Im not rooting for anyone other than alamella. Not only cause I thought she was the best one anyways from the group since the start, but also cause im absolutely disgusted by the other girls. The sad thing is, the reality probably will end up being that she wont last to win it, cause she doesnt seem like shes stepping it up enough, but hopefully she does.

Every girl thats left, has bullied her. ANTM just kicked off the last neutral one in my opinion, or maybe alex didnt do much bullying also, I dont know. But, part of watching these shows is not so much about finding the most gorgeous model possible. for that, you go to the real fashion models etc. to me its more about watching their learning process and just whatever else a reality show gives you in terms of entertainment, i guess. Finding a good model at the end is extremely important also of course, and they did that flawlessly all past seasons. But i really cant stand it, if someone i dislike, ends up winning. the fact that the girls that are left are bullies of alamella, would not go well with me, if any of them won.

I can almost foresee whats going to happen next. We're going to hear [rather fake] apologies from some of the girls to alamela, saying its the worst mistake in their life as if they cared so much. They're going to portray themselves as if they've just been born a new person. But honestly, they've already showed their true color to me, so no amount of BS will change what they really are.

Who really thinks this is good tv anyways? I mean, I get that some level of bitchyness makes 'good tv', but only to a degree. On quite the contrary though, in such an extreme case of bullying here and picking on the weak as this season has showed, it actually makes me digusted watching somebody get victimized like that. This is absolutely not 'good tv'. I mean, I dont walk away from the show having felt entertained. I feel angry and sorry at the same time, and these emotions certainly dont make me enjoy the show. Plus, it totally gives ANTM a bad rep. I mean they were mean to gemma in season 1, but it wasnt like she was victimized and defensless. Plus, gemma was a lot older too, and she won, so those other girls can go cry a river.

To be perfectly honest though, demelza does seem to be doing the best, which means she will probably stick around till the end. If she wasnt such a b*tch I would have rooted for her, but still after alamela though.

So here's a snippet of next week:

This week the models have to learn how to sell brands! The girls try and sell the Ford Fiesta Vetec, dressed in their favourite designer clothing; Leiden excels, but three girls are called "Three Bored Broads, lying on a Ford" by one of the judges. (looks to be Sam, Becca, and Alyce...Charlotte says "I don't want to see your personal Fiesta honey") The models also shoot a commercial for a controversial campaign.

The other groups are Jamie, Alamela, and Caris; and Leiden, Samantha, and Demelza. Alyce is called unbelievable and Leiden gets called out at panel on her attitude.

I just saw the episode though and wow. I lost most all respect for Demelza. I liked her as a model, she delivers, but her attitude sucks. Just like Pink Positive last season, but only worse. Ugh. I think the girls are just jealous of Alamela, between her look and everything. I am so sad that Belinda left, but pretty much her two favourites are mine.

*highlight for spoiler*If the final three that was mentioned earlier ends up being true, the only one I can root for is Alex. Demelza just screams Steph Hart but with a worse attitude, and Sam? Do. Not. Want. It seems that Alamela probably won't last as long, but I could see Jamie going before her (Gold Coast metermaid).
 
Alyce is critiqued for not being believable or credible. Leiden being called out for a bad attitude could as well be an edit trick.
There's a preview on the official site.:)
 
^ Lol! Good! When I read that " Alyce is called unbelievable" I thought it meant in a good way, like, " God, that's unbelievable!"
Lol! Happy it's in the bad way though...
 
Teddy,
ia with what you said. This season seems to be more about drama than actual modeling. I like alamela and hope she goes far. I wasn't too sure about her at first and thought she was kinda weird, but that's what I ended up liking about her.
 
Yeah I liked how the judges just tore into the mean girls...using Alice as the example. It's a lot more drama but this week was a really good one: send the girls out on their own, do a real shoot, etc.
 
Even if AusNTM is having more " drama" it still has much less than ANTM and a lot of the other ones.

AusNTM treats the girls in a much more realistic way. They're instruments for the photographer and every time they get something wrong they're costing money!
You really get that vibe of reality in AusNTM and I don't get that with a lot of the other shows.
 
Oh with that Alex Perry just hit the nail on the head last night-saying that Becca "wasted him $475" and bringing in the guarantee because the lookbook shoot would cost about $60 grand.
 
Exactly, and when has that ever happened on ANTM??

The guarantee was a great idea imo. It really showed that if you can't do what the photographer says it's really NOT the end of the world for him unless you're Gemma Ward or something.
Even the top models today can be easily replaced in the modeling industry, as we see everyday with top girls loosing contracts due to personal behavior etc.

It's because of stuff like the Alex Perry shoot that I really love AusNTM.
Also, notice how none of the girls complained a single bit on his shoot?? Lol! They got a real taste of reality there I think.
 
yeah. i know of some spoilers already of whos actually in the final and even who wins.

all im saying is, if alamella indeed gets kicked out in the future, im not watching the show. which is sad, because i loved this show all past 3 seasons.

btw, come to think of it, i think the judges and producers reacted horribly. sure they scolded them, but wow come on, they did nothing. are they not surposed to act as the contestant's guardian when going on their show? wow, what a good job they did. It sure took them quite a while and an event that crossed the line in order for them to react, only to merely tell them off a little bit. Also, Do they honestly think having some mean girl b*tch win the title of australia's next top model, is going to represent that franchise well? absolutely not. its become quite a news over in australia due to the bullying going on tv. plus, all of the girls, with probably the exception of alex, has bullied her, so in my view they are all undeserving.

I was appalled with the girls' behaviour towards Alamela this week, totally uncalled for and praying on the one seen as the 'weakest'. I glad they got a kick in the *** at panel for it.

It's such a shame, because Demelza, Samantha and Rebecca all have great model potential but their attitudes stink :(
 
well i dont think the judges and producers reacted properly though, come to really think of it. They let alamella suffer long enough before just 'telling the mean girls off'. At their age, they would have been suspended from school for their actions. Verbal abuse is bad enough but they realy crossed the line when they started getting physical with the bullying, such as the waterbaloon & pouring water. I felt so bad for her.

demelza i can see having some potential cause shes tall and from afar she looks ok. up close, she doesnt look that special at all. samantha, rebecca, alyce, I dont see any potential at all. maybe in the local sears catalog. Ill use the judge's adjective, that theyre just 'gf cute'. and alex perry is right on the money, they're not even that pretty.
 
Oh I can't stand the 'Bitcheteers!' They are so small minded and act in the most ridiculous manner! Argh! Too bad because I think Bec's stunning..

Anything to put Demelza & Co. in a bad light is fine by me...but Belinda did make some valid points. If anything, it just gave me more respect for her.
 
oh? well i saw a video, of the ex-contestants saying who wins.

yea, if its live like it was last time, and assuming these shows arnt setup, then yea i dont know. i dont take it for granted, but it seems like an ok source.
