Although I am still bitter about Mollie Sue leaving, I promise not to mention it too often. Besides, with Jade almost going home last week, it kind of took her down a notch. If we could only knock her down another ten or twenty notches, she might even be bearable. Jade said that she needed to redeem herself because she looked "like a damn fool" at the last elimination. I actually think it was the first time I agreed with what Jade had to say, but maybe that's because I have always thought she looks like a fool.

Since Jade was feeling kind of down and there was no Gina to pick on, we had to look for a source of conflict somewhere else in the house. If you can believe it, there is actually a lot of bad blood between Nnenna and Brooke. I can sort of understand where Brooke is coming from, because whenever she messes up, it seems to be Nnenna that is laughing the most. But I can also see Nnenna's perspective because, well, Brooke is funny and awkward at almost everything she does. Brooke's says that her main problem is that everybody calls Nnenna nice and sweet but don't really know the real Nnenna, but I think the problem is that Nnenna has what Brooke wants: pictures that the judges notice for other things besides her huge chin. You know, maybe it is Nnenna who is envious of Brooke; it's not every girl that could be a stunt chin for Jennifer Garner.

The first thing on tap for our models was a runway class with Miss J. Is anybody else getting sick of the stupid highlight "package" they show whenever Miss J appears? I can understand the first time she appears in a season, people might want a refresher, but considering she appears in every single show as a judge, why repeat those stupid clips, especially that final one from last year where Miss J is wearing that 40s swimsuit and you can see the bulge. You would think by now, Miss J would know how to do the tuck.

Miss J focused on what the girls should do on the runway when they have accessories. As much as I can't stand Miss J, you have to admit that she does have a lot of knowledge that is very useful to the aspiring model. Now if only she was funny at panel, I wouldn't have to make fun of her so much. But anyway, you know how when models are wearing a jacket on the runway and they take it off and flip it over the shoulder? Or when they are wearing some gloves and they take them off and place it in their hands? Or when they are holding a purse and they, you know, have to walk with it? Well, it all takes a little special skill. Oh, who am I kidding? It was all very easy, and nobody really had problems. Some people took a little time to get their jackets off and Brooke dropped her purse (and Nnenna laughed), but come on! Taking a jacket off? Shouldn't we be worried about some more pressing matters like maybe getting Joanie and Danielle to see a dentist or finding somebody to shoot Nnenna's boyfriend?

After leaving Miss J, the girls went on to see Richard and Ron Harris, who are known for, I shit you not, swirling. They call them the "Aswirl Twins'. Hey, pretty good work if you can get it, right? If you shaved Danny Glover's head, fed him a little, made him a little more fabulous, and then made a copy of him, you would get Richard and Ron Harris. Joanie called them "Count Dracula meets a hairdresser", which, if you translate Red State to Blue State, means "A Gay Count Dracula". Jade explained that "aswirl" is the movement in the garments, and she did it with this stupid accent she does when she is trying to be fabulous. I sort of want to reach into the TV, grab her neck and tell her that she isn't Katherine Hepburn, and therefore doesn't need to use her accent, especially when Spencer Tracy is nowhere to be found. I guess it was nice to see the Aswirl Twins, but I am not sure what they would have brought to the table that Miss J with a shaved head and pants couldn't.

When the girls got back home, everybody started talking about how Nnenna was talking on the phone. I don't blame them, because watching Nnenna talk with her boyfriend is annoying. Again, I don't know him, but he's not what I would call a keeper. Most guys with his type of looks settle for women that are a little more like Nell Carter than Naomi Campbell. Brooke is so upset that Nnenna has been on the phone for so long and decides to go in there and let Nnenna know exactly how she feels. I think it was good for Brooke to go in there, but if the girls actually wanted to get Nnenna off the phone, Brooke was a poor choice.
