Felicia Provost

Note: This has got to be one of my favorite photo shoots of ANTM history. I'm not surprised, Mike Rosenthal did a really good job. He is so good in covering up the flaw of the contestants. Here's the thing. I believe that Samantha should have gotten best photo. She looked believable. Also Brittany, Jaslene, and Whitney did a really good job. Felicia had a good photo, I don't get why they eliminated her. Couldn't take a little competition Tyra? I guess so too. Dionne and Sarah's photos were 'so-so' but it wasn't bad enough for them to land on the bottom two. Renee had a good photo but when you zoom in on her face, she doesn't look dead, she looks drunk. Jael's photo is exquisite, her face is so believable, the only thing that prevented her from getting best photo are her hands. I believe that a dead and strangled person wouldn't have those kind of posey hands. LOL. Diane, once again, doesn't know how to model. Period. She looks like she is gasping for air than dead. That said, she should have gone home.

Cassandra Watson

Note: I had high hopes that Cassandra would make it further in the competition, though it is true, this photo would be left behind should it be compared to others, but what she lack in this photo she makes up for in potential. I do not believe that Diana is a better model than Cassandra. Isn't it obvious? I don't know if the judges are blind or if this rigged show is trying to come up with something stupid again. I'm sick to my stomach. And P.S. I do not have anything against Diana or her being a plus size, I only have issues with her not knowing squat about the dynamics of modeling and the judges uncanny ability to save contestants, AND the show being so, so rigged. That's all.

"Girl With The Bad Reputation"

Samantha Francis

Note: As much as I hate to sound biased, I totally do not agree with the ranking of the contestants in this episode. I believe that Whitney and Diane should have been on the bottom two in this episode and Diane should have been sent home, (Whitney because her photo is so amateur, Diana because she can't model) She just does nothing for me in her photos. And if you were to compare Diane and Samantha, I'm pretty sure who you'd pick as the obvious choice. Seriously ANTM along with Tyra Banks should stop thinking about the ratings. If they were more attune to showing and judging REALITY then I believe that the rigged show's rating would soar higher. Tsk, tsk, tsk.

"Anti-fur"

Note: Was really sad to see Kathleen go in this episode. I believe that there is no need for ANTM to make stunts in making us believe that it is indeed a rigged show, we know already. Anyhooha, I do not believe that Kathleen is slow, but I do believe that that's what this rigged show would want us to see her. Poor Kathleen, if it was up to me, I would have sent Diana home (NO I don't have issues with plus size models, so relax), she just doesn't know how to model. AT ALL. She even lacks personality. Is this rigged show trying to show us flava? Nah, fail AGAIN. Hey Ty! you missed a spot!
