And the nudity theme continues, and even intensifies! Tonight the models take it all off for the sake of art and ratings. Someone's got it in for Holly and her persistent Christian values on Make Me a Supermodel!
If we remember from last week, Holly, Jay, and Birdface Aryn are up for the vote. Beautiful Frankie says Holly will be leaving "fo sho," but I am personally not so "sho" she'll be going anywhere. The producers set Birdface up for a big fall this week, and I'm positive America ate it right up.
We get back to the catwalk, and rehash what makes these three supermodels supersuck. Holly couldn't make any chemistry with Frankie. Jay can't take a good photo, and Aryn looks too avian and wasn't believable in their shoot. The results are in, and Birdface is outta here! I don't know if anyone's noticed, but that means good old Sparkles is three for three on these predictions. Either I'm just as easily swayed by the editors as everyone else, or just supersmart. I'll let you decide.
While leaving, Aryn says that she's shocked and saddened by her elimination. She thinks she has a lot of potential, and is upset that America didn't agree. Aryn, I agree 100% in your potential to annoy me. Good thing you practically broke up with your boyfriend on the phone last week! I bet that's going to be fun to come home to.
"So, honey, remember when I said there was no way I would ever marry you because I'm going to be a supermodel? I was just kiddin."
After excusing Holly and Jay, Niki and Jennifer agree that America made the wrong decision. And they start Jaybashing...and never stop all episode. Looks like you're the chosen one this week, buddy! I hope you enjoyed your last hours in the house.
Back at the house, a PA tells the models to gather and ruminate on who will be leaving. Ben wants Holly to leave. Frankie wants Holly to leave. I also want Holly to leave, but not as much as I wanted Aryn to leave. Jacki says Aryn isn't trying. Apparently the first week, Aryn was on the treadmill every day, but she doesn't have her heart in it anymore. Ben sticks up for Aryn, which causes Jacki to snap back with, "I wouldn't know, I don't sleep with her every day." Burn! Ben say something that gets bleeped out, and oh how I wish we could know what it was! That prison-guard-cum-model has got some fight in him yet!
"We're just friends!"
Jay comes back in the front door and everyone cheers. Its hugs all around as they all know he'll be a cinch to hurtle over as the competition progresses. Jay goes back out into the hall and carries Holly in on his shoulders. If both those people are model-tall, I have no idea how they even fit through the door like that, but he didn't drop her or anything, so I guess it worked. The girls all hug Holly, but Ronnie, Frankie, and Ben look uncomfortable, disappointed, and surprised, respectively.
Casey talks to the boys about the girls' collective their two-faced-ness. Which seems kind of two-faced to me, but that's besides the point. Basically, everyone on this show talks shit about how everyone else is talking shit about everyone else. Its very cyclical and kind of beautiful in its symmetry and irony.
Out on the balcony, Ben bitches to Jay about Jacki talking shit on Aryn. He calls her fake, which may be true. However, Jacki is constantly being praised by the judges and photographers and everyone who comes into contact with her, so maybe a little fake ain't so bad in this industry, Mr. BOTTOM THREE.
The models arrive at Parson School of Design. They get inside and there's a nude model being sketched from all sides by drawing students. Beautiful Frankie busts out with, "I want to be nude.' I have a feeling his dream is about to come true!
Holly looks worried. Tyson peeks out from one of the canvasses and tells the models that this week is all about the body as a work of art (read: take it all off!) The models' assignment is to concentrate on the shapes their bodies are making. They are supposed to hold a pose for ten minutes so the art students can draw them.
Katy goes first. She says to the students, "y'all make me look skinny." But Katy, this is supposed to be realistic art. The teacher/principal/headmaster likes her body, and says she's good for drawing.

This recap was amazing as usual. Too funny!
I think the art students confirmed that Shannon was a she this week...but they did flash through her park rather quickly...hmmmmm...
"Out on the balcony, Ben bitches to Jay about Jacki talking shit on Aryn. He calls her fake, which may be true.

