Make Me A Supermodel
Jonathan

13th Photo Shoot - Timothy Greenfield Sanders

Wow – what an opportunity! Having polaroids (one one of the earliest cameras) taken by Mr. Greenfield Sanders.

This shoot was so revealing. No posing, no character, just your naked face being captured.

It was a fun, interesting, and almost uncomfortable shot as we were shot warts and all, no retouching, just how we look everyday.

I loved the pictures especially the group one … this really was a once-in-a-lifetime shoot.

Timothy was such a nice guy and was kind enough to give us each a souvenir. I got his book of famous portraits. Thanks for the opportunity, Bravo!

Next day we had a shoot (test) with Cosmo mag, which didn’t go well for me. I was in my head and couldn’t get out. Sounds so unprofessional. I had just seen my wife and son the night before, first time in two months. No excuse to be off my game and I feel quite embarrassed about my performance today.

13th Runway – Crazy and Refined

Two walks – one in a crazy fun suit, one in a sleek Ben Sherman number.

So final final final. This one was a big one.

I walked well, with a slight step as the first suit was a bit out there, so I had to wear it like I owned it.

Second suit I loved. It felt tailored! I had a confident walk and was feeling good … until …

Oh well…it’s all over Tyson pretty much threw my book at me and got rid of me.

Got this far so don’t feel too bad, but am I disappointed? Absolutely. Let's see if getting this far will help my career. Hope to see you all around.

You guys are ALL CRAZY Branden was the best. Branden had THE MOST improvement out of everyone, whereas Jonathan did not improve at all.

Man, I cannot believe you didn't win. I thought it was a no brainer. Branden was way too immature and unprofessional, and Sandhurst was just too pretty - too much feminine energy - to be able to be a supermodel. You had the looks, professionalism, attitude, and class. Sorry for you mate, but something tells me they're already knocking on your door with offers and that you'll be a huge success without this win. Looking forward to seeing you rise.

I couldn't agree more that you were the standout from day one. Who else was in the bottom every week and won the whole damn thing??? I never thought much of Brandon and still dont. I truly feel it should've been down between you and Sandhurst. I wish you and your family all the best.

You are so awesome and extremely handsome. I really thought that you should win this. I hate contests, because you just never know what a judge will decide, usually it is not what the majority of the people would decide. I hope that you make it really far and I hope that you stay true to your wife and son. It won't be easy,,,but you seem like a good guy!

Jonathan,

I am so pleased to see you got picked up by Nous. I cannot help but agree that you were definitely the Supermodel they should have picked. You are amazingly versatile and seem to be very easy to work with and around. You are consistent and humble (which is odd in such a beautiful man) as well as talented. I also think you would make a great actor - the camera does love you! I look to your family to keep you grounded and sane in the world of catwalking and acting. They are treasures worth every fight you have fought and I am so proud of you that I can only hope my little boys grow up with even a smidgen of your character. I have not seen the finale because I Tivo'd it and skipped to the end. I just cannot watch the travesty of justice that must have occurred to get Branden the money spot.
But, you seem to have landed on your feet (I never doubted you'd get picked up! You are too good to fail, sweetie.) and I wish you and your family all the best!

06/12/2009 - 3:19pm
Viewer

Jonathan, I do hope you read some of these supportive comments from viewers. I watched most of this season and you were my favorite early on because you were thoughtful & intelligent in your choices, your walk was always very strong, and you photograph really well in many contexts, you've kept yourself in great shape (though please try & quit smoking :), AND because you were always humorous and classy in your comments with no juvenile bickering like some of the girls. I hope you give modeling a real go, because the judges were quite impressed with you consistently, and said MANY times that you could land a job right now (and you did!). I wish Brandon well, but truly he lacks the poise and confidence to qualify him as a "supermodel" carrying a show today, and you have it in spades! I'm glad you won some fan favorite $, you really were a clear choice for winner for me and many viewers (you, Sandhurst, then Brandon). I dislike Bravo's penchant for pulling a crazy switcheroo at the last minute on the obvious top contestant, they have done it before and left viewers feeling robbed and ticked off. Ok, Brandon aced the final, but you were the "golden boy" throughout the competition. I know a ton of modeling agencies including NY Model Management would be thrilled to have you and I hope you pursue it! I wish all the best to you and your family!

There were many times throughout the season that I really thought the judges were either on drugs or should be...when Salome was eliminated before Brandon I stopped watching, but I still thought it was painfully obvious that you would win...I really hope for the next season they get some judges who know what they are doing - I also thought they offered very little guidance or helpful criticism and often contradicted themselves! Anyway, I am sure you have a long and successful career ahead of you! Good Luck!

