Call of the Wild - 
by J-Unit
While I love that the entire season of America's Next Top Model has taken place in Los Angeles, it does deprive us of one of the greatest parts of the show, and that is watching the models as they travel. These girls have no clue what they are talking about when the background is American culture. And while it was nice when I had to augment everybody's knowledge Los Angeles (some appreciating it more than others), it would be even better if we got a wonderful "I eat Japanese, I love Panda Express" type of moment. So when I learned that the remaining six top models would be traveling to an undisclosed location, I could barely control my excitement.
The Deadly Sins shoot was a decent concept, but I thought the pictures were so very underwhelming. The new Tyra mail for this week asked the girls who was ready to get wild. Tyra is usually very transparent with her punny messages, so we were all expecting that some sort of wildlife would be involved. We were proven correct and the girls met Miss Jay somewhere in the Valley for some up and close with some animals. Jay said that he was going to bring out three animals, and they were going to have to learn how to mimic that animal and pose like that animal.
Everybody loves the animal segment of every show ever produced, but a lot of the girls were quite apprehensive about being part of the animal segment. They were less excited about learning from the animals and more worried that they were going to eaten alive. Luckily, some of the young ladies had a plan. Take Christina for instance. If she was in danger, she had the perfect plan. She would turn around and run, because that's what she does best, and thank God she's fast.
Now, I understand that Christina may be unfamiliar with animals, but I can't think of one person who has ever recommended running away from an animal out to get you. What sort of animal did she think they were going to pose with, a manatee? Christina was soon desponded to learn from the two animal handlers, Jet and Eric, that the last thing you wanted to do was run away from an animal. It would be as useless as trying to beat Star Jones to a Krispy Kreme when the "Fresh Donuts" sign is lit up.
The first two animals were a leopard and a cheetah, and things went off without a hitch. The tiger sound a little hungry as it stared at Jay Alexander, but probably decided it didn't want the aftertaste from all the makeup he wears. The last animal to come out was a bear, and I know it was a bear, but did this bear ever have a slobber problem. But despite a little foam at the mouth, each girl was given a chance to have the bear eat a marshmallow out of their mouth.
