Odds are that if she had never called him he may not have ever seen the particular issue.

Something seems fishy about the whole thing. That conversation between Perry and Tyson was canned and involved the worst acting I've seen in a long time. Tyson looked like he was ready to crack up throughout the whole thing, and Perry's shocked reactions looked totally fake.

I'm just not buying it. There's something going on that's not above board. I don't know if they're trying to generate sympathy for Perry so that he'll win or what the deal is, but it all feels very strange to me.

I agree. Tysons lack of acting ability and canned pep talk destroyed the illusion that this was anywhere near real. Manufactured drama for drama's sake is what I see.

I agree. The tabloid drama did not make any sense and why did she say "This will affect you..." It's a bit staged, a little bit too staged. Tyson, take acting lessons dear, or don't act.

I can't wait for Thursday night so I can cheer when Shannon is kicked out. She and her girl friend Holly bad mouth the boys much more than the boys badmouth them. I guess that the guys just have a life and the girls don't. Then poor Holly will have to keep her door locked so that the big bad boys don't get her. I loved it when the judge said that if Holly were his model, he would tell her to show the client her book (she does photograph really well) before she opened her mouth because she has such a terrible voice. Vocal Coaches for everyone!!!

It would be hilarious if Shannon actually outlasted Ronnie with this vote because I'm sure Ronnie doesn't expect to be going anywhere. To me, he seems way more arrogant and full of himself than Shannon is. Of course, Shannon will leave though. If you have people like Ben, who clearly has done consistently terrible, survive, then there really is no point to think that this is anything more than a popularity contest.

I don't think Ronnie is arrogant. He's been told his look is limited and then appeared in the bottom 3 so many times that he should know he's not a shoe-in. I love Ronnie. I think he's gorgeous, educated, articulate, personable, and compassionate. I think Shannon did get a little cocky; bad timing on her part, though.

Still, I like Shannon, too, and I think she is a fabulous model. I think it kind of stinks that Shannon can have one bad week and be put up for elimination and that Ben, who has had one good week, can be safe and stroll into the final 4. There are problems with this system, and I think it needs to be revised.

Maybe a combination voting process between the audience and judges simlar to Dancing with the Stars (although the voting process on that show also needs an overhaul.

I agree. I think if they do this show next year they are going to fine-tune a LOT of things.

I'm not going to lie, Shannon had a VERY nasty week. Ronnie has the ability to make people feel at ease and bring out the best in them (to his own detriment, at times) and watching him with Shannon this week was very frustrating because she was not giving back one inch and it showed in the photographs. Does she deserve to go home her first time in the bottom (in comparison to Ronnie, who practically LIVED in the bottom 3 at one point)? I don't think so, but that's how it's probably going to play out, and it's sad. I like Ben and I'm glad he did a lot better this week but I think it's a shame he's still there when others who were doing better left before him.

ive a feeling shannon will be kicked out & its going to be sad. these votes are lame. ronnie is such a big cry baby waste of space.

See now, it's all about differences of opinion. I happen to think Ronnie is the most attractive of the remaining guys. He's the only one there I would make silly girl daydreams about being my boyfriend *laugh* If he dropped a few pounds he could really edge it up. I used to think Shannon was Ok.. but after watching her closely for weeks, just just too tall for runway.. and frankly her face is really starting to irritate me, instead of growing on me like I would want a face I would be seeing all over to do. Perhaps there are just more people voting who feel like I do.

I like Holly and I think we will have the old Holly back when that evil doer, I am so perfect, Shannon goes home. As I hope she does.

Ronnie is a teen dream hearthrob to me and he won't win, but I would be sad if he was sent home.

Tyson cannot act. He should not attempt to act. He looks adorable and yummy, but only until he opens his mouth and sounds silly. WHY CAN'T HE BE PERFECT?? It's not fair.
