Rule Britannia/America the Beautiful

This cycle on ANTM: Despite being called “America’s Next Top Model,” Tyra brought over 7 former Britain’s Next Top Model contestants to compete with 7 new American contestants. There was a new judge—Kelly Cutrone, who many in the audience already hated from her other times on reality shows. The contestants survived each other’s food, the invasion of the Kardashians (actually the Jenners—it was Kris, Kendall and Kylie), odd makeovers, two girls quitting spectacularly, Laura’s overt sexuality and a photoshoot on top of Macau’s tallest building in gale force winds. In the end, one Brit (Sophie) and one American (Laura) remains. Who will be America’s Next Top Model? Find out!

When You Wish Upon a Perfume Bottle…

Last time on ANTM: The final five met Chinese action star/pop star Nicholas Tse. Laura immediately wanted to have sex with him. She ended up winning the acting challenge and later, Eboni says that Laura is sleeping her way to the top. While she was playing along with the joking (and repeating what some viewers were thinking), Laura decides to flip out on Eboni. The girls have to model on top of a frickin’ tall tower, outside, with Nigel Barker. Sophie and Alisha have nervous breakdowns, Annaliese and Laura are excited and Eboni is just meh. At panel, Laura got first photo while Alisha and Eboni ended up in the bottom two. Eboni was eliminated but Alisha asked to leave. She did so, but Eboni was not saved. Three models remain, who will be eliminated tonight? Find out!

Going to New Heights…And Familiar Lows

Last week on ANTM: The final six traveled to Macau! They met with a Chinese astrologer and had their fortunes read. The wannabes then had to adjust their outfits to match their elements. Laura won the challenge and had to take Eboni, who she admitted earlier to hating, along for a spa day. The girls then posed in Barney Cheng’s dresses, accessorized by silkworms. Laura rose to the top while Catherine and Alisha found themselves in the bottom two. Sadly, Catherine was sent home. Five girls remain; who goes home tonight?

Macau’s Next Top Model—Edwin the Silkworm

Last week on ANTM: The final seven wannabes went to a real life runway! Alisha, Annaliese and Sophie were chosen to open shows. The others girls walked in the show but Seymone still pouted about it. Alisha won the challenge. The girls then had a Hello, Kitty themed shoot with a young photographer. Georgina Chapman, co-founder of Marchese, was the guest judge and actually had some opinions. All the Brits and Laura were safe while Eboni and Seymone were in the bottom. Due to her attitude, Seymone went out on a really weird note. Six girls remain! Who is eliminated? Found out!

Hello, Kitty!

Last week: The girls were asked to do a PSA about being beautiful inside and out—to not listen to the bullies. The young girl Alisha was paired with brought everyone to tears—including the audience. The Brits win the PSA challenge and get video messages from home. Annaliese’s friend wishes her well, so does Catherine’s parents and her dog while Alisha’s family is proud of her. Sophie’s boyfriend blathers on about the weather. British singer Estelle shows up to help with the girls’ photoshoot which involves the booty tooch. Sophie excels while Alisha and Kyle fall flat. In the end, Kyle was sent packing. Seven wannabes remain, who goes home tonight? Find out!

Big Changes!

Changes on "America's Next Top Model"


Yep, you read that right. Next season, Cycle 19, will not see Ms. J Alexander, Mr. Jay Manuel nor Mr. Nigel Barker. I am sad as well. More about Mr. Jay and Nigel than Ms. J. He/She/It has been fading as the cycles have continued, since he/she/it left the judging panel. And there have been very few runway teaches and challenges. 


I'd rather have seen Mr. Jay on the panel, but he's got Canada's Next Top Model and will be fine. 


I'm just going to miss Nigel's accent. 


There's a poll on the site. Who will you miss? 

