SHANTRAX: Our good friend Cosmo Macero Jr. of the Boston Herald blogged today about America's Next Top Model, and he has made his prediction:
I called the winner (Adrianne Curry) on the first installment of America's Next Top Model on the night of the FIRST EPISODE. And now it looks like I'm going to do it again. Shandi the ex-junkie Walgreens worker - with a B&E on her rap sheet - caught my eye almost immediately six weeks ago. . . . Sure enough, the skinny little vixen has made an incredible transformation and looks to be a juggernaut from here on in. It's Shandi's contest to lose.

First off, Cosmo, Isaac Spaceman is not a "guest blogger". Sure, he only posts about as often as it rains in Los Angeles (i.e., rarely, but pretty damn frequently this week), but he remains the Billy Baldwin to my Alec (Ozzie Canseco to my Jose?), and is a full member of this blog.

As to the prediction itself, it's not going to be Shandi -- I just think her lack of body control and grace, as exhibited since episode one's runway fiasco, is eventually going to bite her in her too-skinny ass.

I'm going with April, who just seems to have it all -- looks, moves, discipline, work effort and, increasingly, personality.

(In comparison: Camille's too much of a bitch; Mercedes is too street and not enough couture; Yoanna is too cold; and Shandi, ultimately, not adult enough.)

Your mileage, of course, may vary. Watch the damn show.
