I am so happy that Whitney won! It is about time that "full figured" model won. She really did rock the runway! I hope she is as accepted as the previous winners, and also that she makes something of her self beyond this win.

Although the episode was rushed, the Versace runway show
was very cool for ANTM. Though, I am so sick of Saliesha.

Agreed, I'm sick of Saliesha, too. Thank god I won't have to sit through another one of her "My Life as a Cover Girl" spots!

This was the first time in a long time that I wasn't really rooting for one or the other of the final two. I really liked both the girls, but in the end, I am glad that Whitney won! It's about time. Plus, I think she could use the exposure more than Anya, who is definitely quite "model-y" and will probably do just fine without the title.

Go Whitney! She rocked the hell outta that runway and totally deserved the win. I also loved her post-win interview, where she talked about sending a message to girls that you don't need to starve yourself or resort to plastic surgery to be a model.

So, watching the final judges' deliberation, did anyone else think Paulina was being seriously catty in flaunting her bias against Whitney? As in "I see two girls here, one high-fashion model and one ham" and "I think men want Whitney in their bedroom, but Anya makes you want to buy the clothes"?

I like Paulina and think that up until then she made a good judge, but in last night's final moments, her prejudice was obvious and her comments unprofessional. Of course we see what the editors want us to see, but still ...

I think Miss Jay had a lot to do with Whitney's win, he was clearly very impressed !

I was so glad she won, she totally deserved it (although I really liked Anya too) !

Miss Jay is by far my fav part of ANTM

I'm sort of happy this season is over, either I'm finally over ANTM, or this season was just boring.

I'm glad Whitney won. She did have some really awesome pics. Plus she definitely rocked the runway. It's nice a see a normal girl win.

Yeah I think Paulina was kind of a you-know-what to Whitney as well. She doesn't play the Janice Dickinson role very well.

I can't stand Paulina. I hope she doesn't come back next season. As much as I love top model, this show is starting to get tired.

Carla- I agree about Paulina. I miss Janice...

YAAAY Whitney! Finally, a normal looking girl wins! And someone said this earlier, but as much as I liked Anya, she will succeed without the win.

Down with Paulina! The comments were so rude! Especially when she told Anya flat out that she looked stupid in her photo.

Okay, so I haven't watched this seasaon of ANTM because I just got tired of this show. I was just interested in knowing how the winner looks this season. So I went through some of Buzz's recaps.

Is it wierd that I think it's ridiculous they consider this winner "plus sized" ??

This show is tired and TYRA-rone uses it as a vehicle to push her own agenda. Surf the web and you'll find photos of a very THIN Whitney, who before Top Model was a Thin model!!! Dissected or not, Anya's commercial was horrible; HELLO, you can't understand her with that strange accent! No one is going to hire a model that can't deliver lines for commercial gigs. And all three models should have nailed the commercial spot on; they were given their lines the night before.

I thought Whitney brought her top game and her personality shined on the catwalk. I was disappointed that Anya seemed frozen, but I'm sure she'll get gigs because she takes great pictures. And yes, I'm glad to not see Saleisha's "My Life as a Cover Girl" shorts--boring.

I feel this show has run it's course.

I am so disappointed that Anya didn't win..she was far better throughout the competition. Whitney was ok and she was sending a really good message..but overall her better than Anya? Um no.

Fatima looked absolutely gorgeous..I'm sad it wasn't a Fatima/Anya final.

I'm glad that Whitney won and they finally had a 'full figured' woman win. And Anya will probably be more successful without the title of America's Next Top Model. Most of the girls who win really are never seen again so this could be the best thing for Anya.

I agree with cupcake. Both girls are stunning but I didn't enjoy Whitney's runway. It was too over the top for the type of clothing they were wearing. Don't get me wrong Anya was a dud on the runway

I think Tyra is making up for nine cycles of not having a plus sized model make it that far. There were far better ones in the past in my opinon

I can't believe that they consider Whitney a "plus-sized" woman. After seeing reruns and pictures from the season, honestly, Anya was overall better. I'm glad that Whitney won, to send that kind of message, but I think it was more to satisfy the audience. I'm sure there have been complaints that some of the previous "plus-sized" models didn't get further in the competition.

i love the new judge Paulina Porizkova. Paulina adds glamour and credibility in the show. Paulina began modelling at age 15 and instantly became a SUPER STAR model in Paris. At age 17 Paulina started conquering New York during the 80's. She was the youngest to model for Sports Illustrated Swimsuit. If Paulina makes rude and nasty remarks it is just part of reality show. Paulina was once a judge for Elite's Look of The Year in 1980's where most of the contestants are younger from different countries. Thank you Tyra for picking Paulina as the new judge because she adds high class fashion and perfection.
