I personally think that Melrose deserved it she took great pictures more than the other girls and she was the master of challenges many girls were jealous of her
CariDee was a great winner but it was so obvious that Melrose should have one. She definitely had way more determination and model potential than CariDee
Let's be real Caridee won because she had the relatable sympathetic story line and Melrose was the secondary Villain behind Monique and the Villain never wins. It's not traditional American narative.
nah her past pictures were better and so was her covergirl commercial/shot. The villain never wins narrative can't be true because lisa won the all-star cycle and nicole won cycle 5 despite being annoying and resting on pretty.
@@mykillshots664 but Eva redeemed her image episode one after being confronted by everyone at casting for being a bitch. the rest of her storyline was her friendship with Ann. So that’s not the same. I’m not even sure who the villain was in C3. Maybe Amanda??? lol
Melrose deserved the win. She slayed the whole season, her pictures, her challenges, her overall look, I think she improved as a person too from beginning to now and that, to me, is also what ANTM is about. Not just growing as a model but as a person too.
I’ve always liked Cari Dee, but honestly saying she’s more like the actress kinda girl than a model, Melrose deserved to win, great pictures, personality, knowledge of the industry.
Melissa Rose was a bully,insecure,phony with fake enthusiasm..who had a meltdown because she didn’t win the dance challenge in Spain because she won several challenges in the past on the show she thinks that every win is suppose to be for her and a neurotic narcissist who thought because she knew top fashion designers and take good pictures who thought at the end she had it in the bag..sorry Melissa Rose ..Caridee is authentic, has a personality, relatable and people are drawn to that ..and she deserved it👏🏾👏🏾🌹🌹🌹
I feel both deserved to win either way regarding their overall performance, yet I believe the judges preferred Caridee's charm over Melrose's 'perfectionist' personality for their final decision.
Many people think that Melrose should have won but ANTM doesn't rely only on beauty, walk, and jobs well done, there are other qualities that are critical in order to win for example you could have walked the catwalk better than Tyra and Naomi Campbell, the best pictures taken, the best makeup, the best looks but if you ar missing other characteristics you will NOT win. Throughout the entire competition, every single detail counts including Sentiments, feelings, looks, concentration, intelligence, friendliness, behavior, love for yourself, industry, and others, respect, quick thinking, extreme passion for the industry, charisma, collaboration, and presence, among many others and these are all measured throughout the competition and if you lack in any of the critical characteristics it takes only one to get you out and not win. They both were great but Caridee nailed more.
At first I liked Melissa (MelRose) but as the season progressed I started to not like her at all. She was all about bragging about her life before top model and she also seemednlike an in the closet racist. The judges obviously saw those traits and it caused her to be second place, not to mention that she looks too old, and was the oldest contestant. I personally think that the ANTM of cycle7 winner should have been Amanda who came in 4th place.
Honestly , to this day I still can't believe that Melrose didn't win. Sure, Caridee had a more youthful face, but her runways wasn't as good as Melrose's. Sure Caridee was sweet as opposed to Melrose. But , Melrose was misunderstood because she was brutally honest. She was called a bitch by the other girls because they felt threatened by her ability. And honestly , self confidence is part of being a model. People who are confident of themselves have no reason to suck up to others or act nice ( yep, some of the models in the show ( all cycles) were ' innocent white lotuses', who acted nice , but were full of shit. I preferred the straight forward Melrose to those fake people) I love Caridee ( Michelle was my fav, followed by Anchal ) , but If ANTM selects a model based on how nice they are, then the show should be named ' America's next nicest model' not ' America's next top model'.
@Peter-hz5nk - We'll agree to disagree. I didn't like Melrose's attitude and that might be why she didn't win. Her attitude sucked and Tyra could have felt like that might be a deterrent in her getting hired for jobs.
@@MLMLW Who cares about the attitude.. it's who was a better model overall. Look at Tyra and Naomi, they both are supermodels but have shtty attitudes sometimes. lol
+Alison Rozova I agree with you but this is a reality show. You can't take the title that seriously. The winner has to be likable. You're not really picking a model, you're picking a reality show winner. You can't have the bitch that everyone hates win it. It's a really bad choice for the makers of the show. Pretty simple. And Caridee was good enough for it. Melrose was just a bit better.
shakimaro I agree I'm a Melrose fan but... It's true. Anyway Melrose was a better model than the girl without personality. Rumour has it caridee don't have fame before that.
People really think that Melrose, someone who's 5'7 that photographs old should've won? Also Caridees pics were really underated, she also didn't bully people.
Jada Jackson I dont think she was fake, I think the confident that showed was misunderstood. If you see the whole season, you can see if Melrose win something the other girls didn't congrats or feel happy for her.
