still hoping October 11, 2015 Share October 11, 2015 Hi to all ,,new to this forum but not new to reality shows JMO - Lacey seemed to be the star? I like her and Nyle.... Contrary to most I think Mikey is/can be a working high fashion model.Lots of the guys Tyra picks are too muscular or too short I see Nyle like swimwear= fitness model Tyra does say male models are often accessories....Mikey looks like he could be the guy hugging a gal in a perfume ad IMHO He also has more of a clothes hanger body IMHO (I don't think he will win, Nyle or Lacey will I think) but I do think that realistically he is more of a real model than most of her Hampsters . Jerk - yeah....but realistically more likely to get hired ly in Tyra's mind does the booty touche mean success I can imagine Mame and Haddassah on runway....I see Lacey more as tv or commercial- i think she is so nice and many will want to cast her In some pics Devon is striking -great cheekbones - but so odd looking and acting lol, Hey it was good to see handsome Don doing well and looking great....I thought Tyra jinxed him with the white white hair (another of her odd ideas haha) Tyra goes mlm ---yikes 4 Link to comment

Tyra was vague about it, and it doesn't make any sense to me. Normally shopping for makeup and trying it on, being taught how to apply it and using it is entertainment enough. If anyone knows what the heck "beautytainment" is going to involve please tell me, because that concept is so strange to me. And I couldn't seem to find it anywhere in the dictionary. 1 Link to comment

poppy- October 11, 2015 Share October 11, 2015 Tyra didn't sing, she gave a 2 second photo of the singer she was lip syncing. Which, HAHAHAHA.

cryptaknight October 11, 2015 Share October 11, 2015 I think Tyra's beautytainers (that hurt to type) are hosting make-up sales parties ala Tupperware or Scentsy or those jewelry sales parties. They always have little games and give-aways and whatnot. They are also awful. I dread when one of my co-workers invites me to one, because the pressure to attend and buy is so high. As for the models, I'm team Nyle and team Lacey. They're the only ones that seem to actually be focused on modeling. I loved Mame at first, but the bullshit arguments and the lovey dovey stuff with Justin put me off. Justin should have stayed, btw, but Devon did very well in the music video. Tyra must have had an inkling that would be the case. I didn't agree with Mikey's FCO and I don't understand how Nyle scored below some of the others when he defied expectations by not only staying on beat, but using ASL to his advantage. 3 Link to comment

NutMeg October 11, 2015 Share October 11, 2015 (edited) Ok, UOs... 1) I don't like Mikey's persona but he has an amazing bone structure that translates to great pictures; plus he has attitude, which works very well too; so I love his pictures and cannot wait to see where he heads to after this (I hope his recent change of behaviour means he's geting serious about modeling, and not that he'll be out next). For me he has the most fascinating face of all the male models left, and I want to see more of his pictures. Admitedly, he's liked by Tyra, because she could have seriouslty damaged his image by giving him a short hair cut, and I love that she didn't because I like his look a lot. [i have to admit I thought his hallway piece in the video was a bit ape-like, but he rocked the door opening and he looks good in pictures. [OT: to those who see his hair as lice friency, lice DO thrive on nice, clean, shiny hair, oily makes it tough for them to hang on to). Devin had the kind of face that Mapplethorpe would have loved to photograph, guy is nothing to write home about in real life but his features really come through in pictures, probably because they're still and he has that interesting (ugly/photograph well) face.You cannot see it when he's in motion, so in his future I see either artsy/fashion pictures, or nothing. Me, as a photographer, I would love to get my camera on him or Mickey :-) Nyle has bored me since the beginning but I found him good this week. I thought the singing task was going to be his downfall, but his performance signing in the hallway was the best I've seen of him so far. Maybe he needs to be in motion for me to really like him! I love Hadassah and want her to go far. And so do TPTB because they could totally have chosen that picture where the dress was a disaster (I thought they were going to). Btw, since when is looking ladylike a problem for a model!? Mame looks good and all and had an excellent hallway perfoermance, she may well win the whole shebang but for some reason she bugs. As for Lacey , I still think her hair style is not helping her much and I find her vanilla bland. She could be a good model, but nothing more. She might win this season as so many predicted but unless she grows a lot I don't see her moving to the really lucrative contrats.

tpplay October 12, 2015 Share October 12, 2015 Has there ever been an eliminated contestant in any reality show contest who came back to win it all? I don't remember any but if anyone else can recall one let me know. Otherwise, I think it's just a waste of time. Someone was allowed back on Face Off and won the entire season. Of course, Face Off is quite a different show in that it is "no drama". I love watching a show where everyone's primary concern is the contestants' ability to do what they signed up for. 5 Link to comment

I never noticed it until the last episode. Haddasah needs to remove the implants if she wants to get on a catwalk. As for Mikey, I agree with you about his body (high fashion does not want big muscles), but his face is just too bland. There are a million and one guys walking around with that look (if you want to call it a look). Link to comment
Mattipoo October 12, 2015 Share October 12, 2015 (edited) I have no words for the awfulness of that "Bootyful" music video. I agree that Devin was kept around so he can star as the flamboyant makeup artist in the music video. And boy, did he deliver! Boyfriend busted out all the right moves in the hallway scene and looked beat with full makeup at panel. I see redemption arc and a possible (probable) win. Nice to see Don back and looking hot. Nyle can be my bartender anytime. Like many others, I am getting on the next plane to LA. :-) Miss J looked fierce in that short blond Tyra weave on the runway. Work it girl!

