I wish I was a man so I could just ask a male coworker if he was “going to finish that?” Cuz If I ask now they would snicker and think very weirdly of me. Also I think I have crossed my Taco Bell eating threshold! I don’t think i can anymore taco bell atleast for a while!!!

On to ANTM

Overall pretty entertaining episode, the girls learned to walk down stairs and walk with accessories and then they had a walkoff at Kmart with various props and then the winner and friends ( Becky, Naima, Sara, Kahlen ,Lluvy and Noelle) go to meet a famous shoe designer and get to pick out a pair of shoe each while the other girls have to “service them”. Their photo shoot is one for 1800 flowers where the girls pose with 10 dogs, flowers and a male model in the background. At the judging they sashay in a burlap sack, Becky faints and Sarah gets eliminated. Some of the girls also find out that Michelle is bi-sexual.

Naima: She looks like a rock star! She was second in the walk off and the judges liked her pic. But she might get eliminated later on cuz Nigel mentioned she might not be everyone’s cup of tea. But she looked awesome especially in the walk off

Kahlen: I still think she is funny and goofy, although her pic wasn’t that great

Brittany: I still think she has an awesome personality. Was in the bottom two this episode but she might bounce back! She is down on my list cuz she looked really weird during elimination. I thought it was funny that Janice Dickinson was annoyed at all the comparisions between the two.

Brandy: I still have issues with Brandy’s personality but her cheek bones are so cool! She looks like she could be a really awesome model like Iman or Naomi Campbell

Keenyah: I liked her photo a lot, as did the judges. She seems nice and funny but it seems like she did well on a fluke and got lucky so her reign maybe short lived.

Christina: I did not like her pic at all, it looks like the flowers are tail. But she seems nice and didn’t get any negative airtime so I think she will be around for a while

Lluvy: She seems cute. I liked the pic. Hard to tell !

Tatiana: Looks like a model from vogue. Hardly got any airtime. Seems really young and giggly

Tiffany: i still don’t think she will be a good model. But her pic was good and I think she will create more drama, so they will keep her around for a while.

Becky: She is really self confident , slightly bitchy and has a weird disease…yup she will be around for a while. Her photo was okay

Noelle: She could be another pretty girl who works at the gap! I couldn’t find anything that made her stand out.

Michelle: She let out that she was bi- surprise. Really I don’t understand why teh have her on the show. I don’t think the blonde thing really works for her. Her photo was striking, but she is still at the bottom of my list.

Sarah: Eliminated. If it had been her against another girl, I would have rooted for her, but since it was down to her and Brittany, she had to go! Seemed kinda dumb.

Thursday

1 bowl cheerios
1 chalupa
1 chicken quesadilla
1/2 frozen cheese pizza
two vodka and juice drinks

Last night went to the weekly kickboxing class with coworker. Good workout but not the greatest since I was about ten minutes late and we only walked around the track after the class instead of our usual running!

Also…the reception is starting to look more promising….yaaaaay!

Anyway to more important things like…ANTM update. Good show overall, but I thought the fake little “scare” before they saw their loft was lame! But, I think basing this season in LA will be really cool; will add more west coast flair to the proceedings.

Model Eliminated: Brita, I am actually a little surprised by this, cuz she looks really hot and “model like” but she weighed in at 158 and was a good 20-25 lbs heavier than the other girls. I thought that was a little sad, considering she did have the most “normal body” as in most girls would relate to her body and body issues better than they would a plus size model or a model who is a size 2 trying to be a size 00. I mean she is what most girls look like…not fat or skinny.

What is really funny about all of this is right before the show they were advertising an open casting call for ANTM where they said girls with all body types should apply , the only requirements were that they should be at least 5’7 and between 18-27 years old. This is total bullshit because they basically eliminated Amanda last season cuz she was “too old” and she was only 25 and Brita was 25 as well and came under the umbrella of “all body types”.

I know this is a shallow show about pretty girls pretending like they have it so hard, and honestly I love this show because it is “low brow” entertainment in the middle of the week and provides me an escape into imagining a glamour filled world. My main issue is everyone who watches this show knows its shallow and its about skinny, young and hot girls, so why pretend its about beauty on the “inside”

It seems to me that Tyra Banks likes to bring a couple of “different” girls like Brita, and Toccara to basically humiliate them on the show and she thinks it makes her look accepting and beautiful on the “inside”. Honestly Tyra, the show is a lot more fun when you don’t try to incorporate the fake moral message about acceptance and trying to set an example …blah blah blah

Other Models: In order of most fave to least fave

Brittany: She is my favorite, she is funny and weird and looks super hot. I think they will keep her around because of her personality and charisma

Kahlen: I liked her, cuz she seemed silly and goofy. She took good pics but the judges thought she looked drab in person. I agree since her hair was a total mess

Naima: She is so exotic looking, one of my faves. I couldn’t tell too much difference before and after the makeover, like Brittany she seems bad ass!

Tatiana: She looks like a traditional model too and the photographer really liked her. She has gotten only positive airtime, so she will probably be around for a while

Sarah: She seemed kinda sporty and tom boyish, I liked her hair cut too.

Noelle: I thought she looked awesome with her new blowout but she went back to her cocktail waitress look, which doesn’t really do a lot for her, but she seems cool overall

Christina: The photographer liked her, and said she took good pics. Not a lot of air time

Keenyah: I think she didn’t mean to be a bitch, but she came off sounding bitchy and people were getting sick of brandy and didn’t want to deal with one more whiner. Don’t think she is too pretty but okay.

Brandy: So bitchy, but once they got rid of the weird hair you could tell she has awesome bone structure. Also she creates drama, so I think she will be around for a while. Reminds me of a whinier Eva

Tiffany: I think she has a cool story and a cool personality but I am not sure she is that good looking or will be a really good model and that’s what they kept talking about on the show too .

Rebecca: She is a self proclaimed bitch, but seems nice enough so far and she is pretty

Lluvy: I don’t think she is too pretty, judges didn’t like her too much either

Michelle: I don’t really understand why she is even on the show. I think they are trying to make a new Shandy but I don’t think its going to happen.

Wow that was a long one…phew…
