In the commercial, Ann has a showdown with the Wheat Thins. Don’t worry, she wins! For some reason, this commercial reminds me of those old Doritos commercials starring Ali Landry.

Ann is also all over the Wheat Thins website. Good for her to land such a big campaign! Sure, Wheat Thins aren’t sexy, but it pays the bills!

Nico first appeared on the scene in season two and was played by Jowharah Jones. There’s no stated reason for the recast, but Ausiello tells us Yaya will appear in several episodes this season and will get caught up in a new mystery!

This is great news for Yaya, as it will be wonderful exposure for her acting career. Plus, Ugly Betty is a really fun show!

The pets’ outfits are all original and are auctioned off after each fashion show.

Jaslene appears at the 1:00 mark. She’s the first model out, walking with an adorable pup named Lady!

Paws for Style is a great idea and is for a great cause. I think dressing up pets is usually silly, but if it’s for something good, why not?

Tyra’s character is somehow connected to Hilary Duff’s character. Hilary is doing a multiepisode guest spot as a famous actress who wants a normal college experience and becomes Vanessa’s roommate at NYU.

My guess? Tyra plays Hilary’s overbearing manager or agent or similar.

Tyra has appeared as herself in a few films recently, including Hannah Montana: The Movie and Tropic Thunder. Her last real acting gig was a guest role in 2004 on American Dreams.

However, nothing will ever top the 2000 ABC Family classic Life-Size, which also starred Lindsay Lohan. How could you forget an instant classic like “Be a Star?” Let me refresh your memory…

Tyra will make her GG debut in the 4th episode of the season. If this is true, it’s a smart move. Cycle 13 of America’s Next Top Model will premiere on September 9th. Gossip Girl premieres on September 14th.

Tyra isn’t the first ANTMer to appear on Gossip Girl. Cycle 7 winner CariDee English appeared in an episode briefly as one of Bart Bass’s many model girlfriend and Ann Markley was in an episode, as one of Chuck Bass’s girlfriends.

Alexis Arquette also appears in the episode, along with a female-to-male transgender and a transgender mayor. The segment was inspired by Chaz Bono’s decision to come out as a transgendered person. Alexis is very articulate and compassionate on television and this entire episode is respectful and informative. I’m impressed, Larry King.

Isis appears around 11:25. She talks about why she doesn’t use the term transgender, what it was like to be transitioning on national television, her procedure and the healing process and more.

Isis seems so happy and content right now. This is a great interview and I’m glad her surgery is complete and she can focus on the next step in her life.

Allison was better known as Creepy Chan for the photos of her that appeared on the 4chan forums. The photos that made Allison notorious on this forum were swiped from her LiveJournal and DeviantArt accounts from as far back as 2005.

If you already know the Creepy Chan story, this video doesn’t reveal any new information. If you don’t, it shows how bizarre the internet can be sometimes!

It’s unknown whether Allison intends to pursue modeling anymore. She’s no longer on the boards at Nous Model Management. I liked Allison a lot and think her look is great. While I want to see her to continue to pursue modeling, I hope she finds happiness in whatever she decides to do!

Here’s the commercial. Eugena is featured pretty prominently!

There are a few of these Dwele-as-a-lounge-singer-who-loves-McCafe commercial. I find them funny, but what is with these recent commercial-as-music-video spots? Saleisha Stowers was recently in one too!

There isn’t a solid plot structure to the video, but it isn’t bad and it’s good to see Joanie getting work!

EW writes:

The supermodel’s modeling competition may not score the ratings of some other reality juggernauts, but when it comes to entertainment value, the show never disappoints (see: every cycle’s makeover episode). And unlike some other reality shows, ANTM actually does produce some success stories (e.g. Eva Pigford, Danielle Evans, Adrianne Curry…kinda). C’mon Emmy, you know that ANTM deserves to still be in the running to become Best. Reality. Competition. Show.

I must say, as far downhill as ANTM has gone in the past few years, I have to agree. It truly paved the way for the new kind of fashion/design female-oriented reality shows and Tyra led the way in a new wave of multimedia moguls. The early cycles of America’s Next Top Model are reality television classics. It’s too bad the Academy took notice of reality television a bit too late.

Topping the list of Emmy snubs were Courteney Cox on Friends (#10), Bob Newhart on The Bob Newhart Show (#9), Heather Locklear on Melrose Place (#8), Norman Fell on Three’s Company, Michael Landon (#7), The Honesymooners (#6), Lauren Graham on Gilmore girls (#4), Buffy the Vampire Slayer (#3), Andy Griffith on The Andy Griffith Show (#2) and Rosanne (#1).

You can see the complete list here. What Emmy snub do you think was the biggest snub of all?
