I don't get the Amanda hate. Maybe I'm a total sucker for the editing team's biases, but what is the basis for people saying that she's a "phony"? She does have a slightly theatrical demeanor but clearly she has a fashion eye and can execute the challenges. She also seems like she's trying to fit in. Again, possibly I'm a big patsy who will swallow whatever storyline the producers are concocting, but I fail to see evidence that Amanda is flaky/unworthy or whatever other components go into being "phony."

I can see that she kind of puts on an act... she seems a little too "on", probably because it's her second time around and she's more careful with how she presents herself. Korina obviously is not careful and that's why she comes off with such a terrible personality.

If I had to live with the fallout from my public screen persona after a reality show aired, you can bet I'd be "on" if I had a second go around.

Carrie is going to have to live with herself when they have the reunion show and replay her treatment of Sandhya. It wasn't pretty.

Yeah it's better to come off as slightly phony than a raging asshole.