LOVED IT!!! LOL! TOO FUNNY!!
Everytime I see Ronnie and Ben together, I get uncomfortable and so nervous that Ronnie is just going to attack Ben and sex him up. I feel the sexual tension between the two.
That means that Ben's wife at home probably feels it too...poor girl.
Come on Ronnie, control yourself. I know it's hard.
I love the pic with the caption that read "This guy is affiliated with the fashion industry?!?"
He did look so ridiculous.
"If anyone knows anyone in the recording industry, PLEASE get in touch with him. I personally will advance-order ten copies of his debut album, "Highlightz and Abz""
I can't belive that is what he was saying!! LOL! He needs to go home with that shit...
I personally think America is gonna feel sorry for Jay and he'll stay around.
Katy, on the other hand, should be scared.
Casey has nothing to worry about...though he did lose cool points talking about how fake the girls were. That could bite him in the butt.

I wouldn't worry too much about Ben's wife since he's apparently a member of Ronnie's fan group on myspace. And I heard she actually really likes him too.

I'd have to agree that Shannon's gender is a non-issue at this point. Both because it would have come up in the art class and because as bitchy as these people are, someone would mention it somewhere. They talk smack about the stupidist shit, you know that they would be harping on that. Can't you just hear BF talking about how unfair it is that another guy is prettier than him? ;)

I LOVE HOLLY! leave her alone! but im pretty sure Sparkles knows shannon is a girl, snootchy bootches, its just that their joking about it. But i do think the recaps would be great without, but theyre great now too!

Oh the joy of the boys picking Shannon!!!! So helped in the mannon/shannon debate--made me guffaw!!!
Great recap, and I'm enjoying this show so much more than I was before. Maybe you don't have to be smart to model, since it's got that rep of dumb models, but for reals, Jay doesn't have a thought up in his pretty, beautifully sculpted head--it's sad, I don't know if explaining that he should be thinking about something to give his face expression would help, he is blank blank blank, and his runway sucks too--I say cut him, but I'm too lazy to vote. Hope they give Casey a chance, but he's not pretty at all in my eyes, Frankly, neither is BF, but I'm so not into him, I'd never be able to judge without predjudice!

Another great recap. This show is pure porn for the Bravo generation. I actually started feeling sorry for them- being all painted up and shaved and having to walk on "Frankenstein in drag" shoes but then two things changed my mind. First, when Aryn is being kicked off in the opening, Holly tries to soothe her by whispering in her ear "I promise you're beautiful." What? Yeah, just what you need to hear when clearly America has told you that you are not quite beautiful enough. At least not as beautiful as Holly who was spared...
Secondly, my sympathy evaporated when the "boys" were playing 'Sex And The City Support Group" and they climax with "We're like a fraternity only really, really good looking." C'mon boys- be it, don't say it! Hey, anyone know the link or URL to Ronnie's MySpace page? Love to share it with others and can't seem to find.

Bingo Blog Boy - I can't post links in the comments, but if you email sparkles.tvgasm@gmail.com, I'll send you Ronnie's myspace page.
He writes poetry in his blog, but you can't really read it because the background is a huge photo of his face - too funny!
I always appreciate the feedback, everyone! Was last night's episode awesome or what? Poor Katy.

Bingo Blog Boy - I can't post links in the comments, but if you go to myspace and search for "Ronnie Kroell," you should be able to find him.
He writes a bunch of poems in his blog, but you can't really read them because the background is a huge photo of his face - too funny!
I always appreciate the feedback, guys! Last night's episode was pretty awesome, huh? Poor Katy.

Ughhh - sorry for the double post. I didn't think the first one went through...anyway, email me if you want, or look it up; either way, Ronnie's myspace is totally worth it!

Hey Sparkles! Your recaps just keep getting better and better. I wish I could say the same for the show, which is only marginally getting better now that the guys (or at least 3 of them) are turning out to be the bitchiest bitches of all. This post is a little late, since I have already seen the next episode, but here are my thoughts: Mannon-She-annon... I like her either way! Ronnie is also sooooo adorable. I can take or leave Holly or Perry. Keep Ben around to keep Ronnie happy. I can see in a cold theoretical what people may find attractive about Casey, but my physical reaction to seeing him is... not good. Plus all the shots of his butt getting shaved and waxed... ugh. Jackie gets on my nerves, but now that she's standing up to the little Casey-Perry-Frankie clique, I like her better. And BF... let's call him BS. I want him to be gone so bad! Has anyone noticed how he has this high-pitched screechy laughter that sounds just like the Judge in Who Framed Roger Rabbit? Yeah, the maniacal-cartoon-killer-I-killed-your-brother-by-dropping-a-safe-on-his-head laugh... Let's hope Katie turns out to be MMAS's Sanjaya and keeps surviving at least until Frankie's gone.
