Cover Girl Finally!

About to finish Cycle 13! YAAAAAAAAAAAAY!

1.-NICOLE
Perfect way to end Nicole's amazing performance! Nicole looks so sweet and fresh and friendly.  I love the slight hint of a smile and I think she really embodies Cover Girl here.

2.-LAURA
It's a pretty photo but something about this shot has always been off for me.  Like one thing is why did they bleach Laura's eyebrows for the shoot? I've always wondered that... But Laura just looks like she's a pretty girl who's hanging and waiting for her friends or something; it doesn't really look like an ad.

And then Nicole won! YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

And my elimination order!
14. Sundai (I love Sundai personality-wise but her photos were never really that great and that's really not good especially if you're so short.)
(I'm not eliminating anyone at the Wilhelmina meeting, I'll just have a double elimination at Lady Godiva)
13. Rachel (Her post show shows what she looks like when she tries to be slightly sexy and that's a fail.  She's got a lovely face but on the show she didn't reall know how to work her body correctly where it would look expensive rather than cheap.)
12. Bianca (The photo was a mess and she's been complaining way too much.  I do like Bianca a lot actually but she just didn't photograph as I would have loved her to.)
11. Courtney (I don't really think she would have done great here.  She had a great photo the first week but that was it...)
10. Lisa (I see her giving a pretty photo but nothing else)
9. Jennifer (This photo is horrible and Jennifer hasn't really been consistent with her photos.)
8. Ashley (I don't really see Ashley giving her all in this shoot TBH.)
7. Kara (I think that Kara would get really nervous here and probably wouldn't do so well.  Plus her body of work isn't as strong as the other girls.)
6. Laura (I love Laura but she's really the weakest of the 6.)
5. Lulu (Would probably have the weakest portfolio to this point.)
4. Rae (I love Rae and I think that she has done an amazing job but it's between her and Brittany and I think that Brittany would have given a much stronger photo.)
3. Brittany (Would probably look not as fresh as Nicole and Erin and they have been much stronger overall.)
2. Erin (Erin has done amazing but Nicole beats everyone this cycle.)
1. Nicole (One of the best ANTM winners for sure.  Love.)

Pele Godesses

1.-ERIN
The pose is probably the best of the bunch.  I love how elegant yet seductive Erin looks and the dress is fabulous.  The close up is lovely as well though the thing that has always bothered me is how stiff the neck is.

2.-NICOLE
I know that Nicole looks pregnant with that dress but that close up is just divine.

3.-JENNIFER
The eyes look wonky but she doesn't look horrible short and I love the drama in the background.

4.-LAURA
This is horrible.  The pose is really strange and doesn't help contort the dress in a flattering angle and it makes Laura look short as well.  The face isn't as horrible, but it doesn't really look like a model; just a really pretty girl.  I love the hair though.

And Tyra's call outs!

Seacreatures

1.-NICOLE
The only photo this week that is actually great.  It's a very different and quirky shot but it works in a good way.  Foxy looks very tall and her face looks actually lovely to me.

2.-JENNIFER
Those legs have always bothered me; they look very strange and she looks short.  Also her face looks very square-like but I love the emotion.

3.-ERIN
In the long shot, I love how ethereal Erin looks but in the close up, it looks like she can't breathe and is going up for oxygen.  Not Erin's best at all.

4.-LAURA
To um it up, Laura looks short and bland.

5.-SUNDAI
Sundai looks like she's drowning here but at least she looks 6'0" tall.  Bravo Sundai!

And Ty-Ty's call outs!

Hapa Photoshoot

1.-NICOLE
Pretty much perfection and by far my favorite Nicole photo.  The body is very graceful and elegant and the face is very serene.  I love how it kind of looks like Nicole is on an adventure looking for something.  Foxy rules.

2.-ERIN
The judges really did hate on Erin a lot. :( This photo is lovely and my favorite of her after her Make Me Tall. I love the hunch that Erin gives...it kind of reminds me of Marjorie of course which is amazing since I then picture her doing it and I just fall in love with the photo even more.  Erin looks like beautiful in the close up; like a real native member of a tribe.

3.-JENNIFER
I've always really loved this photo of Jennifer.  I think the reason why is because I adore the necklace so much.  Haha but Jennifer does look very beautiful here.  I love how you can tell there's something on her mind that's really bothering her.  The only thing is that the mouth is a little bit tense but it's still an awesome photo and my favorite of Jennifer's.

4.-BRITTANY
This photo is beautiful.  I love how regal and composed Brittany looks here.  The pose maybe what Tyra calls "modelling 101" and way too simple but personally I think that if Brittany did some crazy pose/face the photo would have been horrible.

5.-LAURA
It's a pretty photo of Laura but in the long she she looks a bit stupid with the pose and the expression.  However, in the close-up the face looks much better though I wish Laura had a different expression.

6.-SUNDAI
Blech Sundai looks about 4' here; hate the body here and I think that the clothes are nice but it's too overwhelming on Sundai.  The face is actually pretty though her eyes are a bit blank.  Not an absolutely horrible shot, but compared to what the other girls produced this shoot I'm very underwhelmed.

And Miss Banks' call outs!
