Episode Report Card Potes: B- | Grade It Now! YOU GRADE IT Enter the Haggis
By Potes | Season 18 | Episode 2 | Aired on 03.07.2012
The judges deliberate. Mariah has a spookiness in her face, but no attitude or personality. Except the too-sexy personality. Kyle looks okay, but stiff. Azmarie is a disappointment, and needs to get what her brand is, according to Cutrone. Les-baby? Tyra thinks she's turning herself into a commercial bore, and it almost looks like her tattoo sleeve was written on with a pen. Okay, what? That makes absolutely no sense. Ashley did a great job, and managed to not be sexual even while wielding a lollipop. Catherine is quirky and not classically pretty, in a good way. Cutrone thinks her magenta hair takes her out of her natural dowdiness. Laura's floppy doll pose was brilliant, and everyone loves it. Sophie's shot is the weakest of her photo cohorts, but she pops in person. Candace's shot has nothing to do with being a baby. Tyra thinks she's really beautiful up close, but is just a pretty girl from far away. Eboni, however, has a different and interesting face. Cutrone wants Eboni to lengthen her torso, surgically. Seymone has a beautiful face, but it's not enough. Annaliese has a shining personality, but she didn't know quite what to do on Kris's lap. Shouldn't we feel good about that? Louise has a dynamite face, but there's a lack of charm, to put it mildly. Cutrone says that if Tyra Banks tells you that you look like Linda Evangelista, you should get your damn fingers out of your mouth. Seconded, obviously. Alisha is misguided in her shot, and needs to exaggerate more. Kris says that she didn't know what to do with herself whatsoever. With that, the judges have made a decision.
Thirteen beautiful young ladies stand before Tyra, but she only has twelve photos in her hands. And those photos represent the girls who are still in the running towards becoming America's Next Top Model. The first name called, with corresponding best photo, is Laura. The runner-up is Ashley, followed by Eboni, Catherine, Candace, Kyle, Sophie, Annaliese, Louise, Alisha, and Azmarie. This leaves Americans Mariah and Seymone in the bottom two. Mariah's photo was nice, but it's not enough just to be a pretty girl - you have to have an extra-special something. Then there's Seymone. She's beautiful, and had the best photo last week, but the judges are scared that that was a fluke. Plus, she downed all that haggis and grossed everyone out. But Seymone's personality, such as it is, prevails. Mariah gets the boot. Tyra appreciates Mariah's beauty, and thinks that she has a personality down in there somewhere, but the judges don't feel that when she's in front of them. What will make Mariah go to the next level of modeling is spice in the belly, and also a career as a Britney Spears impersonator. Mariah cries as she tells us that she's disappointed in herself, but also proud that she made it to the competition at all. She assures us that she does have a personality, and adds that being the first Native American supermodel is her dream. She will make it, one way or another. She's not a girl, not yet a woman, y'all.
