@ ANTMLove : Awwww... She was getting a little a better though. This photo isn't "hoochie" at all. I know she did do some questionable poses during the shoot... but... still. This is way better than Elina's. I hope Sheena works it out post-show and proves the naysayers wrong.
Sheena was definitely beginning to grow on me but I think her elimination was completely fair. I think she has a great personality but I don't think she could ever be a top model. (I do like her face in this photo though)
ANTMlove and xTiFEh, I'll back you up on this. I was so sure Sheena would win and was hoping she wouldn't. With her gone, I actually think this is my favourite final five from any cycle. Even Elina, who is a bit stiff a times, is so photogenic that it barely matters.
As for Sheena improving - where, exactly? She was great in the CoverGirl commercial, but I actually think this is one of her weakest photos. There's no intensity in the face (though she does look very pretty), and the way she's raised her left hand makes it look like she's trying to find her equilibrium because the ship's rocking too much. It's not confident, and it's actually a little boring.
That said, I still liked Sheena a lot. But she was never as good as April.
I actually don't like her face here. I think it looks too soft and innocent considering the high fashion theme of the shoot. Her pose is kind of dead, and I have no clue what she's doing with her hand. I kind of liked Sheena, but it was her time to go. That being said, I thought her exit was so classy.
i'm on the fence about this one.. I kinda like the pic, and it is definitely an improvement. My concern was that Sheena would be pushed to the end, just to have an Asian winner, which I would not have agreed with. But I also think Elina could have gone home easily this week. She's definitely stiff, and though she's very photogenic, I do not consider her to be "modelesque", Sheena neither really. But I'd just would personally rather see more of Sheena instead of Elina.

Sheena is almost not improving, BUT Elina is getting bad!!! her first pictures were perfect and then she started to give this shitty pictures.
Honestly, I saw it coming when I looked at the photo that they chose for her. And its sad because I was behind Sheena 100%. But even I know when to put the bias aside to realize that it was not a good photo. A better personality did not save Sheena like it saved Joslyn weeks before. But Sheena bowed out VERY gracefully and like she said, she DID leave her mark and there will never be another Sheena, and she's right. I wish all the best to her.
Should have never been kept over Lauren Brie. What a waste of space. Thank goodness she is FINALLY out. I thought Tyra would keep her forever. Bye Bye, Shenna!
elina's improved on her control MUCH more than sheena's improved on her hoochie imo. elina let go 2 weeks ago during the Fiercee awards even though tyra said she didn't. and i liked her commercial last week, too.
I'm happy she's gone. She was starting to annoy me, and she wasn't inproving, in fact she was slipping backwars ever so slightly. I'd take Elina over Sheena any day.
I just noticed in this photo how large her head is compared to the rest of her body.
