Comments

Alamela, you are truly a class act, elegant, beautiful and intelligent. I was impressed with you from the first episode, but the way you handled the ridiculous bullying with such dignity really elevated you. You can hold your head high, whereas Demelza etc. have a permanent record on video of their shameful behaviour. When they grow up it will haunt them.

All the best!

You go girl!

I know Alamela & she plays australian public- and continues to be the helpless damsel in distress,when in fact what Demelza did is nothing compared to what she's done. The only thing she did well on that show, was milk the australian viewers for all their worth.

of course she has the model quality - otherwise why would she be on the show and have gotten thru so well? alamela got eliminated because she wasn't very strong at the beaver ad but demelza did so much shitter than her n alamela definitely deserved to go so much further!
she may seem a lil outta place but that's because she is far too elegant and intelligent and poised for it. but she definitely has the photogenic quality and the beauty. she will go so far! love you alamela! xx

alamela... you're my one and only fave!
your elegance and attitude and features (pretty much everything about you!) really distinguishes you from all the others.
i was especially amazed by your gracious and forgiving attitude at elimination (which you really did NOT deserve!)to alyce.
and best of all, you're humble (very important!) and willing to learn despite being the best and most stunning model! truly a beauty inside and out =)
i could continue with my word vomit about how awesome you are, but to sum it up: you're too good for the other models!

ALAMELA ROCKS

Hey Alamela,

I found you to be the most intriguing intellectual among all model contestants! I think you have such potential in the modelling world and you will only go up from here! Australia's next top model has lost their best contestant! I really admired the way you dealt with the nasty bullies in the competition. It sounds silly but you are a fine example of a victim of bullying in that you took the attitude to stay positive, calm and unaffected. However, as the nastiness increased and your tolerance, like anybody would have, began to lessen and we saw your angst toward the situation. I can't understand why none of the other girls stood up for you and tried to stop the constant bickering? I was waiting for one of the girls, if not more girls, to console you as you walked away from the group. How could these girls be so cruel and inhumane? It was really the most appalling thing to watch these weak minded and nasty girls gang up on you and try to cause some sort of conflict. These girls will be remembered as horrible immature bitches and you will be remembered as a poised, serene and mentally strong model. Good luck and I hope you never have to deal with such unnecessary torment again.

i'm soo glad shes out of the competition
her looks werent too great,,, her clothes were terrible and she had the absolute worst personality i have ever seen!!
she was robotic and boring
i think demelza and friends took it a little too far, but alamela was being a bitch herself
shes weird and shes a loser
i would never be friends with someone like her
i hate her
everyone made such a big deal out of demelzas so called bullying.
but what about jordan and her group and the way they treated paloma last series

Alamela, you deserve to win this. Remember that only the most insecure ppl will have a go at those that are not afraid to be themselves. We cannot say how happy we are when the judges took note of your plight in the house and brought it up before judgment. ( they may not say names..but duhh....everyone knows who they are!! =) )

Remember your purpose in the house. We support you all the way....

Alamela, you are so much better than Bec, Alyce and Demelza..

Alyce and Demelza pretty much look the same so I don't understand why they would choose to have both of them in the competition.

Alamela! You're my favourite in the competition because, eventhough you're so young, you handle every situation very mature manner. Be strong, keep your cool, and hope you win Australia's next top model!

Ivy

I'm sorry, but I agree with Trevor, Alamela is disproportional and I don't think she should stay in the competition.

Hi Alamela.......you may not remember us but Jesse and you grew up together in Mullumbimby and Sth Golden Beach. We used to come to your house and go to the beach together. We wish you every success and we send our love and support to you. Jesse is living and working in Melbourne at the moment and sends you his love.
Keep your head up and just dont sweat the small stuff....that means people too....... keep up the good work....we are so proud of you, you have grown into a fantastic young woman.
Say hello to Peter for me, thanks
big hugs
Dianne & Jesse Grae

Alamela you have lots of support, dont let those bitches get to you. You are far more interesting as a model than that boring delmelza. You should see her in her VTs - can hardly string a sentence together let alone an interesting one.

Go alamela!

Just remember in many years time girls like Demelza will be nobodies and that in itself is revenge!

Girls like her may think they are something special but down the track their bitchiness towards other people catch up, as they are Karmas a bitch!
