America's Next Top Models Cycle 15 - 16

[Zann]

i would just like to state that Andre Leon Talley stole what I said about Molly's picture

 

[sidda]

This was kind of a dull episode but I'm glad Kasia went home. I feel for her but I never understood why she was in the competition. With her experience and whatnot she should have been able to wipe the floor with the other girls but imo she never did.

I've said it before but I do not like Molly's personality. I don't like the way she carries herself, I don't like the way she looks at panel, her posture, etc, Molly and I would not be friends but I LOVE watching her work. She looked like an editorial model on that camel. I find her contrast with Brittani funny because I generally like Brittani, she's energetic, makes for good gifs, and she doesn't take awful pictures but she just tries so hard and you can tell. I didn't really like her picture last week and this one sort of fell into the same category. I just don't like the way she poses with material, it's very, "Hey! Watch me model! I'm modeling things!" where as Molly just makes it look effortless.

I actually liked Hannah's picture more than Brittani's this week and I feel bad for that once again she's in the middle but I don't really want her to win anyway. I find nothing about Alexandria appealing. Someone needs to burn that grey hat.

Franca Sozzani was so not impressed. Based on her reaction if anyone but Molly wins I'll be shocked.

 

[Andrea.RL]

guys, i know i just spent the last two days talking about how i don't like Alexandria, but i am in love with this shot. you say she's just standing there, but think about it... she is standing on a camel. she looks incredible!

i like Hannah's shot too, but her leg looks amputated and her hand is behind her head so it looks cut off. i think the judges are gonna say something about that.

Kasia's photo is pretty fierce, but i just don't think she's versatile. i think she has a hard time relaxing her mouth. i love the way her hands are placed. they look very delicate, but i'm not sure the judges will like it.

Molly's is beautiful, but i think her left hand is sort of awkward grabbing the blanket. i sort of wish she would have looked even more straight forward (her straight, not our view) so we saw her full profile and not the angled view. it would have looked stunning.

i have nothing to say about Brittani's, hahaha, i don't know what this picture is, but i am not a fan of it. it looks so strange to me!

I agree with you about Alexandria! I mean in general models don't pose like that, in the sense it's not interesting to have a girl just standing there (though sometimes when the scene/clothes/atmosphere and especially the girl's look is fierce then there can be some strength to the picture) anyway, but she is (just standing there) and ON a camel. It almost makes no sense and looks like a photoshopped picture. I think it's really awesome and bold in a way. (and i love her outfit! if anyone can id them... )
Brittani is posing like a model but there's no intensity in her face, I don't feel anything looking at her...
I like that Hannah is looking straight into the camera but besides that...
I like how kasia is posing, she kind of looks like a sweet princess. For me she kind of fails to be fierce...
I like Molly's picture, it's just a shame she far, it looks like they did something to her eyebrows and her face looks interesting, it would have been nice to have a clearer view of it.

 

[Zann]

sidda! I agree!

Franca was like "wtf am I doing in Morocco with Tyra friggin Banks?" She did not like Brittani. That was such a dig when she said that the stylist and editor made Brittani's photo. She loves Molly. I don't remember what she said about Alexandria but she said Hannah lacked energy.

Poor Kasia. I really liked her. But like she said, IMG does not have a Plus Size division. She should have known she would not have won.

I agree about Molly's attitude. More and More they show her, I'm getting turned off. BUT. I love every photo she takes and Sidda is right... watching her model is so amazing. She works it. Especially this episode on that camel.

 

[purplethistle]

I actually quite liked this episode. Finally an elimination where the critique was mostly called for, guess Franca's presence made the difference.

 

[abul]

it's ridiculous how they use alexandria to create reality-tv drama
when tyra said that she was talking back/interrupting the photographer poor alex was like " i didn't say anything!!!" because she really didn't
and that crappy picture is definitely not the best shot she had

anyways, i'm really glad franca loved molly, i hope she wins

 

[carmen_kass]

After seeing Molly's photo this week and the one where she was crazy for accessories, I can see both of those pictures in Italian and American Vogue, they're friggin amazing. Her profile is genius and she seems to be the tallest of the girls, I was championing Brittani to win this (and she probably will because her attitude is better and she has the trailer park sob story) but now I want Molly to win. I can actually see her as one of the more athletic girls on the IMG board. Realistically Brittani's face is too asymmetrical for her to get work, especially if she was backstage at a show, the backstage photography would really make the asymmetries stand out.

 

[sophiee]

I don't really think Franca 'loved' any of the girls tbh. But last season i remember her liking Chelsey. Questionable taste in my opinion.

 

[Deleted member 1957]

i think the new season is going to be more of a reality show than model competition

 

[ptowngal]

I agree with what Franca said about Brittani. She thinks out of the box, but that is literally all she does to the point it becomes somewhat contrived. Like what crazy thing can I do next week? She needs to learn how to be more natural.

 

[iRyan]

The only one Franca seemed to love was Molly. And she liked Alexandria. But she didn't seem at all impressed with Brittani, Hannah, or Kasia (rightfully, so). Although I kind of expected her to like Brittani more.

Unfortunetly though I doubt Molly will win since they are giving her such a bad edit. But she'll probably go on to be the Jane of this cycle and work better than the winner. She has a short haircut now that suprisingly looks good on her (i'm normally not a fan of short haired models). She could rival Britt Maran.

Only disadvantage she has is her body is quite athletic.

 

[Tiffannie]

hooray for Molly! it's about time she got a second first call-out. she should have gotten it for the acessories one too. I hope she wins but I highly doubt it.

As for her personality, yeah sure it can be annoying but why does it have to be perfect? i actually like her grumpy personality because it makes her real and interesting.

 

[MyNameIs]

Do we know for sure whether there'll be top two or three?

 

[sidda]

it's ridiculous how they use alexandria to create reality-tv drama
when tyra said that she was talking back/interrupting the photographer poor alex was like " i didn't say anything!!!" because she really didn't

I think the problem Alexandria was encountering was that she interprets 'don't be b*tchy and controlling' as 'be overly nice and butt-kissing' which was not flying with the photographer and they just did not vibe well after that.

I really like Brittany - she is very much like Enid from the movie Ghost World.

I find next weeks photos disappointing for the final four.

 

[sidda]

Ahh, not even underwhelming, those are all really bad.
