Some people haven't seen it yet.



I'm happy with the winner. Not ecstatic about her, but then again it's ANTM

Well, then it's not your fault since it aired in your area before someone else's. Eheh. It's only really considered a **spoiler** if you got the information through a leak.

I personally forgot to watch the finale.... in fact I didn't really watch many episodes this season, except that I wanted Nicole to win.

WHICH SHE DID!

=D

Sorry for Laura since she's very soft spoken and sweet.

Nicole's runway walk was awful omg lol

but I am still glad she won.

I don't think the actual finale has ever played a part in who wins. I didn't watch the finale tonight, but hearing that Nicole was awful and still won does not surprise me. Melrose, Chantal, Anya, etc were all better in the finale and lost. I don't mind that she won since she has a good look, but I hated her personality. So smug and annoying. Laura should've just won it, since she deserved it most because of her AMAZING personality. And it's not like the winner will actually be a real model.

Did anyone else feel that Tyra wasn't really...in to it tonight? She was like "ehhh".

I think this is one of the race occasions they chose a winner who earned it. It could of gone to either person, but they chose Nicole, which I think is awesome since she's been at the top of the pack the ENTIRE season. I could understand the pros and cons of each girl but I really truly feel that chose the right person. Nicole is pretty fierce.

I agree. I want a winner based on performance and potential, not some subjective criteria like personality.

I would have preferred an Erin-Nicole final 2 with either girl winning. The fact that Nicole win makes me happy. It also makes me think Wilhelmina had a lot of say in the winner.

Laura's features are too course and heavy for me; I am not a fan of her look and I am really glad she did not win.

I am curious to see how Nicole will do. She's young (18) and she's not even the shortest winner!

i agree. a much deserved win, however, i absolutely loved and adored laura. i can potentially see laura doing more commercial modeling as opposed to high fashion stuff, but then again, what ANTM alum actually does consistent high fashion stuff.

i was rooting for nicole since the beginning!

I'm sooo glad Nicole WON!!!!

^ I know! I started shrieking and clapping like a little girl!
She is the most high-fashion model to ever win ANTM!

Finally im happy with who won!!!!!

From the start i was a Nicole fan!!!

Now if only she can make it to the "real world" of fashion....

 

[soymilkfreak]

Nicole won! *starts parade*

She was my favorite right from the beginning, ever since promo pictures came out, followed by Erin, so Im very glad that she won
After 12 cycles Tyra finally gets it right
I love her look, I'm just scared that she'll end up not doing much because of her height...
and I actually liked her walk! There are tons of girls out there with busted walks and it's something she can work on.

Laura was touching. She was so cute and sweet, my heart broke a little when she started crying.

 

[lanvinray]

Finally, Tyra made the right decision Nicole deserves it!

 

[haksare]

Yay for Nicole! I find it funny that even the winner of a "petite" cycle isn't even petite to begin with

 

[shiny]

I actually cracked up when Nicole ran straight towards Tyra, without even a glance for poor crying Laura. That's going to make her even more popular with the other contestants (maybe it's just the editing, though).
Anyway, I'm glad she won, and I'm sure Laura has a great future ahead of her too. IMO she stands out much more on video (where you can see her awesome body language and lovely smile) than on photos.
