suh-weet recap. i love the fatima/precious moments comparision. it is absolutely true.

marvita is way awesome and fatima is irritating. fatima acts like she is tc for everyone, but marvita would totally be a cool chick to hang with.

stacy anns picture looked sooo much like danielle dani) who won a few cycles back.

Love the recap.
I am so sorry but every time i here the Amy girls new name Amis-i just wanna say anus-i have no idea why-it just sounds so much the same-lol

Kim's doing the same "look up at the lights" thing that they tore up Amis for.

PS I thought Amis was referring to the pic of Tyra and Caridee when she said "It's you and I in the future." That might make more sense than THE FUTURE IS TELEVISION!

I still love me some Allison.

Claire got stuffed into the same ugly outfit TPTB made the tranny Jaslene wear two seasons back for a photo by some bleachers. Yuck.

Does anyone else think that Marvita looks a little like Donkey from Shrek?

OMG, wickedk8, that is so true - LMAO!

Fatima doesn't know how to act but that's been the problem with all "foreigners" on this show - Nnena, Natasha, etc. I still think she's the most striking of all of them. In the scene where she was agruing with Amis and had flat-ironed her hair, she looked just like Iman.

cattyfan, I noticed that too, they had Claire wear the same getup they had Jaslene wear during the Cycle 8 high school shoot...but admittedly she didn't rocked it the way Jaslene did.

wickedk8 you rock-LOL and its very true

Did anyone else notice the bad editing with Ms. J's vest? Kim left, Ms. J removed her name, but when Atalya and whats-er-face where being judged, the name was back. Hmm.

I also loved the Fatima/Precious Moments comparison.

And I had NO idea the other models in the picture were really homeless...don't know how I missed that one but that just seems tacky and wrong. Tyra tries way too hard to be "authentic" and just ends up looking like an even bigger idiot.

It's funny she made one of the Amy's change her name. If someone ever suggested such a thing to Tyra she'd have a meltdown.

Stacy Ann reminds me of past winner Danielle in her pictures.

Marvita looks like a horse, end of story. Huge nostrils, crazy mohawkish hair, and huge front teeth. Neeeeeeigh!!

I looooooove Allison. Push past the pilates girl!!!!

Tha was funny....but what really made me laugh was the comment by wickedk8 about Marvita looking like Donkey from Shrek......Yesssssssssssssssssssssssssss I loved that cuz its soooo true....lololol

Did anyone else notice that when Fatima's had the heart to heart with Marvita that Fatima's hair was messy, then they cut to MArvita and when they cut back to Fatima her hair was pulled back???? i rewatched this like 4 times. I understand that reality TV is not real, but I just don't think the people at ANTM really care anymore.

No, wickedk8. Marvita looks like Patrick Ewing.

Do a Google image search for "Patrick Ewing SI" and you'll have your next Tyra magazine covergirl.

Thanks for the recap, sadly I missed epi 1, but I'm caught up. I was surprised with the cut, though you, dear Hoolia, seem to be way up in the predicting!!! Atyala whatev reminded me of last years top model--I didn't see it coming.

Funny with Reese splitting, like so not into fashion--it is a shame she didn't realize before she was picked. So far, so dull, but I might start enjoying this. Marvita and Fatima--it's like some warring saints from the Bible with those names--I'll agree with you all tho, Fat is pretty hot, and Marv is so not, but I don't dislike her. Hopefully the word "Homeless" will never be mentioned again!

Female mutilation is soooooo wrong--I hope Fat can help! 4 reals . . .

Stacy Ann reminds me of Kelly Kapoor in terms of her annoying voice, and Amis looks weirdly like Sarah from cycle 5, also Ms Jay's grossvest has Amis's name still as Amy. Great reca Hoolia!! I cannot believe I am still watching this show, though.

whoops, I mean she looks like LISA not SARAH from cycle 5.

Great recap Hoolia! Too Much Fun! The only girls that looks to me like any sort of model are Claire and Whitney. They have my votes. Of course I had Heather winning it all last season & look where that got me....

Great recap! Love this show and love these recaps more.

hey y'all, thanks for the comments!

juddfann - didn't realize i was getting so caught up in the predicting. i'll try and keep it light up until right before panel. i just get frustrated when the editors make it ridiculously obvious who gets cut! with any hope, it will get better as more competitors get cut and everyone's weekly screen time starts to even out

queto and wickedk8 - right on. if patrick ewing and the donkey from shrek had a little bastard lovechild, it would be marvita. both of those might be used in future screencaps if it's cool with you...

k_mo - at least kelly kapoor has a lot of personality (albeit totally fictional). stacy ann seems so vapid, and im fearing for an episode that centers on her because i can tell already that it will annoy the hell out of me. and i did catch that amis is amy on ms jays vest!

see you kids in a few days for episode 3!

Juddfan, I agree with you about Atayla looking like Saleisha. Actually, I'd say Atayla is cuter. When they showed Tootie's My Life as a Covergirl commercial I thought she looked so blah. Definitely the most boring girl to win so far.

Also agree with the comments about StacyAnn = Danielle and Amis = Lisa. I guess there are only so many unique, pretty faces out there. Airing two cycles per year seems to have diluted the talent on this show but I guess UPN doesn't have enough hit shows on the schedule.

Thank you Braps--I soooo couldn't think of her name . . . and I guess I missed the cover girl commercial, but I know I'll get more chances!

Hoolia, I'm just worshipping and in awe, you don't have to change your forecasting . . . and it's so true, esp in this show, that you can call the loser (but you got bottom 2!)

I don't know Lisa, but StacyAnn IS bubbly Dani, 4 sure--can't believe they haven't said so.

I do think Whitney rocks!!!! this time the plus size is going far!!!! That's my prediction, anyway, she's not only confident, it was so sexy the way she moved at the end of the runway, she got a lot of hoots!!!! Go Whitney!! Smokin' pic too!
