okay, Jade was a little weird it was totes random when she was elimenated. Joanie, i think you are leaning towards Caridee cuz she is just like you. As for melrose, she is not antm yet. So she needs to stop being mean to the other girls and then putting on a fake face. It’s like a famous model just putting it on for the cameras. And she needs to face the music, she’s not a famous model.

Joanie, you were my favorite ATM EVER!! Everyone stop giving Joanie crap for calling Melrose an evil prude– She’s writing her commentary and she has a right to her opinion.

That being said, Melrose is my favorite BY FAR. She works the hardest, takes the best pictures, and is the best model. She is right when she says she’s not there to make friends– She’s there to win.

I predict: CariDee and Melrose in the Top 2 with Melrose as the winner.

WHY oh WHY is Eugenia in the top 3? Don’t get it.

I think that the top four is very appropriate i think that melrose evan tho shes not nice and very fake she knows what to do when and how to act in front of the judges, Caridee is very spunky and they like her personality along with the fact that she didnt show the cold in her face last show, Eugena has worked so hard that she realy deserves to be here. I was glad to see that the twins were gone i think that once one was gone than the other lost alot of her motivation. I think that for them the show let them be more of their own self or atleast that is what they said.

Joanie…
You are my favourite ANTM contestant, however, me, like most people, am dissapointed by the comment you made about Melrose :(
It’s hard to judge people simply by the way they are portrayed on a TV show…
:( Sorry Joanie

Caridee has the star quality to become America’s Next Top Model. She has the personality, the intelligence, the wit, the versatility and the drive. Yes she porbably does have ADHD, and that will need the be reigned in a bit, but that’s where her creativity also comes from. GO CARIDEE!!!!! WIN IT!

I think the other girls are meaner than Melrose for saying such awful things behind her back. Like when Caridee said she would puke if Melrose won, that is something a 5 year old would say.
I personally love Melrose and hope she wins.

I guess I am in the minority…because I think Melrose is unattractive and I don’t like her pictures. I think Caridee is much prettier.

I hope they don’t have Eugena in the final two because that girls nine lives are looong gone.

Actually now that I think about all the contestants this season….they all kind of irked me in one way or the other. I think the one that I liked the most was Brooke. It was sad to see her go…but the comment about missing her graduation….whatever!

i would love for Caridee to win, I personally think she is the onw working hardest for this ti seems liek if she really wants it and she has teh looks and the personality, as for eugena if she wins im gonna be happy not as happy if caridee wins but you know.
I do not want melrose to win she totally fake she is pretty and that but to be a model you have to have the personality she back stabs everyone she comes in contact with!!

If melrose wins, what a dissapointment!!
lets go CARIDEE and Eugena…..!!!:)

España es lo mejor, yo creo que en España la mejor persona tiene que ganar y yo digo que la ganadora es Caridee!!

caridee is the girl i am voting for. she has some issues but she is my favorite.

melrose is my least fav. i would have liked her to go home a long time ago…. she is too FAKE and needs to be a little less MEAN. she takes good pictures but she tries way TOO hard to be nice to the judges, which can get irritating fast.

I agree about Melrose she has worked very hard to do as well as she has, Caridee and Eugena are just jealous because they know how good she is. She does make some small effort to show affection.(I’m referring to her hugging Caridee 2 eposodes ago because Caridee thought they were going to boot her off because of her perverse mouth towards Nigel) I would have been fired for saying something like that, but she was given a second chance. I think Caridee and Eugeena should be scared, because I think Melrose will win and I’m ruiting for her.

Eugenia is the most elegant and has the best walk- but she’s just so unreliable- some pics are great, and in some she’s totally off.

Caridee- many have said this before, she looks stale. We’ve seen that whole look before and she doesn’t look editorial. Plus, a bubbly personality is good and all, but she’s really over the top at times.

Melrose- the girl needs to learn some humility, and seems to have major issues (she cried after losing the flamenco competition, when she’s won almost all the others?? isn’t that being a little too hard on yourself?) STILL, she takes the best pics, works the hardest and wants it BUT of the remaining three she’s the shortest and also least photo-genic. She looks odd.

