America's Next Top Model: model makeover!
Sorry this is so late, everyone! But this was a great episode! The girls all received major makeovers--they even shaved all of Bianca's hair off! Ms. J originally wanted to dye her hair blonde, but Bianca's hair was too damaged, it would've all just fallen off anyway. So they shaved her head, while tears streamed down her face, and then gave her a blonde wig. Tyra and the judges all thought Bianca looked much better without her hair, and I have to agree--she looks so much more elegant and beautiful now. The aspiring models then had a photo shoot where they posed as types of flowers and plants with their new looks. A lot of the girls had trouble with this shoot, especially poor Chantal who was posing as baby's breath, which should have been easy. But Jay Manuel and the photographer kept saying completely different things as to how they wanted her to pose, and she got so frustrated that she couldn't produce a good shoot.
The next challenge was the Cover Girl Makeup Challenge. Each girl had to do her own makeup with a dramatic eye and glossy nude lips, plus find the rack with her name on it and put on the clothes provided. But Saleisha didn't win this one, for once! Maybe because the girls were pushing her out of the way? Janet did an amazing job on her makeup, but, unfortunately, she couldn't find the rack with her name on it, so just picked a dress she thought looked could, but didn't win because of it. So, the winner of the makeup challenge was Sarah, who created a winged eye. She now gets to be in a shoot for a Cover Girl spot on their new Web site showing how to use their new tool.
But it's not just how you take a picture or the makeup and clothes you wear that makes the model, as the judges proved this show. Victoria's snapping back to Twiggy every time cost her being the next Top Model. She didn't seem to really want to be there, anyway. I thought it was pretty inconsiderate how she started taking off her shoes as soon as they announced the last girl picked. What do you think?
