No more Whitelle!
Last week...

Let's go! I was happy to see Melrose back! She was my favorite contestant from the 7th cycle along with the twins! Ooh, the twins, I miss them, they definitely are models.

So, I thought the girls were about to go to a celebrities filled party, but this was more of a LOSERS filled party (Laguna Beach contestants?! Are you kidding me???)... The only celebrity (apart from Benny Medina) was 50 Cent, which behaved like a total queen. I understand that Jael was being a bit of a stalker, but come on, throwing her in the pool was SO GAY Behave like a man! I'm gay but I'd never throw someone in the pool, is like pulling somebody's hair!

Our dear contestants had to choose a nickname and my favorite was one of those that got criticized by Mr. Medina: Whitelle. I don't know why, maybe because it reminds me of Vittel water, it's... appealing to me. Talking about Whitney... My gosh... She was wearing a Vuitton purse at the party!!! Not only I hate monograms, but Vuitton... I LOATHE it! LV bags are just a fashion disgrace. But hey, what could you expect from the ultimate provincial girl?!

I can't believe Dionne won the challenge after crying in front of Benny Medina and his peeps! As I wrote before I totally hate Public Display of Emotions, so...

At minute 24:00 of the episode I totally noticed what Ms. J pointed out towards the end; Jaslene is a clone of Janice!
The pictures I loved:

The Secret Evil one; pretty intriguing...

The Hood one and the Evil one.

The Dark Side one and the Motherly one.

The Peaceful one and the Comedian one; I gotta admit that she looks good in these shots...
The pictures I hated:
Well, all the other ones! I didn't like this photoshoot at all...

I obviously wasn't happy with this week's elimination, I mean, between Whitney and Sarah, Sarah goes home?! There's something wrong with that. You know what I'm happy about? Sarah can make it in the real world, but Whitney, I DON'T THINK SO! And it's not about her being a plus size model, but about her NOT being a model! Toccara was good at modeling and way more attractive than Whitney, which is just a "mall cutie". And to be a model you have to be whether extremely beautiful or weird looking; "mall cutie" is just wrong.
This week...
YAAAAAAAYYYYYY! At last Tyra let her go!!! ![]()

So, the episode starts with a new Renee, with a totally positive attitude. You know what I'm beginning to think? That she could make it to the top 3! CoverGirl has for sure the last word on the winner, and she has the CoverGirl look, which is "naturally beautiful". I can't say the same thing about Jaslene; she's my favorite, but let's face it, she can look really hard at times.

Finally Christian Marc (the hairstylist) took off the dead animal that was staying on Brit's hair! That weave was a disaster! And Whitney's comment is: "Britney has been complaining, and b*tching, and moaning... I mean, I've been wearing a weave since I was 12 years old, it is NOT that bad!". Well, if you've been trashy all of your life it's none of Brit's business. Gosh, I hate that girl.

Why does Nata pose while she reads Tyra Mail?
This girl's head is a mistery...

Tia Mowry & Efren Ramirez?! This show is so filled with Z-list celebrities. At least Efren did something!

Wow, I'm so in love with Jaslene's dragginess (is that even a word?!)! "The girl raised by a pack of drag queens"; they should do a movie!!!

So, Renee wins the acting challenge and chooses Dionne as "the friend" to share the prize with. Dionne's comment: "She's trying to make a change, so, ok, Imma go with the flow..."
Translation of Dionne's comment: "Gimme the damn prize!"

As soon as Ramirez gives them the prizes, she instantly comes up with her personal catchphrase: "WHAT THE HAAAYYL!"
But she soon realizes that it's just a lousy T-shirt!

So, when the real prizes come to them (their families), she has the same reaction, which evolves into "What the f*ck is wrong with my baby's hair?!".
I was excited about this week's photoshoot and photographer, but it turned out as a pretty trashy shoot. ![]()
At least we got to see some of the past contestants!

Jaslene just needs to be a little more in control of her face expressions; look at that picture, in the second half she looks so soft!

I honestly don't think that the girl who refused to pose nude was an important ANTM moment, but they obviously couldn't get Tiffany from cycle 4 since she hates ANTM!

Rebecca from cycle 4! Not the best model, but she's so gorgeous on video!

THE TWINS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Two of the best contestants they've ever had in my opinion, very high fashion!

Joanie! That girl is so beautiful!

I would have loved to see Jade... I love her!

Dionne's reaction to doing the photoshoot with Kim was simply hilarious: "I don't even kiss my own damn boyfriend!" ![]()
Turns out, she actually enjoyed it! So, she likes being naked (she said it during the candy photoshoot) and she likes to pretend that she's a lesbian. A future in the adult entertainment industry? JUST KIDDING! ![]()

Tyra, ENOUGH with the gipsy look, it's not flattering!