I Think I’d Like to Change My Table

Last week on ANTM: The Brits had some fun with Laura’s beloved teddy, not knowing it was a gift from her now dead best friend. When it appeared that Kyle was pushing the ear away in the pool (and it’s a pool, not the freaking ocean, go and fish it out!), Laura flips out and decides that Kyle is dead to her. Lisa shows up to tell the girls they will be making music videos. The Brits got Girls Aloud member Nadine Coyle as a mentor while the Americans got Pussycat Doll Jessica Sutta as theirs. Tyra taught the girls the art of the booty tooch but AzMarie refused to wear her butt pads. She ended up in the bottom two with Kyle who fell flat during the music video. In the end, you do not mess with Tyra and AzMarie was sent home. Who will go home tonight? Find out!

Never Mouth Back to Tyra

Last week on ANTM: There was no episode as One Tree Hill aired its two-hour series finale.


Two weeks ago on ANTM: Mr. Jay invited the remaining wannabes up to Canada for Toronto Fashion Week! The girls were sent to book some runways. Eboni and Sophie both booked four shows each while Catherine, Ashley and Seymone booked none. At the fashion show, Kyle and Laura were kicked off their show while Seymone moaned about not getting picked. Mr. Jay gave her a pep talk. The next day, Eboni and Sophie won the challenge and the wannabes had to pose in fake leaves while maple syrup was poured over them. Eboni and AzMarie rose to the top of the Americans while Sophie was the only Brit to place high in call-out. Catherine and Ashley were in the bottom two and my heart was broken when Ashley was sent back to Scotland. Nine girls remain, who will get eliminated tonight? Find out!

O Canada!

Last week on ANTM: The Brits dealt with the fallout of Louise quitting the competition. Then the girls were sent on a challenge with Ms. J and that heavily accented branding specialist. The girls had to film commercials for fake products and then get judged by a focus group. Eboni and Candace missed the point of the challenge when Kyle goofed in her commercial but still came off well to the focus group. She wanted to leave and moaned about it the rest of the episode. Nigel took their pictures where they wore fancy dresses and posed with classic cars. AzMarie got called first again while Candace and Eboni landed in the bottom two. While trying to say that Kyle was ready to  walk away, Candace was still kicked out by Tyra. Who will follow tonight? Find out!

Coming Soon to an Infomercial Near You!

Last week on ANTM: Tyra reminded us that she’s a published author! And that she graduated from Harvard! She assigned all the models these stupid superhero name. They then had to go meet Kelly at a studio where they were to run their own photoshoot. Split into teams, Annaliese was overwhelmed leading the Brits. On set, Louise and Kelly argued briefly. When Nigel called her photo “mean,” Louise went off, not helped when Kelly called her on her behavior. She stormed off, quitting the competition. Eleven wannabes remain, who will be eliminated tonight?

Walk Away

Last time on ANTM: The girls had to go through makeovers. Louise is difficult about getting hers and comes out the other end looking like Keira Knightley in my opinion (Tyra calls her Linda Evangelista). For the photoshoot, the girls posed with Kris Jenner and her youngest daughters Kylie and Kendall. Laura and Ashley rose to the top while Mariah and Seymone fell to the bottom. In the end, Seymone got to stay while Mariah was sent back to the reservation. Who goes home tonight? Find out!

Pick Your Hair Color from the Paint Swabs

Last time on ANTM: The British invaded again! Seven former Britain’s Next Top Model contestants were brought over to compete against seven amateur American contestants. They have a “fierce parade” in Universal City which includes a walk off. After, they pose for a 360 shot dressed as icons from their own period. At panel, we were introduced to new judge Kelly Cutrone. American Seymone was given best picture while a Brit and a Scot—Jasmia and Ashley—ended up in the bottom two. Personality saved Ashley, sending Jasmia back to England. Thirteen contestants remain—who will be given the boot tonight? Find out!

