America's Next Top Model finales are always a crazy affair since they need to go through two eliminations and in between we get a full runway show and a couple of challenges. We started out the episode with a little reminiscing about the backgrounds of each of the characters. Danielle has simply been stunning from the beginning. Remember at the beginning of the season when she was arguing with that model of tolerance named Dani? I thought Danielle was going to into the ABG (angry black girl) and pull a Tiffany by the end of the season. Who expected that she would be the most grounded person out of the entire group?

Then we had Joanie, who has always had a little bit of that girl next door thing going for her. If that didn't allure you enough, than the though of her working amateur nights at strip clubs was enough to get the hear racing a little bit. Joanie's biggest problem was a snaggletooth so big it made you wonder if one of her grandparents was a saber-toothed tiger. I don't know why some people called it cute; mangled tooth were so over by Jewel's second album. That doesn't matter anymore because Joanie has a great set of pearly whites; her only problem is learning how to work with them.

And then there is Jade, who seems to piss off just about everybody. We loved the brash confidence and in your face attitude when Eva brought it to us, but for Jade, it just screams arrogance. I think it has to do with the fact that so much of what Jade does is simply for show. Whenever she opens her mouth, you feel like she is only telling you what you want to hear. In other words, she talks confident because she thinks that is what the judges want. When it comes time to back it up, more times than not she lets the smallest things get to her.

Perhaps some of you were thinking "Maybe I'll give Jade another chance" at the beginning of the show. I have my favorites, but for the interest of the competition, I do give everybody a clean slate. If Jade wasn't a bitch, I wouldn't let her past performance bring her down. That doesn't mean I wouldn't commence heavy drinking when she is done, but I would give her another chance. That being said, Jade took about thirty seconds to cast aside any good will that I had gathered for her.
