Disclaimer: almost all of these promo photos are embarassingly bad.
Allison
This girl is sort of an internet meme, not kidding. From what I understand, some /b/tards found photos of her looking near-dead and just generally kind of creepy/Grudge-ish, and they started referring to her as Cute-Chan or more often, Creepy-Chan. Anyway, she's one of my favorites. I can't decide if her face looks busted or great in the promo photo, but her eyes are extremely arresting; it's an innocent look but also very pin-up. Plus her pose mirrors that of my Victoria, so also awesome. Too bad she's a white chick, so she's got no chance in hell of winning this cycle. Personality-wise, I'm thinking she's going to be either really sweet, shy, and withdrawn, or a borderline psychotic sarcastic condescending bitch, like Elyse but crazier.
Aminat
TBH this girl is up in my favorites. I think it's the afro, LOL. She looks a little old, but I dunno, I just love her. I feel my love deflating, though, because someone posted pre-show photos of her and she's got the same expression in all of them, not to mention enormous thighs. I still love her. She is a way edgier Ambreal.
Celia
Hi Michelle C4. Anyway, I HATE this promo shot, she looks like she wants to tear my throat out and like she's got gigantic chunky thighs. But someone posted her pre-show photos, and oh my God, they're ethereally gorgeous. So I'm hoping this is just a bad photo. But again, white girl, no chance of winning this cycle.
Fo
FoTW. LOL I like her, even if she practically screams "too short to be a model" from this one photo. She's gorgeous. I like how she looks racially ambiguous. She looks a little like Rashida Jones. I think she'll probably be eliminated for being "too commercial" or something.
Isabella
Aw, Kahlen, I'm so glad you're back on the show! You're my second-favorite model ever! Eh, this one's okay. She obviously looks like Kahlen, but her face is harsher. I HATE that dead arm in her photo, and she looks chunky, but then again, so do almost all of these girls. Also, she's one of a couple of girls that say their occupation is "aspiring model"... BBs, just say you're unemployed!
Jessica
Too sexy edit. I don't like her at all, the face is too harsh (it might just be a bad angle where you can hardly see her eyes, but I dunno). It's kind of like, okay, we already have Salma Hayek, and Salma Hayek doesn't really look like a man. But nice try.
Kortnie
She seems to be beloved on forums and such, but WHY? For one thing, her name is "Kortnie" and that's a retarded spelling of "Courtney." Her pose here is absolutely terrible. And nothing about her says "model" to me; I just see "Hooters waitress." The fact that she apparently dated some NASCAR guy (I think?) proves I am right, ha ha. Or something. She's pretty, but that's about it. Maybe she'll be like Adrianne, some ridiculously hot hooker who still excels at modeling. But I seriously doubt it; Adrianne was one of a kind.
London
I love her name, but oh my God, is this the worst pre-show photo ever? Those pants will never be flattering on anyone, she looks about 5'3", and her face just looks... um... retarded. Yeah, that's the word for it. Then again, apparently we've seen flashes of her in the commercials and such, and she actually looks great and edgy there. So I have hope.
Natalie
Oh man, she is GORGEOUS and probably one of the more modelesque girls of the bunch, but I don't like this photo much, other than that it lets you see that she's pretty. She's just a little like "meh. Here I am. Standin' here. Bein' a model. Whoooooooooooooo"
Nijah
She reminds me of a much softer Dionne (though a little froggish... in a good way, though!), and I thought Dionne was beautiful, so that's great. Her boobs look weird, but she looks tall and modelesque in this photo, plus she's young, and black, so she actually has a chance of winning this cycle!
Sandra
She reminds me of Stacy Ann (with a dash of Danielle) but way, way, way better, edgier, and more interesting. She's honestly probably my favorite, looking over all these photos after the first time that I saw them. I love how casual yet modelesque this photo is. It's easily the best promo shot, um, not that that says anything considering this trash heap.
Tahlia
Oh, um... well, she's really cute. And she's got a very sad story (she got burned when she was a baby, and something like a quarter of her body is covered in skin grafts). But there is no way this chick is a model. She's Mercedes but a BILLION times more commercial. I'm sure the outfit doesn't help but... but... but...
Teyona
She reminds me of Keenyah, but prettier. She's still very hard though. This photo is all "WHAT BITCH DO NOT MESS WITH ME I WILL CUT YOUUUUU." I love her outfit, and she looks tall and modelesque. One of my favorites, I just wish she didn't scare me!