Bye-bye Amanda- she had the look for a model, but was totally off in terms of co-ordination. It’s too bad Michelle sacrificed herself for Amanda- she definitely could have won.

This season, I don’t have a clear favorite. Each girl has something going for her, and minus points. All 3 lack charm and the it factor.

For final 2, I predict Melrose-Eugenia.

Melrose is so fake…

Remember last week when she won the competition and got to pick a friend to join her for a personal gourmet dinner? She picked Caridee, and not Eugenia. And then this week Melrose is saying out of all the girls, Caridee is her least favorite and the most vulgar.

If acting one way towards someone and then turning your back and talking trash about them behind closed doors is not fake, then I dont know what is.

Lets not forget guys that a top model must be talented, like Melrose, but most have an appeal to the masses, which she DOES NOT.

I am not going to watch it next Wed, I think Amanda should still be there and was the best out of the four; I still think Eugena should have went.

This season is very upsetting!!!

I have a love-hate relationship with Melrose. I know you have to have a tough skin when you’re a model, but I think Melrose’s skin is just way too tough. In almost EVERY episode she says something to the effect “i’m better off being alone” or “I don’t care if I make any friends”…but you know she really cares. She’s insanely competitive. She has to be the best. Although that’s a good quality for a model, it’s not a good quality as far as getting along with other people.

In this competition she’s got almost all positive comments. Even her negative comments are wrapped in positive ones. It’d be interesting to see if she has a meltdown in the real world of fashion, when they critique her nonstop.

Also, her overly competitive personality makes me wonder if she really wants to win America’s Next Top Model or if she just really wants to win.

I’m rooting for Caridee all the way!

Melrose is so fake all the time! I dont know how anyone can like her? Like on the latest episod why Mrs Jay was at dinner with them, what a dumb ass look on her face. She looked like she was spastic. And during the dinner didn’t Mrs Jay ask a question to Eugene which Melrose decided to answer. She is the oldest but acts like the biggest kid she should just grow up!

I also dont like the fact that she was making fun of caridee because of the cold water. Some people cant handle cold water as well as other people can, there was no need for her to say thoes comments that she did.

joanie, sour grapes much? what is with you calling melrose evil? someone who tries their hardest to win something she really, really wants is not evil. she’s not putting anyone down, she’s working at a competition. what’s wrong with you? you were my favorite last season and these little blurbs you write are quite frankly, a turn off.
at this point, it’s really caridee that is annoying me actually. she has a boyfriend at home, right? why was she sucking the face off that spanish guy at the dinner? i dislike her unprofessional attitude and inability to control her emotions. what was that she whispered when melrose’s name was called at elimination? it wasn’t something nice.
i have no idea why eugena is still there…she has taken ONE good photo, she looks vacant in all the other ones.
team melrose all the way, she annoys me the least and takes good photos consistently.

Yes, I totally agree with the Melrose thing. She has worked the hardest and has had great pictures and has won practically every challenge in the competition. I definitely think she deserves to win. In addition, she is the only one that knows anything about fashion! I mean I’m not saying you have to have good clothes to be a model but fashion needs to be something that you know about and care about and Melrose definitely knows fashion. I think it’s really weird that Joanie always puts down Melrose. I mean she wins all the challenges and takes great pictures but you never seem to say a nice thing about her because of her personality. I really don’t think she is bad at all. This is a competition and she wants to win and I don’t think she is being an “evil prude” I think that she wants to win and you can tell. If anything, I think that Caridee is just as selfish as Melrose, if not more. All she cares about is herself and how she wants this so bad and she is always crying. I think that she is overrated and does not deserve to win because of how she acts. She is just not classy enough to be a top model.

That’s how I feel too Derek!! Oh man, wasn’t that funny when Jade said “This is not America’s Next Best Friend”! That was hysterical. I didn’t like Jade at first, but towards the end I did. When I first saw her pic on the ANTM site at the beginning of the season I turned to my husband and said, “I think she should win.” that’s before I saw how kind of crazy she was! But she worked hard and gave it her best. I wonder where she is now. She definitely had a unique look. What gets me is wy they let “older” girls on, or at least their definition of old, and then tell them throughout the whole competition…You’re too old.

Stick with 19 year olds then! Why put older girls on there…to play with their dreams?
