Im a little disappointed Jael didn't get any further into the competition. She's gorgeous. But she's been so damn annoying lately imo. I don't know who I want to win anymore! Maybe Brittany... though I hate how she went on about the short term memory thing, I mean if it happened years ago to her, she could have done things to better her self, or to like get around the problem, she just seemed to make the issue way bigger than it was. Probably just me who thinks that lol

I empathize with Brittany but how was she overcoming the short memory thing the last couple of years? I thought they had cue cards to assist them as well but maybe I am wrong. IMO she was making a big deal as well ....

Yeah, she had cue cards right in front of her :/

Yeah, they had cue cards in front of her, but you can't just stare at the cue cards. She has to make eye contact with the camera. The cue card holder stood off to the side, so it wasn't possible for her to just stare at the cards and read them. She couldn't remember from looking at the cue card to memorize a few words at a time to looking at the camera. She would lose the words almost immediately. Think of looking at a phone number in a phone book once, closing the book, and then trying to dial the number from memory...it's the same thing. The best thing for someone with short term memory loss to do is memorize, memorize, memorize. She was better off memorizing than using the cards.

At any rate, it was time for Jael to go. She was impossible to understand when she spoke. Took good pics, but just not the kind of model cover girl would want as their spokesperson.

I'm sure advice would have been given to her on how to handle her short term memory loss from her doctors, therapists, etc. Hopefully she will start taking some proactive measures or she will be sent home.

IMO, Jael has that high fashion model look rather that cover girl material. Her accent was thick and difficult to understand.

I'm not excusing/justifying her behavior, I'm just pointing out that the cue cards might not do any good for someone who has short term memory loss. If the card holder would've been crouched down below the camera (which wasn't possible because of the reflection screen thingy being right there), she might have had a better shot. Whatever.

When she signed on to do ANTM, it's not like she wasn't aware that the end result, if she won, was she'd be a spokesperson for CG. Like I said, she took good photos.

Jael was from Detroit...we don't really have "accents" in the midwest. She just didn't know how to speak properly. Natasha is from Russia and she was easier to understand than Jael.

Oh no! I DVR'd it and didn't see it yet. Knew I shouldn't have looked in this thread. I kinda thought Jael would be going soon tho. Sure wish they'd dump Natasha, she is really getting on my nerves.

Sorry to break it to you but everyone has an accent dear. No matter where you're from you will always sound different to those who aren't from your area.

So far I can only picture Natasha and Renee in the long run... *maybe* Brittany. Dionne seems forgettable, and Jaslene isn't doing as good as she used to.

the final three should be renee, dionne, and natasha. I dont really like natasha but ugh...jaslene is looking worse every week. I dont really like her anymore.

brittany & jael were my favorites in the begining. but natasha is totally growing on me. she so optomistic, & smiley. she's totally content with being herself. and thats pretty awesome.
