Alamela

Her photo is probably one of the best of the bunch, but I still don't really see a model in person. To me, her personality is getting kind of stale.

Alexandra

Another great photo from Alexandra. I think it is my favorite of the bunch. As much as I hate her and think she looks terrible in person, I have to admit that she can take fierce photos. I don't think the judges could possibly justify sending her home anytime soon.

Alyce

Her photo is okay, but she looks dreadful in person with her pointy chin. She also always shows up to judging with really greasy-looking hair. I also can't stand her personality. Napoleon was right, she is fake fake fake. I can't stand her constant giggling and pretend laugh.

Belinda

Her face is being covered, but other than that, it is a decent photo. She has kind of faded in person and I wouldn't be upset if she left anytime soon.

Caris

Please send Fishface home NOW!!! She is really annoying with her crying. I can't believe she was called first, especially for this photo. Please.

Demelza

Not the best photo, although it did seem like there were plenty of other better ones that they could have chosen for judging. Still, I think she looks the best in person. She has the height, the face, and is of proper age. Now if she could only start to lose a few inches in her thighs and hips.

Emma

Poor Emma I knew she probably wouldn't last very long, but I still wished she would be able to pull through for a couple more rounds. Her photo definitely isn't one of the worst. That one guest judge seemed to be gunning for her though and she was pretty atrocious at the elimination challenge.

Jamie

I don't really like it. Her legs look short. Still, you can actually tell she is modeling shoes, unlike some of the other photos. I like her personality, but I don't think she is a good model.

Leiden

Ugh. She is one of the biggest frauds in the whole house. She acts like she's tough, but then she freaks out over Edward Scissorhands? With that said, however, I liked her photo this week and I don't think she deserved to be in the Bottom 2 (the whole judging this week seemed strange to me. Something was off about it).

Rebecca

Now I think Rebecca's photo actually works. She was one of the few girls to actually model the shoes. Also, I think the pose is great. Her legs look long and thin, which is something you cannot say about a few of the other girls. Two good photos in a row puts her at the front of the pack with Alexandra I guess. I'm not completely sold on her though. I also don't really have an opinion on her as a character.

Samantha

Another week and Samantha still serves up a mediocre picture. Again, I think she is probably the most gorgeous girl in the house, but she just hasn't shown that she is a good model. She is still one of my favorites though, so hopefully she will vastly improve in the coming weeks.

I am going to reserve judgment until I see the entire episode, but from what reports say, I am probably going to have to change my avatar:

Australia's Next Top Model rocked by bullying

AN explosive bullying attack on Australia's Next Top Model contestant Alamela Rowan, airing on pay-TV tonight, is set to send tongues wagging.

The disturbing footage shows the oblivious Byron Bay beauty being pelted with a water bomb and doused in a bowl of water, as well as weathering cruel verbal taunts from fellow contestants during the fourth series of the reality program.

Led by youngest contestant Demelza Reveley, 16, who ironically was the victim of schoolyard bullying in the past, the cruel attacks left Rowan, 17, suffering a tearful breakdown on air.
"It got to a point where it was a place I didn't want to be and I started getting really down," the Byron Bay beauty told The Daily Telegraph.

"I wasn't enjoying myself … I wanted to leave. It wasn't a place I wanted to be anymore and I didn't want to go back to that house everyday."

Filmed in Sydney and hosted by Jodhi Meares, 13 model hopefuls, all living under one roof, battle it out to join past winners Gemma Sanderson, Eboni Stocks and Alice Burdeu.

Struggling to cope with the pressure of studying for her High School Certificate as well as succeeding in the competition, Rowan says she was forced to face the situation alone without intervention from the show's producers.

Apart from a dressing down by Meares and judges Charlotte Dawson and Alex Perry about the indecent behaviour, no further action or punishment was placed on the bullies.
"There was no one in there to discipline the girls because we are expected to live on our own in a professional situation, which clearly wasn't happening, and there wasn't anyone we could go to," she says.

"I had to just take it."

Dubbed the Dapto Dogs by Dawson, Wollongong based Reveley defended the hostile scenes saying Rowan was targeted because the group was bored and she was different.

"I guess it was out of boredom more than anything else," she says. "I think the reason Alamela was in the firing range was because she was very different from a lot of the girls in the house and separated herself very early on. I guess we didn't understand her … there was a barrier."
