While you all seemed pretty split and very opinionated on whether the right girl won America's Next Top Model last night, I must say that I wasn't surprised (um, I'll leave the word rigged out of it, but you know...). Don't worry, I won't spoil it for those of you who are saving it on the Tivo for the weekend, but for the rest of you, check out this gallery of photos from last night's finale (or click on the big pic below to see them). Then test to see how well you were paying attention last night and take the final ANTM quiz for cycle 9. Single tear.

woohoo 100% and i turned it off after Jenah got elimanted because I knew right then and there that the rest would be BS and i was right
1Awww. I didn't watch much this season, but I loved Chantal.
2Chantal should have won. she was perfect
3i don't even like how saleisha looks in that picture!
4Ugh, ugh, ugh. Tyra is starting to annoy the crap out of me. She needs to stop talking about herself all the darn time and quit staging these ridiculous breakthroughs for the girls. I was so disgusted I just fast-forwarded through that bit.
5RIGGED!!!!!
6I hope they all go far.
7100% - but I wanted Jenah to win
810/10 yeahhhhh!
9I think Jenah's "My Life as a Cover Girl" commercial would've been more interesting.
10honestly, after heather and lisa, I really think saleisha deserved to win. I thought Chantal was kind of ditsy (especially after she shared the same thoughts as paris hilton-who we all know is a genius- and said that being in shanghai was like being in the future) and I really think that there was some truth to what the judges said about Jenah. I dont know if it was edited that way, but I just found her comments unprofessional and really arrogant. I understand that it's her sense of humor, and I have friends who make jokes like that as well, but I really think that there is a time and place for those kind of comments. So after heather left, I chose saleisha by process of elimination.
11Saleisha's the most likeable but boy does Tyra get on my friggin' nerves!
They should call the show "Tyra talks about Tyra Banks".
And if I had to hear one more time that Chantal thinks that she's "made for modeling" or that she was "born to model" (like all of the other girls didn't think the exact same thing), then I would have probably thrown things at the t.v.
Jenah grew on me, but her hair could look awfully atrocious at times...
1210/10 yaaaay. im so happy Saleisha won! she was my favorite from the beginning
13jenah was the best by far: you can see that from the covergirl pictures. saleisha and chantal both look fake/cheesy.
i loved jenah! also they totally overplayed her "attitude". it was just the way of editing that made her look so mean... but yeah i'll admit she was SO low-maintenance. especially since you can tell she COULD look good if she wanted to, like in the 2nd to last judging, when she looked amazing! so i was kinda disappointed she always looked like she'd just stuck her finger in the socket.
but still... she was the best. even though she's not traditionally pretty, she was an amazing model. and i was really disappointed in tyra. because jenah > chantal > saleisha
1480%-- still Team Jenah!
15i absolutely LOVE jenah... boo saleisha
16chantal should have won
17jenah bothered me to no end, im glad she didnt win, as far as chantal goes, it doesnt matter if she is ditzy she took the best pictures and second, saliesha was already a model she shouldnt of been on the show. not only that all her pictures (except for the last ones) looked the same because of that horrible haircut
18I should have paid better attention during panel. I only got 80%.
19the girl in the middle has a nice smile but her body looks disgustingly skinny. i mean, it looks too skinny. i'd be questioning it...why does it look so wrong to me?? is it just me?
20Go Saleisha! I'm sure they will all do well in the real world.
21I see no striking qualities here that would make any of them top anything. The middle one has an abnormal anorexic body. Uglies.
22Saliesha won, I'm happy for her. I liked Jenah too, but let's remember that a lot of the runner-ups end up doing better than the winners!
23Jenah should have won. Saliesha should not have even been allowed in the competition. She has previous model experience, has done a commercial, and was on Tyra's show.
2410/10! I think Chantal should have won; Saleisha has too much history with tyra and modeling. Chantal isn't as expierenced.
2510/10 yay saleisha!
26Jenah looks the best here...I actually wanted Chantal to win
27It's rigged. They needed a black girl this "cycle". How predictable.
