ANTM: 9.2
I missed the first part of this evening’s episode and the all important photo shoot because I was stuck on a train and I hadn’t set my DVR. AAARRRGGGHHH - viewer error! However, I figured that all I missed was some recappin’ and bitchin’ (and Heather trying to explain about aspergers).
This week’s challenge for the girls is to start dressing like models and they got a basic tutorial from Miss J (they judges are obviously trying to break them of their ‘mall style habits’.
101 Modeling: Basics for your ‘drobe
- Simple dresses and skirts
- Flesh tone g-strings
- Fitted jeans with simple tees
- Keep your own style
Our brave girls are sent to Old Navy where they have 10 minutes to put together an outfit, and Benny Ninja is there to hinder them by trying to distract them with too many accessories. The store looked wrecked by the time they were finished as if an ANTM hurricane had blown threw!
Elimination time… I wish I had seen the photo shoot because it tried to un-glamorous smoking. Each of the girls was shot smoking in front of a mirror and then her reflection reflected a side affect. Tyra announces that this cycle will be a non-smoking cycle. I am impressed that they are taking a stand but wondering if nicotine withdrawal will make things more interesting in the house? Sad to say but the majority of the photos were good, and there wasn’t that much drama during the critiquing bar Victoria snapping back to Twiggy. Yes, mild mannered Twiggy happened to remark that Victoria looked shy and insecure, and she snapped back about not mistaking her being soft spoken for insecurity. Lucky Nigel stepped in to defuse the situation, but you could tell she had not done herself any favors. At the end it was Mila to go home.
I just long for the Tyra sanctioned make-overs and them removing Bianca’s purple bangs.
