R11, from the few seasons I've seen I've only liked the year when that super skinny red haired girl won. Now that was one beautifully filmed season, especially their L.A. episode. Wikipedia says it was season 3 in 2007. After that the show turned into regular catfighting with bullying and such. The girls at least are young enough to be real models, though. BTW, I hadn't even noticed they had a season in 2015. I thought the show was still on hiatus. And apparently they ditched Charlotte Dawson who was one of the biggest reasons I stopped watching since she kept bringing in fake drama. I remember liking her on season 3 but she turned insufferable later. I guess I might have to check out last year's season now.

R12 Charlotte Dawson committed suicide.

Season 4 was the one with the bullying, and the main bully won. Season 5 onwards had very interesting girls.

I liked Sarah with all her heighth.

My favorite winner was Jaslene Gonzalez. Chi-chi diva.. owned her cycle. Gorgeous Latina spitfire. I felt bad for Natasha, she was adorbz, but the best chick one.

Brittany -- the triumph from the trailer park was the most complete/high fashion level champion. Molly gave her a fight to the finish.

Adam -- the Malaysian American stunner was my favorite of all the male competitors. With the hot for Jordan, Jeremy's fine ass 2nd. Romeo had the hots for Adam as well and the psychotic warlock couldn't handle the "spell" frat boy Adam's hotness had cast.

Good times and memorable models over the years. I also thought hot Latina Leslie, from Danielle's season had a little something special too, her old lady walk transformed into catwalk fierceness.

The new era and cycle on VH1 is looking a little dubious. No men, and most of these girls are broken down/busted looking. Get well soon Bello, I couldn't stand Devon's cockatoo looking, diva-acting, fug ass either.

Jaslene killed it. Stunningly beautiful. Able to do editorial, catwalk queen, and straight to camera fierce face.

Natasha's men's magazine beach shot from her and Jaslene's cycle..one of the best ANTM photos ever !! Kapow baby..

Adam should have made the top 2 over cry-baby Will but whatev. 3 gorgeous guys in the top 3 was eye candy yummy.

I don't like anyone on the judging panel AT ALL ............and Rita Ora's dismissal of the loser model wannabe was just plan boring (no 'Standing before me ......') and it was very rushed.

Stacy whatserface is a supermodel ?? Okaaaaaaay. And vogueing ? Sheesh.

I like the okay, but I don't see how and why Rita Ora is taking the driver's seat. It should be a model or someone who had a career.

I'm an over 40 gay man so I'm obviously not in the target group but I've loved fashion photography since my days in a high school of art so I do check out these shows from time to time. ANTM with Tyra was quite terrible and the only reason I did watch a few episode here and there were the male models in the past few seasons. The only good ANTM versions I've seen have been from Australia and Germany. They both featured girls as young 16 who could really get a job in the industry.

This new ANTM is terrible. I've no idea why the went with Rita Ora. She's got nothing to do with fashion, and the nobodies as judges are not helping. I did like Stacey McKenzie since she was a successful model at some point. Her story about her start in the modelling was actually great even if the waterworks were a bit over the top.

ANTM is now even more just another reality show but it's obviously always been a silly show not to be taken too seriously. But like I said since I'm not a teen girl I'm probably not right to say anything about it. In any case I won't be watching it any more.

by Anonymousreply 66December 21, 2016 7:43 AM

R66) You said both shows were terrible, which one is worse, Tyra or Rita's hosting?

by Anonymousreply 67December 22, 2016 3:27 AM

R67, Tyra at least is a former model, and knows the industry, even if the show has never been about real modeling. And she loves photography which is a great thing. Rita Ora immediately brought to mind the UK version of ANTM, which is in some ways even worse than ANTM. Although admittedly I've certainly not seen all seasons of any version of Top Model.

But still, I'm sure teen girls who dream of modeling enjoy the show. This new version had a slightly fresher feel to it in some ways.

I didn't think the twins would fare well perhaps because of co-dependency issues. Nope. Those bitches are bringing it.

Thick eyebrows chick, best picture this week is a drama bitch. She's gorgeous but seems to be forever complaining or crying about something. She's beautiful, but her personality is making her very unlikable. Her makeover look is stunning.