Jonathan, you truly were robbed in the finale. Sandhurst was a strong second in my opion, but never Branden. The judges displayed their "artistic volatility" in choosing him as the winner. I was so disgusted with the judges wayward direction- remember when Branden said he thought he was about to the be elimintated and Pirou said,"So did we?" Jonathan, you were never close to being eliminated. Branden's last picture somehow turned the tide, at the 11th hour, while you were always consistent and a favorite of the judges. Remember how one judge said if that picture was not in Branden's portfolio, he would not even consider him to win the competition? I was so disgusted with the judges that I will not watch that show again. Hopefully Bravo's advertisers are listening.

I have to agree with several other comments, You were most certainly robb'ed of the win. I feel that one of the reasons you didnt win was because of your age, Branden is the youngest by far. The point though was to find out who they could make in to a super model now, not who can become a super model in the distant future. You by far had what it takes, the photographers loved you, you have a very marketable look, both high fashion and commercial.

Even though you didnt win, im sure you got great contacts and you will go far.

WOW, those judges are NUTS!!! You should have won. wtf. brandon is an idiot. His runway totally blows!! He is not ready to be a supermodel. You killed it every single challenge and every single runway. I am so disappointed in the judges, if it would have been up to the people you would have been crowned a supermodel. I don't think I will be watching this show unless they get better judges.

LOVE YOU JONATHaN!!!!!!!

If this contest was about finding a "model to be" then salome, brandon or even colin could have won, BUT this show was about finding a Super Model, and clearly Jonathan was the most deserving and best prepared to become a SUPER MODEL right now.

He can walk the runway, takes great pictures, works well with the photographers. He does it all right now, that's why he should have received the price and the contract.

Good luck Jonathan and congratulations, to all of us you were the winner.

Hey Johnathan:

I thought for certain you would win. However, you had a "so-so" day on the absolutely WRONG day!
However, I agree with the one judge who predicted that you'd make a lot of money in the business!
Finally, I wanted to say that your baby boy has got to be one of the cutest babies I have seen in a while. Just adorable. You impressed me as a standup guy on the show and I think your personal qualities will allow you to do whatever you decide in the business. Cheers!

Think of it this way... you don't have the contract or the cash. But, mostl likely you will have the career. I believe you will go further than Branden.. and Sandhurst, you have the consistency... more than both of them put together.

Good Luck and God's Speed.

06/07/2009 - 9:25pm
I think you should have won

I guess the name says it all you should have won. You deserved to win. You needed to win. Branden was crap on the catwalk and you were killer. What the judges said about you being forgettable was one of the stupidest things they've said all season. You were so unforgettable at one point you were almost too crazy. But you balanced it out in the end. I wish I could put a loser stamp on all the judges faces. That would be hysterical. Anyway, I really hope you can still have a really successful career as a model (most people think you're the real supermodel) and that your family will have a better time with the rent. I've worked in the fashion industry and believe me, after this show, fashion people will be just jumping on you. Best of luck!!!!!!

Fan of Jonathon

I was just sick that Jonathon wasn't named as the top model. Something was definitely wrong. While the judges were debating they all admitted that you were the best and could do it all very well. While the other two got several negative comments, they just made glowing remarks about you so why they didn't choose you just blew me away. It left me so disappointed with the whole darn season. Sorry but the young man who was named top model seems to be a nice young man but in the looks department I would look at him twice. I know everyone has their own opinion but I didn't think he was good looking at all and most of his photos really looked the same and there was nothing but deadness in his eyes. Jonathon you really got ripped off big time but I hope you have a highly successful career because you definitely were my choice.

I think you won ,like Salome and Sandrust but definitly they are looking somebody like Brandon because they keep him all this time and gave him the opportunity to be better until the finnaly to show everybody that he can make it , I think I could do it too ,I just think it is not fear that like Solome said ...why keep her wining the photosoot, but they provably need a boy , so what happened with you and Sandhurst ,you won a lot , and Sandrurt too ,is suppost one of you won .. but keep it going ,I sure someone want you gays ans we going to se you in the magazines ,and we are here waiting for .

Hey Jonathan,

I don't know if you have heard the judges comments before the result but they said if they have to choose a supermodel based on the book then hands down its you. Its just one pic which got Branden the win which is totally unfair.Anyways your portfolio is the strongest and you will be a huge success in near future.

Jonathan, there is absolutely no doubt in my head that you are a supermodel. Personally, I believe Branden has not developed emotionally or physically enough to carry the title, but what can you do? The judges picked him. Go figure. I can't. On the other hand you have the look, the manner, and the personal style that just screams WINNER!!! Go out there and show em!

