We're not ashamed to admit we have a total girl crush on Seattle's entry in this cycle of America's Next Top Model. Elina, the Bjorkish bombshell who's dedicated her life (all 18 years) to animal liberation and utters reality TV gold like, "I am just a sexual person" is rapidly winning us over. If that makes us shallow, so be it. Elina left out her theories on pants and gender equality this episode and got......

Seattle’s reality TV lovers are loving life right now. Along with Blayne on Project Runway, we can add a hopeful on America's Next Top Model to our cadre of locals to root for (or laugh at, depending on your feelings for Blayne): Elina. We agree with Seattlest Katelyn's first blush reaction to Elina. She's "weird and pretty enough to have made it through the first double-episode, and Elina smiles with her eyes!". We'd like to......

Can you walk? Are you skinny, and can you pose your body in bizarre ways that come across as really sexy and alluring in photographs? Then maybe head out to the Doubletree Guest Suites Seattle Airport/Southcenter next Thursday, Aug. 12, and get your ANTM face on. All interested models should show up camera-ready. This isn't Seattlest's Next Top Model, it's America's Next Top Model. Last year, there were 600 women at the audition, so you're......

Despite a recent rash of violence surrounding America's Next Top Model in Seattle, this Seattlest decided it would be okay to host an ANTM-viewing party tonight. Though there was a fair amount of yelling two cycles ago because our hatred for Natasha and last cycle because our devotion to Heather (the model with Asperger's Syndrome), were not shared by our friends, we figured that since previous parties the wife organized took place without any......

It's been just over a week since we reported to you about a Columbia City woman who almost died after being stabbed during an argument about America's Next Top Model. Tyra Banks' reality TV show was at the center of another fight this weekend that resulted in a 911 call. A brawl broke out between a local brother and sister in their 20s, when the sister said it was her turn to watch her......

We always knew that Tyra Banks and her train wreck of a reality TV competition, America's Next Top Model (ANTM), was an acquired taste. You either love it (and like Seattlest, you only mention that to your closest friends...and you guys), or you hate it. But a Seattle woman took that disdain for Tyra and Miss Jay's crazy glitter eyebrows a little too far, when she stabbed an acquaintance for watching ANTM too loudly.......

Seattlest watches as a S.L.U.T. is born and Seattle Flickr users go nuts over a local art installation. A restaurant critic demands a Diner's Bill of Rights over a gnat next to her drink, and, in lieu of a Portlandist, Seattlest debates with itself over the identity of the Northwest's crown jewel. Seattlest also joins the guys from Fantagraphics for an ill-fated gun party in the woods. LAist saw national headlines soar this week with......

New means of communication have always ushered in radical changes in our societal structure. The internet, the television, and the telephone have irrevocably changed our day-to-day existence. The latest communication method our society will have to prepare for is TyraMail. What is TyraMail, you ask. Is it some super-fast, spam-free, ultra-secure tool? Well frankly, no. It's the name for the notes super model Tyra Banks sends to the contestants in episodes of America's Next Top......