The hideous hag with the red hair that got sent home this week, should have got her ugly, arrogant ass sent home this week. Bye bitch. It's called rhinoplasty. Google it. Get it done to that current silly putty with 2 nostrils above your lips.

Butch girl Ryan rocks her look and vibe. She could win it all. Unique and photogenic, and she can alternate between fem and masculine subtly, which makes her memorable and marketable. A 1-2 punch.

Paige was in the bottom two for the first time. Coryann has been in bottom two at least 3 of the 8 panels.

Another awful thing about this season is the editing. I knew from the first minutes of this episode and last that Paige and Marissa were goners.

Can't yet tell if they're setting the twins up for a bottom two or top two episode.

Tatianna is now being edited as a bigger bitch than Courtney.

Still liking India. Paige wasn't TOP model material but she seemed like a nice girl. I hope she books gigs.

Agree that some of these models (Courtney-Tash-Cody) are old, but it seems they've been modeling awhile and just haven't broken through. They're not NEW models, just trying to elevate their standing in the industry.

Courtney has an amazing face, but is also quite short.

Ashley Graham is doing pretty well overall. I could see her taking over the job as head judge. Rita Ora is obviously not the right person. She has no spark or charisma, nor does she have enough energy. Plus she apparently knows nothing about modelling. She and the contestant Tatiana actually have similar personalities: laid-back stoner girls. Not judging them, but it isn't a good fit for this format.

Seeing Stacey McKenzie on the judging panel made me realize that she is not bad as a judge. I think she could be the secondary female judge. She could bring the necessary bitch factor, I think.

The two male judges need to go. The blond one is rather mean and petty without being amusing, as Kelly Cutrone could be, at least. The black male judge seems nice enough, but also doesn't seem very intelligent and his critiques are not interesting because he has difficulty expressing himself. They both make you miss the days of Nigel Barker and Mr. J.

I miss my nights with Nigel and Mr. J was fun to party with....but what the show is really missing is TYRA!! Jay Manuel and Stacey McKenzie were the main judges on the Canadian version of Next Top Model with Coco Rocha and Jeannie Becker and Mike Ruiz. Pretty good show for a few seasons.

Has it been like 5 music-based challenges in a row now? I like the reboot, but the music angle is too much.

Poor Paige never saw it coming.

Lol

I thought Tatiana had the worst photo, but I blame mostly styling on that. No model could make that wig and dress look good. That was really unfair. Some girls got amazing styling. So, for that, I wouldn't have Eliminated her.

Cory's photo isn't bad, but like her, it's very bland.

I also felt like they photshopped the hell out of India's face in her photo, and didn't acknowledge it. That's not particularly fair either. If she is the winner, then they are fixing it heavily for her win.

by Anonymousreply 129February 13, 2017 6:07 AM

India is homely but photographs well .... I agree completely that Tatiana was set up to look hideous in that ugly dress and wig. Tyra is mean, but not that ugly. The one who most resembled her 'icon' was sent home. Be her, but don't. Be inspired by her but be yourself....wear this cheap wig and costume, be her but be ironic, stay true to your brand....nonsense. Paige looked like Britney in her eyes, pose and smizzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzze. 28 year old with borderline collie disorder had nothing to do with Madonna. Dumb shit show. I fucked j manuel a few times, messed him up!

They focus way too much on the music video angle and 'branding yourself'. Is this competition really still about modelling?

by Anonymousreply 131February 13, 2017 11:44 PM

Yeah, is that only because Rita is/was(?) in that industry? What does she do exactly? I've also noticed she's dropped the "America's" from the next top model.

Modelling seems to be evolving with the advent of social media, and a lot of the exclusivity and prestige it once had is gone. This show adapted and now wants a jack of all trades - dancer, actor, activist, and least of all a traditional fashion model. The cheapening sucks, but it is what it is.

Well, the winner doesn't even get a modeling contract with an agency....just a VH1 'talent deal'

by Anonymousreply 133February 14, 2017 1:52 AM

I don't know if modeling has evolved to social media fest as they said. I think this has a lot to do with finding the girl with the most followers to increase ratings for the show. They even tried adding a social media element by having followers be a part of the vote. I know Amazing Race loaded up their cast with a bunch of social media darlings.

