K, so the Jays said it was obvious from the start that the winner would win, so Tyra and the editors gave her little airtime to make it less obvious.

^ bingo
she had like ZERO confessional time. I didn't start watching at the beginning, but the overall impression I got was that Sam was the narrator. She got ripped off. |

McKey didn't have an edit because they didn't want to embarrass her to the fashion world.

Of the three finalists, I saw Analeigh more as a "Cover Girl Mag" type. But, I agree with everyone who's said that Mckey was the TPTB's
preferred winnah. I have no problem with that since she was my fav since about the fourth week. Though I thought all three finalists were among the most
consistent in this cycle and they all seemed to be pretty nice girls in general.
Sam was ok, took some very nice photos fairly consistently, but was a bit too generic compared to the other two. I bet she'll do well enough, though. There's always a market for a cute, fresh-faced, blonde girl next door. And she seems to be willing to work hard and improve as a model. I do believe that Mckey could turn out to be one of the best winners they've ever had. Like her looks or not (and I did) she has the potential to be a very versatile high fashion model. As Nigel said, the walk can be worked on, and she, like Sam, had shown that she's very willing to take direction without copping a 'tude. That seems to count for quite a lot in the modelling biz. She, more than most of the girls this season can fairly easily achieve a number of photo-ready looks: -Androgyny -Goofy-weird -Lean elegance -Athletic I also think she may have won the contest during the week of the go see episode. Tyrant and the gang had to have known that one of the biggest criticisms of their last few winners was that Tootie and What's Her Face from last cycle aren't exactly they type to have high-fashion designers/agencies chasing them down to get their names on the dotted line. Ty and the other judges could barely contain their excitement when they realized that every designer Mckey saw that day was pretty much ready to sign her the moment she walked through their doors. |

It's going to be really weird to see McKey's MLAACG commercials next season. I can't even picture how they will look.

McKey just seemed flat to me. And she always had the attitude that she of course was going to win it. I think it would have meant more to Sam or Analeigh.
Eh. She's gorgeous on paper, she just has no personality. |

Okay, I don't feel like reading back, so I'll just post my thoughts.
Maybe it was just the runway, but I can honestly say I feel like Samantha and McKey are probably the two worst final two walkers in the history of this show. Literally terrible. I watched them and my jaw dropped at how terrible they both were. ....I didn't think Samantha had a shot in hell (I thought she was going out 3rd). I actually thought she did better than McKey in the final fashion show though, I liked her walk much more (even though it was disgraceful it was still better). McKey takes a good photo but she looks a decade older than she really is. I'm disappointed with her win. I thought Analeigh really deserved it, and after that finale I thought even Samantha deserved it more than McKey. |

I agree about their walks. They were awful.

Covergirl picture reactions:
Samantha: Pretty Analeigh: Beautiful McKey: GORGEOUS Samantha should have been cut first. McKey looked beautiful in the fashion show. Her walk wasn't very good, but I've seen her walk wonderfully before. Every step she took looked like a photo. McKey owned the episode for me. Amazing model. |

Both terrible walkers...the way the fashion show was shot we barely even got to see them. Which was probably shot that way for a reason.
I am glad I read the spoiler so I wasn't that shocked when the final 2 were announced. That said, I liked them both which is the first time in awhile I've actually both the top 2. I know she's no stunner (those kid pics of her growing up were hilarious), but I think McKey is a fantastic model. Yes she looks 70, but I think she's one of the best winners so far. That's not saying much of course, but certainly better than many. Analeigh <3 But I'm over it. I'll just sit back and watch everyone bitch now about how horrible a winner McKey is. :) |

You know when everyone was going on about that the Chinese gymnasts were sooo young cos they looked young at the Olympics? My 11 year old compared to Shawn Johnson looks older than her. And that's with SJ wearing makeup! But that's what I think, others may compare them and think "what the hell are you rattling on about?". |

ANDand19 wrote: Yeah and McKey was a fucking hottie! I wanna do her right now! :barf. I loved when Miss Jay said she looks like Lurch. It's so true, she's so fucking hideous. At times she looks like a cyclops, esp with her ears and that annoying shit she does with her lips. Seriously though, can they picked more of a dull, lifeless, boring as hell winner? On a side note, my sister who hasn't watched this season, came in and said "I'm so shocked that the transexual made it to the final 2!" She thought McKey was the tranny That runway show was PAINFULLY hideous! It was kinda hilarious with how horrible Sam was, but McKey wasn't any better. I can see why they got rid of Analeigh. However, I don't get this whole "OMG SO ROBBED IM NEVAH EVAH WATCHING AGAIN!" Come on people, her portofolio was nothing spectacular. She was mediocre the entire season and I don't even get why Tyra acted like she had this huge breakthrough. She was always flat the entire time. The only difference is that eventually she started doing different things with her body to distract us from her face.The panel even said it each week. Thankfully all 3 of the boring lesibean hags all left in a row <3. I just wish McKey could have joined them on the way out. Oh well I guess I was bound to hate a winner, since I have at least liked every winner since Nicole (hate that fucking troll!).
I think that's because they didn't want their viewers falling asleep. She had nothing interesting to say, so they didn't show it. They had far bigger characters (Sam, Sheena, etc.) and bigger storylines (Isis being transgendered, Elina & Marjorie being insufferable trolls) to care about McKey telling us about her boring life in a suburb.
