Bravo's Make Me a Supermodel

[ChrissyM]

^^i was going to come in here and post about that actually!

i thought that her refusal to wear a thong was ridiculously lame..
i think it was the idea more than anything that freaked her out..

she should be comfortable showing that part of her body..
it's not like they asked her to go down the runway topless or bottomless..

What do these two Tys have in common?

Well, both are black(though Tyson is 1/4 Chinese,) both have gorgeous skin, had incredible careers, are supermodels in their own right, and…have their own shows.

But can one of the Tys trump the other? Tyson’s new show Make Me A Supermodel yes, is kind of a knock-off of Tyra Banks’ America’s Next Top Model, though he dares not admit it. The show is trying to find the next top model, but unlike Tyra’s show, America gets to vote on who they’d like to see. If this isn’t a gimmick, I don’t know what is…oh, maybe models like Saleisha winning a contract with CoverGirl and a modeling contract?

Nevertheless, Tyson was actually getting worked up when talking with pagesix.com about the comparison of the two.
“Tyra? Are you joking? I’m the only male supermodel there is, the only one who can make a supermodel. Do you think Tyra can just call up Naomi Campbell and ask her to teach these kids how to walk the runway? Please! You know Tyra and Naomi aren’t cool like that right? And we’re in New York, Tyra’s in L.A. Nothing’s going on in L.A. [My models] will go on go-sees, be doing what it takes where the action is, in New York. Please!”

I know holly in real life (well more her sister)...and she has the most beautiful face in person

 

[ChrissyM]

is holly the one with the really short edgy haircut?
i think she is so quirky and cute...
and i actually like that haircut on her..
i think she's beautiful

 

[kezme44]

^ yes

 

[ChrissyM]

thanks for confirming kezme..

i'm sure after i see another episode or two i'll be better with all the names

 

[kezme44]

no problem
it's either going to be shannon or holly

Am i the only one who thought that "throwing away something from your past" was stupid? I must say though, the prize on this show is better than ANTM because a spread in GQ is great, but a spread in Seventeen is ehh.

 

[camisado]

Is the spread in GQ going to happen if a girl wins? Or will there be a girl and a guy winner? I don't think I heard them specify yet...

yeah i thought that part was really dumb actually...

i don't think you should have to give up a part of yourself (or your favorite/best clothes) in order to show your dedication and pursue a different career etc..
very weird..

i would have thrown in a pair of mittens or something
or my underwear..

i think the GQ thing would happen either way..
there is only 1 winner..

New York Models is a very good agency, and a spread in GQ is excellent. The people on the show look like they can actually pass as models. Its good so far.

Ronnie and the other guy seem to have a little thing going on

and so much for them saying hair is in, they just got waxed

 

[Candice89102]

^ I believe the prison guard guy is straight, because he said something about "a gay guy liking me..."

I'm really glad that Aryn got a good review this week. She's definitely my favorite so far. And I hate that that one girl was criticizing her personality! Just because she's reserved and not super-bubbly means that she has no confidence? Ugh!
Anyways, I also really like Stephanie and Frankie

 

[xmodel citizen]

^ Ben the prison guard is indeed straight and he's married. The judges said something like "What will your wife think of this"

I personally voted for Dominic. I think they're too hard on him.

 

[ChrissyM]

i think dominic is cute but he is still awfully stiff...
he looked a bit like a clumsy robot on the runway..
very jerky and just unnatural..

i hope he makes it to next week because I hope he'll improve..
i think sarah should be voted out..
i just don't really see a supermodel (or anything special really) in her when it comes to this competition..

 

[Ma†t]

yea, Sarah is boring. I really liked the one girl they showed in the auditions that wasnt comfortable with her partner. I mean i liked her look.
I also thinks theres not too much diversity with any of these models

 

[Inaya]

^ Totally agree. Sarah is awful as a model... it's just not there.

I haven't seen tonight's yet... I hope to catch the re-run tonight.

also I am not sure about Perry as a model but I think he is hot

 

[xmodel citizen]

I thought Sarah WAS voted out?

Are you guys referring to Katie, the girl who just got red hair and is up for a vote this week?

 

[Ma†t]

o thats her name? thats how forgettable she is

 

[ChrissyM]

yes sorry!
my mistake..

obviously i can't even remember her name
