America's Next Top Model 11

Oh boy oh boy — another America's Next Top Model finale has come and gone, and once again we have a winner who's sufficient, in my opinion. No matter which way you slice it, the top three this year were all nice girls who came with unique strengths.

And I'm just going to say it: Tyra's hair during the first panel looked like a dead poodle. It was not good. But I digress. The night wasn't too heart-stoppingly dramatic, but a pleasant time was had by all. You can see the rest of the pictures from last night's finale and tell me if you agree with the winner, but first take the last (sob!) Cycle 11 quiz!

Last night's photo shoot on America's Next Top Model made me laugh because although I'm used to Tyra and Co.'s idea of what is "high fashion" and what counts as "fierce," the more I stare at these photos, the funnier they get.

I mean, there are windmills. And pitchforks. And they're in clogs! It's hilariously literal for a shoot in Amsterdam, no? Anyway, it's all part of why I love this silly show so much. In addition to the pictures, we also got to see the girls hanging out and drinking in their loft for once! Is it just me, or has this cycle been sadly devoid of shenanigans?

Anyway, we'll talk about it more in the comments. You can check out the rest of the photos from the show here, but first, take my quiz!

Last night's America's Next Top Model was all about the go-sees! I enjoy this episode each season because we get some outside perspective on how much potential these girls actually have in the modeling world, as opposed to what the judges say about them day in and day out.

I have my personal favorites this season, and I feel like I was vindicated last night! But more on that in a second. The final five are all strong competitors (except for Marjorie, who cries too much for my taste) and only have a few more chances to prove to Tyra and gang they deserve to be this cycle's winner. You can see photos from the rest of the show, but first, take my quiz!

Woohoo, America's Next Top Model has landed in Amsterdam, and the girls are divided as a house and back to doing photo shoots! Things are good and dramatic in Tyra-land, my friends.

So let's see. It's Elina, Analeigh, and Marjorie vs. McKey, Sheena, and Samantha. Kind of hilarious sides, if you ask me, with the first group being moody and cliquey and "born in Europe"-y and the second being, well, a little bonkers and a little dense but totally sweet. Personally, I love it and think it makes for great TV.

So how closely were you watching the girls' antics abroad last night? You can check out the rest of the pics from last night's episode, but first, take my quiz!

Can you guess where the models who survived last night's episode of America's Next Top Model will be heading based on these pictures? I know, it's difficult to pinpoint, what with the subtle and culturally accurate way in which Tyra and gang represented this European country. It's The Netherlands, specifically the region of Holland, specifically the city of Amsterdam.

Last night, things got heated between the models born in Europe and the models born in America. Each week I find this debate in the house hilariously irrelevant to the task at hand, but it's useful for bringing out fun Sheena moments, so I guess it's OK. Anyway, it was the commercial episode, which is one of my favorites! You can check out some more pics from last night's show, and then take my quiz!

Even if you didn't watch last night's cycle 11 recap of America's Next Top Model, you'll probably still be able to take a crack at my quiz, because Tyra's narration just took us through some familiar moments from the pretty short season so far. There was some (so-so) never-seen-before footage — including a freestyle rap performance in the hot tub — and some pretty fun Hannah moments (miss her), but overall, it was kind of meh, wouldn't you say?

Today, I'm testing how closely you've been paying attention all season, so without further ado, take my quiz!

Last night Tyra kept it classy on America's Next Top Model with a photo shoot based on an awards ceremony and all the scenarios that could arise at those glitzy, glamorous galas . . . such as peeing in your gown (see picture below).

This was also the episode with Tyra's posing lesson, which was educational for the ladies but totally without drama for the rest of us. Marjorie didn't even have a nervous breakdown in the challenge, which was a change, and everything else kind of glided along normally. But! There was, in my opinion, a shocking elimination that would have been more surprising had the show not spent a suspicious amount of one-on-one time with the model throughout the show as she hemmed and hawed about how crappy she thought she was doing.

Still, there is plenty to test you on, so check out more pics from the show here and then take my quiz!

Last night's America's Next Top Model was definitely on the "meh" side of things, which is sad because this cycle got off to such a funny, wacky start. Most of the interesting models got kicked off early, leaving a bunch of normal girls who don't appear to be fond of hyperbole. Even Sheena has been oddly subdued. Maybe it's the economy? Oh wait, this was taped a while ago. Sigh.

The only real source of drama last night came from Marjorie's hand-wringing, which is somehow related to how Europeans deal with modeling competitions vs. how Americans approach it. Or something? Basically, she's a nervous wreck, and her glass is half empty most of the time. I feel bad for her and then I want her to buck up and then I feel bad for her again. But I'll save more of my thoughts on that for after I test your Top Model knowledge. You can look at some more pretty pics from the show but first, take my quiz!
