She's destined for bottom three next week for sure, they'll want to mix it up. I also think Holly is a good model, but she seems kinda "hippy" to me. Or was it my tv?
And has anyone yet figured out how the winner is chosen?

Whew, Shannon deservedly avoids the bottom three again. She is a fantastic model, and that's why she's still there. I don't find her boring at all,
but she's earned her spot in the top 5 easily. Yes, I know this is a reality show etc, but I think she's a great model, professional, takes this
seriously (even if it is really only a reality show) and doesn't act like an arrogant douche or belligerent little fucktard.

Perry should have been in the bottom for being too cocky and embarrassing at both the party and at Bloomingdales. That said, I'd hit it! |

I cannot believe Frankie got booted before that hick Ben. I hope he grows his Fabio even longer.
My hate for Ben has become unhealthy, I loathe him. Holly can't be a supermodel, she is completely retarded and can't talk. I love Ronnie to pieces but the judges criticism of his "butler" walk was totally spot on. |

Ewww, I couldn't stand Frankie and I'm so glad he's gone. I think he looked much better once they cut his hair, but supermodel? NO!

Oh, and why did that whiner Holly say that she wished Frankie and CASEY get auf'ed cuz they were disrespectful? When has Casey ever been disrespectful? He
seemed to take Ben's taunts in stride last week and is the most mature of the group. Holly is such a dipshit.
It also doesnt make sense to have bottom 3 at this point with so few conestants left. Should switch to bottom 2. Ronnie should have not been in the bottom, he looked gorgeous and elegant in his tux. Ben is the new Katy. |

Carboys, i agree that Frankie ain't no Supermodel but he'll do fine just as a model. But Frankie > Ben anytime of the day.
Is it me or does Casey have a serious case of wonk eye? |

All they have to do his edit a clip of him saying he hates Project Runway, Janelle from Big Brother is a whore, and Christian should NEVER of won Project Runway and he will be booted in a blink of an eye.Ben probably doesn't watch $@@*+$ shows like Project Runway. |

For some weird goofed-up reason, the first director totally ignored Ronnie. And that was an absolute crime. Because of his blind stupidity, not only did that
lead to Ronnie being in the bottom three, the director totally missed what could have been a smokin' hot scene:
Ronnie and Shannon for the "lover's goodnight" scene. The director was a moron for not giving Ronnie a try, ever. It took Ben's off-handed
joke to get dipshit to put Ronnie in front of the camera even once. Ronnie and Ben made a sexy couple while Holly and Ben.. bleh, snooze fest. Because the
missing "wow" factor was Ronnie. Plus, to me, Holly was still stiff although not as bad as when she did the underwear scene with Frankie a couple
weeks ago. Whereas what I saw in some of Shannon's scenes: she really interacted well with the other person she was with and she took whatever they brought
to the scene and turned up the volume. Ronnie does that too but by a factor of 10. He takes whatever the other person does and just.. multiplies it by a 100.
He doesn't try to overshadow the other person or make himself the "star", which is great because too much would kill the believability factor.
Plus Ronnie tends to almost non-verbally coach the other person into putting in more effort. So if Ronnie had been paired with Shannon for the lover's
scene? It would've been fireworks.
But no. So we have been denied what could have been really great pretend soft core porn and *that*.. is a crime. And what was that horrid gray crap Holly wore at the end? It made her look fat and I know that's not true. If it can make skinny Holly look fat, then anyone else who ever makes the mistake of putting on that piece of crap will look like beached whale. |

Ronnie was in the very first video shoot, the jealous roommate argument, with Holly and Perry.

Perry fuckin' blows. He looks like a neanderthal.
And I hate the two girls too. Holly does have some potential but she has to never speak again. That voice would scare anyone away. And Shannon is just too awkwardly tall and lanky. As crazy as it is...sometimes you can be TOO tall to be a model. F2 should be Holly and Ronnie. |

I have no doubt that if Holly or Shannon don't win, they will be able to walk into a top agency the next day and get signed on the spot.

What is all this shit about Shannon not having a personality? She announced on day one that she was a man trapped in a woman's body, she had the single
best line of the season so far about Frankie's laugh, she's stood up to Perry, and she's proven throughout that she's mature and driven,
especially when she worked through her sickness. I guess only loud, obnoxious people have personalities.
I still say she and Ronnie are the front-runners to win. Oh, and, uh, what does pigeon-toed mean? |

I've only seen a few episodes. Has it ever been told what Shannon's actual height is? I couldn't find any mention of it on the official website. I
know that Elle Macpherson is easily six feet, but that may not be an issue for swimsuit or lingerie modeling.

