The Art of Deception - 
by J-Unit
Ahhhh, America's Next Top Model. Is there any better hump day respite than seeing a bunch of modeling wannabes compete for a Cover Girl contract and Tyra Banks' affection? Over the last few episodes, we got rid of perhaps the prettiest girl in the whole competition (Kyle), fake eliminated two girls only to let them continue on to London (Nicole and Jayla), and most recently, sent the girl who was taking the most consistently fierce photos (Lisa) back to Los Angeles, where she was last seen dealing with the pain by soaking in a bubble bath, talking to her potted fern, and finishing off a case of Two Buck Chuck. Once again, there are complaints that this group of models aren't really model material, but I once gain remind everybody that part of the reason for this show is great TV. Anybody who has actual talent that made it as a finalist will have enough publicity to get a good head start on a career, and so while we may not remember any of the remaining girls because they will grace the cover of Vogue in a few years, at least they are giving us plenty of drama every Wednesday. Some people may have wondered if Lisa's departure would jeopardize the amount of conflict in the house, but after one week without her, we can say that is definitely not the case.
As much as people didn't like Lisa, everybody was shocked that she was going home. During their confessionals, they all said how surprised they were at her elimination because they thought she would be in the final three. Even Kim didn't have a bad thing to say about her, but I am guessing that is because their new confessional room is not soundproof, and consists of a couch in some unidentified hotel suite. I guess she didn't want to start talking about people, lest they make a big situation out of the entire thing. Then again, Kim really thought that she and Bre were back to being friends. The two of them were discussing how amazing it would be if both of them were in the final three together. Personally my final three would be Nik, Bre, and Jayla. Nicole is just more and more spoiled every week, and Kim is starting to remind me of the mascot for Bob's Big Boy with that face of hers.
What I was wondering, however, was if Kim and Bre had really decided to let things go. Kim was seeing things like the fight in the limo was "blown out of proportion" and that they've "put their problems aside" and they "care about each other and want to help each other out". I am sure that is how everything goes in Kim's fantasy world, but in the real world, I don't think that was the case. Bre sees she is getting closer to the finish line and desperately wants to win. She has tried to be everybody's friend during their time in Los Angeles, but she was not afraid of making enemies now that they were in London.
