^Yes, models are basically glorified and glamorized salespeople. You see them with the product being advertised in order to sell them and not because people are supposed to worship them for their beauty or anything.
sam'sboyfriend, I've been wondering for a while, but have finally come to the conclusion that you are not terribly knowledgable when it comes to the fashion industry, and as much as I would like to banter mindlessly with you about facts, I feel nothing intelligent is usually reached through the petty arguments, and I get about as much legitamite fashion intellect from my conversations with you as I would with a parrot. Scratch that, make that a dead parrot. Without a head. Anyway, take this as an invitation to never respond to my comments again. It is a waste of my time and effort. Thank you.
@david18: You have made your point about being knowledgeable about the fashion industry. But the parrot comment is not necessary. We can all have healthy and intelligent discussions and debates without the need to throw out heavy personal insults toward one another.
? The parrot line is simply stressing the fact that I can't agree with him. At least jesse is somewhat open-minded and listens to reason. I'm not running around spewing "OMG! Anyone who isn't a size 2 should drop dead!" I'm very open-minded, however, I state it "like it is". I'm not going to say "Designers shouldn't be lazy" or something like that. It would be hell to make 15+ custom garments. I'm NOT going to pretend that it's something easy. There's nothing wrong with that.
@Rf: That's your opinion, and you're entitled to it. But my opinion is that you're wrong.
I will admit I am new to the fashion industry but my comments are barely based ont he fashion industry it is based on the fact that most of us spend majority of our time on this website, and every day you and your friends rag about Whitney. If she is not that important to you why do you bother to comment. Just ignore it. Or is that too hard. And honestly no one up here is an editor in chief for Vouge, so you can shut up. You are right nothing is reached through the petty arguments because nothing can bgo through that thick head of yours. If youdon't like just shut up.
@david18: You don't expect everyone to "listen to reason." But all the same, you can do better in stating the facts of the matter instead of saying someone's ignorant or a dead parrot. Obviously, comments like that would rouse more and more animosity and this will never end.
You are smart david18, no doubt. I get what you mean by the parrot thing, but to add that the parrot is dead and without a head. Was that really necessary?
This is one of the best CG shots in my opinion. Looking at that fight it was so stupid. I fought more for whitney when my favorite contestant was Samanatha
Its the mouth that ruins it for me... She's catching flies ... But she sold the product nicely.
As for the whole plus-sized in the industry arguement, I don't really care, but one thing-
@Sam's, David and his friends have better things to do than rant on about Whitney all day. That's all I wanted to say.

Paparazzi - Dominique
CG - Anya
^Totally. Even Jade too IMO.
Then again, the CGs that cycle were shockingly strong
And if you go up in this page, you'll catch a glimpse of me as a Whitney fan. I SAID SHE DESERVED THE WIN!
^I think she could've given us a strong CG, but her age would've been her downfall at this stage of the competition. I'm glad she's defying the odds and still modeling at 28(?), though
I did NOT realize she was older than Elyse. On the show, she looked 20-ish
I have nothing against Whitney winning that cycle but I was still shocked when Anya lost to her (even though I kinda expected Whitney to win) because girl has a much better and more versatile portfolio. Out of all the plus size that entered ANTM, I think Diana had the most beautiful face.
^I wasn't shocked at all. Especially after CariDee and Saleisha. I think Whitney was pretty, but I think there were girls this cycle that were alot better all around, like Katarzyna, Anya, Aimee, Claire, Fatima... As for the plus-sized winner, I vote Diane, because C5 lacked potential, the only interesting faces being[IMO] - Diane, Ashley, Kim(She was kinda big, though), Sarah, Cassandra, heck even Nicole, and that's probably it.
Either way, I think Diane, Diana, Anna, Toccara, Sarah, even Whitney C, would've been better. Well maybe not WC.... I think Thompson has more potential and better pictures than her TBH, and they were both fake IMO.
@Rf: That's your opinion, and you're entitled to it. But my opinion is that you're wrong.
Regardless of any of this, this is getting pointless. MOVING ON.
