America’s Next Top Model: Who Won $$$, Who Cut Her Thumb, and Who Got Cut?

Cycle ten of America’s Next Top Model brought us an episode last night that has me loving Anya and loathing Whitney. Curious as to why?

So, we started out with fourteen girls, and now we have seven. I’ve never been so great at math, but I think that’s half down! So, it was time for the model’s to reflect. How did they feel?

Whitney voiced what I think a lot of fans are still thinking - they’re surprised Claire was eliminated. Lauren, our resident model underdog, said that she felt she really could be a model now. (This claim seems dubious when you watch her in action, though. She needs so much work in social situations, with her walk, etc…) Stacy-Ann said the competition now was FIERCE. That’s the lingo for any Top Model wannabe who has been schooled by Tyra Banks. Tyra has said that word more times on this show than anyone should say it in their entire life. Get.A.Thesaurus.

There was a whole drama with Fatima not having travel documents to leave the USA. She explained this to her fellow contestants. I don’t know what it is - but Fatima has mellowed and I like her now. Weird? Weird. Anya was supportive and nice, and Whitney looked pleased as a peach. I don’t know where that expression comes from, or how a peach can be pleased - but, whatever. She was damn happy.

Whitney has been giving more and more attitude and it’s not cool. I will go so far as to call it hellishly annoying. She has something negative to say about everyone, and whines about her plight as a plus-sized model. I’m not saying it’s easy for her or a girl in the modeling industry who isn’t a size two, but this record on repeat needs to get some sort of new perspective, or something. I think I lost my metaphor… But you know what I mean? Maybe it wouldn’t even bug me if she was a nice person who could exhibit more than bitterness towards everyone.

Robin Antim is as Interesting as an Old Toothbrush

I cannot stand the show Girlicious. Or, I’m sorry, I mean the Pussycat Dolls Present: Girlicious. I really liked the idea of the fun Pussycat Dolls when they were doing burlesque shows, like we saw in Charlie’s Angels. Then they became…I don’t know. All but one of the girls were re-cast, and they became a pop group. Bad ones.

They sing songs that I don’t want to listen to. In fact, I find it funny that there is a reality show about becoming the next PCD group when the PCD group doesn’t have too much star quality (or any) and they haven’t had a new song or hit in forever. So much so that they have to use the same Don’ t Cha song for the theme song of the second series of the PCD reality show.

The woman who ‘makes’ the group is Robin Antim. She reminds me of Janice Dickinson, only less interesting. ( 7 Confessions has a morsel of news about her. ) She is a very unattractive woman who seems to be vicariously living through the younger girls. She probably secretly hates them all. But if she didn’t do the show, mostly no one would know who she is. She mostly bitches and then says ‘you looked hot, you looked fierce, you rocked it’.

The winner (Asia Nitollano) of the Pussycat Dolls Present: The Search For the Next Doll is no longer a part of the group. Rumors that she decided for a solo career are what I find on Wikipedia. I think she probably was kicked out!

Also, the name Girlicious is very, let’s say - not original. The former runners-up of Search for the Next Doll performed under the name Girlesque when they didn’t win.

What else is going on? Bitten and Bound has a list of Glamour’s top ten most fashionable women. There are two ex-TV stars, but no current TV stars on the list.

Pop Crunch has the image of Kristin Bell as a Pin-Up girl in Vanity Fair. It’s gorgeous.
