Well... I guess it's time for a new host anyway.

YES!
sarah is such a bad host, she's the main reason why i don't watch the show this season, i can't stand her!
and this situation with the winner is just HILARIOUS! i'm dying! lmfao

 

[Hoother]

So how do we know that she gets a trip to New York and $25 000? Was it mentioned on the show?

 

[*Bianca*]

it was mentioned in the herald sun
the article is posted already in this thread

 

[Style Savvy]

There's also a rumor that Kelsey will get a cover also.

 

[Hoother]

Chances are Kelsey will be signed with Priscillas or Chic, so I guess it's like she also won anyway.

Definitely Priscillas. Esp. if they are going to pay for her to see Elite (Priscilla's partner agency).

Chantal and Brittney are already confirmed to be with Priscillas and I think Ashton has been signed as well. It's likely most of them will be.

Kelsey has sorta come out as a winner (the stuff up a blessing in disguise)
Money, possible cover/editorial, all expenese trip to NY.....

Feel a little sorry for Sophie, who didn't get anything. And it does feel unfair to Amanda.... even though Kelsey's is beautiful, the cover really should be Amanda's and hers alone.

I agree 100%

Good to see they preferred Kelsey, and 'covers' kinda hints at dual covers so yeah. I guess it's not Amanda's fault that she was favoured through the competition and then all this happened at the finale, so I guess it's fair that she should get the cover, but I do hope Kelsey's shot at least gets published as part of an ed or even as the contents page.

Kelsey's cover in better quality:

Kelsey's cover is definitely the best!
Poor girl!

 

[TianSoFine]

What a fail. I'm happy for both girls, though. I guess it's almost like they both won.

 

[1FashionVictim]

I think they've gone completely overboard giving Kelsey all this compensation for being wrongly announced winner, it's almost like she actually is the winner. If I was Amanda I'd be seething, and if I was Sophie I'd be completely scunnered because she received nothing but 3rd place.

 

[TianSoFine]

It seems almost like Kelsey was the planned winner and it just so happened that Amanda got more votes. I would have preferred Kelsey to win, but I think $25,000 is an awful lot for a compensation prize. A few pages back, it was said that Harper's Bazaar would want their favourite girl to win. I don't think they went overboard with it (because I think the 2 girls both deserved to win), but I do think that there was something going on.

 

[Street_a_Licious]

so bummed, but i do hope we'll get to see some pics of Kelsey from HB, since she was the only one during the photoshoot to really work the camera. she was really only lacking in height. still standing by my choice of Kelsey, Joanna and Jessica.

Kelsey is also the one who booked the most 'real jobs' from the whole show, so she should be fine, especially with the extra $25k. here's hope to see her internationally!

btw, the Harper's fashion editor came across as a total b*tch. didn't like her one bit!

yeah, she did... so when she was in total awe about Kelsey taking one great picture after another, i was totally like 'IN YOUR FACE B!TCH! IN! YOUR! FACE!'

 

[|PerfectTonight|]

Indeed, she was eating her words!:lol

Amanda still has the Ford Fiesta and the Levis campaign all by herself, Kelsey just got what she worked hard for during the show. Even when she deserved the credit, she was bashed by Alex Perry. I guess karma is a b*tch!

 

[TianSoFine]

So I've allowed myself to be spoiled (because I don't want to have a heart attack when I watch it).

Does anyone have the link to where I can watch the finale?

 

[|PerfectTonight|]

Apparently they are going to split the cover of the magazine. In the end there were only 3 votes that separate the two girls. The network wanted Amanda to win so they let the voting to continue longer than planned. Doggy or what! Here's a video;

Kelsey baby you deserved it! Such a fake, fake fiasco season. Not even funny!

 

[TianSoFine]

I find it hilarious how the interviewer was openly expressing his support for Kelsey. I'm glad Kelsey also got a cover, her shot is great.
