@Luke W

I watched Talkin’ ‘Bout Your Generation and Time Shifted Australia’s Next Top Model so I could skip through that and also Dollhouse after (granted 15 minutes towards the end of Dollhouse I caught up to the ad breaks), each to their own however Packed To The Rafters is not my type of show.

I also think Tahnee may have been in the right place at the right time, with Spain bringing in a minimum BMI for models and with this happening in Italy:

*”Italy’s fashion industry and the government have pledged to abide by a voluntary code of conduct which aims to keep unhealthy models from the catwalk.

According to the code, models must provide a medical certificate proving they do not suffer eating disorders.

The code also bans the use of models aged under 16 and urges the use of larger-sized models.”*

Not that Tahnee is larger-sized, however she is more curvaceous and if Italy’s Fashion Houses start following the code and making dresses for catwalks too suit they will not be putting them on the less curvaceous models, so Tahnee would fit that bill well.

Thanks for getting this info David. I was close with estimating that Tahnee would have needed a landslide of public votes to have won. Slightly off-topic, but I am curious if anyone else did what I did last night. Started watching ANTM on FOX8, then changed to PTTR at 8:35>8:38>8:42 then continued watching ANTM on FOX8+2 when PTTR finished. You have to love timeshift.

Todd, the only model out of all the contestants this year was Clare. It was a terrible season, just as bad as last year. Hopefully the average age of the girls next year is closer to the American version, I’m sick of these teenage bogans.

Cassi should have won – Tahnee is no model.

I’m so happy with the result.
There’s no way in hell that Cassie should have won or deserved to be anywhere near the final. Those judges were kidding themselves when they gave her the vote and said to not disappoint them. Meh, I can’t stand the judges anyway.

I also feel for you people who endured the drawn out live show with D grade singers. I was actually glad that I had to work for once and had to record it.

This dragged on and on and on. I would rather see a packaged ANTM style final episode.

Please keep the D grade singers in the cupboard.

If Cassi won she would be the next Ebony. Who you might ask????

There is no way Cassi should have won this comp… she is a disgrace. Tahnee has personality, amazing beauty and good work ethic. She definately deserved to win. Cassi should not even have been in top two! I was shocked, should have been someone who deserved it… like Clair! About the voting system, it should have been explained but I think it was obvious that Tahnee would appeal to the Australian population over Cassi 100 fold! No one likes a sooky, over reacting tool.

@Leon, i dont feel it was dragged out at all. Plus Cassi still could’ve won if more judges picked her. I’ve blogged about the Top Model result.

For a 90 minute finale, surely at some point they should’ve explained the voting system to viewers? It was really weird how they dealt with the result at the end…there was no explanation as to how the audience vote swung the decision to Tahnee. Suss.

If the tally was that blown out there should’ve been no reason to drag it out..
