1. "RE: on ebony's quitting" |
As much as I've tried, I just cannot get into this season! It just seems like the same old stuff, with new faces.I flip back and forth, and it's like I'm flashing back to episode 4, or 5, or was it 3?? It's just a new face, and a little different drama! I really hope this show is on its last leg-I think Tyra has really worn it to its end. When you think about it, how many of these girls have really become anything after all the humility and garbage they've had to go through on this show? The only memorable model is Adrienne, and that is in a really unfavorable way. Sad.... Sorry, should not have vented on YOUR post, but I'm adding to WHY they would walk out. The bigger picture, maybe??

LAST EDITED ON 10-25-07 AT 11:50 AM (EST)I actually think Ebony did what was right for herself. Tyra and the rest of the panel are always emphasizing how rough a model's life can be. If Ebony can see now that it isn't for her, she's right to leave. Tyra was petty for calling her "unattractive" and a quitter. I think Tyra was just annoyed that Ebony left before Tyra told her she was out. I think its better that Ebony use her own head, leave now and give the girls who want it a chance. BTW- we're at episode what? 5? And I am only now figuring out who is who. Last week I couldn't keep track of the names. Aside from Heather, who I like, and Bianca, who's getting a little less B!tchy... no-one really stands out. This season is the most tedious ever.

LAST EDITED ON 10-25-07 AT 02:47 PM (EST)Peyton414: That is exactly what I was thinking. None of these girls are really into it. Does anyone think this is the last of the girls walking out on this show lol? I actually liked the way Ebony photographed for that Akademiks Campaign. I also don't think Ambrielle's second chance will help her that much. mistyrose52 That is how I felt about last season. I absolutely despised last season. Terrible!! I always thought the same thing about the success of the girls. Some of them do get a little bit of exposure then it dies down very quickly. Usually until the they choose the next winner of the cycle. I thought I was the only one who thought that Tyra was really humiliating these girls. lynkfri13 I didn't like that Tyra called her a quitter either. If you think you want to do something and when you finally get the chance and you realize you don't like it b/c it doesn't make you happy, then why continue to do it? She made a smart decision. Why stay in a place when you aren't happy? You are correct. Tyra just wanted to get the chance to eliminate Ebony, and the tables got turned on Tyra and she didn't like it. People experience things all the time and change their minds because its not what they really want. Just like Tyra got upset because Tiffany didn't cry because of her being eliminated. qwertypie, LMAO!

I think I might be in the minority here with my thoughts. I don't think Tyra called Ebony unattractive AND a quitter...she said that she thought quitting was unattractive. And it is...if you watched the audition part at the very end of the show Ebony made this huge stink about wanting the chance to be a model, that this was what she was meant to do and blah blah blah...seemed to me as the show went on and she wasn't the "one to watch" so to speak she got upset and decided that this wasn't for her. Some people can take criticism and some can't. Ebony couldn't. I'm sure atthe time Ebony really believed that her reason for leaving the show was because she missed her family, but it seems funny to me that as the show went on and the more she failed as a model her family became important to her.I don't think Tyra is humiliating these girls. I had a friend in High School (15 years ago) who was a model. She was thin, and pretty and confident like a lot of these girls are and OMG, when she went on go sees and to jobs the stuff that she heard about her face, her body, and even her personality almost destroyed her. She ended up modelling for only a few years before giving it up. She said that a lot of times people talked about her like she wasn't even there. I think what Tyra is doing is getting these girls ready for some harsh realities coming at them down the way. As for the last few cycles of girls. I have to say that this season is WAY better than last season. Jaslene and her commercials drive me crazy! It bothers me that so much was made about Danielle's southern accent two cycles ago but NOTHING was said about Jaslene and her nasal, tone deaf way of speaking! I can barely understand her!! As for the previous girls I have seen Caridee, Mercedes and of course Jaslene. I know that Yoanna had a show on the fashion network (not sure if it's still on) and frankly I know I'm not buying all the magazines out there to search for my faves. lol, that's way too much moula! A lot of the girls have myspace pages that I go onto and check out their latest works. Shandi cut her hair and has been doing a lot of runway work. I think Heather is going to take this competition! Has anyone noticed she is the model of the week every week!? I love Heather! If Bianca weren't such a witch I would like her too, though I have to say I was pleased that she was being nice to Heather even though she thinks Heather is her biggest rival and I was pleased to see her smiling with her eyes. (Has anyone tried this in front of their own mirror...not so easy to do! LOL)

If I remember correctly, I think the other models asked her what she saw their flaws as. One of the problems that many people with Aspergers face is that they have to be explicitly taught social rules that the rest of us learn instinctively. She was following the rule to answer questions honestly (and IMO, in order to fit in as well as she does, she studies the people around her closely), but maybe has never been taught the rule about pointing out other people's flaws. I don't know whether she'll win or not or whether she can handle the pressure or not. I just hope she knows what she is getting into.

HA! Ambreal's second chance has done her good! She made it into the next week and wasn't in the bottom two. Maybe her pictures will get stronger too.

7. "RE: on ebony's quitting" |
This episode finally is giving us something to talk about - yippee...I am actually starting to feel Bianca also, too bad her rep is spoiled by her previous bad acts.... This season, I can't really see any of these girls being models, they are alll very ho hum... Please, please let her keep the weave, lest she go back to the dime store wig.... I think that what Tyra said about a quitter being unattractive is true. I think that Eboni is so used to being the pretty girl that she couldn't handle anyone telling her the truth about her self. She might be pretty, and maybe she was uncomfortable, but she had no presence and every week she just showed up all stank at the judges panel, it was irritating. I think she put on the stank face just in case they said anything bad about her, that was her defense instead of just being able to walk in there and listen and take the criticism. I also agree with the poster that said that Tyra is not humiliating these girls. Sometimes her picture choices are suspect, but she seems to really be letting them know how the industry will be to them. I also commented last night about Jaslene's inability to talk. Tyra never once got on her like she did Danielle and look at how Danielle has progressed. I don't know about Heather winning, she's a pretty good model but in reality she realy has no presence either, she's not as bad as Eboni, but she just doesn't have too much....I don't mind her, but I just think that tooo many people are being very symathetic when they pick her as the whatever of the week everytime. It's not always true. But I guess since no one else is shining it might as well be her.... I love coming here an disecting with everyone the previous top model madness, its so fun everyweek....

Sometimes the girls will behave badly, but then they do great in the photoshoot, Tyra should mention their bad behavior in panel.

i think what tyra actual said was that quitting is a very unattractive quality. not quite the same as calling someone ugly
