Even if I had Top Model potential I'd rather do just about anything than be on the show. The house seems consistently plagued with drama and every girl starts to doubt herself on network television. This week Lauren expressed again that she has confidence issues in panel. Duh. She's the most awkward girl there. She claimed "it's a huge inner struggle that I'm going to have to go through." Already with the drama.
Then Claire made a teary eyed phone call to her husband. Apparently her baby is teething and Claire cries every time she thinks about her kid. I have to ask, what kind of mother just up and leaves like that? She does! Though she says "I'd be cheating my daughter if i didn't go for my dreams. "She still has a particular fondness for discussing breast milk (as we learned in episode one), but tonight we learned her milk is starting to dry up.
Of course, what Wednesday evening would be complete without major drama with Dominique (Tranniest of them all)? This time it starts with her and Claire. Tranny set her alarm extra early and Claire raged at being woken early. Claire determined the fight was an appropriate time to call Tranny a bitch. Later she posed the most eloquent of all questions -- "Do you call your husband a bitch when you guys get in an argument?" Touche! Finally Whitney and Lauren got involved (seeing as ALL the girls hate Dominique). The fight ended with Lauren standing on a chair and screaming at Dominique. She also claimed "she's nuts, everything she says has no meaning. It's verbal diarrhea." So sophisticated, Top Model!
Tyra Mail showed up and this one read: "You ladies are sick, but I'll help you get better. Love, Tyra." Whatever could it mean? The ladies rode in the cab and discovered Tyra was driving! Once they got to their location the ran upstairs to change into their clothes. The outfits consisted of red tshirts, red spandex and dance shoes. Tyra took their horrendous walking into her own hands and decided to give them a lesson in walking and posing. At the end of the first walk she stripped off her coat to expose a dance outfit that looked more like bondage wear. Tyra faked a sprained ankle and as all the girls freaked out she explained she was teaching them a crucial posing trick -- pose with pain. "Think pain, but beauty." The girls had a pose off and that night Tyra Mail said, "I've been aching to tell you tonight's lesson was actually a challenge. Guess who posed the fiercest? Congratulations, Anya. You just won a one-on-one photo shoot with Nigil Barker!!!"
Anya's photo shoot took place in a bed because Nigil claimed that "clothes date." Don't faces and haircuts? Apparently not. In her oh so irritating, almost impossible to overlook voice, Anya expressed comfort in being naked. Apparently she's down with her body and relaxed with Nigil. Good for you girl, get a voice coach.
Then the girls had the Tranny Fight Part 2. This time Dominique was trying to sleep because she didn't feel well, but Claire, Whitney and Lauren decided to talk shit right in front of her. Claire said she didn't care that Dominique could hear here because of mutual disrespect. Come on Claire, why you gotta let me down like that? I thought you were so rad and now you're just a big jerk?
The girls departed for their photoshoot in Williamsburg, Brooklyn. Their goal ws to embody a style of music. Renowned photographer Russell James (of course I've never heard of him) shot the girls in an empty pool posing with instruments. The genres went as follows: Fatima was heavy metal, Katarzyna was emo, Lauren was pop, Claire was country, Dominique was folk, Anya was punk, Stacy-Ann was house, Aimee was R&B, and Whitney was grunge. When it came time for panel, Whitney kicked ass and received her picture first, while Claire and Aimee were the bottom two because of their unconvincing photos. Ultimately Aimee went home and Claire got to stay. The network probably insisted on keeping Claire so her and Dominique can kill each other on television. Imagine, Top Model turned Gladiators.
