America's Next Top Model All-Stars Finale

Finally, the All-Star winner was revealed in last night's finale of America's Next Top Model All-Stars. The All Star with the brand "Daring" and from cycle 5 Lisa D'Amato won the 17th cycle of ANTM. Although Lisa won the competition this was not the Trending topic on social networking sites and in the "Top Model Land", it's the sudden disqualification of Angelea Preston. The network needs to re-shot the finale because if it's not they should announced the winner in Crete, Greece, but still CW has the answer, they disqualified Angelea after they wrapped up the season.

Here is a statement from CW: "After production wrapped on the current cycle of America's Next Top Model, we learned information that made Angelea ineligible and she was subsequently disqualified from the competition. As a result, new scenes were filmed to address this for the audience during the finale."

Could this confirm the rumors that Angelea was originally declared as the winner? And she bragged about it in media or in social networking sites that lead to her disqualification? Read the CW statement again "...that made Angelea ineligible...", ineligible of what? Winning? I think so because if not what's the need to re-shot? Other rumor has it that Angelea was supposed to be in the re-shot but didn't show up. Something is really wierd with this finale, Tyra and co. should explain further for the fans of ANTM, just like me.

All in all, the finale was a blast! The All Stars had a Michael Cinco (Pinoy Pride!) runway show and they have to model underwater, then rise out of the water to signify their "birth as a goddess", then wear harness then work the runway while their recorded song is playing. They did the Vogue Italia test shots and the Cover Girl ads. I agree that Lisa matured as a model and not the "Girl Who Peed In A Diaper" model anymore, but Angelea has an inspiring story and her persistence helped her work that Michael Cinco runway show, on the other hand Allison has the biggest fan base of all the contestant and she really fits in Vogue Italia. Anyway congratulations to La Puchineta and I will wait for her Vogue spread, Beauty In Vogue cover, her guesting in Extra, her own brand of perfume, The Express campaign plus her IMG portfolio. This is so far the most scandalous Top Model finale ever! What do you think? To see the All-Stars full Portfolio CLICK HERE!!!

ANTM All-Stars Nikos Papadopoulos Photos

Can you say pot ledom in Greek? The All Stars's international destination this cycle is Greece! What I liked about this episode is that it featured Filipino talents. First is Michael Cinco who had a one on one with the girls to asked about their design suggestions for a potential finale gown. Does it mean that the final two will walk in a Michael Cinco fashion show? That's huge! Next is that the girls had a photo shoot wearing Bench Body underwears where in one of the girls refuse to pose in lingerie. Lastly, Filipina model Georgina Wilson styled the girls for this photo shoot. Isn't that amazing? Renowned photographer Nikos Papadopoulos shot the girls and he also joined the Tyra, Andre and Nigel in the panel, in the end the "Trustworthy" All Star went home.

America's Next Top Model Cycle 16-"Lana Marks" Episode

Four reasons why this episode is so fierce!! First, it's time for Go-sees! The girls need to use different Fashion Archetypes in their go-sees, who book the most and who just played it safe? Second is Morocco, Tyra revealed that this season, the international destination will be Morocco but out of six, only five will continue on after this episode. Third is Michael Cinco! He is a high fashion designer who is also a Filipino! He dressed the girls during the eco-friendly photo shoot in a garbage dump site with photographer Nigel Barker. And lastly, Famous handbag and accessories designer Lana Marks (above photo with Tyra) is this episode's guest judge. She also chose the winner for the go-see challenge.The challenge winner won an exact replica of a clutch used by Angelina Jolie. I was sad about the elimination although I already guessed that she is the next to be eliminated, but still it is sad to see her go. Next week, see you in Morocco as America's Next Top Model Cycle 16 is near to it's finale! To see the girls full portfolio tweet me, follow me HERE!!!

Molly really needs to be less bitchy about everything, or she will be eliminated next!

Kasia is ethereal in this shot.

Sweet and girly Jaclyn delivered a nice pose.

I think the judges are now betting on Alexandria to win this cycle.

Hannah is fierce and high fashion but she needs more confidence all the way to win over Alexandria!