And enough with that hair growing from your eyes too, it's ridiculous!!!
The pictures I loved:

The only photo that doesn't look totally trashy! And did I mention that I love the twins? ![]()

She looks rough, but I like it. After all she had to portray a b*tch! ![]()

I don't like Renee in this picture, but Joanie, wow! We're not able to see her eyes and still she looks so sexy!

Hot!
The pictures I hated:

Come on! She looks like a cartoon!

I hate this picture, and I don't think that she's a model. Hopefully, she'll be the next to go, since I'm starting to get sick of her attitude as well...

So, no witchy laughters from Twiggy, but at least we've got Nigel Barker's rendition of a robot!

I just had to post this. Jaslene's made history with her editorial pose!
And... YEEEEEEEAAAAAH (that's Tyra imitating Megg from cycle 7!)! Whitney went home. Finally... I feel so relieved. ![]()
As far as the other reality shows are concerned...

...I'm rooting for Chelsea and Melissa R. ("The Search For The Next Doll")...

...and Chris Richardson ("American Idol").
BYE!!!
Free Your Mind!
Don't be so shallow! Why am I quoting lines from the popular En Vogue song? We'll get to it in a second.
First of all, thanks! Apparently you wished my digestive system luck since now everything's ok! ![]()
So, the episode starts with Natasha on the phone speaking with her husband and... HER SON!!! It was pretty shocking, she's never mentioned having one! Right after getting emotional speaking with him, she gets horny speaking with her hubby! ![]()

What bothers me (and what the title is referred to) is what the girls are talking about while she's on the phone; Nat getting married at the age of 18 with a 40 years old man and that being weird, creepy and gross. How dare they??? They don't even know her! I don't know her either, but she seems really in love with her husband and happy with her life; like she explained in one of the first episode, that man changed her life, and I don't think that a lot of same age couples can say the same thing! I don't know why I'm so sensitive about this (my parents are the same age, so it's not like I'm in the same situation!)... Anyway, this situation just proved what I've always thought about Whitney: she's just a stupid provincial girl.

About the "plus-size model being on the cover of Vogue" discussion, I don't think it's gonna happen. At least not on Vogue Italy. Cause it could happen on the American Vogue, I mean, Jennifer Hudson has been on the cover! I know, she's a celebrity, but still a plus-size one! I'm saying this because Vogue Italy and Vogue USA are like two different worlds; the Italian version is way more sophisticated than the American one, which looks like a cheap magazine.

Diana exploited her momentaneous rage to get rid of those rumors about her being a robot doing her best impersonation of Santa. Can we say "America's Next Top Santa"?

Anyway, apparently, there a plus-size trend going on; look at this dancer from Beyoncé's music video "Freakum Dress". Baby got back! ![]()

So, Sarah won the individual challenge, and I gotta say that her attitude was hilarious! Renee and Dionne picked all of her clothes and accessories and she acted like SHE did!
Sarah during the challenge: "Where's my outfit? Where's my outfit? Which one is mine? ... Which one is my outfit, guys? This one?"
Sarah talking with the judges: "When I saw the blue and I was like "I love the blue", because blue just complements my hair color..."
Ha ha ha! ![]()
And what a great prize she won! She gets to see the photos that she takes, see the mistakes that she's done and do the shoot again! Never in ANTM history there was a prize like this! Just extra frames! Noone was ever allowed to see the pictures with Jay!

I LOVED the photoshoot! Even this reminded me of Sex And The City a little cause there's an episode where Charlotte takes care of an exhibition for this guy who takes pictures of women dressed as men... Eh...
Anyway, some of the girls were convincing; Jaslene is a really cute guy! I think I have a crush on her... Wait. Does that make me heterosexual?! I'm confused! ![]()

Natasha definitely stepped up her game! She really got into the character and she was believable! It was amazing to see her like that, especially if we look back at episode three; it was embarassing to watch her posing for the "teacher's pet" picture!
The pictures I loved:

This girl is SENSATIONAL! 5 photoshoots, 5 beautiful photos! And what a cute guy she is!

Great picture! It was like she was possessed during the shoot! She reminds me of Kevin Federline... ![]()

Pretty sexy!

She's not totally convincing as a man, but I like the photo! She has that David Bowie-ness going on... The drag queen on the other hand looks really awful!

The half-lidded eyes are sexy!
The pictures I hated:

Hideous. Just hideous. I really hate this picture. WHY IS SHE STILL COMPETING?!?! Wait, I think I know the answer: Tyra wants her to stay. The other judges, not so much; but hey, Tyra's the boss! Seriously, she always finds new excuses to make her stay every week!

