Cycle 9 - The Girl Who Becomes America’s Next Top Model
The final three are put to the test when they have to shoot a CoverGirl commercial for CoverGirl Wetslicks Fruit Spritzers. The girls get to choose from 12 fruity flavors to portray in their endorsement, as follows:
Chantal - Lemon
Jenah - Strawberry
Saleisha - Tangerine
All the girls struggled with their commercials at first, but all managed to pull off good takes in the end, although Jenah’s attitude comes off as slightly abrasive to Jay.
Before evaluation, the girls are asked to critique their competition. All the girls commended themselves as having the most potential, but Jenah’s laid-back attitude causes her to be deemed as having the least. At panel, Saleisha landed in the bottom two because the judges were still unsure whether she could pull off “high fashion”. Despite taking some of the best photos from the entire series, Jenah’s substandard commercial does her in, and she is is eliminated.
The final runway takes place near the Forbidden City, and Cycle 8 winner Jaslene Gonzalez starts off the show. Chantal has a slight accident when her dress trips a stilt performer, while Saleisha consistently showed a strong walk.
During the final panel, the judges praised both finalists’ personalities and pictures throughout the season. While it was decided that Chantal had a better look and body for high fashion, Saleisha had a better walk, and also more experienced. The girls are called back and Saleisha is declared the winner.
