I knew that and perhaps the scoring system isn't totally to blame here and Tyra really went mad but it's just too forced and very... dry. A 0.1 sent me home oh okay... How do the public popularity numbers get determined anyway? They can be manipulated just as easily as the judges' scores. It's not really about the numbers or statistics - it's about the X factor, the 'it' that pre-17 cycles focused on. After Brittany's cycle it all went wrong. Partly due to Tyra having a midlife crisis, partly because of the numbers and social media shit. NO IT WON'T MAKE YOUR 0.3 RATINGS LOOK BETTER, TYRA

I agree that since Cycle 16 it's no longer been a serious competition (well, as serious as ANTM could be). What the show needs is someone as talented and stunning as Nicole and Ann, we haven't had one for the past 7 cycles. Lisa was entertaining, Sophie was great and Jourdan was OK, but other than that everything has been pretty meh. I do have faith in Lennox and Matthew this time around, though, as they take some amazing pictures later on, but there would be no point if they took them after getting eliminated :lol:.

 

Now let's take a moment to appreciate this post-cycle 16 highlight:

 

omg that was a fun challenge~

 

I want another contestant like Ann. She was EVERYTHING. 5 wins in a row! *.*

omg speaking of Lisa, I just found this

HAAA u poor cow~

 

Did she tell them she was an 'escort' right before they were about to crown her as the winner? She was on 2 seasons so she had plenty of time to talk about it. She'd just not be crowned as winner in the first place. So stupid.

 

And why would that matter anyway? Hookers do win reality TV shows. helen wood *cough*

Yay for the truth finally. I thought she'd just slept with a crew guy or something. The article says she told them prior to filming the season, so they knew for a while?

Exactly. Why would they go on with crowning her the winner if they knew about it beforehand?! That's ridiculous.

The scoring system doesn't affect anything. If Romeo hadn't of got kicked out Lennox wouldn't have been given a one and Adam would have left. The judges scores basically secure the rankings, it's not like they don't organise the scores they give before the filming or anything.

Tyra, what a b**ch for giving Lennox a 1, poor girl must've been heartbroken :( SO glad she's still in.

 

The ratings system as a whole are way too generous with marks. Nothing but criticism for Lennox but she got two 7s (which means they like it).

 

My mouth fell open at that article Pavel! I think they may have found out

Tyra was such a bitch to Lenox in this episode. First saying she deserved a zero, then refusing to give her a picture because she "doesn't deserve it", even though she got to stay, and then giving her only five frames in the next photoshoot!

 

Will is my boyfriend.

Can I also just say what a joke it is that Romeo was so verbally abusing to Adam, but instead got eliminated for a headbutt :lol: So much for 'zero tolerance'.

Zero tolerance for physical abuse

They probably allow verbal abuse for the drama, but decided that physical abuse is going too far.

just catching up on the episode properly oops~

 

Mirjana UGH. "Maybe he's bi and he just doesn't want to admit it" BLAH BLEH BLEUGHTHRLERJGJHGJSDGJSG what a stupid girl.

 

and all the OH MAH GAHD he/she SO HAWT things need to stop. SO ANNOYING. This is a modelling competition ffs!

 

omg the stickers bit HAAAAAAAAAAA I am LOLing. Embarrassing doesn't even describe it.

 

Romeo was one of my favourite boys so him leaving makes it 3/3 great contestants leaving. GREAT. But obviously Denzel/Keith/Mirjana/Kari and their INCREDIBLY BORING love rhombus will stay until as far as possible. SAY YAY 4 TEDIOUSNESS

 

Watch Lenox KILL it from now on *.* This is her picture from next week. I think it's

f***ing fabulous personally! That neck!

And the photo from episode 7 is going to

SLAY EVERYONE AND EVERYTHING. IT'S THAT GOOD.

Adam's just get worse and worse omg it's REALLY EMBARRASSING. not going to put this one in spoiler tags as he's terrible and everyone already knew it.

Ben and Adam. You can just SMELL the desperation.

 

Lenox SLAYING *.* Next week she's going to be the top bitch as well.

 

Keith in the bottom 2. OH top photos of first weeks. OOPS. Denzel and Adam need to go ASAP. Just coasting through the comp on Tyra love. Just no.

Oh no Tyra don't give me that 'improvement' storyline for Adam, I just CAN'T. He and Keith (not Denzel yet, Pavel :angry: ) HAVE to go. Though, I have a feeling that Raehlia is next. :(

It wasn't Tyra who said Adam was improving though. It was Kelly. Or it was both. I think that Tyra genuinely thinks Adam is a model. He's a joke. Bring back Romeo so he can finish the job~

 

Denzel / Keith / Adam / Kari GOODBYE

 

Raelia has an bad photo next week so I think you might be right :( HOWEVER, Kari's is MORE TERRIBLE so I'm predicting Kari to go tbh.

You know Tyra is behind EVERYTHING, Pavel, we've discussed this :P Raelia looks like Miss J there, haha. By the way I just figured out who Kari reminds me of. A tanner (and uglier) KERLI!

This cycle is so bad so far. Only a Lenox win will save it oops~ But if Leila couldn't win I don't hold much hope for Lenox going all the way either :( Just realised how their journeys are similar. Only THANK f*** for Romeo <3

Ben was one of the best boys. Keith, Denzel, Adam, Mirjuina or whatever need to leave. Shei is so underated it hurts.

By the way I just figured out who Kari reminds me of. A tanner (and uglier) KERLI!

 

 

I've been thinking the exact same thing.

 

I LOL'd at the song-playing at panel. It was hilarious when everyone started dancing and singing along.
