Episode Report Card Potes: B | Grade It Now! YOU GRADE IT Kim Gets A Toaster
By Potes | Season 5 | Episode 2 | Aired on 09.20.2005
Ashley approaches the panel with a big smile. Tyra says that she looks happy, to which Ashley replies that she's always happy. Miss J. says that her walk was boring, but Twiggy likes it and says that you don't want everyone to be the same on the runway. Her photo gets panned all around, Tyra saying it looks like she's had some Kryptonite and is a fallen superhero.
Tyra makes fun of Nik for her bobbleheaded walk, but her photo gets raves from everyone.
Coryn is next. Miss J. says he loves that she was in a long dress in the fashion show because he loves her body, but that she didn't carry it the way she should have. On her photo, Nigel says that she's got a very masculine body and that she needs to go beyond "sports modeling." And on the forums, someone linked to unsubstantiated reports that Coryn is actually a man and...well, maybe.
On the runway, Jayla looked like she was scratching at her crabs, but Tyra liked her energy even though it was all over the place. Twiggy likes Jayla's face in her photo, but Tyra says she loves the body, but that the face lost it. That ought to clear things up.
Nigel says that Cassandra's walk was too prom queen, and adds that she looks like the gorgeous girl at school, but doesn't translate as a model. Cassandra replies that she was concentrating on keeping the dress up so that she didn't flash the audience. Nigel says that there wasn't enough flashing in the show, and everyone laughs because they are still trying to convince us that they're funny. Twiggy says, "Down, boys," and Miss J. takes mock offense. Nigel says, "There's only one boy at this table." Cassandra's photo is awesome. She tells the judges how she loved the shoot and was comfortable in the harness and felt like a real superhero. Oh, shut up, Cassandra.
Last up is Sarah. The judges laugh at her falling all over the place on the runway. Nigel tells her that she needs to have a better recovery. Twiggy really likes her photo, and Nigel says that the face is great, but that the body needs work and her legs look really short in the photo. Tyra announces that the judges will deliberate, and then one of the girls will be eliminated. Commercials.
When we return, the judges are deliberating. Nigel says that he doesn't see Cassandra when she is standing in front of him, and Tyra does a pageant Cassandra impression that's actually kind of funny. Twiggy laughs at Tyra's joke, thus continuing her role as the anti-Janice. Nigel says that Ebony's photo is one of the worst of the bunch, and Twiggy says that Ebony is beautiful but not a model. Twiggy and Miss J. think that Coryn has a great body, but Tyra thinks her muscle tone makes her look too athletic. The panel comments on how Sarah gave up on the runway, but Nigel says that her face is amazing and that they have to see it in more pictures. He also says that Nik is the silent weapon the other girls have to look out for. Tyra likes Ashley's picture, but Miss J. says Ashley thinks her "pretty gene" will get her over. The Twig thinks Ashley is missing the "special ingredient." Miss J. loves Lisa's face, and Nigel calls her a diamond in the rough. He also thinks Diane's face "has it." Kim has a complete uniqueness and androgyny, but Twiggy doesn't like her face despite the fact that just a few minutes ago she said Kim reminds her of herself. Maybe Twiggy's angle is that she's self-hating. Tyra loves Jayla's lightness and bubbly personality, but Twiggy and Miss J. were less than impressed by her runway performance. Nigel says that Nicole is very young and only has the "English rose" look. Bre looks like a horse gone wrong, according to Twiggy. Miss J. says something unintelligible about Bre smelling like cheese. My girlfriend and I sometimes reference a smell called "cheese feet," and if this is Bre's signature scent, then I feel sorry for anyone in close proximity. The Twig says that Miss J. is awful, but she likes him. Well isn't this the picture of a perfect, happy panel.
