Looks like her age comes up again next show........why is it such an issue?? She consistently takes good pictures, dresses like a model and knows what she's talking about........sometimes older women are nicer looking.....

She is kinda older looking like Jade. I am rooting for Allison, the waif, all the way.

I like Celia...but if I had to pick a winner.....Allison gets my vote too...

I like Celia and Allison. What irritates me about Tyr to death is she brings on the older girl who takes fantastic pictures week after week. Also i great on the runway. And then near the end when they want to get rid of her (IMO so a girl of color can win) she is suddenly to old. She looks too old,

For heavens sake she hasn't aged 10 years in 2 months. Either she looks too old or she doesn't. If she does don't bring her on the show. Stupid Tyra ok gripe over,

They shouldn't hold it against her just because Celia has to use a cane to schlep down the runway.

Well, if they wouldn't shove over the hill models, who do a good job, down our throats every season, we wouldn't have to root for them. Give Celia her shot, without putting her down for her age, she deserves it. Otherwise, they need to put an age limit on this show.

It is not just older girls. Every season she has 2-4 with a story. They usually crash and burn and do badly in photos. And they get sent home. tahlia this season and all the plus models.

Then you have girls like Celia and Heather from a few season ago who rock hard and do great. They get sent home for ridiculous reasons.I think what irritated me the most about Celia gong home was that the judges raved about her photo and had bad things to say about Aminat's. Aminat should have gone home. And Teyona should have also been in the bottom 2.

See...this is what irritates me about this show......Tyra sends a girl home who has a great week.....to me.....Celia's picture was at least second best.....plus she won the challenge.......as well.....she dresses well......and consistently looks good.....this was a good chance for Tyra to champion an "older" model.......and the week she looks young she sends her home......Tyra is so inconsistent with her critiques.......Celia would have rocked the runway challenge at the finale.....too bad.....Aminat hasn't had a decent picture since the beginning.....and they have kept her through several bottom 2....the girl isn't going to improve...how many chances do you get?? I guess a lot if Tyra likes you......

There hasn't been an African American winner since Tootie, so Allison has to settle for second place. The winner better be Teyona not Aminat.

Well...that's hardly a way to pick a Top Model.....

I know but that how Tyra is. If I wasn't a girl of color I wouldn't have tried out of this season.

LOL

well, fortunately you can try out next year, sweetheart.
