This was my first season watching "She's Got The Look" and I must say I was very impressed. Your three finalist were well chosen and I hope all three go on to have wonderful careers.

I am interested in auditioning for next seasons show and would love more information on up coming auditions.

I hope the show has a long run.

Thank you,

Sidney

Definitely! The final three were the best of the lot. Shelly played the blame game from beginning to end. She was more annoying than a gnat. I'm glad that the judges wised up to her 'tude.

LeeAnne always reminded me of model Maud Adams. I found her focused in her goal (rather than indifferent to Shelly's snarky comments).

Cindy and Theresa were equally calm and mature in their dealings with the other contestants. All in all it was a good decision to remain with LeeAnne, Cindy and Theresa.

Loved that you choose Cindy who showed no drama and got along with everyone ! My husband is encouraging me to write you ! Would love your opinion on my photos at http://www.MySpace.com/LookForeverYoung. I am 55 years old but am told by friends, family, and strangers that I look 35 – a wonderful compliment. So I would like to audition for next season of "She's Got The Look" or seek representation now ! Thanks Kim !

Wow, I had thought about auditioning for next season, but the judges were so harsh this episode. I suppose part of modeling could include acting or live TV, but it seems to me very few models actually make the transition.

And the women are starting to look really tired and emotionally run down. It must be hard to be under the constant strain of competition for an extended period of time. They have ZERO time to recharge for their next "gig" like they would in real life!

As far as Shelley goes, if it comes out that she was a planted actress, I swear I will never watch this show again! I'd rather believe there really ARE 39 yr old women who are that childish! And while I don't much like LeeAnn, her confrontational attitute with Shelly is totally justified, NOT predatory!

I,too, was happy to see Shelly go. I really liked her in the first program. I thought she was very attractive. Later on, her personality detracted from her looks. LeeAnn is becoming more likable.

So glad to see Shelly go. I liked her the first episode, that didn't last long. What a despicable woman. Good ridence.

Overall, I enjoy the basis for this program and have watched weekly. Go Doloris – wow 72 & she kept up with the ladies 3 decades younger!

I have agreed with all but the acting scene episode. Actually, I don't see where any of the panel judges are qualified to judge acting abilities let alone to be so harsh. There was no flexibility allotted for a great acting scene — the car, the tumbles on the mattress, stooping under the door, the outfits were assigned, and they were assigned to come up with the slogan at the end while kicking down the door. I'm not quite following given the parameters how any of the judges wouldn't have come across as the jackasses themselves!

All else has been on target – I applaud the judges for giving consistent feedback and for all other challenges and portions of the program with one more tiny exception. I seriously doubt any judge would have 3 minutes to "practice" with Stern's new wife there — and THEY could easily get up there and just let the conversation flow like that. Now, of course they are gonna say yes they can. Well, let's come up with some of these real fun eliminations and challenges for the JUDGES — and see how well they do diving at the age of 47 over & over on a mattress onto concrete! I'm voting we see the JUDGES show — literally show the models how to do it better! I don't quite think we will see the nice President of the modeling agency (judges panel) diving on a mattress, tumbling over, getting up easily – it's not going to happen! But, wow is he ready to criticize the women giving this their all. They are away from their families, on national television having to be prepared to hear absolutely any type of criticism, and well let's be a little bit kinder. You yourselves, judges, had a starting place in your own careers.

Overall, I enjoy the show and will watch the finale and next season. Shelly was actually the best model. Unfortunately, Ms. Marks, the way you were presented on the show — whether accurate or not — showed an individual sacrificing the opportunity over a dislike for Leanne….and in the end….Leanne is still there. I felt your scenes and modeling photos were just as good if not at times better. Your attitude in the end got you voted out. It's unfortunate – had Leanne not been a contestant & you learned to listen more….you might have won the whole thing.

Out of the 3 remaining – it's tough for me to predict a winner. Theresa was strong in the early weeks & my favorite first 4 weeks. Cindy has been consistent and has a sweet personality. Unfortunately, the one who seems to be the most memorable is Leanne. Thus, I'm rooting for Theresa – but I think Leanne has turned out to be the one in latter weeks more visible and memorable to judges.

I liked Jamie! She should have been kept around longer (not necessarily won the whole thing but she had the right attitude and overall the face, body, and all that a model should be). She wasn't given a fair chance to adjust to the camera — she would have gotten a lot of modeling assignments/booked with many clients. I think this one may be a regret up the line for the nice man (and I do like the man) who is President of the modeling agency. In fact, he better think about calling her and offering her a job — she had potential (not as comfortable as she needed to be just yet — but a bit more training and she had the look – and gee I think that is sorta what this is all about).

