u never kno she might turn out like mckey...horrible poses in the beginning and then bam she rocks it!
mozelle   [Mar 06, 2009 at 08:24 AM]
you're definitely right juicyp! i agree with you Razz

She shouldn't have made in the top 13! Monique was 100% better! Tahlia has a fantastic face but her body proportions are just not model! SHe should have been sent home NOT the poor Isabella
Michelle&AmandaBabin   [Mar 06, 2009 at 11:52 AM]
She has a nice face for commercial, but too many things working against her for anything else. I liked Monique too, but had she made it, I think the judges would've pulled out the old "photographs old" excuse, which I'm already sensing in Celia's and [HOPEFULLY] Kortnie/Tahlia's near future.
I think Monique should've made it over any one of the unmodelesque girls, and if Tahlia gets a chance with 0 real potential for being scarred up, then Angelea should've been given a shot for having only 40$ in her pocket, sleeping in a bus and losing a daughter.

Ick. Not digging this one. But I think she can do better.
Glamorous   [Mar 06, 2009 at 05:15 PM]
She looks a lot pretty with hair straightened.
cheezcake555   [Mar 06, 2009 at 07:41 PM]
Ugh, Tahlia is not high-fashion at all.
Bella   [Mar 06, 2009 at 10:45 PM]
Horrible picture. I hope she goes next, she is really unmodelesque. They only kept her because of her sob story.
sionmaisley   [Mar 07, 2009 at 04:02 AM]
face is nice but the leg up is blah and it looks a little fake

What bothers me with Tahlia's "story" is that it's the major part of why she wants to be on the show. I think that's incredibly brave of her but a girl should go on the show to be a model. That's one thing I loved about Isis, she was on the show because she wanted to be a model and, yes, she was proud to represent transgenders but that wasn't her main reason for being there.

I don't think Tahlia is a model but I can understand what Tyra means by a designer booking her because of her scars. It's the fashion industry, it's all about art but the sad truth is, most designers will not book Tahlia because of her scars regardless of her modeling potential. Just look at Elina, the clients in Amsterdam didn't want to book her because her tattoos were a distraction. I'm not saying this is a good thing but like most of you I'm trying to be realistic.

Nevertheless Tahlia is a beautiful girl, inside and out and if she lost weight I think we'd see her bone structure a lot more which might convince me that she has some potential.

...OH YEAH! Let me just add, that Tahlia probably has a lot more potential than the 5'7 and under girls of Cycle 13!!!!!!

fail Sad face is .. ok imo. body doesn't look dynamic enough. she doesn't look like a model
eat me pretty   [Mar 07, 2009 at 03:13 PM]
i agree longtime fan. a designer wants a model to show off their clothes beautifully, not distract from their designs. i feel like tyra only picked her because of the burn thing. it's ridiculous because she would never get booked for anything. beautiful girl, but not a model. she can find another platform to share her story more effectively, one that actually makes sense.
longtimefan   [Mar 07, 2009 at 07:05 PM]
Well put ^
divalicious4   [Mar 08, 2009 at 12:18 PM]
worst of the week along with isabella and sandra. nice girl, but not every nice girl can be a model! I'm never going to be a supermodel no matter how sad a sob story I might have - I'm 5"2! Tyra needs to get that through her head
david18   [Mar 08, 2009 at 03:15 PM]
I deplore this girl. SEND. HER. HOME. Onto the picture, the body is almost fantastic, but she's not a model. Her body is hideous, and her face is lackluster. She looked beautiful on the runway, but she was being so petty and stupid about the outfit. No one (well, most people wouldn't prefer to) wants to buy their clothes off a person with scars. SEND. HER. HOME.
longtimefan   [Mar 09, 2009 at 03:34 AM]
If there was a girl on topmodel with some KILLER modeling potential, a client would be willing to look past her scars but Tahlia doesn't have the look or the talent. Hopefully she's next to go.

Also, All-ANTM seems a little quiet... has anyone else noticed. Perhaps many have boycotted ANTM?
Michelle&AmandaBabin   [Mar 09, 2009 at 11:58 AM]
She should NOT be in a modeling competition, and I agree with David about the outfit. The least she could do was see it coming.
I think she should've been sent home, and I hope she will be, because she is very sweet, but not a model. at all.
Dustin   [Mar 09, 2009 at 07:59 PM]
She looks 10 in this shot. I actually want to see how far she went in the competition. HOPEFULLY, if the judges did keep her( I know she will be in the bottom 2 in one of these eps, obviously), it was for a good, honest reason over the eliminated girl.
david18   [Mar 10, 2009 at 08:39 AM]
ANY of the girls in this cycle have more potential than her. ANY. Including some of the girls from casting. And those girls were BUSTED.
atomicblue   [Mar 11, 2009 at 12:41 AM]
Although I disagree with Tahlia being in the competition in the first place, this is a decent shot and not enough to send her home for.
