Yep, the girl is a mess. But I still stick by my first impression ... she's playing a role ... just like too many others. The only thing I do like about her is that she has actually stood her ground on a few things and not become just another one of the mindless SO blabbering fools that left their own brains at the airport on their way to the SOH, actually buying the entire boat load of cr@p being crammed down their throats ... including believing they are somehow transformed from incredibly stupid low-life nobodies into famous on-their-way-to-riches super stars. Antonia never set out to change her life. Why give up the partying, the clothes, the idea that she is the cutest thing on the planet, while mommy & everyone else pays her way if she doesn't have to? Didn't we already see SO-failure-Lisa play this role? Both of these women were looking for something to do, a reality show that let them play. Antonia didn't make the cut on Real World so now she's stuck playing the role of a seriously concerned 20-something who has partied her way into uncontrolled debt. If she really wanted any more TV work she should have done a lot better job playing the part. She would have actually needed to come on pretending to care and pretending to "get it" ... making changes in her character along the way. Instead, she comes off as not caring, insincere and someone who has no desire to change their ways. Since this appears to be the real Antonia, then her acting skills don't exist. I don't buy the occassional, well-placed "I'll just have my mom take care of it" for the sake of the role.

But I would rather see 100 Antonias than one more millisecond of GrannyClampetChristie.