I left a previous comment after the show last week. But I wanted to leave another one. I just googled Shelly and not only does she have a website. Which by the way her pictures are beautiful, she is also an actor. I am beginning to wonder if they had her on the show for all the drama she created. Her photos on her website show a woman with a ton of self-confidence. So I don't understand why on the show, she acted as if she had none. I really enjoy watching the show, but am I watching a real show or something put together to grab viewers. Then after doing some thinking (don't work so I have time to do that), I don't believe I've ever seen Kim Alexis or Beverly Johnson in 1 movie. What did that last challenge have to do with being a model. I'm sorry, but none of those judges can act. Even after Christie Brinkly dabbled in acting, she stunk, but she still models, doesn't she. Let's face it, all these reality shows are shams put together to entertain us, or so they think. I will watch the finale, because I've watch all the other shows. But out of the three left, Theresa deserves to win.

Yes, thank God Shelly's gone, I know they kept her strictly for the ratings, but I think one week earlier wouldve done it in the double elimination! Those are extremely intelligent judges and know what kind of person she is! What an internal ugly person she is. Put her on Big Brother or with Gordon Ramsey for some real entertainment,(just dont give her a gun!) I like Theresa, but hoping for LeeAnne just for putting up with Shelleys crap from day one. Seriously could anyone of you out there do any better? Maybe a few, but not many, get real, many of you wouldve went for the lobotomy kit.

SHELLY, I HOPE YOU READ THIS, HUNNY: Personally, I deem LeeAnne to be "actressy," and a potential back stabber to the other candidates, but Shelly, you should not have let that bother you (I know it's hard, but you gotta' block things out, sometimes). I believe that you (Shelly) would have been eventually "workable." I did notice, that you were saying "Oh really," as if you were finally not allowing criticism to bother you, and learning from it, as the judges told you to do, in the duration of episodes 6 and 7. Shelly, you are very beautiful, but your inability to block out any drama that may have occurred on (and behind the scenes) led to your plight; that upsets me, because I WANTED YOU TO WIN!!

Everybody should understand, prior to criticizing ANYONE on the show, that WE, THE VIEWERS, DO NOT NECESSARILY KNOW WHAT IS GOING ON BEHIND THE SCENES AND WE SHOULD GIVE THESE WOMEN CREDIT, BECAUSE THEY actually made it on a show, and have a chance at a career. All of them have potential. However, from what I see, if Shelly would have suppressed her feelings during the appropriate times, the judges and viewers would have seen the real, beautiful, talented, intelligent Shelly. Good luck to you, Shelly and don't let this stop you from engaging in and pursuing your dream Careers. You have a good resume, now and a good portfolio. Who knows, maybe you may get an acting or commercial part, now.

While I'm not a Shelley fan and I'm glad she didn't make the board, I must say that I think that someone (producer, editor, whomever) who has chosen to constantly show Shelley as her worst. Why oh why did you keep her over Delores, Jamie, Rachel, Raquel or any of the others voted off. She certainly didn't seem to get along with the other women, but I also think she was chosen to be this season's scapegoat. Not an attractive addition to my only favorite new series in the past few years. After seeing Shelley constantly shown as the bad guy and allowed to remain, I can't say I'll be back next season.

Shame on you Kim et al, I am very disappointed in Season 2.

TVLand, CANCEL THIS HORRID NEGATIVE SHOW!

I miss Delores. She was such an inspiration and I truly felt she had the look. I hope I look half as good as she does at her age. She's beautiful inside as well as out and that is what's most important.

Glad Shelly got booted off. She was a witch. I couldn't stand her.

I love this show and can't wait until next season. I'm thrilled that Shelly finally got the boot she deserved it. The final three ladies anyone of them deserve to win. I think they are all winners in their own right! Oh and to Shelly's friends on this blog well all I have to say is "like attracts like"

I agree. I wish you all would've gotten rid of Shelly a long time ago. She didn't want to be friendly with anyone. She was very selfish and rude. I almost jumped up and danced when she was finally eliminated.

To Shelly's friend,

A good friend helps a friend grow into a better person, not help her become more pathethic. Shelly just needs to stop being so damn negative.

Shelly is very immature for a 39 year old woman. She really needs to focus on developing herself and stop worrying about other people she do not like.

I cannot believe how nasty Beverly Johnson has been. Is she the Simon Cowell of SGTL? The first time my husband saw her on the show, he asked if she was a man in drag.

