America's Next Top Model Season 1 quotes

Jay Manuel

A.J. looked breathtaking!

[after falling on the water catwalk] I'm freaking bleeding!

[in confessional] Melrose always rubs girls the wrong way. She's a little Miss. Know-it-all!

[in confessional] Melrose, I didn't even know! She gets to that point in me where I'm just like... [A.J. moves her fingers and sticks her tongue out behind Melrose] ..."Ugh! Shut Up!"

[nods at Melrose, then in confessional] Melrose, she just likes to talk. Talk. Talk. Talk. Talk. Talk and I don't anybody really likes to hear her voice. I think a lot of us would just like to have Melrose gone.

[to Tyra after getting eliminated] I just want to say thank you for this wonderful opportunity. I'm going to take this as one of those things to make me stronger.

Tyra

[to Megg] That's what I want to hear. Now you give me a hug. [hugs Megg]

Tyra

[voiceover] Previously on America's Next Top Model, Monique was gone but Melrose still wasn't making any friends.

CariDee

[in a "red carpet interview" challenge with Janice Dickenson] Why, why, why—Why are you so over-pungent?

Janice

Over-pungent!?

[same challenge] I don't know what to say?

Janice

Fine, gimme the mic! [grabs microphone out of her hand] Bye! Yeah, I got the mic...

[same challenge] What makes you so bitchy?

Janice

[walks away without saying anything]

Janice

[to A.J., after red-carpet challenge] Yo, why are you still wearing that ugly pink thing on your head?

[later, to camera] I don't care what she said, I love my hat

[during photoshoot as Marc Anthony] God, what am I doing?

I might be—gay.

[to Tyra] Thank you. [to CariDee, Brooke, Eugena, Jaeda, Amanda, Michelle, Anchal and Melrose] It's cool, guys. [to Melrose after hugging CariDee] Melrose you have it. You should be nice. Okay?

[to A.J.] Thank you! [hugs A.J.]

[in confessional after getting eliminated fifth] I think Tyra eliminated me for the right reasons. If I could give up my spot for another girl who is more deserving then I'm really glad I gave it up. I think I sabotaged myself subconsciously. You know, what could have been, could have been. Whatever. I'm not going to think about it because it's done.

[to Amanda, Michelle and Brooke about the Seventeen Magazine photoshoot prize win] Brooke, Michelle and Amanda. We're going to be in Seventeen!

[in confessional about Melrose] Melrose wins the challenge again. She's like "Oh! Oh my gosh! Oh my gosh! Oh my gosh!" I think it's stupid!
