rdhaley96 Posted August 30, 2020 Author Share Posted August 30, 2020 Winner AnnouncementTwo absolutely gorgeous women stand before me, and both of you have made compelling cases for the win. Alexandra, you came into this competition as the only full-figured woman in the cast, and this is something that I think worked in your favor and accentuated your beauty. You had a pretty strong start overall, but you faltered towards the middle of the competition. However, you DOMINATED New Zealand, earning every single FCO here. Your competitive drive really pushed you to be the best you could be, and watching your growth in this competition unfold has truly been amazing. Raina, you were the one to beat from the beginning. Your Perfume Beauty picture is ICONIC and put all of your best qualities front and center. You never really reached those heights again after that, but you stayed a strong competitor throughout, never really losing your spot near the top. Your journey in New Zealand wasn't as strong as Alexandra's, but your first half was for sure stronger than hers. Overall, we see a lot of drive in you, and the fact that you've done as well as you did here is very commendable. This decision was such a close call, and the votes were neck and neck the entire way through. However, one of you pulled it out by the end. By a score of 10-6, the winner of cycle 14... is... RAINA!!! Congratulations, Raina! While you had your fair share of detractors, you were the most consistent competitor of the bunch, and that's why you stand before me as the winner. You truly are a stunning and driven woman, and I think you've got a great career ahead of you. Alexandra, this was SO CLOSE. If just one person had picked you as their winner over Raina, we would've had a completely different outcome. Still, the fact that you made it so far and represented so well for full-figured women is something to be proud of. Now it's time for both of you to get out of here and go make your marks on the industry!~Winner's Portfolio~ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WkcEhIKZxD8&feature=emb_title https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TsTEH-Mv_9Q - Here are the results of the portfolio battle: Week 1: Alexandra - 5 / Raina - 16 Week 2: Alexandra - 1 / Raina - 20 Week 3: Alexandra - 11 / Raina - 10 Week 4: Alexandra - 10 / Raina - 11 Week 5: Alexandra - 3 / Raina - 18 Week 6: Alexandra - 1 / Raina - 20 Week 7: Alexandra - 2 / Raina - 19 Week 8: Alexandra - 13 / Raina - 8 Week 9: Alexandra - 19 / Raina - 2 Week 10: Alexandra - 18 / Raina - 3 Week 11.1: Alexandra - 11 / Raina - 10 Week 11.2: Alexandra - 11 / Raina - 10 Final Runway: Alexandra - 9 / Raina - 12 Winner Pick: Alexandra - 10 / Raina - 11 And here are the end of cycle stats -Most FCOs: Alexandra (4)Most Bottom 2 Appearances: Alasia, Simone, Tatianna (3)Biggest Rise in Placement: Simone (+4 spots) Biggest Fall in Placement: Angelea (-8 spots)Best COO Average: Raina (2.818)Best Overall Score: Raina (This is calculated differently from COO Average). - Overall, this was definitely an interesting season. Losing Angelea so early on definitely tainted it a bit, but I think we ended up with a pretty solid final 4. While I'm not sure I personally would've placed them in the order we did, I'm not mad at the outcome. Cycle 8 got the most votes and will kick off later today! 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FrogLenzen Posted August 30, 2020 Share Posted August 30, 2020 I think Raina has an extraordinary face. She has that really... uh... large? wide? face that is great for beauty shots like Yoanna and Jane and others. I just wish I liked her portfolio more.

I meant more along the lines of if one of the 11 people who chose Raina to win chose Alexandra instead, then Alexandra would have won since it would've been 11-10 in her favor.

rdhaley96 Posted August 30, 2020 Author Share Posted August 30, 2020 Photoshoot #1 - Political Issues - Brittany Cassandra Diana Dionne Felicia Jael Jaslene Kathleen Natasha Renee Samantha (on the left) Sarah Whitney (on the right) - Like always, rank these pictures from best (1) to worst (13). Comments are optional (but always encouraged!). Voting will close Tuesday morning, so you have about 40 hours to vote. My Ranking: Jaslene - This is such a powerful shot from Jaslene. It's so simple but so menacing at the same time. She killed it (lol). Brittany - I'm not necessarily in love with this, but I love how glamorous and above it all she looks. She sold her theme well. Samantha - I love her profile in this picture. She looks so beautiful here, and I think she's selling the connection with Whitney pretty well. Felicia - She's really committing to the haughty, superior sort of vibe. I think she could've elongated herself more, but other than that, it's a strong shot. Renee - It's perhaps a bit safe, but I like how she's stretched herself along the front of the car, and she does look really beautiful. Jael - I actually like the emotion she brought to this picture. The expression looks genuinely sorrowful, although I don't know how well it works with the body language. Dionne - She looks gorgeous here. It's just a bit too posed. I would've liked to see her relax more into the shot. Diana - I like the upward gaze and the overall action element of the shot, but it's lacking intensity. I would've liked to see her commit more. Cassandra - It's an okay picture, but opposite of Dionne, I think she's too relaxed in this picture. This would be better with more tension. Natasha - The picture itself is very powerful, but she's not really adding much to it herself. Her expression is a bit too deer in the headlights for the theme. Kathleen - She didn't get the proper emotion across here at all. Having said that, I like the powerful stance, and I think she looks good in the outfit. Sarah - I'm not a fan of this. The styling ages her so much, and the overall picture reads stiff and awkward. Whitney - It's not a flattering picture at all. The outfit is doing nothing for her figure, she's lost her neck, and the expression just doesn't work for the shot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
