I am not done with the recap, but I just got to the part about GOOGLING apple bottom.

I also suck a googling. Some of my favorites? "Funny Holocaust", (I don't remember what this was for) "Eating Fetuses" (I wanted a picture of a fetus in the womb eating through a umbilical cord) and "Naked Angelina Jolie Lizard" (I wanted to see how "naked" she was in Beowulf).

I am going to hell, I know.

"Are you sad that Fatima doesn't resemble the donkey from Shrek as much anymore?"

I believe you meant Marvita? Fatima and Marvita look nothing alike, except for the fact that they're black...
other than that, very funny recap

Omg, I have so much to say!
First, an Apple Bottom is a phat ass (in a good way), and Nelly's female clothing line. The fact that Fatima said Allison had a Apple Bottom is utterly ridiculous because Allison's ass was flat as hell.

The makeovers were terrible! The only one that actually improved her look was Claire. The weaves look terrible. I have been getting weaves for the past five years, and never once have I cried in pain from it. It hurts when you have an inexperienced stylist doing it. Plus, most of the hair looked shiny and plasticky, and not like real human hair.

What the hell was up with Allison, she acted like an idiot-bitch. I'm so happy she's gone.

Hoolia, you are my new favorite recapper!!!

Allison said that black girls like to take it from behind. Racist idiot.

I've got to quit saying which girls I like out loud because those tricky elves from the CW keep reporting it back to the network and overnight those girls manage to turn into idiots and get dropped from the competition.

That said... I'm going to go out on a limb and say I love Whitney, Claire and KatztyracantsayyournameandneithercanI.

Poor Marvita's weave was just f-ing awful. It's like the editors are trying to see how much they can get her to look like a horse before she realizes whats going on.

Fatima's personality is as annoying as Stac(e?)y-Ann's voice. I feel for you getting your junk cut out, but I don't think that gives you a free bitch pass for life.

Have to say that I think there are some "high fashion" possibilities in this crew.

I love Claire. Eyebrow thing or not, she is going to go very far.

And may I say that I do like Marvita with the horse tail thing.

(Has anyone here got a chance to view Australia's "Kath and Kim"? - Only playable through the computer and they are going to do an American remake, but the horse hair thing got me giggling.)

Okay, this is Claire's to lose, and the other one, who wears the Doc Martin's and is all punk.

And man, was this episode every telegraphed as to who was going a'home, eh?

Great recap to the recap writer. You make watching TV and reviewing it later, fun.
XO

I meant, "was this episode ever telegraphed, eh?" as opposed to what I did write.

Man, all this technology and still, we have typos.

JazzHands - Oops, I totally didn't catch that. What can I say, when two characters bicker with each other like Fatima and Marvita did last week, their names sort of stick interchangeably in my brain. I do know the difference between the two, I promise!

MrsBoJangles - Thanks for the apple bottom definition. I just never understood where to draw the line between a good big booty and a too-fat big booty. Clearly, if I was a guy, I'd be a breast man. Boobies are far easier to judge, in my opinion.

Besides Whitney and Claire, I've got high hopes for Lauren (the punk rocker) and Katarzyna, too - I'm just looking forward to getting to see their personalities a bit more which should happen as the dead weight gets cut.

love love love the recap-
funny how people change-Marvita actually looked good which i thought was impossible. I am so glad the got rid of the racist egomaniac bitch Allison-i just wanted to smack her upside her head when she just stood there when tyra told her how pretty she was-someone like that is NO role model for ANYONE-otherwise i think poor Dominique would of gone home alright. Looking forward to see next week in there will be any change in her look-Thank you Hoolia-its been fun! Did i mention that i still think Fatima is kind of a bitch too? She says mean things for no reason-until you almost don't feel sorry for her anymore

HOW MEAN! of them to make Marvita look even more like a horse!

AND i kept complaining to my boytoy (who was watching with me by force) about the weird hats, and was like "duh, to hide their new haircuts."

anyway, all the long bangs a lot of the girls got inspired me and i chopped my hair last night... oops

I honestly think sometimes Fatima doesn't realize what she says is mean or rude. Then again when someone calls her on it she should just shut her mouth.

I was so rooting for Allison to get the heave ho. I feel for Dominique because that hair cut is doing nothing for her and it they cut her I think it will be partly their faults.

Allison was such an asshole. Giving her das boot was maybe ANTM's finest moment.
Also, I am kind of digging Marvita's hair. Just putting that out there.

I agree Allison's comments were idiotic...but we're talking about models here. Not exactly God's gift to intellect. And Allie got the boot not for bad pictures, but for being stupid enough to make racist comments on a show run by a black woman with a sizable derriere. Whereas I understand Tyra's instinct to oust the girl, this is America's Top Model, not America's Top Social Skills.

There are too many women this season who look like guys, and whose heads look too big for their bodies. And two in particular who are just butt-ugly.

