Top Model Podcast: Lauren Gets Mad, Claire Goes Home

Were you as shocked as we were when Tyra announced that Lauren was safe for another week and it'd be CLAIRE who headed home?

Listen to the Top Model podcast!

On our latest Top Model podcast, Mia and I try to figure out what prompted Tyra to make that decision. We also rant about how badly the panel treats Katarzyna, discuss the ups and downs of the go-sees, and predict the eventual winner (don't worry; no spoilers -- it's pure speculation!).

We want to hear from you -- tell us what you think in the comments! And we're on iTunes now, too, so you can subscribe to The Official CW Source podcast and be the first to get a new podcast when we release one.

In the beginning - I really liked Claire i thought that her look was totally high fashion. She took some great pictures, but then she was just getting worse and worse with each week. Also, she wasn't that nice with others, had those arguments - so I agree with judges to let her go.
She should've concentrate on what she has, rather than those arguments...

Lauren shold definetly win. Stop the tipical blondes from winning. Put someone smart and different...models should stand out and be a role to young girls. Lauren would make you not be afraid to be different. My opinion.

I disagree with almost all of you. Lauren IS a model. The judges want her around because of her awkwardness. They have a runway and about 4 more weeks until the final runway. she can straighten out her walk. She DOES have a personality. If you don't think so, then check out her myspace. Clair deserved to go home. Clair did have a pretty bad temper and you would've noticed that if you watched the recap show. To the other girls, i think that everyone other than Katarzyna and Anya aren't that good photo wise. The other ones, i.e. FATIMA and WHITNEY, are just a waste of space.

I have been watching top model for (10) cycles and the decisions rendered by the panel still baffel me, however, I agree not only with the elimination of Clair, because she was in the bottom (2) two weeks straight, but also that both Lauren and Whitney need to be eliminated. Not only are their pics subpar, but they exhibit serious naomi campbell tendencies. They seem to think they can best succeed by belittling their competition. Sad, if they were more mature, they would judge behaviors in the house as what they are, CHILDISH, and improve wholeheartedly on the critics given by the panel instead of taking everything so personally. Everyone knows this competition is about who can be broken down and rebuilt the fastest and the best, why try to make it about anything else?!?

I have no idea why Lauren stayed. Yes it comes down to daily photos and events (which in that case the judges should have considered one designer's response to Lauren as a horse), but if the judges had to imagine Lauren vs. Claire winning the whole thing-would they really pick Lauren to represent them? Wouldn't every go see she ever went confound the designer as to why this horse won a national TV endorsed modeling competition? And her personality is not interesting, whether she's being an irrational bitch or being a loser. A lot of those girls are one note whatever that's supposed to mean. I think the elimination of Claire was also stupid on the part of the producers. She is gorgeous and has class even though it seems she did single out that idiot airehead dominick for awhile, Claire was always my favorite to watch. An actual mature, intelligent accepting person-more interesting to watch than miss Tyra Banks who is the biggest idiot of that show. If you're looking for a reason nobody watches the show anymore, look no further than Tyra. And don't tag the show as 'America's Next Top Model' since I have not seen one past winner randomly appear on any cover, major spread etc. Giselle has no competition. Maybe Claire would have provided it. The worst part about this show however, hands down, is the way the girls are made to squeal and then scream the Tyra Mail out loud. How gay. How sad really to reduce the modeling world to a bunch of bitchy, giggling, squealing girls. Don't they have any pride? Is that bitchy weirdo Fatima the only one with a little reserve?

Claire just got sent home so why is she in the commercial for next weeks episode?????

I don't get the appeal of Whitney at all. I just... I don't know. I don't like her. Her hair really bothers me in the back where you can clearly see her real hair and then the extensions, and I don't think her pictures have ever been that great.

If the competition this cycle is "fixed" and they just want a plus size girl, I don't think she's the girl to do it with. And then I'm just wasting hours of my life watching this.

Oh, and Mr. Jay definitely told Claire like three times not to slam herself into the plastic. He might not have said "don't," but what he was saying was clear. At least in my opinion.

They made a huge mistake. Lauren isnt a model. She might take a few reasonable pictures, but the girl can't even stand up straight and she's an embarrassment to the show as far as I'm concerned.

Claire however had the poise and beauty of a successful model and I'm sure she'll go far.

I have to disagree -- Claire totally deserved to go. She was coasting, but she wasn't taking great photos. Lauren is annoying, yes, but her photos are way better.

I do agree with you that Whitney is a serious contender and may win it all!
