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.

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!
