Pre-Cycle Speculation

July 26, 2008 at 9:15 pm | In Uncategorized | 12 Comments

With a little less than a month until the competitors will be announced, it’s time for speculation to begin!

I’m guessing there will be 14 girls again, just so that they can throw in a “controversial” double elimination or have a contestant quit or be disqualified or something.  Because Tyra knows we would never expect something like that.

As far as the winners go, I know there are theories of patterns out there… here’s just a few:

The “Rotating Race” Pattern
c1 Adrianne – white
c2 Yoanna – mixed (part Mexican)
c3 Eva – black

c4 Naima – mixed (part African)
c5 Nicole – white
c6 Danielle – black

c7 CariDee – white
c8 Jaslene – Latina
c9 Saleisha – black

c10 Whitney – white
c11 [probably mixed, other non-white/non-black minority]
The “You, Too, Can be a Model!” Pattern
c1 Adrianne – “anyone can become a model!”
c2 Yoanna – “even girls who struggled with their weight can become models!”
c3 Eva – “even girls that are short can become models!”
c4 Naima – “even girls that aren’t ‘girly-girls’ can become models!”
c5 Nicole – “even girls that everyone else overlooks can become models”!
c6 Danielle – “even girls with bad teeth and unintelligible accents can become models!”
c7 Caridee – “yeah… I suppose… even blondes can become models…”
c8 Jaslene – “even if you are rejected at first, you can go on to become a model!”
c9 Saleisha – “even if you have no modeling skills whatsoever, if you know the right people, you can become a model!”
c10 Whitney – “even if you eat Ho-Hos, you can become a model!”
c11 ["even if you're too tall/even if you have a chronic disease/even if you're a mother/even if you were born in severe poverty... you can go on to become a model!"]
The “Let’s Pick Someone ‘Different’ This Time” Pattern
c1 Adrianne – first winner
c2 Yoanna – first “overcoming hardships” winner
c3 Eva – first “mean girl”/black winner
c4 Naima – first “edgy” winner
c5 Nicole – first “girly” winner
c6 Danielle – ?
c7 Caridee – first blonde winner
c8 Jaslene – first Latina winner
c9 Saleisha – first “commercial” winner
c10 Whitney – first plus-sized winner
c11 [first redhead/Asian/Eastern European? winner]

Any other patterns you’ve seen?  Any other speculation about who will be in this cycle?  About who will be the winner?

Real or Fake?

So, this video has been circulating for awhile now, and I still haven’t been able to confirm where it came from, and though there are those that claim it is an official promo, the source is still rather sketchy, and the video somewhat poor quality (though I wouldn’t put it past CW)

What’s your vote?  Real?  Or fake?

Casting Call!

Are there any possible ANTMers among this group of wannabes? (LINK)

I’m seeing very few…

Maybe?  And there were a few more that looked like they might be model-esque, but were ridiculously tall (over 6′3″!)

Thoughts?
