Remember how we left Brenda last week, in the bottom two and looking like a bored accountant? Tyra decided that her look wasn't edgy enough, so she brought in the hairdresser to take another crack at it. The hairdresser busted out the #2 clippers and shaved down the sides of her head. Pretty much thought that Brenda’s eyes were going to pop right out of her head…and in the end, she still looked like Molly Ringwald but with short, spikey hair. So much for the big makeover…
Time for the first challenge: the girls have to shoot a Cover Girl commercial in Times Square without speaking. Body language ladies! They’re all pretty bad, but Tatianna uses some head flips and dances around a bit and wins the challenge (for those that picked her in the pool, point!)
Back at the house, it’s about time for a cat fight. Anslee and Alasia get into it over a frozen peas & corn mix (perfectly logical) and Alasia tells Anslee that she’s a bad mom (even more logical). Anslee loses it, and before you can say “Jerry Springer” they’re both yelling and head bobbing and finger wagging. Gotta say, these lame fights seem contrived and are getting really old. Plus my dream of my chicks doing well is losing momentum as I remember that Anslee has a kid. So does Jessica, the child bride. Tyra doesn’t let moms be models, we all know this from ANTM’s past. What was I thinking?
PHOTOSHOOT
The highlight of the episode has got to be Mr. Jay appearing as a vampire and morphing into a dingy looking warehouse, scaring the girls “half to death”. It was THAT real. He actually looked pretty awesome with his white/blue eyes and fangs – and he even shot a red lazer beam out of his eyes. OMG. The premise of the photoshoot, of course, was that the girls were victims of a hot boy vampire (second dream crushed when I realize its not Edward, just some random male model with fangs) and they had to be immersed in a bathtub full of blood. And they will be blinded by white contacts. They get all done up like hot temptress vamps, and they all look amazing. Most of them really pull through in the shoot, with the exception of Brenda who cries about having to wear the contacts and Simone who looks like she couldn't model her way out of a paper bag. Can you model your way out of a paper bag? I don't know if its even possible. But I’m telling you, if it is, Simone couldn't do it.
JUDGING (Yes Tyra is wearing a one piece spandex pantsuit again. This time in lavender.)
The first name that Tyra calls…is…
Alasia. This surprises me because Tatiana’s picture was by far the best, and though Alasia’s was good, it wasn’t AS good. Then she calls Raina, who I will admit did have a great pic – her body language was amazing – but still not as good as Tatiana’s. Thankfully, Tatiana is called third. It goes on and on until we get to the bottom two: Anslee and Simone. Great. My pick. Anslee’s photo was dead, and not in a good way. It was flat, and boring. Plus she kept giving excuses for why she was doing badly (she couldn’t hear the instructions in Times Square and the photogs in the shoot told her to do the wrong thing). Simone’s photo was just plain bad, and they didn’t feel she was putting in enough effort. Plus she’s too smart to be a model. And the name Tyra calls…is…
Anslee. She saves the baby mama and sends the smart one home.
Phew, skin of my teeth on that one. I’ve got to say that all in all, that was an awesome photoshoot, I really loved it. Thanks for reading!