Hideous as well. At least she was eliminated.
And let me say one thing about Diana going home: IT WAS ABOUT TIME! Now it's Whitney's turn! I can't believe that she won as CoverGirl of the week!

You cannot not love the "The Guitar On Ur Waist" song by Tyra! It's gonna be a huge hit!
And why was someone having sex while they were showing Jaslene's picture?! Listen to this; I slowed it down so you can hear the moan better!

Next week Paris Hilton & Nicole Richie are gonna be guest stars. ?!?! Why? Don't you two have your own show? What do you want here?!
Here's a preview of what's gonna happen:
In what promises to be the most dramatic episode of America's Next Top Model to date, Twiggy gives the girls a history lesson on how she got her nickname and asks each model to give herself a nickname of her own, which each girl must then use at a celebrity filled party. While at the party, one girl gets a little too friendly with rapper 50 Cent and gets thrown in the pool. Another model jumps in to help her and both girls end up embarrassed when they are introduced to famous manager Benny Medina and his entourage. Later, Tyra gets involved when all the models unite against another model and crush her with harsh criticisms. Finally, the girls participate in a photo shoot where they must showcase four of their inner personalities.
I can't wait!
Bye bye!
America's Next Top... Robot?!
I know, I know, I'm super-late, but in my defense I have to say that I had fever on Tuesday and I suffer from diarrhea for 5 days (until now). Oops, maybe that was too much information.
Anyway, I LOVED last week's photoshoot, even though there's a uber-stupid controversy going on about it. Gina Salamone of the New York Daily News reports that women's right advocates are furious; here's what Sonia Ossorio (president of the New York City chapter of the National Organization for Women) stated:
"Violence against women is such a reality in our society that I certainly don't need the entertainment industry making light of it and making entertainment out of it..."
The level of idiocy of this is so high I don't even have anything to say about it.
Let's go on with the episode:

Have you noticed Sarah's face during the voguing challenge? She totally looks like Cynthia Nixon when she laughs! Oh gawd, I miss Sex And The City; it's like an ex-boyfriend, I see it everwhere! ![]()

Felicia's fierce faces are just histerical! And is even more histerical what she says when Whitney wants to look at Tyra's pictures: "Does she have a fierce one?" Meow!

Is Diana a plus-size robot?! Listen to this.
"I - DON'T - BUY - IT. I - DOON'T - BUY - IT." Creepy!

A 40,000$ bracelet? They should spend less money on the prizes and more on buying music for the show (cause if you didn't notice, they always use cheap and slighlty modified instrumental versions of original songs, so they don't have to buy the rights!)!
Anyway, for once, I was on Renee's side cause she wanted to use that horrible bracelet to help her family; unfortunately, Whitney won it and being the trashy and stupid girl that she is she kept it, EVEN THOUGH she owes her father 9,000$ for her education. I have no words. And her excuse to keep it is because "there's a lot of sentimental value to it." WHAAAAT?!?! Please!!!

I'm also on Renee's side regarding the fact that she can't stand the other girls anymore; I know how difficult it is to live with a person you don't know, go figure 9 of them! And they're models! ![]()

Jay: "I already told them you were really good."
Renee: "Oh! They already hate me enough as it is!"
Jay: "Oh, they do?!"
Renee: "Yeah!"
Jay: "Why? What happened?"
Renee: "I'm a b*tch."
Now I love her. ![]()

This was the only thing that bothered me about the photoshoot. The fact that they did it right after what happened to Jael. Was it just a chance? Cause I don't know if you remember Kahlen from cycle 4; she had to do a photoshoot in a cemetery right after a friend of her called her to tell her that a friend died. Mmhhh...

Twiggy's witchy laughter strikes back.

And Tyra, what were you thinking?! This is a fashion related show and you wear the same dress that you wore the week before (I know, the color's different, but the dress is not!)?! Horror (also cause that dress is hideous)!
The pictures that I loved:

Another really good photo from Brittany. Seriously, you could see this in Vogue; it actually reminds me of a Steven Klein's photoshoot from an old issue of L'uomo Vogue.

Could we expect a bad picture from her?

This photo's so CSI. ![]()
The pictures that I hated:

This is not a terrible picture, BUT
1st. she's not dead at all
2nd. I'm definitely not ready to see a plus-size model on a magazine

Awful. And it costed her her place in the competition.
Oh, at the panel Natasha thanked Tyra saying "spasibo" (pronounced spasiba), and that reminded me of Sex And The City too! ![]()
I'm done! Wish my digestive system luck! Bye!!!
Makeover madness!
Finally, the day of the makeovers has arrived... and I think that they were all pretty good!

Loves it! I'm liking this girl more and more by the minute!

