BEST PHOTOS- jenah, heather
BEST WALK- jenah
BEST HEIGHT- bianca 5'11''
BEST LOOK- heather, jenah, lisa
MOST ENDEERING- heather
MOST IMPROVED PHOTOS- bianca
MOST IMPROVED WALK- heather
MOST KNOWLEDGABLE- jenah

This is all just your opinion. We all know Heathers walk sucked so she couldn't have won. I love Jenah to bits but she couldn't do commercial work to save a life. Chantal was just...blah. Lisa was soooooo insecure and she just lost that personality she had at the begining of the competition. Hmmm, who's left? Bianca and Saleisha. Saleisha is obviously better than Bianca. Also, Saleisha definately had the best walk, presence and personality, imo.

Her walk didnt suit the final runway at all, she always look so urban while the designs were suppose to be like art. Someone like Heather or Jenah wouldve been stunning on that runway

Jenah can't do commercial work? What do you call that gorgeous Covergirl shot?

Exactly! Who would ever buy a product endorsed by Saleisha. Tyra should retire and let someone else host. She no longer knows what the industry is looking for anymore

no this is not just my opinion. this is the cold hard facts of this failure of a cycle. Saleisha has no bone structure, horrible proportions and a mediocre portfolio... and she won cause she had a great personality.... well news flash, a great personality can only get you so far in the modeling industry, you also have to be able to deliver

She should change the show's title to America's Next Top Spokemodel or Commercial Model. Saleisha is soooo not a top model (high fashion-wise). I know that the show has been criticised badly for hardly producing any top model despite it's title but proclaiming Saleisha as the winner just took the show waaaaay towards the opposite direction and has given Tyra's detractors ammunition.

That's true and even having a lot of fans will not determine if you will be successful or not. Just ask Kahlen or Shandi. I am just waiting for the post-show work to begin. I haven't been this anxious for that to happen since Cycle 7.

At the end they didn't even try to pretend that Saleisha was high fashion. They were like "oh the two most commercial girls" while J tried to say that Chantal could be high fashion. The only argument against her came from Nigel saying she wasn't high fashion. So why does that mean Saleisha wins? Because they're both commercial and Saleisha is a better commercial model? Why the hell did you keep those two then? Sigh....I didn't understand a single elimination since Sarah.

Yeah, a lot of the new upcoming models have zero personalities. Some like Hye Park and Emma Pei are said to be too much of a diva. Only a handful have great personalities like Coco Rocha. I can't imagine Saleisha getting booked for a fashion show for Philip Lim 3.1. At least Jaslene was featured in COACD which says a lot of her potential. And Jenah, I can see her walking for high profile runway shows or Prada campaigns.

That's why they should just have cycles with just HF girls and other with just commercial girls. Sarah and maybe Lisa's was the only eliminations I had problems with.
