Renee did make me mad, sad and happy; I was happy for her to get a good shot, and sad for her to have the debt but mad because she again, acted horrible to Felicia. Felicia was being polite, asking if she was okay and Renee had a rude reply. Renee is just not going to win this competition based on next week either, telling Whitney a plus-size model will never be on Vogue. Great way to make friends!

She's isn't the nicest person in the bunch, but she also doesn't have to be. In the immortal words of Jade, "This isn't America's Next Top Best Friend." And unlike Diana, she's at least trying to correct herself.


But I didn't understand her drawing; is there some inside joke between those two or was I too stupid to understand it? I didn't get how telling Jael she was a girl with a straight jacket not tied was flattering. But of course, Jael is weird and loved it. I still like Jael the best though.

All in all, Dion should've been sent home. Felicia had more potential and Dion just got lucky. Go home next week!

I laughed so hard when Renee told Whitney a plus-size model would never be on the cover of Vogue. Honestly, there is no longer models on the cover of Vogue, anyhow. The majority of the cover stars are just that - stars. Jennifer Hudson, who is not a size 2, was recently on the cover :)

Sure. Renee may have lovely pictures, but personality does count. I can't name one past winner who had a horrible attitude (even if Nicole said 'okay' far too much). You can be the most beautiful girl on there with the best pictures, but with a sucky attitude, you'll make it to the top 3 and be sent home.

And Baby-Tyra should've stayed. The end. :)

So "Moe's" gone; not shocked to say the least but I didn't really understand their criticism of her posing for every shot, maybe because she didn't look like she naturally felt those emotions?

As for Whitney, I don't know, I can see why they kept her, she's a really pretty girl. It's just, her time is limited if she can't step it up.

And Jael, ha, snaps for her for being all confident. I love it!

Edit:

I also quite enjoyed 50 Cent in this episode; it made me like him (As a person, I've always liked his music).

I dont understand what Tyra sees in Whitney, honestly. She's not pretty (to me), and she's never taken a good picture. Sarah wasn't great, but she definately didn't deserve to go this week.

Whitney stayed purely for the fact that she is a beautiful girl and her speech is nice. I honestly didn't picture Sarah in the bottom two this week. The whole deal with the 'posed' shots was kind of lame, seeing as, isn't that what you see in magazine editorials, anyhow? We thought she resembled a GAP ad or the like.

Watched this weeks and I'm not shocked Jael was eliminated, but I really want Dionne gone. She's a nice girl, but seriously, leave.

Renee is becoming a favourite of mine, I don't know why, but I'm really starting to like her. As for Jaslene, she really needs to step it up, she's falling off the pedestal she was once on.

Renee FTW!

I thought from the first episode that she took great pictures! she just wasn't very nice. But she is getting better.

Dion will be gone next week. she can't make it to the top 4

Looks like she just did!

I am happy they kept her over Brittany. Man was she annoying; and Dionne brought up a wonderful point. How did Brittany manage to memorize a whole acting piece within an hour yet could not recite a simple, less complex dialogue? I sense she's over exaggerating this "short term memory" condition.

And kudos to Natasha for staying calm when she was disqualified, unlike our poor Britters who kept interrupting the lady everytime she spoke. I kept laughing, it was hilarious.

Renee for the win!

That's what I was asking myself all last week.

I like Dionne, but she's my pick to go next. I would like to see a Natasha/Jaslene final two. Renee does take awesome pictures, but her personality needs a lot of work.

Dionne is definately gone next week.

But I would rather see Renee in the finals, however I think Natasha and Jaslene (As you said) will be the Final Two.

I think Jaslene needs to go rather than Dionne; It irked me so badly when people kept praising Jaslene's 'body' up and down during the go sees, while the entire time I wanted to give the girl a sandwich. I know she's probably naturally thin, but I think ANTM need to pick a winner that'll make more than the naturally super thin feel good about themselves.

As much as I like Renee FTW, I think it will be a hard choice between Renee, Natasha and Jaslene. They all take amazing pictures.

I loathe Renee. The preview for next episode is yet another shining example of why she needs the boot. She may take better pictures than Dionne, but Natasha and Jaslene are both much stronger models.

I love Renee, she's upfront and brutally honest. Plus she takes amazing photographs.
