What A Big Scarf You Have!

S02E09

Jordan is . She tells us that it took her a long time to become confident with her body, but she's glad to have the chance to try out said new confidence. She puts the big, white bag on her shoulder, and a strap covers her nipple. Bill gets the shot in the first frame! He takes a few more just for kicks and also praises her for taking direction well.

Amanda is up and, of course, we have to hear more about her stupid insecurity. Nicole tells her to just relax. Bill asks her to soften her look -- she's already naked and doesn't need to try to look sexy. He says that Amanda did a good job ignoring that there were so many people in the room, however she needs to work on having a relaxed, approachable look on her face. She thanks Nicole for all of her help and blahs about how eight weeks ago, she wouldn't have been able to do this.

Branden interviews that he needs to improve this week, as he was almost in the bottom two last week. Well, he doesn't. He face is tense and his body apparently doesn't look toned enough. Odd, because he looks pretty yummy from here. It's kind of odd to see him all hot and naked, getting admonished by Bill and Tyson. This may be a new fetish genre: Nude Model Humiliation. Bill takes Tyson aside and says that the shoot is not working -- a client would call for a reshoot if this is what they got. They try again and it still doesn't go entirely well. Stripped bare with bleeding testicles and no decent shots, Branden is bummed.

Later, at the condo, Branden is a mess. He's all writing in his journal with a blue headband on, then he's crying to Mountaha and Amanda about missing his mom. Amanda interviews that it's cute and sad to see. She adds that, though this is a competition, they need to be here for each other. That's a sweet sentiment. Later, the girls (minus Amanda) are talking about the day's shoot. Mountaha says that she feels like she overcame an obstacle today. Salome is happy to have a nudie shot in her book.

The day, Nicole arrives with the photos. Her accent is so crazy. I'm seriously stunned that she's Australian and not Italian or something. Jonathan's shot is pretty awesome. It's pretty shadowy throughout, except on his brightly lit ass. Branden asks to see it a second time and Jonathan replies, "I'll get a copy for you, Branden." Gay Panic Branden does not like this, but laughs it off. Salome looks at her picture and loves it. Nicole tells her that her body looks great, but Sandhurst interviews that a lot of Salome's body was missing. I'm assuming that he thinks that Salome's body was a liability and the cropping gives her an unfair advantage. Branden's photo is and though he's a hot piece, the photo is not that special. He doesn't like it, either. Mountaha loves her photo. Her back is to the camera and really shows off the shoes. Sandhurst loves his as well. He looks good, which he acknowledges and says, "The truth is the truth." Then, he pauses and takes it back because it's too conceited. Jordan is thrilled with her photo. Amanda hates hers. I guess it's a little blah, but she's crying about it, which seems extreme.
