MAKE ME A SUPERMODEL ROUND UP:
EARTH WIND AND FIERCE
There are only four contestants left in the running on Make Me a Supermodel. I'm still sore about Casey leaving, but decided to continue watching anyway. *sigh.*
Shannon was voted off. It's unfortunate for Shannon as it was her first time "up for the vote" and Ronnie's fourth. I think a big reason she was booted and Ronnie wasn't is because the gay community is tuned in and probably voting for Ronnie. I also think this presents a somewhat unfair advantage for him. Having said that, I think Ronnie is a better model than Shannon and I think he's worked really hard to defy the preppy image he naturally exudes. I also think he will have earned it if takes the whole thing next week.
This week the remaining contenders had to get naked and arty-wild with celebrity photographer, Matthew Rolston. Each model represented one of the elements. Holly was fire, Perry was water, Ronnie was earth, and Ben was air.
Ben really stepped it up this week and I thought his photos were pretty amazing. Perry was also a top performer - naked and tucking his privates, crunching a piece of ice, and wearing a really bad goth wig. The results were disturbing and stunning.
Ronnie looked fabulous and sexy as a sort of wood nymph creature. Holly's photo was also really cool, ending up looking as if here head were on fire. I love Holly's look and think she's gorgeous, but I believe she lacks the personality and maturity needed to be a supermodel.
Speaking of supermodels, bad ass diva, Naomi Campbell, visited the contestants and left them all, especially Perry, with unhinged jaws. She and Tyson played up their camaraderie for the cameras and got all smoochy
.
Later, the fierce and fabulous fashion elf himself, CHRISTIAN Siriano, winner of Project Runway, coached the models on walking. AND he made an incredible dress for Holly. I have to say, when Christian presented her with the dress, she seemed unsurprisingly sort of "uh huh." Hey Holly, where's the fire you had coming out of your head on the photo shoot? I know I would be so excited that my head would have burst into flames if Christian Siriano had made a dress specifically for me.
Now it's up to America to decide who will be a supermodel. I honestly don't have a favorite. They're all really good, but I don't find any of them really overwhelming. I guess I'm voting for Ronnie, but if Casey were still in the running, I'd be jumping up and down for him like a slutty cheerleader.

FASHION TELEVISION ROUND UP
I'm not going to spend a lot of time writing about all the TV I missed while I was away, including the Academy Awards. I'll just say a few things that stood out after watching all the hours of shows I missed (Thanks DVR!!).
MAKE ME A SUPERMODEL: OH MY GOTH!
I can't believe Casey was voted off. NOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! He was my sweet, mysterious lamb with the nose that wouldn't quit. Where does one get such a perfectly darling nozzle? It was such a mistake to vote him off. I know he was a little unsure of himself, but he was stunning. Ben should have gone. He didn't even want to show the clothes at Bloomingdales because he didn't want to be a salesman. Duhhhh, being a model is all about selling clothes. You can't just walk away from a job and still be expected to be booked for a future gig. Arghhhh!
Okay, now that I've gotten that out of the way, I loved the goth fashion shoot in New Orleans!! It appealed the the goth girl still sulking around inside of me. How hilariously apropos for New Orleans. And how funny was it when they first walked out all dolled up in ghoulish gear with rippin' goth guitars in the background. They just needed Anne Rice there. It was very reminiscent of the fashion shoots my friends and I used to stage for my high school photography classes.
And the whole Perry girlfriend does Britney's boyfriend was interesting. I think he was a wee bit too proud about the whole thing. Whoops. Here's Britney's name, Perry. You keep dropping it on the floor.
MUTHAFU*&N MODEL


- The girls got their make-overs and I think they all look amazing except for bitchy Allison who just looked weird with red hair. And she's gone anyway because she didn't know how to say thank you. So thank you, goodbye.
- Big scandal when cute little Kimberly decided she wanted to walk away from the competition. She didn't want to promote expensive clothing. Uhh, yeah, wrong business to be in.
- Amis was sent packing after not being able to pull it off in the meat bikini she had to sport. I still think she's Lisa from Cycle 5. .
- Anya still looks washed out and seems to blend in to the walls.
- Fatima is still a bitch, but she looks fabulous with her new weave.
- Claire is effortlessly amazing and I think she has a very good shot with walking away as Cycle 10's winner.
- I'm still routing for Lauren. She looks gorgeous with her new hair. The girl just needs to realize what a sexy beast she is and also to stand up straight!

PROJECT RUNWAY: WHO'S THE FIERCEST OF THEM ALL?
One word sums it up:
YAYYYYYYYYY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
