America's Next Top Model Has Been Crowned!

America's Next Top Model Winner McKey

It's hard to believe last night was the finale for America's Next Top Model Cycle 11! Time flies when you're having fun. We were down to the final three: Analeigh, Samantha and McKey and we've got to be honest - at the beginning of Cycle 11, these were not the three we had picked to make it to the finale. That being said, watching their skills mature throughout the season was inspiring.

Cycle 10 winner Whitney joined the girls to introduce a new lip gloss from Cover Girl that's supposed to brighten your smile. Unfortunately for the girls, the commercial they shot not only had them memorizing lines - but lines in a foreign language. Oh, and they had to kiss another hot male model. What was with all of the kissing going on this cycle? Sam didn't have much energy during her attempt at a Cover Girl commercial. McKey's performance got progressively better in terms of line delivery but her head twitches didn't impress Mr. Jay. Poor Analeigh had a meltdown during her commercial taping.

Jim de Yonker, who has been the photographer for the Cover Girl shoot for many seasons, directed the three finalists and it seemed clear that McKey was his favorite even though he called her "a bit cuckoo in the head".

Stylista: The Weight of the World

Who's that girl?
On this week’s episode of Stylista, Danielle’s full figure was pushed into the forefront. The fashion industry is notorious for celebrating folks such as Kate Moss and Twiggy for their slender figures, so way back at the season premiere when we were introduced to our esteemed contestants, we knew it was only a matter of time before Danielle’s weight went from being the elephant in the room to the guest of honor. To her credit, D seems at peace with her body and self-assured. It’s only when the crew gets invited to raid the legendary Elle fashion closet to choose outfits for a party hosted by Anne at Bungalow 8 that she starts freaking out.

And who can blame her? She lives in a house with a bunch of size two and fours and she works in an office populated by people one bout of the flu away from their ideal weight. Even the most confident person would fall under the pressure. And for the record, crying and locking yourself in the bathroom is a sure sign of cracking up. We’re just confused as to why Danielle didn’t take full advantage of the well-stocked closet. If this journey has taught our little fashion plates anything, it’s that accessories can make or break an outfit. D -- score some righteous shoes and uncover a dazzling piece of jewelry. Nicole Kidman wore a basic black dress to last year’s Academy Awards, but that multi-layered diamond necklace taking up her entire upper torso made the ensemble red-carpet worthy.

In a scene straight outta “The Devil Wears Prada,” the contestants flank Anne at her soiree to identify all of the incoming guests. Our remaining six prepared the night before for the challenge by studying the names and faces of everyone on the guest list. Well, some studied. Johanna made flash cards and quizzed herself until the wee hours, while her teammate Kate decided to stuff her face with popcorn and snuggle up in bed. When the moment of truth came, Kate was too busy checking out her lip gloss in the ceiling mirror to notice guests even attended the function and all of Johanna’s preparation failed her, while Team Megan quickly picked up the slack. It was a depressing sight.

Gossip Girl Podcast: The Magnificent Archibalds

Listen Now

Gossip Girl had its moments this episode, but some of the plots left us unimpressed. Have the characters really learned so little over the course of the last season and a half? Apparently not.

Nothing says Thanksgiving like your ex-lover and your newly eyeliner-free, formerly homeless daughter gathered arond the kitchen island and waiting for a feast.
It's Turkey Day in Manhattan, but all is not well. Blair is furious that Eleanor is apparently going to sully the holiday by announcing her engagement to Cyrus, so she (and Dorota) take to the streets. Jenny has been camping out at the van der Woodsen/Bass residence (and if you have to be homeless, it's best to have a penthouse to crash in), and she's surprised when the adults come home a day early and discover her. Lily also discovers the emancipation papers Jenny is toting around, and she calls Rufus. Meanwhile, Nate is surprised to find his father back in town, saying he wants to whisk the family away to his Caribbean hideaway. But an FBI agent who finds him through Vanessa lets him know that the Captain is up to no good. What will Nate do? Plus, Eric finds the files full of surveillance that Bart has amassed on the whole family, Serena decides to lie to and/or for her man, and Vanessa hopes to rekindle things with Nate. When. And to think we spend most of Thanksgiving just digesting!

