America's Next Top Model

[rattlerbrat]

"Tifanny, get back here and apologize to the hat!" Wait, wrong season...

Doesn't matter, though. Shut up, Tyra. She seems to only like her black models when they're sobbing hysterically and thanking her just for touching the hem of Tyra's garmet.

Tiffany actually said this? If so, I'm surprised Tyrant didn't edit it out. I cant wait to read Tiffany's post-interviews. Hopefully she wont cop out and say 'I love Miss Tyra Banks 'cuz you know we look alike!'

No, she sort of insinuated it before Tyra exploded on her and her reactions directly after. Then they ended it with Tiffany saying some sort of "Tyra's great!" cop-out voiceover or something.

Tyra' mad because she had Tiffany all lined up to be the humanity story, the little model that could bust out of poverty and almost make it in the modelling world.

(No way Tiffany was going to be ANTM, but IMO she would have been at least Final Three.)

But Tiff wouldn't play the game.

Tyra may have been overreacting, but she did give Tiffany Beerweave a second chance. It also sounded like Tyra paid for anger management courses for her?

So... Tyra's anger was probably more with herself for believing Tiffany would change and magically become Tyra v2.0. When Tiffany gave up, Tyra saw all of her time, money and energy wasted, so we saw that hilarious mental breakdown.

I can't wait until next week, when we'll see the 'fallout' of Tyra's histrionics and the double-elimination.

I wonder how much of Tyra's rant was rehearsed, I mean she did sneak a peek into the camera. All the cringe inducing yelling aside, way to shake things up with a double elimination.

Can someone tell me how the hell Christina keeps sliding through each week on crappy pictures?

I'm torn on the tiffany tyra thing.

Tyra was a bit too much with it...BUT...I do think she had a point (I definitely have to go shower after this post). Tiffers did have this "i'm from the hood, can't do nothing, won't be nothin'" attitude when SO many people cheered her on, supported her, did without, etc.
Tiff really seems to respond to someone yelling at her.
They didn't have to give her a second chance and I do think America was rooting for Tiffany.

BUT, just becaause Tiffany didn't give the TV ready dramatic cry at the end and tried to walk out with some shred of dignity doesn't mean that she was ungrateful. I thought she was putting on a good face for the others.

Double-fault.

In this interview Tiffany says that Tyra did not pay for her anger management, her mom did.

Gloworm, I definitely agree with you on both points. Still, I come down harder on Tyra, because I thought it was ridiculous for her to get upset because Tiffany wasn't upset enough at that moment in time. I know that when I'm upset, I'll often try to blow it off while I'm in front of people. It doesn't mean I'm not upset, though. I'm just trying to save face. Why on earth should two very different people (Tiffany and Rebecca) have the same reaction? Just because Tiffany wasn't crying didn't mean she didn't want to win. Bah!

But yeah, I do think Tiffany was her own worst enemy and set herself up to fail.

Another Tiffany Interview

I thought it was interesting that she wants to stay in contact with Brandy, Lluvy, and Rebecca, but not Michelle.

I thought Tyra overreacted like crazy. So Tiffany made a couple of jokes after she got the boot-big deal. Everybody deals with disapointment in their own way. Personally, I would rather die than cry on t.v., and if I were in Tiffany's position I probably would have done the same thing. Doesn't mean I wouldn't have been upset, though.

I am glad to see Rebecca go, because I hated her for being such a snob when she won the free shoes. I know, we all have our moments, but she was so ridiculous, with her "Piddly little salegirl, please get fabulous ol' me another expensive shoe, mmkay?" attitude. Pfft. Twit.

On the plus side: it was fun listening to the girls mess up their cockney english accents. I laughed at Michelle the most. Four years of training in drama?! Was she alseep the entire time? The girl couldn't act to save her life.