The last three standing are all beautiful women. What is striking to me in most of the comments I read is the inability to understand that Wilhelmina is NOT going to put their name on anyone that is a liability. My mom taught me that pretty is as pretty does and when anyone acts as though they are entitled in this particular business they are not going to make it. It's a contract, a two way street, not 'all about me'. If you aren't flexible in this industry and constantly willing to learn you simply won't get jobs.
Best of luck to the final three (even though the decision has already been made) and God Bless all your lives. It's been mostly fun to watch!

Shelly shot herself in the foot with her comment about Sean not representing her if Leanne wins (my guess is that he won't want to represent her anyway, given her attitude).

Look, Shelly, if you don't like Leanne-fine. You can't like everyone you meet, but business is business. You need to shut your mouth and do your job. Perhaps you could have gone farther in the competition if you had kept your thoughts to yourself and did what you needed to do instead of obsessing about Leanne. Rolling your eyes and smirking at critiques of her made you look immature and unprofessional.

This is a competition, and each person that you meet is a potential contact and/or resource for the future of any career that you may have. You have burned so many bridges that if you had to go to NYC to find a new agent, I don't know that anyone would take you on. Think about the American Idol finalists that didn't win but who built successful careers for themselves. Just because you don't win doesn't mean that there are no opportunities: unfortunately, your actions may have destroyed those opportunities for you.

Shelly, you are such a beautiful woman, but your behavior is all on tape, for every agent in existence to see. In the future, you need to think about your actions and how they will affect you down the line. There are plenty of fake, manipulative people out in the world, especially in the world of modeling, and you need to be able to handle it.

The photo shoots and challenges on this season's show have been really fun to watch – very creative & interesting! Way to go! Also, regarding being able to take criticism – It is so true for modeling as well as acting. A friend went to L.A. to pursue acting and found if you don't have thick skin, you'll never make it there.

I recorded this show just so I could have the happiness of watching Shelly get eliminated for a second time! You made my week.

I'm really glad Shelly got kicked off. She acts like a child. In my opinion, she shouldn't have made it this far. I like Leeanne. I think she is pretty and she is more mature than Shelly can even hope to be. My 10 year old doesn't even like Shelly. She is more mature at 10 than Shelly is at 47.

I love this show! I truly admire the upward trend of celebrating beauty of all ages, shapes, sizes and cultures. I believe there is great beauty in our differences and it's those differences that keep this world from being mundane. I am inspired by your show and as a young 40 year old mom from the Midwest, I would love the opportunity to audition for next season. What is the timeline for marketing the dates for next seasons auditions?

Interesting challenges, but I'm not sure the criticisms in the "acting" challenge were warranted. You're criticizing models who don't act for not being good actors?

But at least Shelly finally went home. I think that woman is quite disturbed.

I was so thrilled when they sent Shelly packing not because I think she is a over the board person having a constant bad day but she was completely wrong for the show and she really doesn't have the look. As for her constant crying about something everything she accused Leeann of being she was she was always playing for the camera and the crap that came out of her mouth just made me cringe…I wonder if she treats her friends and family that way not to mention her children no wonder she's single…I said my peace moving on.

I have never been so glad to see someone get the boot on this or any other reality show as I was last night when Shelly was eliminated. In fact, I enjoyed it so much that I watched the repeat to see it again!

I realize we see very limited amounts of the available footage, but she came across as one of the most obnoxious people I recall seeing on TV! I don't think I have ever seen a grown woman act so childish – did anyone else see that ridiculous pout when she was eliminated?!

I hope that she will use this as a learning experience and chance to grow. I find it sad that she has to knock other people down to make herself feel better. What she seemed not to realize is that she wasn't making Leeanne look bad, she was making herself look like an unprofessional, petulant, needy person.

Love the show!! Can't wait to see who wins!

Halle-fricking-lujah for finally getting rid of that puerile, childish, infantile Shelly! There is something SERIOUSLY WRONG with that woman and she needs to be on the right medication, seeing a good therapist. Her seething venom and one track mind waging war on LeeAnne was truly an act of crazytown. The remaining three are classier; any of them will be a much better representative for Wilmheim Models, though I'm hoping Cindy wins.

I think the panel made the right decision. I absolutely loved it the other week when Sean told Shelly to shut up and listen when somebody is trying to help her. Unfortunately for her, she much like my 6 year old, took it to heart for a couple of days then completely blew it off. Love the show! Keep up the good work!

I have really enjoyed this show, I felt sorry for Shelly at the start but her constant whinning about Leeann was getting on my nerves, unfortunetly she did not get over it in time. I did not like Ms. Johnson,s comments on 7/23 show she can be harsh has she forgotten she was a beginer one time herself.

