The new Cycle 8 Spoiler and Speculation Thread

[tstumo]

Some of you do know this is ANTM right? Tyra isnt trying to get some high fasion runway walker in Paris kinda model. if she wanted that Sarah and a bunch of other people wouldnt have been eliminated in this season and other previous seasons. too. so walking on a runway looking slim in a designer dress aint gonna determine who wins.

i've said it many times Jaslene or Dionne will be in the final 3. aint no way Tyra will have 3 white girls in the finals. so count a Brittany, Renee, Natasha final 3 out. i want Dionne or Brittany to go tonight. their both forgetable to me.

I do not read too much into that "special" and "unexpected" comment, because that's what they're going to say every cycle to get viewers to tune in.

As for Jay's elicited comment of being shocked about someone not making the final 3, we don't know what point in the competition (or was it the entire cycle in retrospect) he made that comment, as the cycle was filmed half a year ago. Right? If it was in the beginning, then it can only refer to Jaslene or Brittany. If it was anywhere in the middle and beyond, then it can refer to all of the girls except Renee. Dionne and Natasha have been rising up in rankings so quickly after the 1st 3 episodes. We don't know if Jay has made these comments watching any of the edited episodes himself. But I'm not sure how much of this information from Jay is correlated to the other judges. Too bad we don't have more than one statement, as Jay often does not agree with panel. I still also think this refers to Jaslene or Brittany, but most likely Brittany, since the "struggles with her lines" in the F3 sounds an awful lot like Jaslene (or Dionne).

Only Brittany or Natasha "deserve" to win this based on portfolio, since they both have such high call-out order. I do not completely believe the validity of call-out averages, because if you were called 11th that first episode (just one shoot), and 1st every time after (more than 5-6 shoots), your call-out average is still going to be worse than someone that's 2nd or 3rd every time, which isn't representative. That's why Natasha's call out average is so low. The first few weeks, being in the B2 threw her back, because she's essentially been 1st or 2nd every time after. So even though I may not see her as a model at all,only a TV personality, she's been getting called very high on her photo shoots.

Dionne is the least model like out all the girls. I hope she goes tonight, but I have a feeling that Jaslene will leave us tonight, which is good!

i completely agree, i want a nene, brit, nata final 3

[Kaizen]

Anyone else notice in the opening that the first three girls shown are Natasha,Britt and Dionne?

[bbxoxo]

it's sad to see Brit goes...like we all think brit is gonna be in final three.
i think renee definitely has a chance to win.
but something is pulling me back.
Can a blonde win this cycle as there's already one last cycle...?

At this moment..i think natasha will win the competition as she's different from other winners from past cycles.

[skylight]

hmmm...i guess the reason they didn't have Tyra's infamous B/W beauty shots this cycle is because they had 2 swimsuit shoots this episode.

Here is a list I posted in this thread several pages back:

They went like this..
Kathleen
Samantha
Cassandra
Felicia
Diana
Sarah
Whitney
Jael
Brittany
Dionne
Natasha
Renee
Jaslene-winner


It was poo pooed because nobody could believe Dionne and Jaslene would stay over Brittany, who was doing great at the time.

I got this off of the IMDB boards on April 4th as a spoiler.
Someone saw it on some other message board, apparently from someone in the know.

That looks like its going to turn out to be real now. I guess Naima can be happy as she's no longer going to carry around the worst winner tag that many have given her.

The list seems actually pretty real,even thougth that user migth have done that just for fun,it actually seems pretty rigth.Natasha and Renee migth change places,thougth.
