THE SCORES
Lauren: Personally I consider myself the biggest Emma fan on the whole competition, I am very happy she reached this point and after looking at her porfolio I was reminded how good she really is. Honestly I scored this shot by shot and not thinking on who I wated to win and the truth is Doutzen came on top, she was most times on the top of her game while Emma was going all over the board most of the time. I love Emma but it's only fair if I give Doutzen the win.
Natalia: Well, Doutzen has always been a high ranker amongst the judges, but I forgot that I wasn't nearly as impressed with her early on as everyone else seemed to be. I had said that she was fairly consistent, but I don't know if I'd say she was with me. I know I wasn't always as blown away as others were, at least not until that Shoe challenge. Then I was like, "wow!" and her submissions were clearer and more thought out, with the exception of one miss in that animal challenge which was terrible. How could someone so good be so bad lol.
I think with Emma, she was very hit and miss for me. I was annoyed with her excuses in the begining, but think she started to find her groove and moved well within it. She actually submitted some pretty amazing shots that I actually had forgotten about... like that elegant shot..which was STUNNING. Emma was either really amazing, or really terrible.
Again, I am surprised that it was so close for me. It's late though, and I could have added wrong since I didn't use a calculator and I'm still kind of hung over from last night...
Previously I had voted for Doutzen to be the winner based on her consistency...seeing her portfolio though made me second guess that. Really, I wasn't a fan at first and couldn't understand what others saw that I didn't.
Then, reviewing Emma's pictures and how unique she was/is, really impressed me. I forgot that she pulled out some really amazing shots and I remember being the odd one out because I liked some of her pictures that others didn't seem to like... and vice versa really when I think of that cover shot.
Anyhow, my vote is going to have to go for the girl who I think grew the most.... and that's Doutzen. I went from a hater to a lover and she's really blown me away these last few rounds with the exception of that one week.
Heidi: My vote is for Doutzen to win All-Stars. Doutzen, you have impressed me in ninety percent of your photo shoots! I've adored you as a player, and I really think you deserve to win All-Stars. Emma, you were a gem, and a real sweet heart, but I'm afraid your pictures didn't impress me as much as Doutzen's did over all. Second place is nothing to be upset about, whether the other judges vote you that way, or it's just me, I don't know... lol but Well done, both of you! Regardless of who wins, You should be very proud of how you did in this game!
Cruise: Congratulations to both of you. Emma I wasn't around for Season 1 to judge you, so this was a true treat to judge you in All-stars. You've introduced me to a model that I find different, beautiful and intriguing. Thank you for that.
Doutzen, I think I liked you more in All-stars then I did in your original season. lol That just means that you've grown on me. You truly are a beautiful model who is very versatile and has a great over all look, with clothes on or off. That is why I pick Doutzen to win.
Ana: When I first went into this season, I had my favorites. We all do – we’re all human. I found that Doutzen was starting out very well but not blowing me away at first. Emma, was kind of living up to what I expected. I wanted her in the competition because of her edginess. To me, All-Stars was about not only past winners, but past models who stood out for various reasons. Emma was definitely a standout and marched to the beat of her own drummer.
As the competition progressed, Doutzen continued to hand in outstanding submissions and maintained her low (in this case low is good, lol) point status. Emma began gaining on the others. She was a bit inconsistent, landing herself in the bottom 2 four times over the course of the competition, but mainly she was impressing me more and more.
At shoot 11, Emma handed in her Tokyo Street Style shoot and blew us all away, earning first call-out hands down. Doutzen, on the other hand, fumbled, but managed to stay out of the bottom two. The next round Doutzen was back at the top but shoot 13, she fell flat again and this time WAS in the bottom two. Emma kept her momentum and never looked back – UNTIL the final runway, where I feel she really blew it.
Overall, I was really impressed with Emma this season – as well as Doutzen. I guess the difference is I expected Doutzen to be a top contender but Emma was a real surprise and many times a breath of fresh air.
Doutzen's success in this game was pretty amazing - winning first callout eight times, and staying at the top of the leaderboard, she truly dominated this season. Emma was the dark horse, but truly earned her spot in the final two. She earned first callout twice and came in 2nd four times.
This was a truly remarkable season, and my final scores were much closer than I ever thought they would be. Beating out Emma by only 3 points, my choice for winner of FanFun Models All Stars is…DOUTZEN!
