The Winner and Underdog: Saleisha Stowers
At this point, I am sure we are all familiar with the controversy surrounding Saleisha's win. While Cycle 9 aired, evidence surfaced that Saleisha may have had experience and pre-ANTM connections to Tyra Banks that gave her an unfair advantage. Sure, Saleisha appeared in a nationally shown Wendy's commercial and modeled for the "Especially Yours" wig line. But I wouldn't call that high-fashion experience. The real drama surrounded Saleisha's enrollment in T-Zone, Tyra's self-esteem camp for girls, when she was 14. She had even modeled for Rami Kashu (of Project Runway fame) on The Tyra Show. So why is Saleisha an underdog? Because she was given the worst haircut in Top Model history...or rather...the history of womankind. In my eyes, no ANTM makeover, not even Brittany's self-destructive weave, has put a model at such a disadvantage. So despite the supposed edge she had from the start, rocking that bowl-cut made Saleisha the real underdog of Cycle 9.

I absolutely love ANTM! I don't think in cycle 9 that Saleisha was an underdog. She had experience already! Also I think Tyra should have a guys ANTM. That would be great! I wanna know what males go through to become a model.
