| Cause Tyra loves a Black "Girl Next Door", she's really boring and her opinion of herself is way too high.

| Re: Atalya - Cycle 10 For all of you who are comparing Atalya to Saleisha: First of all, there will NEVER be another Saleisha, and I don't mean that in a good way! It's an insult to Atalya to compare the two lol. She has so much more potential than Saleisha and I don't think they look a THING alike. I actually think Atalya looks very high-fashion and so far all of her photos have been fierce! I actually like the second group shot, I think she looks softer in that photo, which is a good thing because it shows she's versatile. If I would compare her to anyone, it would be Ebony. I don't think her teeth are all that bad. Danielle's gap was definitely more distracting in my opinion. SHe seems confident which is good, but I'm not going to judge too harshly on just one video. |

| Actually I didn't really care about Saleisha winning, Saleisha didn't really bother me and I thought it was immature of people to react the way they did when she won, preselect or not. I don't hate Atalya, I like her on some level but I find her very boring compared to some of the other girls.

| Re: Atalya - Cycle 10 Atalya just doesn't do anything for me. Except remind me of Regina King.

| Re: Atalya - Cycle 10 Quote:
tyra said the exact same thing about saleisha that she did about atalya.. how they're both "the black girl next door" tyra loves to promote this "look" because she feels as though people always think of black girls as exotic, fierce, mean, and harsh. she wants people to think of them as typical all american girl next door types. personally, this bothers me. battling a stereotype with another stereotype is only a temporary solution, and if her plan works, in 20 years she'll be complaining about how all black girls are stereotyped as "sweet", and "passive", and "cute", and then she'll say ''Why can't a black girl be fierce or edgy or exotic? why do we always have to be sweet?" and so, the stereotype is still there, just in a different form. Tyra is battling ignorance with ignorance, and thus, is doing nothing to help solve the issue... | |

| Re: Atalya - Cycle 10 I need to see more pictures of her to convince me that she's high fashion. Right now her pictures are very clown-ish and amateur-ish. |