Listen in as we express our horror at Serena's sartorial choices, and give our theories as to what the hell happened there. Plus, find out what put Mia to sleep, discover what caused Jackie to issue an alert, and learn how you, too, can date Nate Archibald!

90210 Recap: That Which We Destroy

Annie and Ethan from 90210 share a hug after the big lacrosse game

Last night's episode of 90210 was filled with lessons about family and friendship which, as with anything 90210-related, are more complicated than usual.

When we left off last week, Annie and Naomi's brawl was interrupted by a surprise appearance from their half-brother, Sean. The two girls stop arguing long enough to bring him into the house to introduce their new brother to Harry, who looks like a deer caught in headlights.

Annie and Ethan are taking their relationship to the next level and making out in the hallways. Ethan goes as far as saying, "We're so together we're like Siamese twins...except not related. And sexually attracted to each other." When Ozzie comes over to taunt Naomi, he sees the new couple making out and tries to offer comfort but Naomi basically tells him to get lost.

Harry has told Kelly about the events that took place at Annie's birthday party and wants Naomi and Annie to talk about their new brother. When the discussion turns to how Annie and Ethan went behind Naomi's back, Kelly tries to tell the girls not to let a guy come between them. She is, after all, an expert on the matter. "Girlfriends are like plants and guys are like cut flowers. They're pretty and smell nice...but they don't last," which is a moot point with these girls. They weren't friends for all that long to start with and let's face it, Naomi is a bitch.

Privileged: All About Overcompensating

Megan and Will
JoAnna Garcia as Megan – cute. JoAnna Garcia as Megan on a date with Will – super cute. Seriously, how can anyone still think that these two are not a great couple?

The latest episode of Privileged has Will and Megan trying to figure out where their relationship lies. And, for a girl who seems to have her stuff together, we can’t figure out why she reacted the way she did when Will shares that he is, and has been, seeing other women since him and Lily broke up.

Is it us, or did she seem jealous? So not Megan. And, what was with her trying to break it off before the relationship even got started. “Not cut from the same cloth” -- please. They are totally from the same cloth – opposite ends maybe – but, definitely the same cloth. Point being, they totally complement each other.

Will seemed to think so too. So much, he is willing to change his playboy lifestyle and be exclusive with her. Can he do it? Who knows? What we are more worried about is how this new relationship will last the six-month separation as Will heads to Brazil for his new job.

One Tree Hill Podcast: "We Three (My Echo, My Shadow and Me)"

Listen Now

Welcome to the One Tree Hill podcast where we finally, completely and (we hope) amusingly lose our minds. We all stayed late, watched the episode together, and recorded this as soon as the show ended. We’ll be doing the next one from a locked psychiatric ward.

What a dame!!

Lucas falls asleep while watching Casablanca, so he dreams of Tree Hill as Noirland—complete with Dan as an eeeeeeevil nightclub owner, Julian as his lecherous muscle, Mouth as a drunken gossip columnist, Haley as an imperiled chanteuse, Nathan as a stoic bartender, Skills as the plucky piano player, Brooke as a dangerous femme fatale, and Peyton as a fresh-faced damsel longing for love and freedom. Oh, and Lucas himself? He’s the owner of the hottest nightclub in North Carolina – Karen’s Café.

And we think it’s awesome. Hear why I’m suddenly Chad Michael Murray’s best friend, find out Jackie’s suggestions for future episodes, and discover why Mi is begging for someone to rescue her.

One Tree Hill Goes Noir -- And It's Amazing!

Mde. Of. Awesome.
Kudos to Chad Michael Murray -- last night's Chad-penned noir episode of One Tree Hill completely rocked! Excuse us while we fluff our curls, smooth our satin dresses, and transport ourselves back to the '40s to relive Lucas's dream...

Lucas falls asleep after a quick check-in conversation with Peyton, and since he's watching Casablanca, he drifts off to a '40's-style version of Karen's Cafe, complete with Nathan the bartender, Haley the singer, Mouth the gossip columnist, Skills the piano player, Peyton the tragic heroine, and Brooke the damsel in distress. And then there's Dan, who's the embodiment of evil, complete with a mustache!

We find out that Haley used to work for Dan's bar down the street, but she's much happier working at Karen's (which Lucas now owns). In the dressing room, Dan threatens Haley and tells her to come back and work for him... and then he kisses her while she's yelling at him! She slaps him. Of course, he enjoys it.
