America's Next Top Model Cycle 11

Here’s a peak at America’s Next Top Airbrush Victim

taxidermia download watch the objective online Model Cycle 11. Naturally you can’t make out the contestants’ faces because of the blinding airbrush technique. And we don’t see Tyra in the photo, only an airbrushed facsimile. Oh wait, there she is, doing the oh so zen’d out 70s yoga pose front and center. What. Did. They. Do. To. Her. Face. Yes, we’re aware that using one word sentences for emphasis is soooo 2007 but so is blogging in first person plural and you don’t see us making that a fond memory.

Next season we’re going on strike unless the only person on the poster is noted fashion photographer Nigel Barker. In fact unless Nigel plays the host, the runway coach, the jaded former supermodel (first or otherwise) and all of the contestants, we’re just not going to watch.

For now though we’ll suffer through the unrecognizable wannabe Oprah that is Tyra Banks surrounded by her minions vying for yet another unremarkable career as America’s Next Marginally Successful Model. In case you’re planning on watching, Cycle 11 begins September 3rd on the Gossip Girl Channel er we mean the CW network.

Oh goodness, her face looks so different? I didn’t even realize we were on season 11!!! I get confused when it is on ALL the time, and then on VH1, etc too. hmmm…can’t wait

The Hippie theme promotional poster is interesting. It seems like they have some very nice talent this year. Maybe its even worth a few looks.

I can’t wait to turn the channel on this one. I’d be more interested in America’s top actor or America’s top eyebrow plucker. I am so tired of Tyra.

Well, i don’t really follow models, or watch much about them, but why do all that airbrushing when they are meant to be naturally beautiful. Not only do they airbrush, but have piles and piles of make up on. I bet they all look entirely different! I studied photography at college and am quite nifty in photoshop, but i would rather start off with a good photo and make some tweaks, knowing i am a good photographer.

I can’t wait, I love Tyra and her shows.

Watching this would be torture. There’s got to be something better on tv this fall in this time slot.

I’ll pass thank you. I am sick of Tyra. PLus never really liked the show anyway.

I really don’t like to watch this show ever since. But my sister, she likes it! I don’t know why.

wish i could see the show at least from cable TV

August 23, 2008 @ 8:38 am

i feel exactly the same way about tyra. i really did try to like this show, as i like watching the process of creating fashion photography, but really, nigel’s the only one i can stand (and maybe twiggy). i feel like tyra stuffed the show with her peons. :(

which is why i’m glad ‘make me a supermodel’ provides for me a more interesting alternative. :)

And what’s up with one arm being much lighter than the other? Also, where’s the “I’m the world’s first supermodel because I said so” woman?

Comment by Spore

That just looks… weird… yeah, I don’t think I’ll be watching that.

It seems that these days, reality tv shows are really where the big money is. What happen to great sitcoms?

To be honest, I was once a diehard fan of this ANTM series, but I started to lost my interest on it, once the series became more and more boring than before…

Sorry, Tyra. I think I need to say “Pass” to the ANTM…

Well, I don’t think if I would be interested in this top model Tv Program.Matt is right.. there are lot of better show in this time slot.

LOL, I don’t know about the move, but I definitely think the poster is really cool! Nice post and great blog, it’s a good read and I will definitely subscribe to your feed.

Nowadays, This also happens in Argentina. The reality show has come more important that other tv´s products. I dont think so.. (i don´t watch them) But the rating (in fact, how many people watching tv)seems to be the only important thing…

Ha ha, nice post.. well i like Tyra and some time not at all, but ma sis she is mad over her.. anyway hoping to watch the show.

I’m starting to get sick of Tyra. None these girls go on to have successful modeling careers. The CW network is trash anyway.

Comment by Misa

August 28, 2008 @ 7:46 pm

I love tyra, I did not recognized her in the picture, her faced is different..

Comment by Maria

August 29, 2008 @ 2:48 am

Wow, this is 11th season? And what are the names of ten previous girls? I’m not too much in modelworld but as it is written in the article they’re “Marginally Successful Models” as it seems to me.
But I like the poster ant the idea.

Comment by Louise Hornhaver

August 29, 2008 @ 1:22 pm

I must admit that I like watching Top model, maybe because I am a girl and I am intrested in fashion and all that hehe.
But it dosn’t really look like Tyra Banks on the picture, huh?
Hmm, but right now i do not really spend my time in front of the tv, but it is very entertaining in my opinion.

Reality shows are the hot favourite thing these days. Everyone’s starting one, it pays well !! you dont have to pay the contestants etc.. its a good business scheme. Sitcoms arent that famous these days.

This season should be very interesting! You know Tyra has to throw in a twist to mix things up! This time…there is a transexual in the bunch. Oh, the drama.

ANTM sucks but I love your slant on it, and I will also subscribe to your feed.

