Honestly, I have disliked Renee from the first episode. She came in acting as if she knew everything, she was the only one who could win, and if something went wrong she blamed everyone else. She had the audacity to go to Brittany and tell her that she had never been anything but nice, when she was badmouthing her to Diana just 2 seconds ago. But then, last night, it was like seeing a whole other side to her. How much she wants it for her family, and how she wanted to turn over a new leaf. And it did seem like she was, when she didn't b*tch as much when she didn't win the challenge (ok, she did cry, but she didn't lash out at the other contestants...she seemed to take fault for it herself). But then there was the whole thing with the phone. It does seem like she's very two-faced. And she did take an amazing picture last night. Now I just don't know what to think of her.

I think Renee is definitely a b****, but I loved that she KNOWS she is a b**** and tries to actually be nicer to people. I don't think any b****es in the past have done that. I have a lot more respect for her now. Not to mention she is GORGEOUS, probably the prettiest girl out of the bunch! And her pictures are amazing as well.

I agree with milkymoon and I say she is also a b****. However, I personally can't stand a fake b****. Don't act like your nice if your not. She has been nothing but rude things to say to the other girls. She cries b/c nobody likes her, but I wouldn't either if she was just talking to me crazy. For her beauty can only take you so far and in opinion Jaslene is prettier than her.

I don't like her. I think she is there for the money. She is mean hearted and tries to be manipulative and when it doesn't work she freaks out. She was trying to take down anyone who did well. SHe is negative person and I really hope that Tyra and the other judges will be able to see that.

I understand that Renee feels she is better than the other models because a healthy sense of self confidence is important to succeed in such a cut-throat profession. However, I think tact, friendliness, diplomacy and showing respect for your colleagues is also crucial to that business. If she is unable to play politics and be respectful even though she may not always agree with what is being done or said, she will create more enemies and animosity than is necessary. It's better to create a civil and professional work environment where one is composed, kind and self-protective. She may feel she knows it all but if she did, she would not be in competition for top model. She would BE top model. She still has a lot of maturing to do in terms of how to treat other people, including take rejection and criticism well while dusting onself off and forging forward. She has the foundation for potential success but she has a lot of growing up to do and needs to learn compassion for the experiences and plights of others. Just my 2 cents :) Zuri http://askzuri.blogspot.com

I don't understand why EVERY season there is ALWAYS at LEAST 1 person who is a complete b*tch and is "there for competition not to make friends". It's like...yeah...it's a competition but why not make it easier and more fun to be nice to eachother and get along. Why not take the chance of finding a great friend while you're there? That doesn't mean you have to treat it like a competition any less! Renee is very two faced. She's always changing up her story because she can't say how she really feels to their face. IE. How she was telling Nicole Ritchey how Jael was the B*tch of the house and then to Jael's face she was like "No I said you were the crazy one". Like she said the other night, a lot may be that she's been hurt a lot and is pushing everyone away before they get too close and turn thier back on her.

I have also disliked Renee from the very first episode. Not only does she think she's better than everyone else, she's incredibly crude and doesn't know how to treat people with respect. It is ok to think highly of yourself, because self-confidence is VERY important in modeling, but there is a way to do that without being a b**ch. No one will want to work with her if she keeps her attitude up. She could burn her bridges with people who could help her move up in the industry. She really isn't very nice to any of the girls in the house, and I'm so glad that some of the other girls have decided not to take any of her crap. I haven't seen the newest episode yet, but I don't think she's going to change her ways. She's extremely two-faced.
