chantal kicked Selisha's ass in photos...

Also...Nigel? The reason Selisha is a better model....she has been doing it for YEARS, might want to mention that she's had a national campaign and all.

Final Thought: Did anyone else think Selisha's walk was way too hip hop for the supposedly high fashion runways that they want these girls to walk? I actually thought Chantal's was better. Whatever.

Uhhh. Tyra looked nice with her hair pulled back. Chantal was sabotaged. Jenah (and Lisa, Heather, Bianca, Kimberly, Ebony, Victoria, Sarah, Janet and Ambreal) was riz-obbed. I hate this show now.

Great news, Naima! You're not the worst winner anymore.


Heh. Naima would kick the-winner-who-shall-not-be-named-and-her-name-is-too-annoying-to-spell-out-anyway's ASS, any day of the freakin' week.

So our former informant was right: Tootie wins it all. (sing-songy voice) "It's a scam, it's a scam, it's a scam..."

They really broke Jenah down, didn't they? Why the hell did Tyra say that Jenah felt resentment towards her mother? Way to put words in her mouth, Tyra.

Saleisha: "I don't want anyone taking my dream from me!" Just reminded me of Elyse's quote of no one having the god-given right to win a modeling competition.

Why didn't I remember that foreshadowing of Saleisha telling Chantal at the beginning of this season that they'd be the last two standng? I knew that scene happened, but made nothing of it originally.

Jenah, go pursue a real modeling career while Tootie hawks CG Smoothers at Wal-Mart.

I hate this winner. I think she is the worst yet. Anyone would have been a better winner this year than Tootie Carparts.

Big mistake. They had no idea how seriously people were going to dislike Tootie Carparts and how obvious it would be to everyone that the fix was in. I believe the revulsion against this set up, fake conclusion is going to turn a lot of people off this show permanently. It was too repulsive to watch, even as camp.
