Tyra. First i love your show! i just got into it and i love how you attack the issues in all kinds of people. Not just black or white but different ethnic backgrounds. But i do have one Wish. Im 5'2''. yes thats short but i have always wanted to be a model. im 18 and my whole life i have been shot down at what I wanted to do, and i have just been doing what other people wanted me to do. many people have commented on my eyes. my eyes are about a yellow green. very different. But being short stops me from showing my talents but i do draw and sometimes sing. But i have been made fun of my height. i couldnt do things i wanted cause of it as well. I truly wish someone would discover the beauty in short people. America is not just skinny women its full of tall people, short people, skinny people and bigger people. All of it is beautiful but i dont think enough of america is being represented. I just wish i could see myself or even someone that is different on ANTM. i love that show and i always will no matter what.

I honestly thought Allison would win. I was really upset that she didn't. Teyona didn't even deserve to be in the top two Aminat did. Teyona's commercial was horrible. She didn't know what she was supposed to say and honestly her Covergirl picture wasn't that great. Aminat's picture wasn't the best, but she had the best commercial. Allison did good in both her picture was beautiful I loved it. Teyona looked like a robot in the runway and when Ms.J was dancing she stiffened up and just walked by. Allison did so good on the runway her walk was better than Teyona's and when Ms.J danced she danced too and had fun. Allison is the winner in my heart there is no reason why Teyona should have won and Teyona isn't a good role model she has a bad additude, is to cocky, and everyone will think that you have to look enorexic to be pretty and her collarbone is disgusting (not in a good way) I love you Allison you did a great job!

I think the right girl won. I did like Allison also but, she needed a lot of work. Her runway walk needed much improvement, her smile was similar in every picture and she just wasn't as devoted to improve as Teyona is. I enjoyed this season very much.

Dear Tyra, I understand that you get hundreds of comments a day and I hope you read mine along with my question... is cycle 13 of ANTM going to be the only petite cycle? I am a 19 year old 5'4" girl of eastern european, russian and canadian blood living in the middle of nowhere pennsylvania and my number one dream for as long as I can remember was to be a model but my one major problem is my height. I have 3 brothers who are all between 6'0 - 6'5" but I somehow got served with the short end of the stick you could say. I was always made fun of for being so pale, having almost black hair, a 5 finger forehead, different shape to my eyes, different shaped lips and a heart shaped face. I would tell myself that I was just like the ugly duckling and that one day people would see what me and my mother see. There isn’t a day that goes by that she doesn’t tell me to model my face... even though she doesn’t know how hard it is to get into but she still believes in me when others don‘t. The one thing that gives me confidence and strength even though I am very short seeing that there are girls just as awkward and unique as me in the fashion industry. I missed finding out about cycle 13 until my friend told me when it was too late... So I guess my main point of this is to not ask you out of desperation but out of hope and a second chance for me and other petit girls to have a chance to be on ANTM and to get in the modeling industry with your help.

Im glad Teyonna won. I really didnt like Allison because she was boring and she always looked like a deer caught in the head lights. She didnt really have personality.

trya i think you picked the wrong girl i think allison should have won but it was up to u anyways love the show!!!

I'm sorry Tyra as much as i'm your biggest fan in Malaysia here and i just want to say you dissppointed me at all. I don't think Teyona should win the title, i think Allison should have won because doesn't Allison have the doll like looks that Fashion industries obssess with it now, look at Gemma Ward and Jessica stam they are so successful because of their doll like look. Anyway is your call, You want Teyona win and now you have it. Personally i think Allison will be way more successful that Teyona in the future and time will tell.....I can see Allison be a faces for all the high fashion brands outhere starting right now, Teyona maybe she will be but not much. I am so disappointed in you Tyra.

Okay.. as America's Next top model as teenagers we are also looking for America's next top IDOL AS A MODEL. And honestly tyra I think that Allison would of been a better role model and model for kids, teens and young adults. If you think about it... she is a good model because... 1. She was the most abnormal looking one 2. She went to can't cat walk to CAN cat walk. (learning and bettering themselves) 3. Out of all of the girls she IMPROVED the most! Teyona wanted it. But Allison EARNED it. but ... it's not my choice or America's choice.. it was the judges choice. and I think that Allison would be VERY popular in japan. considering I'm asian and I like those anime looking eyes of hers no matter what she's my model and my idol... she ROCKS!.

From almost the beginning, I thought Tyra and the judges favored Allison and Teyana over everyone else. Even though Allison couldn't walk (even the go sees commented on this), she made it into the top three. Aminat was my favorite but her look reminded me of Dani (another ANTM winner) and I assumed therefore that she would not be chosen. The winner was no surprise.
