Episode Report Card Potes: B+ | Grade It Now! YOU GRADE IT Hello Pretty
By Potes | Season 18 | Episode 8 | Aired on 04.25.2012
Laura's shot is cool and fun, but Nigel has seen it already from her. Cutrone agrees that she's a bit of a one trick pony. Georgina wishes that she'd had more humor in her face, but thinks she did a good job. Eboni's shot is good from the neck down, but Cutrone also hates her face. Cutrone also adds that she was disappointed upon seeing Eboni at the challenge not wearing ponytails. Okay, I get the 30-Never thing, but she has to wear ponytails ALL THE TIME? That's just annoying. Georgina thinks that Eboni looks sweet in her shot, but also a bit worried. Cutrone loves Sophie, but isn't so into her face in her photo. Georgina adds that Sophie was good in the fashion show, and looked like a real model. Tyra likes Sophie's photo and its hint of pissed-off-ness. Cutrone says that Annaliese's photo is like a Carnival Cruise ad, but does give her props for her performance in the runway show. Nigel likes the body shot, but still thinks that her face needs work. With that, the judges have reached a decision!
Seven beautiful girls stand before Tyra, but she only has six photos in her hands. And you know what those six photos represent. The first model called, who has the week's best photo, is Alisha! Yay! She is followed by Sophie, Catherine, Laura, and Annaliese. This leaves Eboni and Seymone in the bottom two. Both ladies stand before Tyra because the judges feel that they don't take into consideration how amazing the opportunity is to be there. That is, like, verbatim. Eboni doesn't respect the specific branding advice that the judges have given her. And for real, just look happy and smile and shit. It's not that hard! And Seymone is just stank about everything, as we know. So who stays in the competition? It's Eboni. Seymone gets booted back to Haggisville, where she can be as haggy as she wants.
Tyra says that she's not at the photo shoots or challenges, but the judges and Jay Manuel are. And they're big ole' tattlers. Tyra wants Seymone to remember that her platform is bigger than herself -- a plus-sized platform, if you will -- and that she should go forth and make ladies of all sizes feel good about themselves. I don't know how Seymone could make anyone feel good about anything. It's just not the job for her. Seymone tells us that she tried very hard, and other people should have been eliminated because they were ready to walk out. Wait, WHO? Eboni, maybe? The Brits certainly don't seem on the verge of disqualifying themselves. Ha -- and then Seymone amps up the stank by saying that no one else had any emotion at all when they were walking out, and she obviously does, and now doesn't want to talk about it anymore. She has a little meltdown and begs to leave, and then walks off camera. A fitting end to her journey, wouldn't you say?