Totally bullshit that Caridee won!! Still couldn't move on!!! Melrose was on fire the whole competition! She worked so hard till the end. Not only photos of her but also her catwalk was amazing! I would be so embarrassed if I hire Caridee for my fashion show!Caridee can't walk like model.
I think if Melrose had a better attitude she really would have had a chance to win I'm not even going to lie her photos were beautiful too. But she was doing way too much which is why I feel she lost.
Melrose should to won C7,She is really model,CariDee was so good in C7.but only Melrose like Top model,her catwalk and photo is so amazing. If anyone think She is bitch,I want to say (for C6 Jade's say) This is America's Next Top Model,not America's Top best friend. every cotestants wants to won. And in final Week,I think CariDee and Eugena is really bad,about they do samething to Melrose (like C9 Saleisha and Chantal talk someting about Jenah) And Many people say Melrose is so old,but I think other antm contestions is so old in they're cycle:like C2-Yoanna and April,C3-Amanda,C5-Lisa,C14-Krista,Cl5-Chelsey and Jane,Cl6-Kasia,C17-Dominique,C18-Louise,but they're good contestants and model.
Years later and even with being a huge hometown fan of Caridee watching the cycle again as an adult Melrose was the clear winner and very misunderstood. I can’t believe how much bias I held. She’s not a bitch but rather a fierce competitor.
Lol Caridee was so much better than Melrose. Post antm melrose carreer is better but in the competition it was Caridee. Still the best covergirl photo today
I like caridee’s attitude but I love melrose’s performance
CariDee’s performance is equally as good, if not better
I personally think that Melrose deserved it she took great pictures more than the other girls and she was the master of challenges many girls were jealous of her
Caridee portfolio is by far better than Melrose...
BUT SHE LACK THAT MODEL APPEAL FOR ME
CariDee was a great winner but it was so obvious that Melrose should have one. She definitely had way more determination and model potential than CariDee
This did not age well
Clock that tea
Let's be real Caridee won because she had the relatable sympathetic story line and Melrose was the secondary Villain behind Monique and the Villain never wins. It's not traditional American narative.

Yup perfect explanation. Their photos were neck and neck yet melrose rocked the final runway. Melrose should have won
Eva won tho.
@@mykillshots664 but Eva redeemed her image episode one after being confronted by everyone at casting for being a bitch. the rest of her storyline was her friendship with Ann. So that’s not the same. I’m not even sure who the villain was in C3. Maybe Amanda??? lol
@@vincentarmijo1409 Nicole Cycle 5 was never painted as the villain. That was reserved for Bre and Jayla.
One of the best winner reactions ever to me.
Love Caridee ❤
Melrose deserved the win. She slayed the whole season, her pictures, her challenges, her overall look, I think she improved as a person too from beginning to now and that, to me, is also what ANTM is about. Not just growing as a model but as a person too.
As I got older, I realized Melrose deserved this win hands down. 😢
I’ve always liked Cari Dee, but honestly saying she’s more like the actress kinda girl than a model, Melrose deserved to win, great pictures, personality, knowledge of the industry.
Melrose at 5'7 and not having the face for beauty modeling isn't particularly modelesque either...
Melissa Rose was a bully,insecure,phony with fake enthusiasm..who had a meltdown because she didn’t win the dance challenge in Spain because she won several challenges in the past on the show she thinks that every win is suppose to be for her and a neurotic narcissist who thought because she knew top fashion designers and take good pictures who thought at the end she had it in the bag..sorry Melissa Rose ..Caridee is authentic, has a personality, relatable and people are drawn to that ..and she deserved it👏🏾👏🏾🌹🌹🌹
Melrose could be anything, but nobody can deny she was a better model...
CariDee was and still is the better model
Caridee was the overall package to me.
Melrose won
Till today 2018 I still think that melrose was the winner anybody else lol
Melrose was fake. That's why she didn't win in IMHO
Heck no. It is so satisfying to see her lose every time I replay this. She absolutely deserved to lose for being the not nice person that she was.
Nah! Pretty much you’re alone in that.
@@dakotad70she was being real, this is a modelling competition not a who's the nicest person competition
No she was not the winner at alllllllllllllllll I’m glad she lost
My favorite 2 finalists; sugar and spice. Loved both of them, I would have been over the moon if either won.
Melrose was robbed!!! She was clearly the superior one
Right before this Tyra said to Caride that she would never book a walk with the performance she did in the second challenge and yet she won... '-'
She plays too much games.
I'm in the minority, but I think that Caridee deserved her win! When they got to Spain I knew that she would win.
love you caridee!you deserve it!!
