The thing with Dick is really starting to disturb me to the point that I'm no longer enjoying the show. When Julie was questioning Jen tonight I so badly wanted Jen to blow the whole thing wide open. It's insulting to me that CBS is trying to make light of this just to keep an explosive personality on the show.

So is this the thread where we'd talk about America's Next Top Model, then?

Cause there are pictures of the new girls!

Apparently there is one plus size girl. She looks hot. Though not especially plus sized.

And one girl from Valparaiso, IN. Who, in her picture, I want to make wear a bra. If you're that young (and that skinny), they really shouldn't be that far down, sweetie...

To be perfectly honest, if that had been anybody but Tre, I would have been totally supportive of the boot. He was my baby, I wanted him to stay. I really thought that he could win it all. I hoped that his past strong work and his incredible potential would save him, but alas, no.

This. Exactly. But the judges have said that they can't really go on past performance.

I only saw it last night after getting spoiled accidently in here. I'm kind of glad I knew what was coming so I wasn't so anxious the whole time watching. I did hope that I'd misread here though.

ooh new ANTM!!!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

That ANTM "plus sized" girl doesn't even look plus sized for a model! It's supposed to be Sarah, right? (And I even buy the whole paradigm where "typical" sized models are many sizes smaller than actual typical people, so the same thing holds true for plus-size models.) The seem younger on average than previous seasons, don't they?

Where does it say one is plus sized?

And what's up with the girl from Boston's outfit!? So wrong. And they list her occupation as "College Graduate!"

I guess that means "unemployed?"

Yes. Although, if they've been filming all summer, they could have just started right after graduation, I guess.

I read somewhere else that it was Sarah. (fourfour?)

I've totally fallen behind on my fourfour reading! I need to catch up. LOVE HIM!!!

Most of those poor ANTM girls look busted. Which one was supposed to be plus size? It didn't seem like any of them really were.

Right now, I have a teeny bit of pre-like for the Dancer from Jersey City. She's cute. And I kinda like Ebony, although that chin is out of control.

well, if a model is a size 0, a plus size must be like a size 4 or gasp a 6!!
