America's Next Top Model - Cycle 9

Episode 2 - The Models Go Green

At the beginning of the show the girls discover their transporation for the competition is as green as they are as models. The green theme extendeds to their new house ...... including limiting shower times to conserve water. Of course the girls found another good way to conserve water, 12 girls in one bathtub.

The first big photot shoot is a double shot that will be made into one photo to show the dangerous and deadly side effects of smoking. Basically a before and after looking into the mirrir shot.

One surprise at the shoot was Miss "I think i'm god's gift to modelling" Ebony wasn't really good at all. She was very wooden and emotionless. I figured she's be another girl that was bitching that I couldn't stand but the judges loved that'd sail all the way to the end.

The claws are already out in full force at the shoot when Lisa and Bianca waste no time in getting catty. When back at the house they made up but in one of her confessional pieces Bianca confessed that she only said she was sorry to Lisa so it didn't come up in panel with the judges. If you ask me she's lucky Lisa didn't punch her lights out for saying a stripper would never win ANTM!

As I expected some of the girls are already giving Heather, who has a mild form of autism, a hard time and talking about her behind her back. In my opinion they're just jealous because Heather is absolutely gorgeous and photographs especially well.

For this weeks challenge the girls have 10 minutes at Old Navy to find some basic pieces to create a personal style to wear at panel, and the winner will be picked by the judges. OMG that store looked like a bomb went off after they all tore it like a whirlwind!! It was nuts. I can only imgine what the show had to pay for that was to destroyed to put back on the rack.

Back at the house Heather hears some girls talking behind her back and she calls her mom and starts to cry. It really breaks my heart because I think she's so brave to do this competition despite the fact that her disabillity makes it very difficult for her to deal with social situations. And other then jealousy I can't figure out why the girls are being so mean, why would they care if she was quiet and kept to herself. It's not a social situation reality show where if you're isolated you get voted out, it's a modelling competition and as long as she can do that who cares!

After all the girls have their personal evaluation of both their photo shoot picture and the outfit they picked for the Old Navy Challange it's announced that Saleisha won the challenge and her prize is a shopping spree and she gets to do an Old Navy Photo shoot. Also at Tyra tells the girls that this will be a non smoking cycle of America's Next Top Model.

The suspense begins ... Tyra stands in front of the girls holding one less picture then the number of girls and every girl is hoping their picture comes out of that pile because if it doesn't they're gone. The first picture is given to ........ *insert dramatic pause* .... HEATHER! Tyra tells her that her and the other judges were blown away by her and I couldn't be more proud! When it's down to 2 pictures Tyra asks the two remaining girls, Mila and Ebony, to step forward. After explaining what put each of the 2 girls in the bottom 2 she reaches for the last photo ...... and it's .... Ebony!! That really sucks becausea she rubbed me the wrong way right from the beginning. Until next week .... stay beautiful ;)