Melrose is not the winner but she is in my eyes a model
Sony SAB She ain't modelesque though
OMG I grew up watching this show since the beginning! I loved this one because of the identical twins they were so beautiful 😍
poor Melrose. I can`t stand her crying. She was rock and so smart. She should be a winner. sorry for my bed french.
My Favorite Winner reaction. So genuine .
CariDee so deserved to win
I feel both deserved to win either way regarding their overall performance, yet I believe the judges preferred Caridee's charm over Melrose's 'perfectionist' personality for their final decision.
I guess I’m the only one who thinks that a Caridee deserved to win.
You're not. I'm happy for CariDee.
She was the best choice
No, she deserved it. Melrose had more potential in the industry but Caridee def had the better portfolio.
Many people think that Melrose should have won but ANTM doesn't rely only on beauty, walk, and jobs well done, there are other qualities that are critical in order to win for example you could have walked the catwalk better than Tyra and Naomi Campbell, the best pictures taken, the best makeup, the best looks but if you ar missing other characteristics you will NOT win.

They both were great but Caridee nailed more.
I guess I have to disagree with everyone else. I think Caridee definitely deserved to win.
Over a decade later and I’m still bitter as fuck about this
melrose is the real win
Melrose should've won, hands down
Melrose is pretty, but she came across as being mean spirited and jealous. Plus she enjoyed making fun of everybody. Caridee had more charisma.
Melrose

I may be late in replying. Wasn't Eva the villain of Cycle 3 and yet she still won?
People really think that Melrose, someone who's 5'7 that photographs old should've won? Also Caridees pics were really underated, she also didn't bully people.
Melrose is 5'9"...
Melrose deserved it the other girls her attitude sucked the whole way through🤷🏾♀️🤷🏾♀️
Caridee is the model who don't caught the attention. Easy to forget. A nice person but it's true.
Carlos Ch but melrose was so fake and caridee is so funny and more likeable
Jada Jackson I dont think she was fake, I think the confident that showed was misunderstood. If you see the whole season, you can see if Melrose win something the other girls didn't congrats or feel happy for her.
Jada Jackson Whatever you may think of her, it's the modeling industry not who is nicer
^^Melrose.
I Love Caridee, her face is truly a model❤️❤️
Totally bullshit that Caridee won!! Still couldn't move on!!! Melrose was on fire the whole competition! She worked so hard till the end. Not only photos of her but also her catwalk was amazing! I would be so embarrassed if I hire Caridee for my fashion show!Caridee can't walk like model.

@LailaArmilla Yes !!! melrose is the winners of the EVERY ANTM
melrose and laura same reaction in finale they didn't win but still love them like allison, but i do agree that nicole should win over laura.
Melrose wAs
Robbed
No she wasn't 😂
But she LOST though
Rewatching this cycle I realized how much I love cardi Dee I’m happy for her. I do feel like melrose was misunderstood though
Such an undeserved winner......
I love that caridee won
What's caridee height? And melrose?
Melrose should to won C7,She is really model,CariDee was so good in C7.but only Melrose like Top model,her catwalk and photo is so amazing.
If anyone think She is bitch,I want to say (for C6 Jade's say)
This is America's Next Top Model,not America's Top best friend.
every cotestants wants to won.
And in final Week,I think CariDee and Eugena is really bad,about they do samething to Melrose (like C9 Saleisha and Chantal talk someting about Jenah)
And Many people say Melrose is so old,but I think other antm contestions is so old in they're cycle:like C2-Yoanna and April,C3-Amanda,C5-Lisa,C14-Krista,Cl5-Chelsey and Jane,Cl6-Kasia,C17-Dominique,C18-Louise,but they're good contestants and model.
Melrose was robbed 😭😭😭
I think if melrose was bubbly with a likable personality she would of won hands down
MELROSE IS THE TRUE WINNER !!!!
Caredde really deserved to win ....
Melrose was stronger model too
Fuck yes!
I'm sooo glad that caridee won cycle 7 ahahaha, that's wat u get melrose
Alexis 4ever shut up
go to hell melrose was 100% better
melrose should have won..
Melrose is the real winner of cycle 7.
She and Lisa D'amato bare a resemblance but Lisa was prettier.
Melrose was way prettier. She don't even look like Lisa. Lisa looks like she can be my grandma lmao. Melrose had such a beautiful ass face imo.
Years later and even with being a huge hometown fan of Caridee watching the cycle again as an adult Melrose was the clear winner and very misunderstood. I can’t believe how much bias I held. She’s not a bitch but rather a fierce competitor.
Don't use bad language. It's rude.
Lol Caridee was so much better than Melrose. Post antm melrose carreer is better but in the competition it was Caridee. Still the best covergirl photo today