28i hated saleisha. completely unlikeable. favortism is a b*tch when you go to tyra's camp. anything to promote herself.
29i'm still bitter about the show right now - it should have been heather and jenah in the final 2 and then who ever won would have actually gone on to be a successful editorial model this time
30Saleisha has the ugliest haircut ever!
31Of the final three, it should have been Jenah.
32i don't see not one thing "top model" about any of them...hmmm
33ok i'm gonna make up my own show...
34where girls i have model with be from 5'2 to 5'6 and can weigh anywhere between 115 and above! (i'm just throwing numbers out there) and THEN we can find girls who are actually attractive with personalities to match! i'm so sick of this your 5'11 and 100 lbs. are your automatically attractive!
thanks for letting me vent
I still miss Heather.
35I guess I'm ok with Tootie winning. (I'm stealing that from someone else. Can't take credit for it.)
I was not a fan of this cycle...
36The haircut was given to Saleisha by the producers and the show. Don't blame her for the Rihanna 'do.
I'll say it one more damn time. It is against American law to rig a gameshow. Let's try that again: IT IS AGAINST AMERICAN LAW TO RIG A GAMESHOW.
Saleisha may have gotten onto the show because Tyra knew she was a good model, but she stayed on her own accord.
378/10 Team Chantal!
38Did anyone else think it was strange that they put on that GIGANTIC production of a runway show and there was almost no audience besides the judges?
39It should have been Jenah and Saliesha in the final 2. Then it would have been a FAIR comparison. Can someone please tell me, since when does Seventeen & Covergirl = High Fashion Editorial model?
40Also-I'm watching Cycle 1 right now and it is SO different! Tyra actually was nice to the girls and looked like she was going to cry during the first elimination.
41I thoug Chantal was going to win, but I was happy that selisha won I would of ben happy if chantal won too i liked them both
42I didn't want seleisha to win.. but I knew that she would because they are on a color rotation. white white black black white black white latino black
4310/10 of course!
44i only watched the last 20 minutes and i managed to get 8 / 10 correct!
45I think it is sorta ridiculous that people think it is rigged because of color...how absurd. If I said that the world is RIGGED because the majority of the women in the world who are claimed to be the most beautiful are white, then there would be hoopla and horror...
46Saleisha WORKED...let me say it again...WORKED that runway. She wore that hairstyle, as horrible as I thought it was, better than anyone of those other girls would have. Jenah needed to brush her hair, and I did like Chantal, but she was ultra stiff in the runway competition.
Tyra can get on my nerves, but HELLO...it is her show. If she wants to sit and say her name over and over for the hour show and they still air her and people are still watching after nine seasons, then more power to her. I think it is a shame how jealous some people can be, how judgmental people are, and how catty women many women tend to be.
As as for the race thing...don't take it there!
jenah's cover girl shot is by far the best. and as much as i love the camp of antm, it's getting so ridiculous that i might have to stop watching. and i would HATE to do that! but tyra is really getting to me at this point...
47So in the final walk Tyra gets more fan faare than the models. "Tyra Banks is arriving!" Yes but when is she LEAVING???
48Every comment they made about Jenah had to do with her attitude, and even with the editing I thought they were overly critical. Yes, she didn't act as if she was on sugar every moment of everyday...but she seemed to be pleasant and funny.
49I do think Saleisha had a HUGE advantage in the competition. She knew Tyra (through T-Zone), modeled on the Tyra Show and appeared in previous seasons of Top Model, and she had a national commercial with Wendy's.
Cycle 10 starts in January/February...I'm going to give ANTM one more try, then I'll stick to Project Runway.
Honestly, I get its a reality show, but they're not very realistic about what makes a model.
you can't rig a show that has no voting or audience input. it is clear, and always has been, that the point of the show is tyra picking a new model. i just happen to strongly disagree with her selection.
team jenah. plus, if i was on reality tv, i am well aware how i would be edited: sketchy, devious, and sarcastic.