The five minute commercial DURING THE SHOW for Universal Studios was AWESOME ...... NOT

Was wrong this week ........ I thought they were foreshadowing Courtney's boot, particularly with the Paper cover shoot.

But I should've gotten 'the clue' when Rita said they were looking at the models body of work. Tash has no body of work since she was off the show for five panels

'I'll starve myself until I'm famous' to 'it takes 15 years to become famous' to 'what is it you care about ?' and finally 'truth'

SNORT ............... but Cindy from OITNB looked good.

I was kind of expecting Tatianna to go, but should've realized from the editing of Cody's overconfidence that she was about to be shown the door.

Courtney (homeless) and Coryanne (abandoned by mother) both have the background story hooks that could take them to the end.

I still like India best, but she's not 'dramatic' enough and I fear her time is next.

Is their a International Destintion this cycle? Will they go to Bejing?

by Anonymousreply 141February 25, 2017 3:48 PM

Apparently they did r141 but it was cancelled and edited out. Allegedly the judge who was the gay one in bone thugs n harmony got busted soliciting in the men's bathrooms and arrested. And then production wouldn't pay for the two seats that fat model judge needed, so the plane wouldn't leave the terminal either. They were only going to Milwaukee anyway because Rita had some vouchers for a specific best western there.

I wonder how they'll pick a winner? A runway show would seem so out of left field for this cycle. Based on what they've done so far it should be a multi-event thing like a 100m sprint, best original song challenge, and then the girl that finds a husband first, wins!

Lol at all the fake drama manufactured for India in the final episode. She had no sob story, no disability, simply stepped up her game and won. Congrats!

All those music vid challenges paid off too. Didn't they look awesome swaying to that song by that chick that wasn't Ashanti but had a similar name, in the middle of a runway show. Très sophistique.

Lastly, I'm not sold on the judges. Bring back Nigel and the Jays!

I so agree. I didn't mind Graham as a judge, but I can't stand Rita. I know it was probably planned, but I loved when Rita dropped a peg when Tyra came on the set.

India is a stunning girl. Cat eyed and a decent model who takes beautiful photos. Yes, please bring back the guys. It's too bad that anti-Tyra backlash prevented all but few previous ANTM winners and contestants from actually being a top model.

Adam the gorgeous Asian fratboy was my fave guy. Jaslene the cha-cha diva my fave winner.

That Rita pimping as an international superstar is a joke, but Ashley, especially as a plus-size is considered a supermodel. She was on the cover of SI, Cosmo, Elle, and Vogue, which are the gold standards for being considered a supermodel.

Plus, she has a lot of name recognition all without being connected to someone in the industry, unlike Kendal Jenner and Gigi/Bella Haddid.

Ashley Graham made the show. She was the most beautiful chick in the room at ALL times. She's so down to earth and relatable, and doesn't take herself overly seriously. She is drop dead gorgeous and the ONLY thing close to a supermodel or relevant celebrity on the ANTM reboot.

The recent male winners are consistently getting work. So if would make sense to do an all male version or a co-ed version next season. Phil @insightphil still models and is a photographer. Keith @keithcarlos seems to be working consistently. And of course Nyle @nyledimarco had been busy since he's won.

I agree about Ashley, she should be the one running the show. Not Rita. She was the best thing about the judging panel. Her only misstep was her preference for Tatiana over India.

This season there wasn't even a real episode of 'go-sees'. It was always fun to see the models get lost in a strange city. They took a walk in front of a designer who criticized all of them in an early episode, but that was about it.

Glad to see Rita go ............ now she can focus on her international career. Snort. A day in the life of Rita Ora .... at the unemployment office.

by Anonymousreply 178March 22, 2017 11:41 PM

This last season was too different. In the end, it really wasn't about being a 'model', which was the original premise of the show. For some bizarre reason, it's like they wanted it to be about being a 'personality'. It was odd, for example, how they crammed in the fashion show at the end, but didn't go through teaching the girls how to walk. Maybe they did and just didn't show it, but that made the 'walk off' seem tacked on at the end. Anyway, I've given this entirely too much thought, and I'm glad Tyra is coming back.
