[...] season, the photo shoots have been down right cheesy: four faces, gender-swapping, “political statements”, high school stereotypes…..can anyone tell me how these relate to fashion? I suppose they could, [...]

Alassandra- I agree! I am a 12, and if one of the plus sized models win, I’ll be angry. I’m not against them being in the competition, but designers don’t hire fat girls. This is a fair enough reason to not let them go to the end.

If one of them wins, it will be so Tyra can validate her weight gain. And it will seriously make me angry. Plus, it has been three episodes in, and Diana and Whitney suck.

I don’t why they got rid of Kathleen. She would of been great to watch this cycle. Clueless in the best way! I’m a size 14 and I don’t think there should be plus sized girls on ANTM. They’ll never be given a fair shot at winning.

[...] This week, Cycle 8 of America’s Next Top Model premiered. This introduced us to Kathleen, the entertaining girl from Brooklyn with the gigantic hair. She was entertaining because she was so completely and utterly dumb! She knew it though, and this made her delightful! I tried to find clips of her being priceless (’Tyra you’re so pretty!’ and ‘I KNOW, RIGHT?!’) because typing them doesn’t do it justice. I did, however, find a clip of her confessional the night before she got the boot. [...]

I enjoy the first hour, but to me, the show gets better when the personalities come out. The boot camp stuff and the party bugged me, but the interview stuff is great. They really should have focused more on that!

But I completely agree about the Audrey Hepburn thing. Man, there was so much good stuff there, I forgot some of it.

I miss Kathleen!

kathleen definitely shouldn’t have been eliminated. her stupidity was endlessly hilarious. best moments: the “dinner at tiffany’s” disaster and that time in judging when tyra was like “you seemed confused in this photo shoot” and she responded jovially “I KNOW RIGHT!” incredible lols.

i also agree about renee being awesome. as soon as she described herself as “catty” in the first hour, i was like oh man she’s going to be here for weeks and it’s going to be wildly entertaining.

sarah is my favourite of the bunch to look at, but yeah it was sort of a trainwreck watching her personality revealed here.

ALSO: the first hour is so not boring! it might be my favourite part of the series. it’s when you get all the crazy-ass stories (weave borrowing, sewed-on wig, mail order bride, etc.), have the most outlandish things said (burping, audrey hepburn, etc.) and get to establish early favourites and least-favourites. i love the first hour!