I was worried when Tyra talked about the Kelis's cut, since it's horrendous, but they actually did her the Yoanna House's hairdo and in my opinion it works! She looks edgier...

Still ugly, but in the makeover photoshoot she looks... acceptable. And that's a miracle.

OMG, how ugly she looks in that picture?!?! EW!

Just an improvement of her fabulousness. ![]()

Now she looks more like a model and she totally rocked the makeover photoshoot! That's my favorite picture of her so far!

I like the new do! She looks like a spy from a James Bond movie! Sexy!

Meh.

And here goes the drama. Jay comes up to her and says:
"I just had a call of Tyra ... we're gonna take the whole thing out". After 8 hours of glueing and sewing stuff in her brain.
Probably, this is what they said on the phone:
Jay: "Nobody's cried."
Tyra: "Oh my God, nobody's cried?! That's terrible! We can't let it happen, you gotta torture one of them right away!"

And when she gets to the mansion, she receives a call from a friend who tells her that a friend of them died of an overdose. I feel a bit sorry for her, but I can't be totally sympathetic since I consider people who do drugs stupid, weak and useless.

And this week's target of Renee is... Ugly Brittany! Seriously, she is doing the same thing that she did last week with Jaslene! Who's gonna be next week's target?
WHAT IS HER PROBLEM?!?! I can't stand her anymore. She's just a boring b*tch; I used to love Jade from cycle 6, that's the kind of b*tch that I wanna see!
The pictures that I loved:

Another beautiful photo from my favorite girl! ![]()

Wow! Beautiful picture! Very David LaChapelle-sque.

Another LaChapelle-sque one. Love it.

Again, wow! That's one piercing look!
The pictures that I hated:

Crazy eyes!

Hate the face which in my opinion is blank. And the pose, OMG! Totally ungracious, she looks like a man!
I obviously was happy about this week's elimination, since I never really liked Cassandra. She's pretty ugly, and not that kind of ugly that works on a photo... Why did she even get among the finalists?
The end.
Buh bye!!!
P.S.: Twiggy's laughter is starting to creep me out. She sounds like the Wicked Witch of the West!
I walk like a martian... I'm doing great.
I was expecting makeovers!!! ![]()

Anyway, poor Samantha, I totally understand her. Even though I love to see Jael on the show, I know I would hate her if I had to live with her; I hate loud crazy people.

I didn't get how bad Natasha's comprehension of the english language was until this week's episode!
This was hilarious:
J. Alexander: "I don't know if you're marching or walking..."
Natasha: "Miss J., uh, he said that I walk like a martian... I'm doing great."
LOL! ![]()

You know, I'm so sick of Renee talking about Jaslene! She does it like every 5 seconds! Stop it already and focus on doing great during the photoshoots! Jaslene has all the right to be full of herself since, so far, she's the best!

The fashion show was pretty much a disaster, since they were all bumping into each other...

...but Sarah, WOW! I don't really like her pictures, but on the runway she's absolutely fabulous! She knows how to strut, she has a strong presence...

That breast thing was so stupid! She proved to be a professional not caring about flashing them! Come on, they're high school kids, whether they've already seen them or they'll see them soon! And let's be honest, there wasn't a lot to see... Sarah is not really gifted in the boob area! ![]()

Now, can anyone explain to me what are these two girl doing here?! They're absolutely not able to strut (Ugly Brittany was just WEIRD, Whitney is ridiculous)! I can't get over UB's ugliness and the fact that the judges consider her a model! And Whitney... I certainly don't see a model in her, she's just the regular girl that you see walking down the street. And she was able to cheapen a dress that was already cheap.

Jaslene wasn't good during the fashion show and the transformation of her face while Roy Campbell was telling her was hilarious!

And you don't wanna mess with her after something like that; the "I-want-you-dead" look that she gave to Felicia was scary!

"I'm not very happy that Jael and Sarah are sitting in the photoshoot with me, I wish that they would have asked me first..."
WHAAAAAAT?!
Apparently we've got a Linda Evangelista in the making!
The pictures that I loved:

Huge WOOOOOOOOW! This is definitely one of my favorite pictures in ANTM history, I love it SOOOOO much! It's so strange, without make-up she's average looking, but once they put it on she becomes almost another person!

What a sexy nerd!
The pictures that I hated:

"...timeless face..."?! "...superb picture..."?!?! "...you look like a model..."?!?!?! YOU GOTTA BE KIDDING ME.

I hate the face and the distorted hand... She's beautiful, but is she able to take a good picture?
I was disappointed with the elimination, I was loving Samantha's features and I hate the fact that UB, Whitney and Cassandra are still there...
And last but not least, here's the mp3 of the temporary insanity that pervaded Tyra while she was talking about Felicia's picture! LOL!
BYE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
