Canada's Next Top Model: Here's The Initial Rankings
By Brandon Hersey
May 28, 2007
Canada's Next Top Model returns this Wednesday at 8PM with 10 fresh new faces vying to become our next supermodel.
Season 1 winner, Andrea Muizelaar, decided that her future does not lie in the fashion industry. I find that sad because during the hiatus I received an email from Natalie (you might remember her cellophane pants) saying she's still trying to get into the career. Hopefully this crop of girls will decide to stay in the biz.
From the previews, it seems that the first photoshoot will have a 50s feel to it and they will be posing with male models. Who will be the first to go?
Gina
Current Ranking: 1 - Previous Ranking: None
Gina reminds me of Renee (ANTM) in a way, she has a very mature, elegant look about her. She may be more of an actress than a model, but I think she has the best body and the best face for the job. A makeover will do her good, though.
Jacqueline
Current Ranking: 2 - Previous Ranking: None
Jackie is gorgeous! Wow, she is stunning in her pictures. Now, the only possible problem I see is her eyes. I think she's cross-eyed, based on one of the preshow pictures I've seen. I don't mean this in a negative way, because we've already established that she's gorgeous, but will the judges send her home because lack of focus towards the camera?
Mo
Current Ranking: 3 - Previous Ranking: None
From what I've seen, she's the early favourite. She has a sparkle in her eyes, a smile that makes her look fierce but friendly, and I'm hoping she's got personality to back that up. My issue with her is her hair, but like with Gina, a makeover, particularly extensions, will do her wonders.
Sinead
Current Ranking: 4 - Previous Ranking: None
I like Sinead, she looks exotic which can only help her in this competition, but if she has the drive or not is up in the air. But since this is based on first impressions and all I have to work with is these pictures, I'm ranking her here for now.
Cori
Current Ranking: 5 - Previous Ranking: None
Cori is nice, but not my favourite. She looks great in profile shots but straight-on she looks like she's trying to hard, and that she's stale. However, I think she can work on that, and she'll definitely be a contender for the title.
Mika
Current Ranking: 6 - Previous Ranking: None
She reminds me of Sisi from Cycle 1. I had Sisi ranked #1 for most of the season but she didn't end up winning. But then, I look and see Brandi, one of my least favourites of the season. I think that Mika will be the bitch of the season and while I think she looks nice, I don't want her to stick around. Prove me wrong, selective editing, prove me wrong.
Tara
Current Ranking: 7 - Previous Ranking: None
This girl can't pose. At all. But she has a very nice headshot. But then, she has very ugly hair, which is an easy fix. Snip it off. That said, if Mika isn't the bitch, it'll be her. Does anybody see Jade, here? Yeah, I thought so. I just don't want the return of the ugly Jade/Renee head scarf.
Tia
Current Ranking: 8 - Previous Ranking: None
This one is a little biased based on my photography and graphic design knowledge, on the official site her photo has a huge gap at the top. She looks shorter than everybody else and in a modeling sense, that's not necessarily a good thing. I would need to see her other photoshoots before considering moving her up because for now she's not even on my radar for a winner because of an editing thing.
Rebecca
Current Ranking: 9 - Previous Ranking: None
I've been a Nelly Furtado fan for years, but I'd like to make it known that I hate her current hairdo and Rebecca pretty much has that emulated. She has the potential to move up on the scoreboard, but I think the hair makes her look like somebody trying to pose as Nelly, not a model. Makeovers can change that, though.
Steff
Current Ranking: 10 - Previous Ranking: None
Last season I selected Sylvie as my preshow favourite because she stood out, but she was the first one gone. For that reason I have to put her here, she reminds me so much of Sylvie, even more so after reviewing the season. She seems bored and she looks like she'll have an attitude. She's very vanilla in her pictures with the exception of the group shot, right now I think she'll be the first to go.
