Cycle 4 - Everyone loved Kahlen Rondot and she was very good, but Naima was clearly the winner based on her final runway.
Cycle 5- Almost a clear winner too, Nik and Bre were no match for Nicole, although she wasn't really likable.
Cycle 6 - This one was quite tough, I thought Joanie would be won it based on some of her unbelievable pictures, but Danielle had more of what the judges liked.
Cycle 7 - The battle between the insane and perfectionist. No one really likes a perfectionist , so it was quite clear. But you just gotta love Caridee.
So as usual, the winner of the cycle gets this.
Saleisha gets the winner's shoot with Tyra as winner of cycle 9!So, for those who hasn't watched the entire cycle, I'm not giving away the winner.
But as usual, I neutrally highlight the potential good ones from the first few episodes even knowing the winner.
So here it goes, my personal favourite, Katarzyna.
She originates from Poland, so the pronunciation goes like this. It sounds like "Ka-Tar-Jennna"if you choose to go the easy way, but it's the closest I can explain. She has this very likeable look and very European-ish which people will love. In terms of personality, I gotta say she seems slightly missing at times. But with her extremely unique style, could she make it all the way?
This was her best shot from my take. The photo is based on a music genre , Emo. The short hair did do wonders.
Next up, is the Russian beauty , Anya.
She didn't really standout at first, but when she took off, she was unbelievable. At first, her Russian accent sounded nowhere like an American and everyone was fearing that she couldn't speak. But soon people took notice that her accent was actually very authentic and special. She sounds quite funny at times too! Judging after judging , the comments about her porcelain skin never stopped flooding. I have plenty of hopes on her.
And here's a model with a comparison. She hails from Somalia. So there's only one name that pops in the judges name. It's no other than supermodel Iman.
Oh wait!!! I haven't the even mentioned the contestant's name yet. Haha. She's Fatima.
Resemblance? Maybe not with these pictures. Well she has a very painful story in her life and probably really influenced Tyra. For many reasons, there's always doubt in the judges about her. Watch to find out why. But with pictures as graceful as the one on the right, it may be making history on ANTM.
And next we have Lauren.
She is at least 6 feet tall. The photo is a shoot for supermodel Elle McPherson's line. She took very stunning pictures in this cycle, but.....she walks like Sarah in Cycle 5 = Disaster. Is it because of her height, no excuses here. But with Tyra and Jay's walking lessons,can she do the walk and overcome this weakness?
In every cycle, we will have full figured models (plus size) trying to break the drought in ANTM. We seen countless ones getting eliminated. But this cycle, she is confident and she is proud of her size. She's Whitney.
The picture is mainly based on having paint poured on your face and it's based on the expressions, less of the body movement other than the hands. She did really impress the judges in the audition and she takes some marvelous photos too. With the odds against plus-sizes, is it gonna take a miracle to make history?
Blondes have been my prefered choice over a few cycles, but this one is totally forgotten. She kinda made history as well, like Ebony in the previous cycle, what did she do, you recall...
She's Kimberly.
She is a blooper I tell you and I am too disappointed to describe her . But sometimes, she does remind me of stunning Aussie supermodel , Gemma Ward.
99/100 people would probably disagree but this is just what I see. Personal opinion. But I confirm, Gemma is a gazillion times better.
So here's 10 reasons to watch ANTM cycle 10.
1. There is a new judge, and who would the new judge replace.
2. There is a returning contestant who failed to make to into the final 13.
3. The winner will have a billboard in Times Square.
4. Contestants return to a country visited before.
5.A visit by guest judge from another Next Top Model series.
6.Tyra doing a photo shoot she has never done before.
7. A new opening theme !
8. The most unique judging location and time?
9.Another double elimination?
10.Two contestants with identical names.
Here's all I can do for a preview. This is almost the best I could do, trying to brighten a dimming flame. But no doubt we will always hail Tyra Banks!
