I would enjoy The Face Australia so much more if it were not for the dynamic between the mentors. The interaction with Nicole has been quite painful. I would definitely re-watch the first seasons of The Face UK (phooey to Foxtel for not making this available on iTunes) and The Face US again. I have no desire to see the first season of The Face Australia on repeat.
My guess is that the stress of the break up with Vlad plus filming The Face Australia and The Face US back to back must have really affected Naomi. I also wonder if the producers requested that Naomi increase the drama for ratings.
Cheyenne took a huge risk when she sent Yaya there; Naomi could have easily chosen to eliminate the stronger girl. Had Olivia gone to the elimination room, I am pretty sure Anouska would still be in the competition.
I definitely agree with keeping Yaya over Anouska as I feel Yaya has more potential (Yaya is also taller). However, I don’t think Yaya should have been in that elimination room. Both Yaya and Olivia had problems on the final runway. Yaya, at least, refrained from open and closing her mouth like a fish.
I am curious as to how the competition will work with only two teams. Will the loosing team have to choose 2 girls to send to the elimination room? Or, as Ruth suggested, will the loosing mentor have to choose one girl to give the boot straightaway? Also, how will the final runway work with only two mentors and two teams?
How on earth were the girls supposed to get down and up those long stairs without touching their dresses? Sarah managed everything quite nicely, but her dress did not have the train that Ruth and Anouska did.