Shel, dont let these Nay-sayers get ya down.
You are a beautiful woman! A wonderful Mom! and a good friend!I didnt see ANY of these keyboard comandos on ANY T.v Show, Much less making the finals!! Your career has just been givin a huge boost!! Congratulations girl!

Predators are very good at assessing another's weaknesses and using them to their advantage — this is true both in the animal kingdom and in the human race. Carnies are, by nature, predators; otherwise, they'd never make a living. Thus, despite the show's fancy editing, it doesn't take a rocket scientist to see that LeeAnne has simply been staying in character, finding the cracks in the softer Shelly's veneer and playing on them, to push her over the edge. Even more interesting is the fact that the judges haven't been able to see this, whilst simultaneously attempting to get the viewing public to believe that the people in their industry are deeper, more complex, and more intelligent than most have, to date, given them credit.

More importantly, this group of people can sit in judgment of how another holds a hand, or got a flowing cape caught around one's leg, or exudes too much athleticism, ad nauseum, and yet fail to even notice LeeAnne's continual need to squint in an effort to appear she's listening intently whenever they speak, or perhaps merely concentrating on the squint to prevent her normal theatric response. Deep. Very deep. Not. Perhaps they would have noticed if it had been a hard copy, in print in front of them. Or maybe in this industry the only thing that truly matters is to have someone look at you…even if they must squint to do it.

With someone like Shelly, you tell her to shut up and she does. Someone like LeeAnne simply plots another way to find your jugular. Put another way, raise your arms above your head to, say, a horse (a prey animal), and it runs the other way; do the same to a bear or cougar (predators), and they come in for the kill. Prey vs predator. Soft vulnerable woman vs typical carnie.

Oh, and let's not forget that these women were being made to jump through all sorts of hoops to prove their professionalism under all sorts of adverse conditions. And yet, where was the "professional" when it came to going to dinner together? Clearly, unable to follow her own advice and admonitions.

On many levels, the unfortunate reality of this reality show is that it proves the epitome is indeed the real deal. Shelly may have wanted to win, but given some time to get over what she perceives to be the loss of her dream, I'm confident that she'll recognize the fact that this industry truly is the shallow end of the gene pool.

By the way, if the show's resident carnie doesn't wish to be judged as such, she'd do well to stop playing the part. There's a reason why the general population doesn't welcome the carnies into our neighborhoods but for a brief, several-day stay for entertainment purposes.

I missed this episode and I am not going to watch it. I am really disappointed with thise season. There seems to little effort in training or working the contestants as models and more negativity and criticism.
I am also disillusioned. On a part of this web page some said Shelly had a web page and was an actress. Leanne is an actress and frankly their little fued smells suscipious. I can't help but wonder if it was played up for drama to make the show appealing. If so, it is a shame they had to do that. If Shelley was so bad, why not dump her sooner? I am not going to watch anymore. I really feel like this is not really reality contest, but a set up. If anyone deserves to win it would be Teresa which was kind of the top one from the start. It seems so obvious from the beginning I am tired of it. I really doubt Shelley has only been playing part. I know there are people like her, but it was so over the top, I can't help but think this was scripted.

I totally agree with you Kim. I used to work in the modeling industry and I was thrown for a loop many times. As you say, we have to hear a lot of bad stuff about ourselves but as the judges on the show have said your agent and the other professionals around you re on your side. If an aspiring model will keep that in mind, it makes it easier to hear the criticizims and the model is more willing to work on themselves.

shelly stop acting like the victim nd admit that everyrthing people say about you is said for a reason! Don't you care about your kids, they will watch this one day when they get older, I'm sure they will see this arn't you ashamed that they see you and your high school drama! You are just not model material!!!

Can you please block Shelly's remarks? Seriously, is there anyone out there that wants to hear hear any more sniveling sour grapes rants???

I just watched a video of last year's winner and was relieved to see that THOSE women were capable of acting their age—-mature!—and that they were truly rooting for each other.

I couldn't drive at the shoot??? Excuse me??
Oh yeah..and I remember Kim telling me that I would be a great tv host, and that I should pursue it when I got back home to Cleveland. I'm pretty sure Kim did not write this blog.
The fun and laughs you all saw between me and Cindy this week was pretty much how we were with each other at all times. Too bad that negative stuff gets more airtime for ratings.

I think Shelly is B E A U T I F U L! She may wear her heart on her sleeve and be a little insecure, but at least she seems to be real.
Shelly probably would have went further had she been able to deal better with LeeAnne.
Remember people… the viewing audience only sees what the editors WANT us to see.

