--- Pack said that Banks had been the only judge who had initially supported her during her time on the show. However, she alleged that judge Paulina Porizkova was the exact opposite and had never given her a chance in the competition under the guise of replicating the harsh realities of the modeling industry.
"Paulina did not support me and I think never really liked me, and she told Tyra [that] my face was ugly. She was quite harsh," Pack told Reality TV World. "I know that they say that the modeling world is a mean industry, it's not. It's really not... To say 'You're ugly,' that just doesn't happen, it really doesn't. That's just for entertainment purposes, I really didn't enjoy hearing that." ---
I really dont think her portfolio is boring. Looking through it, I noticed that pretty much every picture is a different expression. Even her worst picture for me (NY tourist) has a decent expression, and she still looks like a model.
Tyra knew that Natalie was telling the truth, Tyra just got the shits because natalie seemed to answer back and by this Tyra overpowered her to make her shut up and its clear she's playing favourites! It should be called Tyra Next Favourite Role Model
reminds me of how they voted margarie off for just standing there in her windmill shot, even though it was the best photo of the bunch. Sometimes just sitting or standing can create a better effect than an exaggerated pose. This is a great shot

^WORK! *o*. But she wasn't eliminating for standing there, she was eliminated for losing her nerves and doing the shoot hungover.
This season for me is totally cliche, and though I watched this episode out of boredom, but Tyra eliminating Natalie is beyond messed up!She and Allison should've been in the final 2, with Natalie winning.
Aminat should have gone home this week. this picture is stunning. even though she went home she will still be successfull because she got signed with Ford Models anyways.
More like hella overrated, IMO. This isn't a bad picture, its better than a couple of the other ones, but it's nothing special. I think thats why she went home because she's nothing special, none of her pictures were outstanding, none were bad, but none were outstanding, and every other girl left had something she didn't have. granted she has a hell of a lot more potential than Aminat, she still wasn't "robbed". Don't kill me, its just my opinion.
^^Not killing you for your opinion, I respect your right . Still, mine is that some of Nat's pictures WERE outstanding - Ellis Island and Ciara IMO. I also liked her lighting and Carmen Miranda a LOT, while her commercial was all right, and her other pictures were okay to good. None were bad, four out of seven were great to fantastic, plus one of the best walks, best body, great model look etc. She's a package and that Aminat and Fo outlasted her is injustice (all IMO! If you disagree, totally OK )

^Agree, Natalie was the most robbed contestant of the cycle