I'm done with Perry. I'd still hit it, but as a model he continues to plateau.
Holly is maintaining, but ultimately there's something about her that's very eh. It's weird that's she's gotten rejected from so many modeling agencies. I think she's perfectly okay to sign. I don't know maybe it's that "eh" personality that kills it for her. I don't know if she would be memorable in a room full of equally stunning models. Shannon is still one of my favorites. And the panel nailed it when they mentioned that she may not have the WOW personality factor with them but she does when she's around the clients. But male and female modeling are two distinct categories of modeling. It's more important to have personality in male modeling. You may not have the right look but get booked because you spark the right energy with the client. Whereas with female modeling it's all about the look. The right attitude will seal the deal, but it's all about whether you fit whatever the client is looking for at that moment. My poor, Ronnie. He didn't deserve to be in the bottom three, but there are so few people left I understand why he's there. I think Perry did outperform him by just a tad this week. I must say that his chemistry with Ben is off now, but it has more to do with Ben than with him. Ben is performing like he wants to go home. I guess he's exhausted of the process. Basically, he looks like he doesn't give a fuck. And I really hope he goes home this week. He doesn't seem to want to be there anymore and everything is annoying him. Compare his attitude to the beginning of this season and there is marked decline in enthusiasm and drive. I love my little Casey. I think he needs to have sex though. His androgyny is working a spell on his performance. It's causing him to be ambivalent about everything. He needs to rub one out or something. He's so pretty and confused. I'm more and more convinced that he's gay because he only seems to sparkle when playing Perry's bitch. [ETA: Elle Macpherson is easily 6'1". If a client like her look, height won't be that big an issue. There are always exceptions to the 5'9"-5'11' rule.]

Ben is a moron. Of course modeling is sales. In the real world, modeling does NOT require direct contact/interaction with the customer. Yes, by modeling products in photos and on a runway, you are selling those products, but that is a totally different skill-set than what was asked of them last night. Maybe if you are a boat-show model or something, you will have to huck the product to crowds like a snake-oil salesman, but not in fashion modeling... I don't fault Ben for being uncomfortable with it or feeling awkward. Still, he really should have sucked it up and not come off quite so defeated... Naj is right, the two girls are absolutely devoid of any personality whatsoever, which is something needed to become a successful model. Holly sounds like a a gerbil on crack and looks like Peter Pan, Shannon is just...........................................................................exactly. I disagree. Most successful working models don't have to show their own personalities at all. Yes, they have to affect personalities to pull off photo shoots and runway performances. Both Shannon and Holly have proven themselves able to do so. They are just boring as fuck as human beings. I would argue that a SUPERmodel needs personality because she (men really aren't supermodels) has to transcend the ordinary and become a celebrity based on how much more she's got going than a regular model... Perry looks great, but his walk ain't all that, and his personality ruins him. He's a child. Not professional. At all. Perry is totally professional on the job. He's a child at home. I still fail to see why his personality at home is relevant. As for Bloomingdales, he was over-the-top, the lady said something to him, he toned it down, and (according to HER) then did a fantastic job. These beginning models are not expected to know how to do everything perfectly. If they can adjust their performance instantly to what is required, that is not a drawback... e.t.a. Perry, if you ever get tired of being treated badly by your girlfriend, I'm available. |

Thanks, Sugarhill. I knew Elle was a big girl, but it sure hasn't stopped her from achieving a huge amount of success. I'm also on the same page as you
regarding Casey. I love the sculpted, Nordic look that he has going on. There's nothing wrong with him that a few years of experience and
confidence-building can't cure. If he just needs someone to stroke his ego and tell him he's beautiful every hour on the hour, I'll gladly
vollunteer.

Casey is so young. He has plenty of time to become a model since men can do it forever. And he will look SO much hotter as he gets a little older. Right now he
still has a baby face.

Drew, you're such an apologist. There are many facets to modeling of which you are not aware. Last night's Bloomindales challenge is not all that
uncommon. Sometimes models are hired to showcase clothes in that manner. Not all assignments are as glamorous as photo shoots and fashion shows. The dirty
little secret of modeling is that sometimes models, especially those just starting out, are hired as live mannequins. Read the blog post below about another
funny and bizarre, yet high paying, modeling assignment where agencies rack in the dough.
http://jezebel.com/353894/fit-modeling-sort-of-like-the-100+an+hos-?model-equivalent-of-sweatshop-labor And you continue to hold on to the celebrity aspect of the supermodel definition? You neglect to understand that models only become household names because they their image is splashed everywhere. And their image is splashed everywhere because they are constantly working. Being a supermodel has very little to do with personality and much more to do with being in demand. The supermodels of today and the past were known because they were the models in demand. They worked themselves into the public's consciousness. One of the only reason why even a small segment of the American public knows Giselle Bundchen is because she dated Leonardo DiCaprio. In fact the main reason why some supermodels are more well known than others is because they date famous musicians, actors, or athletes. |