06/06/2009 - 10:25am

Jonathan: Never doubt for a moment that you ARE a supermodel. Your fans know it as you can see by the vote count. Your natural talent has already gotten you a contract and getting to know people in the business will only help you advance. Now that you're out of the competition, you will relax and more of your natural talent will come out. All of us who were rooting for you from day one will be watching for you. Good luck!

Hey Jonathan,

I strongly felt that you deserved it.

So all the best in your future endeavors and can't wait to see you on a real runway.

I was shocked and amazed that you or sandhurst did not win. If I had known it was going to end this way, I would never have wasted my time watching the show. What were the judges thinking. They said you had the look and Branden came so close to going home. I think the judges should have taken into consideration the viewers vote. Branden came in dead last (no surprise). You and Sandhurst by far have the bodies to be a super model. I wish you and your family the best and I am sure you will have a contract in time at all. Just remember you had a lot of people rooting for you and keep your head up and good things will come your way.

i have been watching this show all the time and i am a big fan of jonathan.i have no idea it's true or not,i guess the judges think jonathan is a little too old to start to be a model.so they will choose someone who is younger. that's what i think. of course, i do really like jonathan, and you have great potential to be a supermodel. best good luck for you.

06/06/2009 - 3:39am

Let me see if I've got this right. The model whom the judges said they looked at and saw "money," the model who week after week won the catwalk challenge, including on the finale, the model whose pics were repeatedly singled out as having nailed "it," loses? The model who was called "immature," the model whom the judges said had only one look and a walk that didn't vary, who was even faulted repeatedly by the judges for his walk in their comments, especially the ever-present smirk which was his default expression when on the catwalk, wins? I'm assuming there must be some sort of internal logic to the bizarre choice of the judges. Someone from Bravo should tell angry viewers what it is.

06/06/2009 - 1:35am
t.emory

My last food for thought, the judges went on the record many of time say that jonathan and sandhurst had unforgettable looks and often over thought modeling (neither of which make them bad models...but in comparison with someone whom developed a natural understanding for the industry and original appearance it's hard to compete with)
Perhaps this can provide further explanation to those who still believe the show is independently built on the premises of good walks and pictures only.

It's about Promise...

Again, good luck to the fabulous trio

06/06/2009 - 1:29am
t.emory

Much to do about nothing:

Jonathan has a equally a a great look and personality, but so do many other supermodels and thus is why I think the judges have a better understanding of what it takes to be a supermodel than do many of us viewers. We may believe that Jonathan was the most consistent, but Branden showed the most growth over 2months which is extremely important when put in perspective with how old he is. Therefore I wish the best of luck to Jonathan and I truly believe he will do well in whatever is up and coming ventures are, but in the same notion I don't believe neither he or Sandhurst represent the best to win the show.

-Thats my peace

Jonathan, If Marlon didn't take both you and Sandhurst aside after the last episode and try to sign both of you too, he's crazy. I'm sure that you must have gotten a great contract by now, and I certainly hope you have not had to go back to construction, where your wonderful looks and personality can be appreciated by far too few. Good on you that you are so tight with your family; I hope that that will continue through fortune or adversity. Your baby chose a good daddy. Good luck with everything!

Hi Jonathan! I am sorry you didn't win. I wish you did because I think you were the best out of the three. I watched every episode and it seems that the judges wanted Brandon to win because he could have been kicked off several times and each time they allowed him to stay. I am sure with all the fan support, a better model agency will sign you. To be a supermodel, you have to to have fans and you got tons! Best of luck to you and your beautiful family! Your son is so sweet!

Jonathan,
You were robbed!!!
I have total confidence that you will go far in the modeling industry...unfortunately Brandon will self destruct within the next six months...so it is sort of a waste that he won.
See you on the runway (and in print, of course)

If you don't have a contract this week, something is wrong in the Modeling World. My daughter and I watched the entire series and were impressed with you from day one. I think the Timothy G Sander's was the photographer who was able to bring out the best in all three final contenders without saying "show this, show that", he had a goal, you all understoon it and walla there is was. The three of you together should be on the cover of Rolling Stone. I didn't understand what the Cosmopolitan photographer wanted from you and the clan running amoke in the shooting. I think the judges wanted 3 Top Super Models and that would have been a "Just" decision. They copped out and choose safely. There have never been 3 finalist so strong and the job to judge must have been difficult. Evidently,for them it was really between you and Sandhurst and they couldn't hurt either one of you.
Your future is Unlimited. You certainly have touched our hearts. We will never forget you and your professionalism and your family.

