two inches is a SNAP. like runfiercely said, you could knock it off in a month. and not only would it help her measurements, she may even lose a little baby fat in her face (which she could DEFINITELY use). it could ONLY benefit her. she barely started out and she's already burning bridges.

and peace of mind??? it's two inches. they didn't tell her to drop fifty pounds. i hope she has peace of mind when she winds up losing jobs.

lol.. ok, so having a mind of your own isn't a hot commodity anymore. forget integrity, we should just do what the boss says, despite how we feel inside. OK.. and i'm not arguing at all. i'm just presenting a side to the story that people seem to not understand. Apparently, if the agency says lose 2 inches, WE MUST do this.

like i said. two inches is NOTHING. lose 10 inches? then i could understand. 2? NOTHING. forget common sense. we should just eat pizza with tyra.

I'm not saying I'm disappointed in her as a PERSON. I'm just saying if it was her "dream", she would've done it. She def. is naive. However, I still love her.

yes. i still like her as a person (minus the arrogant elite diss). she's still a very sweet girl. but terribly naive.

lol..judge judge judge.. I always get a kick out of window watchers.. not to mention, who's to even say this whole 2 inches story is true? may turn out that we're the "terribly naive" ones to believe this.

^Well knowing Analeigh, its easy to believe. Does anyone here know if it is true?

knowing analeigh? lol.. from the edited scenes from the show? ok.

it's from her interview. oh, but wait, OF COURSE SHE WOULD LIE! WHO CARES ABOUT SUFFERING NATIONAL EMBARRASMENT?

lol..i don't consider it embarrassing at all. So i doubt that had anything to do with anything. But I gues syou represent the "National" opinion. Again, i'm not arguing, nor do I expect anyone to agree with me. that means nothing to me. AND I just read an interview also, I'll post the link. Apparently during the interview, she got a text and said, "they want me to lose 2inches" no mention of Ford or Elite. SO maybe its a different interview? : http://www.dailybreeze.com/ci_11228873

yes. lying in an interview about agencies wanting you so badly is really good exposure for a modeling career.

lol..who's to say that she's lying? ---i guess i'd have to see this alleged interview.

Analeigh's face might not be as "sweet and commercial" as Tyra said if she slimmed it down. And that would come from losing the 2 inches Elite asked her to. Going from 36 inches to 34 inches is NOTHING. I could go from a 32 inch waist to a 30 inch one in a month if I needed to, but then again I'm not ushering in offers from huge modeling agencies, so it doesn't matter. Analeigh obviously is very naive (ie. the thing with the Saudi Arabian modeling agency she talked about), so I'm reasonably sure she will be regretting her decision once she realizes she cannot book anything remotely high fashion or editorial with her current size.

scroll down to redsoxrule's 5th comment. ANALEIGH posted this on rtv games.

Wow, she is NOT SMART (I had idiot, but that sounded too mean). First, great job trashing Elite when they were so supportive and interested. Second of all, great job trashing MTV. Third of all, great job getting a tattoo when you want to "focus on modeling". And fourth of all, great job liking your butt, because it's too big for high fashion. See you in JcPenney's commercials. MAN I sound bitter, and I LOVED her on the show, but she is handling this all wrong. Analeigh, let me be your agent! I'll help you!

like i said. " she barely started out and she's already burning bridges."

lol..you are all funny. I read the comments, and she's obviously satisfied with her decision. Which goes back to my initial point, of who are we to judge? the best part of that interview to me was, "Ford likes me as I am" that seems to be important to her. So again, I commend her decision. Do what makes you happy, can't worry about what others think. I doubt that she's overly worried about disappointed strangers.---and i don't think she thrashed MTV at all, she's just not interested in hosting...another choice of hers.

I didn't see that you even said that david18 lol, but yeah, I agree. And you know, it's fine that she turned down Elite, but she wrote about it in a blog and basically TRASHED them and then goes "Oh, I politely turned them down.." UH not really, girlfriend, since you kind of exploited them in a blog!! you fail at life, analeigh, sorry.

lol, "fail at life" is it ever that serious?

let's just hope ford keeps liking her as she loses job opportunities.

i wouldn't say fail at life. but as a truly responsible, sensible model? yes.
