All of them are being mean to Isis(the transgendered one). Seems like Heather all over again.....

Melissa Ann

I do NOT like Clark, she has had the worst things to say about Isis so far!

I like Elina, her look is gorgeous, and Marjorie is sweet, she's just really inexperienced and can't even answer simple questions without getting flustered.

ETA: I think Isis is considered Transgender not Transsexual. I think she would be Transsexual if she had the replacement surgery.

Sharaun & Clark seem like the meanest so far.

I like Marjorie. She seems sweet. I like Sheena, too.


Yeah, sorry. That is what I meant to say.

Melissa Ann

Scratch that, we're both right!

From Wikipedia:

What do you think of the opening post?

ANTM has started already?! Can't believe I didn't realize...Now I'll have to play catch-up.

Just going by the pics, but Elina and Sheena look gorgeous.

Clark reminds me of Alicia Sacramone.

anyhoot, I'm actually watching!

MrღMrsStinsbatskys

I was watching this on and off last night, atm I don't know the girls yet that much so I won't be saying who my favorite is. But I do like some people.

I do not get all the hate directed at Isis unless it's just jealousy but Isis is by far one of may favorites so far. I also like Marjorie and Sheena. I'm so glad that Kacey girl was not picked cause she also seemed like a self-hating, confused person who responded by being hateful to others.

I hated all the cheesiness of the selection process but the actual contenders seem good.

Oh, I like Elina too.

ETA: Yes, Tyra I agree. If you want to be on ANTM stop coming with this, "I just want to learn" attitude. Pick up a $3.50 issue of Vogue and learn some designer and model names. Easiest homework EVER.

I see the resemblance a little bit there Michaela.

I'm not even going to lie, I was pretty embarrased watching this so yesterday. It was so just insanely ridiculous. Like the whole space thing? Embarrassing. I was like hiding my face when Tyra popped out of that tube thing. Yikes. This season just seems so whack.

I feel hesitant picking a favorite but so far I'm loving Hannah. She's such a doll.

Also, I don't think that the girls were being as mean to Isis as the show is portraying them to be. I mean...there were probably a few times that people talked about her like that and that is what was shown. The producers are obviously trying to create a storyline with all the girls hating on Isis for technically being a guy so they are probably blowing the whole thing out of proportion, making it a way bigger deal then it is just to fit what they want. Also, I don't like how the show is concentrating so much on Isis. It's not fair to the other girls and kind of making a spectacle out of Isis.

Melissa Ann

I didn't feel that the show was concentrating on Isis. But they gave their fair amount of coverage of her.

I think more so so people can understand her a little bit more.

I loved Tyra's hair. The sleek cut looked hot!

I also love how the first name called at judging will have their picture displayed in the house for the week, just to intimidate the other girls really!

stormy eyes

That just reminded me, I'm so glad that Marjorie was called first. She seems to be majorly lacking confidence and really needed something like that. I was happy for her.

I really like Marjorie.

Hannah seems to have a problem with Isis and the girls being so touchy. I can understand how she might feel that way. Doesn't she live in Alaska? LA....is a completely different place.

Hannah......I think she handled that the wrong way. She just walked out of the room. I really like Analeigh.

Melissa Ann

Hannah is a small town girl and isn't used to being around so many different personalities and cultures as she is, so when she makes a comment, she's not trying to be rude, she's trying to understand.

Like when she pushed Isis away from her in the pool, I don't think it was to be rude, but it did come across that way, and like she explained, Isis had simply moved into her personal space.

But Sheena was trying to explain that you have to worry about how you come across because she has not been around so many different types of people, some of her opinions and what she was taught come across as discriminatory or racist.

Hannah is very naive and she even said that herself during the premiere.

Also? We see the edited version. We don't know every single thing she said. I just think she didn't handle it in the best way. She ran from the room crying......