The British Are Coming, The British Are Coming…

America’s Next Top Model is back y’all! Five bucks says we will never find out what happened to disqualify Angelea during last season’s finale throughout the course of this one! Anyway…

Tyra talks about the British. So apparently it’s the British vs Americans. Doesn’t England already have “Britain’s Next Top Model”?

I Be Like Woah!

This past cycle on ANTM: Tyra brought back our favorite Top Model contestants…and Alexandria from last cycle. Tyra’s subjected them to Kardashians, Mario Lopez, music videos, her crazy antics, and Tyra’s own book. There are three girls left: Allison, Angelea and Lisa. Who will win the dubious honor again? Find out!

Tyra is a Best-Selling Author?!

Last time on ANTM: Ms. J caused DRAMA by making the girls critique each other. Dominique led the others in a round of “Why Angelea Won’t Win” and Angelea stormed out. But Ms. J let her have her moment before saying Laura won the challenge. Nigel took their pictures as Olympic athletes. Laura took the gold while Dominique and Angelea failed to place. In the end, Dominique was sent home for being “unmemorable.” You know, the same thing that sent Brittany home in Week 1. Four wannabes remain, who won’t make it to the finale? Find out!

The Fashion Olympics

Last week on Top Model: The top six models went to Greece. The models had to give a press conference where Angelea asked where the bathroom was. Allison impressed the Greek officials the most and won free bling. Mr. Jay then put the wannabes into lingerie and had them pose in a Greek salad. Even though the lingerie looked like bathing suits, Shannon refused to model them once she heard the word “underwear.” At panel, she fell into the bottom two with Laura. However, Shannon has never won a challenge or gotten first photo so she was sent home. Five wannabes remain, who is told “exo” this week? Find out!

(PS: “Exo” is Greek for “out”)

OPA!

Last time on ANTM: Tyra decided that since I started watching the show in Cycle 5 and missed “Shake Ya Booty,” I should be subjected to music videos. So each contestant had to write her own song, record it, get it autotuned and then make videos with Game. Allison rose to the top with her song inspired by her father’s untimely death while Angelea and Alexandria fell into the bottom due to not being engaging in their videos. But Angelea was just a tad more engaging, so Alexandria was (thankfully) sent home. Six girls remain, which means it’s time to go abroad! Who won’t spend more than a night or two? Find out!

And the Winner is…AUTOTUNE!

Last week: I fell asleep on my basement couch and woke up halfway through the episode. And I was still tired so I just left it on as background noise. I know it involved perfume, bathtubs, a motorcycle, either being Snooki or Nene, Bianca hording a jar of pickles, and Kathy Griffin. Lisa got first picture while Shannon, Kayla and Bianca fell into the bottom. Tyra did a double elimination, sending Kayla and Bianca packing. Seven all-stars remain, who falls tonight? Find out!

Yay, Violence!

Last week on ANTM: Shannon decided to head off drama by devising a phone system. Except she forgot how to count and didn’t budget time for everyone to use said phone. So Bianca asked her about it. Then Shannon started crying, Lisa butted in and Bianca was pissed the rest of the episode. They had to do a runway for the Kardashian sisters complete with a carousel before doing a photoshoot honoring Michael Jackson. LaToya Jackson was there to help them and to be the guest judge. Laura rose to the top while Lisa and Angelea sunk to the bottom. But LaToya decided no one was going home! So once again, ten All-Stars remain, will someone actually go home tonight? Find out!

(Don’t) Beat It!

Last week: Kayla had a racing heart and ended up in the hospital. When she came home, they went to the set of CSI to audition for showrunner Anthony Zuiker. And he’s awesome. The girls stumbled over the large words, but Lisa just bombs. Bre wins a role on CSI. They then had a shoot with Express, in which Bianca said she knew better than anybody else. At judging, Angelea rose to the top while Lisa and Camille fell into the bottom two. But Lisa stuck around, hopefully bringing more flashbacks of Cousin Itt with her, as Camille was sent packing. Who won’t reach the top tonight? Find out!
