Worst ANTM Winner Ever


That's right, I said it. I'm angry. I'm sure Teyona is a nice girl and everything, but ANTM winner she is not. I take that back, I have no indication that Tayona is a nice girl because she didn't really have a personality the entire series. Didn't get anything from her - nothing.

I will admit that she knew how to take some nice pictures. For example, this one is really lovely. Perhaps yellow is her color? On the whole, her pictures all looked similar, and honestly none of them blew me away. But she kept winning and winning week to week.

In person, a model Teyona is not. Take a look at the photo up at the top. That's her on the left with a huge, gummy smile and eyes that disappear. Her face is rather long and reminiscent of Egyptian art, and it only seems to work when Teyone is being photographed.

When we got down to the final two of Alison and Teyona (Aminat just couldn't take a picture), I thought maybe Alison had a chance. She figure out how to walk no the runway and her commercial was cute. Teyona forgot all the words, so again I thought maybe the season could end without me being too upset. After all, Celia (all the way on the right up top) did get sent home. Phew.

In the end, Teyona did win. Last season's winner McKey isn't the best and speaking her lines, but no one can dispute her looks. She really is gorgeous and has learned to come into her own beauty. I still have an issue with her posture, but baby steps.

The season on a whole was disappointing. The two pretty girls were sent home way too early, and we were left with normal girls that could sort of look pretty sometimes, or girls that were just weird. I understand Tyra is altering her made up vision of what America's Next Top Model is, but I still can't see how Teyona fits into that image in any way shape or form. I could say that I will never watch ANTM again, but that would be a lie. I'm anxious to see how the "short" season will go, and perhaps next Tyra will offer up a "fat" season with girls that all wear *gasp* a size 6.

Congrats to you, Teyona. I'm sorry I don't believe you deserve it at all. In my world, Alison is the winner. Good luck with your commercials that I never watch because ANTM is always DVRed in my house. At least Alison might have a chance at a real career now.
