What a disappointment! Last night was the makeover episode for the girls of Cycle 10 and no one cried(besides Fatima and she was crying because it hurt not because it was ugly). I get so excited about this particular episode and then it was a big letdown.
The night began with a makeup challenge with Cover-Girl(shock). Claire won and her face will be on the website for Cover-Girl and Wal-Mart (gotta get those advertising plugs in). Then the girls received a Tyra mail (by the way do they all have to scream it when it flashes on the screen?) about their makeovers (more screaming). Tyra decided that this year she was not going to tell the girls what makeover they were going to receive, they would find out when their new look was revealed. Maybe this was the reason for the lack of tears but it was still disappointing that no one showed that much emotion. Plus the little Tyra conscience in the corner describing what the girls would receive was annoying. The worst; probably either Marvita (a horse look, how about a glorified mullet), or Anya (the new hair makes her nose even bigger and the accent (?) worse). The best; I loved Fatima's long locks (don't like her but love the hair on her) and Claire's short blond boy do.
This week the pictures were taken on a boat with New York as the backdrop. The girls were modeling lingerie (or bras and knickers as Elle likes to say), from Elle McPherson's line of intimates and Elle was on hand to give advice. Elle seemed very personable and some of the pictures were amazing. Marvita's (even with the mullet) was very strong and so was Lauren's (surprisingly her dorkiness was cute). I laughed every time Allison mentioned how much experience she had and how good her pictures were because you just knew she was going home. The minute that girl said, "I am not going home" it was a foregone conclusion.
The judging was fairly normal with the judges critiquing everyone and everything. Too sexy, not enough expression and so on. Obviously Allison went home but I second guessed myself and thought Dominique might have a chance to leave as well. Her makeover was horrible (she looked like a soccer mom) and the outfit she wore to judging (high waisted jeans made her butt look huge) did nothing to dispel that look.
But she stayed and Tyra vowed (Tyra vowing is like a normal person just saying something) that Dominique would get the color she asked for.
A few observations: Marvita is going to blow at any moment. She was upset that the girls were elbowing her during the makeup challenge. Did anyone else notice that some of the weaves looked cheap. Some of the girl's hair looked hacked off in the back. Anya must not speak, I cannot stand her voice and I swear her accent is fake. I have no front runner. No one at this point is standing out to me. Anyone?
