America's Next Top Model, Cycle 12

[eleven girls return to the panel to receive the verdict for the third elimination]

Tyra:
[to Sandra, Celia, Aminat, Fo, London, Allison, Kortnie, Nijah, Teyona, Tahlia and Natalie] Eleven beautiful girls stand before me but I only have ten photos in my hands and these photos represent the ten of you will still be in the running towards becoming America's Next Top Model. So I will be calling one girl at a time based on how she performed individually in her photo. The girl that performed best will be displayed as digital art and her partner in the picture will be cropped out! [flips over Sandra's photo first] Sandra! [Sandra happily comes down to collect her photo making her way in between Nijah and Teyona] Congratulations. You're still in the running towards becoming America's Next Top Model.

Sandra:
[to Tyra] Thank you!

Tyra:
[flips over Aminat's photo second] Aminat. [Nijah smiles whilst Aminat comes down to collect her photo] Congratulations.

Aminat:
[to Tyra] Thank you very much.

Tyra:
[flips over Tahlia's photo third] Tahlia. [Tahlia comes down to collect her photo]

Tahlia:
[to Tyra] Thanks.

Tyra:
[flips over Fo's photo fourth] Fo! [Fo comes down to collect her photo] Congratulations, Fo.

Fo:
[to Tyra] Thank you.

Tyra:
[flips over Celia's photo fifth] Celia! [Celia comes down to collect her photo]

Celia:
[to Tyra] Thank you so much.

Tyra:
[flips over Kortnie's photo sixth] Kortnie. [Kortnie comes down to collect her photo] The artist. Congratulations. You're still in the running towards becoming America's Next Top Model.

Kortnie:
[to Tyra] Thank you.

Tyra:
[flips over London's photo seventh] London. [London comes down to collect her photo] Congratulations, London.

London:
[to Tyra] Thank you.

Tyra:
[flips over Teyona's photo eighth] Teyona. [Teyona comes down to collect her photo]

Teyona:
[feeling relived] Hooh!

Tyra:
[to Teyona] Hooh! Your hair looks so much better. Congratulations, Teyona.

Teyona:
[to Tyra] Thank you.

Tyra:
[to Allison, Nijah and Natalie] The next name I am going to call is... [flips over Natalie's photo ninth] Natalie. [Natalie comes down to collect her photo] Congratulations, Natalie. You're still in the running towards becoming America's Next Top Model.

Natalie:
[to Tyra] Thank you.

Tyra:
[to Nijah and Allison in the bottom two] Will Allison and Nijah please step forward. So you two stand before me for very different reasons. Allison, when you walk into a room people, go "Whoa. That's different, that's interesting, I've never seen that before." So the judges go "Hmm that's something special there." But what we didn't see in your photo was something special there. Is it a fluke that happens in pictures sometimes? Because what they saw today was quite depressing for them and then we have Nijah. What they see in your pictures is a beautiful girl but they're trying to get back to that girl in the first week. That photo was so beautiful, so sparkly, such shine in those eyes, such tension in your body and they wanna see that girl. So who stays? [flips over Allison's photo tenth and last] Allison. [Allison hugs Nijah before coming to collect her photo] I don't think it's a fluke. You just need to find your light and not rely on those pretty big eyes. Congratulations. You're still in the running towards becoming America's Next Top Model.

Allison:
[to Tyra] Thank you.

Tyra:
[to Nijah] So you have some hard competition. That's why you're going home.
