Tyyyyyyraaa Maaaaaiiiilll!!!!

GET READY FOR TAKE-OFF


During last night's episode of ANTM, Fatima was almost booted from the competition because she didn't have a "travel document" she needed. The girls are getting ready to go abroad and she realizes this just now? The last-minute crunch at the consulate almost cost her the competition because it caused her to miss this week's photo shoot.

Meanwhile Lauren almost lost her thumb while cutting an onion. This prompted both Whitney and Tyra to seriously question Lauren's intelligence. Whitney, oh queen of snotty comments, made some bitchy remark like, "Who doesn't know how to cut an onion?" Later, Tyra gave Lauren a condescending lesson on how to hold your hand when you cut.

The girls had to work a party for 7-Up (which was stressed as being all-natural now) and schmooze it up with a bunch of industry people. Lauren proved to be quite social and even chatted up Paulina's hubby, Ric O'casick, about music. But Anya was the winner of the competition and won a cool ten grand and a shoot in the nude again - this time for 7-Up.

The girls then went on my favorite photo shoot of the season so far. They had to run to catch a plane parked on the tarmac, holding retro-looking luggage and dressed in old-school glam outfits. Anya worked it, looking like a 1940s pin-up girl. And Lauren looked stunning - all legs and gorgeous pout. Whitney was criticized for looking too much like a pageant queen and almost found herself in the bottom two.

But alas, it was Fatima and Stacey Ann who found themselves in the bottom of the barrel. Fatima was criticized for not having her shit together and missing the shoot, and Stacey Ann was told she generally wasn't cutting the mustard. The judges felt she had "plateaued" and didn't have much model mojo left in her so she was sent packing. This left Fatima and the rest packed up and boarding to Rome.