I certainly hope Shelly matures…at her age it may be too late. She's too set in her ways where everything she says is right. How in the world would she be able to work with agents, clients, other models, etc. who dare to critique her? She will find fault in everyone else but herself. I certainly pity her children who have to grow up in such negativity. Shape up, Shelly. Face this disappointment and learn from it!

I am very glad Shelly was finally given the boot!! She stayed on the show far too long. Not only was she such a whiner on the show, she showed no sportsmanship whatsoever. I am glad that Leeanne gave everything Shelly directed at her right back to Shelly. Leeanne has been very professional every step of the way, accepting criticism with a grain of salt. While I admire both Cindy and Theresa, Leeanne definitely shows what it takes to be a great model!

BEVERLY HONEY YOU NEED TO CALM IT DOWN ABOUT 20 NOTCHES BOO. KEEP IN MIND THAT SOMETIMES IT IS NOT THAT DEEP SISTA. I'M WATCHING THE LAST FOUR AND HOW YOU CLOWNED EVERYBODY LIKE THEY WERE HALEY BERRY OR KATE BECKINSALE. I'M NOT SAYING IT WAS THAAAAT GOOD, BUT NEITHER ONE OF THE VIDEOS WAS AS BAD AS YOU MADE THEM OUT TO BE.

P.S. THE VIEWERS LOVED YOU IN THAT MOVIE. YOU KNOW THE ONE YOU NEVER DID. LMAO!!!

I think maybe we were working on different shows. Did Kim really write this!? Do you not remember that the leg up challenge winner was really close between me and LeeAnne? I came in a close second…conveniently edited out?
And..negative at the movie shoot? Cindy and I didn't stop laughing the entire day…we had a blast! Perhaps you didn't notice that I did the stunt for Cindy so that she didn't have to risk falling again? Oh, and the "stop picking on me" comment was from 3 or 4 shows before this one.
You absolutely chose the right three finalists. I agree with you 100%. I was TERRIBLE at playing the Reality Show Game. Shame on me. I'd like to know of any real life situations where models are treated the way women are treated on this show. Including, but not limited to, asking other models which model does not deserve to be at a casting. It was all absurd and not based on reality. You know it, I know it, and so does anyone in this world with half a brain.

I am sooooo happy that Shelly is gone. There is nothing pretty about her, her attitude is so negative and her snide remarks and smirks make her uglier yet. She blames eveyone but herself for her shortcomings. I am glad the judges finally saw through her.

You absolutely picked the right 3 finalists. Shelly was obnoxious, petty, immature and I'm surprised she made it as far as she did. LeAnne is a fake. I can see it from watching the show. Does she deserve to win, probably not, but it's not up to me. I'm not one of the judges.

I don't think any one of them did a good job in the acting challenge. They were awkward and they all looked very uncomfortable.

I checked out Shelly's exit interview and boy does she need to take a good hard look at herself in the mirror. She really thinks she's all that with a cherry on top. She's very attractive, but come on, her personality totally takes away from her looks. I'm 51 years old and I know I wouldn't make it on your show. Not because I don't have any self-confidence, but I know my limitations and as long as my family thinks I've Got The Look, that's good enough for me. Can't wait until the season finale. Love the show. Hope you guys have a lot more seasons ahead. I love your honesty. The spa party looked fabulous. What a great thing to do for them. Now that I wouldn't mind. Keep the great shows coming.

I think you picked the right three finalists! I think Shelly has some severe mental issues narcissim and histrionics come to mind. I knew a woman just like her in my life identical personalities. Everything is always other people's fault they are never to blame they will always see theirselves as victims and are just not coachable. That type just can't get past theirselves

I don't think Leeanne is indifferent just determined to not be nasty to Shelly. I think her commercial would have been better but I do think Shelly made her nervous. I'm glad you finally saw the footage of Shelly's true nature it blew my mind when you said you liked her personality. I looked at Shelly's exit interview she doesn't get that she was bad in the movie. I hope Shelly gets the help she needs before too long so she can have a more enjoyable life. yes you have to have a thick skin in modeling and acting. Sometimes you can be rejected for something as simple as the designer didn't have your look in mind when the outfit was designed. That's how you learn to deal with rejection.

I thought you looked great and yes the spa was a surprise but the models earned it. I thought ROC giving them the complete skincare set was fantastic! Have you ever used ROC? There are so many skin carelines out now it's confusing

I am glad that Shelly is gone. She was way too focused on LeeAnne instead of the competition. I think in the end she would have been very difficult to work with.