The make-over makes Whitney appear to have a flat face...and in her lingerie photo she looked like she smelled something bad.

I want someone to please make Fatima eat something. Anything.

I'm a Claire fan.

I'm definitely rooting for Claire and Aimee this season - everybody else sucks, basically.

1) Dominique looked like a man. Now she looks OLD and that soccer mom 'do isn't helping.
2) Fatima needs to STFU. I am over her - she's such a bitch.
3) Marvita has a MULLET. And, she looks like a horse. Even moreso now. Ugh.
4) I don't mind Whitney and Lauren - they're my 4th and 3rd favorites, respectively.
5) Katarzyna is pretty but forgettable.
6) Allison was an egomaniac and a HUGE dumb bitch and I am so glad that she is gone.
7) Amis is becoming more annoying and she's very forgettable.
8) Aimee is pretty cute. I am loving the red hair, actually.
9) Claire rocks. my. socks.

If I've forgotten someone, they probably don't matter.

I've been reading TVgasm for years but this is the first time I've ever actually made a screen name and posted.

Anya's post-makeover shot, the top one on page 3 of the recap; she looks so much like a young Joely Richardson from Nip/Tuck. I could be crazy but that was the first thing that popped into my head when I saw that shot.

I think Anya resembles Celine Dion...weird, I know, but especially in that picture, she just looks like her!

Had to catch this epi over the weekend on the rebroadcast, but hmmm. First, Marvita ROCKED that photo--best by a long shot, and I'm so happy to see her show some high fashion, for reals, I'm glad it's not just stunt casting. Fatima is 100% aware she's on a reality show, and is stirring the pot in the right ways for editors--crying on the makeover--notice what was hyped in the trailers--she did lay off Marv this week. Allison, Allison, Allison . . . I know you're going to read this, so girl listen . . . you've got some issues going on, and they'll get in your way for life--I'd address them if I were you. It's obvious to me that one (completely wrong) comment about your body sent you into an anorexic melt down, and it really de-railed you. Find a way to love yourself for who you are, and figure out what's troubling you, and I will wish you the best. And for the racist comment, hmmm, is it bad to like it from the back--just kidding, resorting to doll play, and acting out vengeful scenerious is seriously disturbed--I know you got the boot coz the show did not want to be responsible for your inevitable melt down. I know you claim to be all that, but truly, you need to believe it!

okay, I'm off the soap box now, but she reminds me of women I've known . . .

Anya, and Dominique . . . not feelin' it--I'm on the Whit, Claire and Aimee train, also like Lauren, but don't know if she can pull it off. I do think Marv and Fat will make thier way into the top tiers . . . we'll see . .. Thanks for the recap Hool, and this week, even I could see the bottom 2, and obvious cast off . . . HEART

arrghh did any one else notice that Tyra was mocking the girls while the makeovers were going on. It was really starting to piss me off.

The reason Allison got kicked off is because she wasn't kissing Tyra and Nigels asses. You know that makes or breaks a model on this show.

I agree w/ the little mermaid comment and also the Jolie Richardson- my boytoy called it.

grr it wouldn't post my comment so if this goes twice, sorry!

Agree on the mermaid and Jolie comments.

Did anyone else notice Tyra mocking the girls during the makeovers. Not cool. I was starting to get mad.

Allison got kicked off b/c she wasn't kissing Tyra and Nigel's asses. That's the kiss of death on this show.

So about the weave:

When done the way hers was done, with small corn rows done in concentric circles and the hair sown in, it hurts like hell. I've never had a weave, but I used to have braids when I was little and your head hurts like crazy during and after all the pulling of your hair.

Fatima is annoying, but she wasn't crying BECAUSE she was getting a weave or different hair, she was crying because it hurts like hell to get a weave, especially if you've never had one before.

And that Allison bitch needed to go. She wasn't kicked off because she wasn't kissing ass, she was kicked off because she made a racist remark and had zero humility and CAN'T MODEL. If she'd done all that shit and had a fabulous picture, they would not have eliminated her but sorry, can't have a shitty photo and a shitty attitude.

ok i am sorry but Claire now looks EXACTLY LIKE MR. JAY.

I absolutely hate that fatima biatch. she just is an evil mean person. also, she just looks to me like she smells bad. you all know what i mean by that. like britney spears. that chick just looks like she smells bad. i feel the same with this chick.

Hoolia, speak for yourself:

"Like any woman on this planet, Allison's pissed and makes a comment about being anorexic as she hightails it out of the room."

Only in America and Europe is it good to have no ass...and not even in all of America. Having an "apple bottom" is the best compliment a woman can get on her figure where I come from. Fatima was right when she said that Allison has an apple-bottom (for a white girl, anyway). It's more about the shape, less about the bigness. Allison actually has a nice shape and Fatima was kinda-complimenting her. Women from Somalia are known for their....weird body shapes. Big heads, small torsos, wide hips, and no ass.
