ANTM Top 50, Shoelicious Pick, and Fudge minus the pudge

AMERICA'S NEXT TOP MODEL: DOWN TO 50

And then there were 50. You saw the lines that wrapped around the malls for this year's tryouts for America's Next Top Model. Well the choices are finally being narrowed down, and there are now only 50 girls left to vote for! Hundreds and hundreds of girls auditioned, so the experts and YOU have skinnied down the girls, I mean choices.. (no pun intended) Ok maybe a little pun.

Now, I am by NO means an expert nor was I a judge of any kind during this year's audition, but I can pick out a pretty girl when I see one, and I think I have narrowed it down to my Top personal five picks. One of the girls, I actually interviewed the day of the tryouts, had already been waiting in line for 3 hours!!! (#3 on the page) I hope she can go all the way and make her wait worth the while! Ok without any further ado here are my TOP 5.

My absolute #1 pick--she is gorgeous

This girl has such a cute look AND that smile!

This is the girl I interviewed who was soo sweet and stunning!

The other Tyra

Wholesome girl next door--Does anyone actually live next door to these girls?

So what do you think? I think any of these girls could be the Next Top Model. Don't forget to cast your vote on DC50tv.com! Who is your top 5?
