America’s Next Top Model 3, Episode 2: Let the Bitchiness Begin!

Yaya is up first. They show her photo and all say they love it. Tyra says the only complaint the photographer had was Yaya’s poor complexion. Whatever – Yaya is gorgeous. Ann is up next and her face is flawless but her body has no passion. They like Cassie’s shoulders, but Janice says in the photo, she looks two months pregnant.

Kelle is up and Janice says she doesn’t know what Kelle is modeling. Norelle is told she looks lost by Janice. Eva is looking a little too “music video” so Janice tells her to pick up a Vogue to see what she’s doing wrong. Jennipher is up and they say she had one of the best photos, but will probably have to cut off all that hair soon.

Amanda is up and Nole’ says he doesn’t like her body, but they love the face. Janice says she used to be able to do wondrous things with her face, but with the botox now – it’s just not possible. Julie goes next and they love her pose. They also love Nicole, but don’t get the whole pinky thing in her shots. Toccara is up and they love that she can embrace her body. Janice says that Toccara might be the one to give all the skinny bitches a run for their money. Leah goes next and they don’t seem to like anything with her photo, or what she wore to the elimination. Kristi is last and they talk about how they don’t like the hair, but the body is good.

Now it’s time to deliberate. Ann is first and they say they don’t really like her since she has no drive. They feel Toccara will break the mold this season, and that Nicole has potential. Julie doesn’t know how to give that extra something, while Amanda is a big question mark. They can’t believe she had a baby, and Janice calls her a bitch.

They feel that Jennipher isn’t “wow” but not a dog, either. I’m sure she’s glad to hear that. Nole’ calls Eva a ghetto superhero, and Nigel feels that Norelle is a mess. Kelle is definitely a couture diva, and has great skin. They aren’t sure about Cassie and feel that Leah is a bit too focused, but has a great body. They compare her to a soccer mom. Everyone likes Yaya, and Tyra says 60% of her photos were useable. Yes! Nole’ is mortified by Kristi.

The judges finally reach a decision and bring the girls in. They all line up and Tyra says she has 12 photos in her hand, and those photos belong to the girls moving on. Yaya is called first, followed by Kristi, Julie, Jennipher, Kelle, Cassie, Toccara, Nicole, Eva, Norelle, and Amanda. This leaves us with Leah and Ann, and only one will move on.

Leah is told that at her shoot, it was difficult for the photographer to capture her. Ann is told that at the shoot, she was so dead and it was obvious. She has to inspire her photographer. The girl not called must leave right away, and the girl that is called is – Ann, which means Leah is eliminated. Leah heads out in a fit of tears and gets out a good cry to the camera. She admits that she could have done better, and must not have given it her all. She won’t stop and knows she will be told “no” along the way. This is just one of those times, but she will persevere.

Next week, the girls get dramatic makeovers and everyone seems to be worried about one girl. Also, someone reveals a secret that could have one of the other girls eliminated. I can’t wait!

Now it’s time for me to categorize the girls. Each girl will be placed in a category. Either in the Like, Dislike, or Not Sure category. This is how the girls ranked this week:

Like: Yaya, Kelle, Norelle

Not Sure: Toccara, Jennipher, Nicole, Cassie, Kristi, Julie, Amanda

Dislike: Ann, Eva

And there you have it! I’ll be back next week to see what happens!
