Ditto. It's been stated numerous time that the casting directors were aware of the Wendy's commercial and cleared it as being okay. What makes Saleisha a suspicious winner are her connections to Tyra.

I think because we've been acutely aware of Saleisha's numerous ins with Ms. Banks, her success on the show seemed a lot fishier. Most of the girls have said that they saw no apparent favoritism towards Saleisha and thought that she worked hard and deserved the win. I guarantee if nobody knew about her past with Tyra or her previous modeling experiences, Saleisha winning with her same performance would be a lot less upsetting.

What did Saleisha do on ANTM C6?

After the makeovers in cycle 6, the girls were brought to a fashion show, where after watching the runway performance, they were brought backstage to choose from the available outfits a look that best fit their personal style.

Guess who one of the models on the runway was. Just guess.

TBH, I wonder if people would really care as much if Tyra hadn't known Saleisha before the show.

I personally wouldn't. I would still think Saleisha was a lackluster winner and that Chantal and Jenah were better choices, but if Saleisha had no connections to Tyra, I would have simply considered it another weird lapse in judgment on the judges' part, whine for a day or so, and then get on with my life.

Modelling was her dream and she was offered to do it, how would you all respond if your dream was offered to you? Yeah you all gonna say "Oh thou art too holy, I shall not deserve something like that" yeah whatever, we all know you all would jump at the chance. Stop blaming Saleisha because she got her dreams.

I agree, if ANTM lead Saleisha to believe everything was ok for her to enter why would she say no?

There was at least one other, can't remember her name, but she was very tall, over 6', short blond hair, never even considered modeling. She was scouted in a mall.

I wouldn't care that Saliesha won if she didnt know Tyra before the show.
I have a problem with Tyra using ANTM to get modelling contracts for her friends/aquatences.

They need to know the fans arent stupid.

I agree. I asked myself several times over the season, "Does Ty-Ty really think the fans are that stupid?" I feel a little insulted by it.
