Whitney is America's Next Top Model


Ok, so I've gone and spoilt it for you if you haven't already seen it, but you've had a whole day to watch it so don't go all postal on me. So, I wasn't happy about this result as I wanted the lovely Anya Kop to win. She'd been my favourite from the early stages and she was one of the few "models" who didn't spend the entire time bitching and moaning about the other girls and the various photoshoots.

On the other hand, Whitney Thompson complained and bitched about everything throughout the entire series (sorry Tyra, I meant cycle) and was generally unpleasant to the other girls with the exception of Anya. I was glad that Fatima was eliminated first though, I've never liked her. Oh, I don't care that she's been de-clitted and had her labia sewn up and can't even finger herself. Yes, I know that it's sad and horrible for her, but that had nothing to do about her ability to be a model.

Anyway, the conspiracy theories about the ANTM winner have already started. We get these every time - you know, I think that there are more conspiracy theories and shit written about ANTM winners than the JFK assassination and 9/11 put together! Here's the dish from fourfour:

The claim is that Whitney did not try out for top model but was approached on a plane by someone from the show. She was already doing modeling as a size 2 or 4 but because she was closer to a 4 she was a little too big for the show as a regular model. They told her that if she went and gained 10-20 pounds they would definitely put her on the show as "the plus-size model".

Hmm.. Do we see a future in modelling for Whitney? Well, I can see her in Playboy maybe, but on the runway modelling for Calvin Klein? I don't know about that, those fashion gays still like their bitches skinny, no matter what Whitney and Tyra think.

"Why do men think but women talk?"


"Because men have two heads and women have four lips."

Don't blame me for that! I heard that funny line on The CattyCast last night and it made me laugh. The CattyCast is one of those podcasts that I listen to regularly in order to help me fall asleep. I can't fall asleep in silence, I need to hear voices to allow myself to drop off and podcasts are perfect for that although this one makes me laugh so much that it can keep me awake and I have to go and listen to a Lost podcast to make up for it.

I found The CattyCast on iTunes (I'd link to it here but I'm not clever enough to do that) when searching for a podcast about America's Next Top Model (ok, just don't, it's my guilty pleasure and I embrace that) and The CattyCast popped up as the top search result. It turned out to be a podcast with this gay guy called Nate and his girlfriend Kelli who sit around watching reality television such as "ANTM" and "Project Runway" etc and generally dish and bitch about each episode in their weekly podcast. Here's how Nate and Kelli describe it:

"Welcome to The CattyCast, a podcast outlet for your hosts' catty thoughts on all their guilty TV pleasures. Naite and Kelli will discuss, dish, and bitch with class on America's Next Top Model, Nip/Tuck, Project Runway, and so much more.

Join us each week as we unleash the dirt on our guilty pleasures inside the TV box. There's no telling what's bound to happen! So, let's get together and watch some TV!"


My favourite recent podcasts have been titled Girl, You So Ghetto which I can't stop myself from quoting all the time which for a pasty white Irish guy is not a good thing, and Heidi Montag Is An Idiot which is brief but so accurate and totally to the point. You can download the podcasts from here also. Just click on the episode you want and enjoy!
