I was actually very happy that a plus sized model actually won and I think that some of her photos were absolutely amazing, but sometimes I wonder if she was really the best contestant. And after seeing her cover girl commercials I definately see what the judges meant about her coming off as being fake. I dind't really see it on the show and thought they were just giving her a hard time, but I think her commercials are horrible.

Whitney really shouldn't have won. If they wanted a plus size girl to win, it should have been Tocarra years ago. They've had much better looking, and more talented plus sized girls than Whitney. She's probably been my least favorite plus sized contestant and she definitely was not better than Anya.

you're right. Whitney wasn't the best contestant in that cycle. But she was the best spokesperson for plus size models and real size people because she never tried to lose weight and is definitely comfortable in her own skin. She wasn't the typical skinny model and all throughout the competition she felt that she had to have an edge against them just because she's plus size.I really love that she won because she represents real people. After all, this is a reality show so ANTM has got to represent something, and it's just about time to make a plus size model win.
and we have to give it to her, she did pretty well on the final runway walk. she outshined Anya at that challenge.

I am with you, I'm all for a plus sized girl winning but she is also a spokesperson and was pretty fake and mean and her commercial I saw was lousy! I am sure time will tell with her to see if she can keep a contract and get booked once her freebies from ANTM are gone. I love the show, it makes you see beauty in different ways. How about the new one with the transgender - that is interesting how he/she has to take his born-with parts and hide them. I'm always rooting for the underdogs I guess.