Jonathan!

Oh, sweet, sweet Jonathan! You are amazing! I really thought you should win, and I still do. Your opponents were strong, but you were the strongest! I never saw a man like you, you're so unique, so perfect, sweet, gentle, intelligent, you are like a man of every girl's dream. But the best of you is that you love your family so much, and YOU ARE THE WINNER, cause you have your beautiful wife and charming baby boy with you!
And what about money and fame? YOU'LL HAVE IT ALL, there's no doubt!

With big love from Russia!

You seemed very reheresed in the interviews you did on the show. It's almost like you tried too hard. Oh well. I think the better man won.

I followed you in the show, and I am not sure if you are going to read my comment or not. But I wanted to teall you that you were super good, with a book like yours I think any modeling agency would love to work with you. I am dissapointed of you not winning because I thought that the money would have really helped your family and your walk was so great! You open your heart to the viewers and we thank you for it.Best luck and keep trying, this was an opportunity that will open the door for you to become a great model and be a successfull provider for your beautiful family.My best wishes to you.Sincerely.

Jonathan,
You reminded me of David Beckham right in the first episode (and I loved your long hair style--please grow it back). As many fans have noted before, you're such a rare specimen of mankind, and your love for your wife and your son melts people's heart.

I'm so sorry you didn't win. I missed the episode yesterday and could not wait to check the news (of your winning) today. Had to take a double-take at the news of Branden's winning instead. Life is unfair.

At least you got the ten grands to move to NYC and start your super-modeling career. Best of luck!

Jonathan: We have watching you from the very beginning and just knew you would win. Your consistency has been amazing and I know we will see you on a cover SOON. You, my dear friend, were robbed. I sure didn't see it coming! I can only hope than Branden's win was not because he was so young and free to travel about the country. You made the choice to model to HELP your family and I say "hat's off to you" for putting them first. The judges put youth and "possible" improvement ahead of great modeling and the maturity to know what you want. Keep at it! You are a SuperModel!!!!!!! Marta & Marisa

Mr. Jonathan, you've got a beautiful wife and adorable little boy, you're already the big winner. And you should have won "Supermodel", but evidently they weren't looking for polished professionalism. Maybe the gay portion of the panel saw more in a young eighteen year old that they could do with and maybe "the supermodel" or so they call her, on the judging panel saw too much of a man in you. Jenny whatever her name is was famous for looking like a man in her photos. And the other "famous" designer (I'm gay and I've never heard of her) couldn't speak enough English clear enough that she shouldn't have been on TV anyway. And shame on you Tyson for being a part of this although your cohost is much more beautiful than Niki was last year. Jonathan, don't sit on your duff. Get out there cause I can't wait to see you strut your stuff in all the top magazines.

Jonathan, if you are an American Idol Follower remember the Name Clay Aiken? He came in second on the show, but walked away with all of the fans, and all of the Fame.

The Ultimate judge of who won this competition isn't Tyson, or Nicole...... Its the People who want you.

Good luck!

Jonathan, you were a class act from start to finish. Your exit video is superb, and delivered as the complete gentlemen you are. 007 for sure!!!
I would never have watched this season if I hadn't caught sight of you the first nite. You, Jonathan, are "the Super Model".
This tiresome American choice for the underdog is getting on my nerves. TV will choose mediocrity over excellence every time.
If the fasion industry has any brains, and I know it does, you will have a great career and sell lots of product--I look at you and I see money, money, money.
Best wishes to you and your sweet family.

Sorry buddy. You were robbed. Be blessed!

Jonathan,
I'm still in shock as I'd picked you as the winner on day one. You're talented on the catwalk and on photo shoots, charming, professional, and intelligent. You were clearly the one to beat. But then "reality" TV is far from real, as I'm sure you're quite aware. You're son is about the same age as my daughter and I understand the pressure you put on yourself to excel for your family.It is an admirable trait and you're a great role model (no pun intended) for other fathers. You're wife and son are lovely and I know they must be happy to have you back. Best of luck to you and your beautiful family.

Jonathan, you were robbed!!! So dissapointed you didn't win. Branden didn't deserve it as much as you do. Good luck in your modeling career (although you don't need it since you already are a "Super Model") I have no doubt I will be seeing you in the future. Wish you the best.

Jonathan,
The final elimination was a complete and utter INJUSTICE. YOU WERE THE BEST on every level. You have the best body, the best personality, the best catwalk, the best professionalism..the best everything. Never has there been a reality show where the absolutely most talented competitor was so robbed. These judges are a major disappointment to the show's adoring fans.

You are right-it's not a matter of if, it's a matter of when.