Comment by Tom

September 4, 2008 @ 3:38 am

good heavens as it were, is her pose supposed to be reminiscent somehow of a Shiva statue or something?
Well, throwing a little Bollywood into the mix can only be a good thing, imo, and after 11–what did they call them?– cycles (reincarnation echoes is it?… I’m pretty thick..) they are probably running low on original ideas……

Hey who can do without a great hypie theme? i remember wanting to be a teenager in the 70’s. Instead i got stuck with the 2000’s! loL!

Comment by Monavie

September 4, 2008 @ 12:57 pm

Yea….i don’t like that picture at all. I do like Nigel though, he has an awesome accent! I hardly ever watch Top Model though. It’s all drama and then come next year, no one even remembers who won. Good to watch if i need to catch up on petty cat fights…

What is the with the 70’s advertising tactics? I think Luv’s did a similar ad campaign.

Comment by Boende

September 5, 2008 @ 11:35 pm

That has to be the weirdest poster ever. Didn’t we just pass a few 70’s retro years? Can’t wait for the show though… catfiiiiight!

September 8, 2008 @ 1:00 pm

Great article, I actually like the new look of the advertising… although it does kind of remind me of Police Academy for some weird reason.

i like ANTM and i’ve watched every season on TV and the ones i’ve missed i catch them on youtube. sometimes i’m kinda disappointed with the picking process. i don’t like how tyra has it slanted to big plus models. they need more asian models. ;)

Hi! I come from Scandinavia and we have our own version of Topmodel. So has England, but I was really amazed by their show. All the girls are drinking & smoking all the time. I must say that I prefere the american version. Have any of you seen the english version?

These gergous gals remind me of drug, corruption and sorriness.
They try their best to show the most beautiful side for others but do you think they really understand what the real beauty is?
It seems that they do everything they can to go after fame and money.

Tyra scares me. I think she might literally be insane! :)

Comment by Vanessa

September 29, 2008 @ 9:12 pm

I was drawn to watch AMNT this season because they had their first transgender model contestant.

I must admit, despite this I did find Tyra’s “strong sense of self-love” a bit overwhelming. It’s almost as if she has setup the show to be an ego boost just for her. *sigh*

I do appreciate that there are fewer artificial moments of suspense than other reality shows. I must have spent at least a good few hours of my life waiting for Ryan to reveal who was not going to make it through. At least they get down to business at AMNT…

I agree with you guys.. but sometimes i enjoyed watching it if there are no more nice shows on tv.

I didn’t even see Tyra. I was too buzy looking at every one else. My bad! What a picture this is…………….awesome

I like the season so far. I think they may give it to Sheena as they have never had an asian winner. who do you like to win?

Can’t believe that show is still running. Have any of the past ‘Top Models’ done anything big after the show?

Comment by M

October 31, 2008 @ 9:35 am

I’m not gonna lie, I can’t stand Tyra! It is funny, however, that my wife is addicted to that show but knows that she shouldn’t be. I’ll come home from work and as I walk in she’ll quickly change the channel so I can’t see what she was watching. It’s like I was her parent catching her watching something dirty for the first time. Hilarious!:-) -M

Ha ha… Well, if they can´t get famous because of their looks, then they will just have to enjoy the 15 minutes of fame they got from being in a reality show…

I used to love this show, but the more it goes on the more ridiculous it gets. Also, the person who deserves to win the season, never does. Frustrating!

This show is a trainwreck. When are consumers going to start rejecting reality? TV is just really bad nowadays… with only the pay channels really putting out anything decent.

Great post I was honestly laughing most of the way through. I have a deep hatred for this show, mostly because my girlfriend is so obsessed with it so its playing almost every time I leave the room and come back. I always thought they airbrushed way too much, and now finally someone who actually knows what they are talking about confirmed it for me.

I’m enjoying the hippie themed poster. I actually ran into the whole cast out at a bar in Hollywood a few months ago. The models were very nice and down to earth.

December 25, 2008 @ 6:09 pm

I like the picture. It more looks like the art painting. If I don’t look at it carefully, I would not know that this one is American Next Top Model 11.

Comment by ladyluck

January 5, 2009 @ 4:48 am

ROFLMAO. The show is pretty fake, yet somehow I was slightly addicted to it for a while. Faker yet, though, is that airbrushing. It’s bad enough when they do a good job of faking pictures, but it is horrible when they do a bad job that everyone can tell is fake. I mean, seriously, I could probably photo shop better (most likely not because I’m not artistic, but anyone else with artistic abilities probably could).

Comment by Tim Whiteman

February 2, 2009 @ 3:09 am

They should have make the picture more realistic, but I think they have nice poses. Beautiful models too!What I like about Tyra, is that she is really funny and I don’t think she’s copying Oprah. Oprah is way too different than her, the only thing similar is that they are very helpful ang generous to people ( esp needy.

This series became more and more boring…and the poster. There are lot of better show in this time slot.