kingshearte October 12, 2015 Share October 12, 2015 I think that whichever model it was saying that she was excited to be able to help "empower women to buy makeup" was pretty much the greatest moment of reality TV ever. If I hadn't been trying to stay quiet because my husband was doing homework, I probably would have laughed so hard I'd fall off the couch. Much as it pains me to say it, Mikey was pretty badass in that hallway. It was perfectly suited for his brand of whatever. I still find him utterly repulsive, though, and from the looks of things, so does Hadassah. I really don't know where they were getting the idea that she was too into it from, though. That is not what kissing looks like when both participants are into it. And Mikey's comments about it after the fact? Threw up in my mouth a little. Gross. And based on that preview of next week, I may need to have a barf bag handy when I watch that one. Poor Dustin. What a sad crash and burn. I feel like the eliminated contestant thing, if you feel like you need to do it because you might have accidentally eliminated someone good, is an indication that your judging system is flawed. If I'm not mistaken, this show only started with the comeback stuff when they switched to the "scientific" scores based entirely on the current week's performance, and with no leeway — score says you go, then you go. Yes, I realize that there's plenty of manipulation of that that can and does happen, but I still feel like models have been more often eliminated because of one sucky week, where before they might have been placed in the bottom to scare them straight, so to speak, but still deliberately kept on because of the strength of their previous work. And with that kind of system, you're less likely to boot someone who really should have stayed just because they took one bad photo, and thus feel the need to bring someone back. But I may be putting too much thought into this and assuming that the judges are putting more into it than they are, too. 2 Link to comment
Mreid October 12, 2015 Share October 12, 2015 Can we seriously just end this season and declare Nyle the winner that dude is freaking awesome! Too bad his challenge score was low cause I think he would have placed higher during the elimination. Haddasah should have been eliminated over Dustin and Devin definitely should have gone home home over Justin I am still bitter about that. 1 Link to comment

PepperMonkey October 12, 2015 Share October 12, 2015 (edited) Okay, NOW I really want someone to perform Death of a Damn Salesman while applying and selling me makeup. Make this happen!! I wasn't going to watch this, but Belljar wasn't on it, so I thought I'd come back and give it a whirl. I haven't watched in a few weeks, so here's my opinion after a few weeks of sanity. Lacey has faded a bit. I still think she's beautiful, but she's not the breakout star I thought she was around the time I stopped watching. And far be it from me to criticize anyone's appearance, but as this is a MODELING competition: Lacey's legs look really short and stumpy. Nyle still brings the gorgeous, but boring. What happened to Justin? I can't believe Dustin came BACK and Justin went home. Dustin is adorable, but hello, 18 and looks 15. So not interesting to me at all. Mame is the most modelesque but last I saw of her, her personality was a deal breaker for me. Hadassah is still bland to me and I see she's more worried about Dustin than her own performance. DUSTIN!! Ha. Actually, they all did pretty well down that hallway EXCEPT for Hadassah. Tyra is still crazier than bat shit. Edited October 12, 2015 by PepperMonkey 4 Link to comment

PamelaMaeSnap October 13, 2015 Share October 13, 2015 I'm not sure why, but I got this odd vibe that Mikey may be getting some sort of "redemption" arc ... between the FCO (and he did rock the hallway like a runway), it seemed like they went out of their way to imply that he's starting to take things more seriously. He is not my type (though he might have been when I was 18), but he does photograph well and have that look that could appeal to a lot of women in ads that specialize in grunge and hair and getting naked. Admittedly, this is the first year in as long as I can remember that I have not snuck a peek (or read voraciously for that matter) any spoilers (on ANY of my reality shows ... it was sort of my Rosh Hashanah New Year's resolution!) so of course my saying this probably means he'll be cut this Friday. But it could also mean that he's in it for the long haul as we watch him transform from the skeevy sex maniac to the Great! Model! (who also likes threesomes, I guess). Moar Nyle, plez.

Being somewhat iconic doesn't guarantee a win, though, obviously. Link to comment
OakGoblinFly October 13, 2015 Share October 13, 2015 I'm glad they bounced Justin to bring Dustin back just to have Dustin crash and burn this week. Justin might have actually done a decent job and it would have saved us from hearing Mame tearily dedicate her performance to Justin. Ugh. What annoys me about the ousting of Dustin is that when you look a the actual 'video' there were tons and tons of GOOD shots of Dustin; Tyra and the powers-that-be selected the worst ones so they can give him the boot. Personally Justin never did anything for me - looks or personality wise so I don't think it was any great loss he was sent packing. Honestly, I don't think anyone in this group is particularly model-y looking, and some are not even all that attractive. Sigh, this show has fallen so far. 1 Link to comment
NutMeg October 14, 2015 Share October 14, 2015 Honestly, I don't think anyone in this group is particularly model-y looking, and some are not even all that attractive. But that's the thing, there are many very successful models that are not conventionally attractive but that just photography very well. I think if anything really still interests me on this show, it's how sometimes you get a very average looking (or worse) person who makes gorgeous pictures. And until I see it I would have hard a hard time believing it. On the other hand, some very good looking people look read bland to me on pictures. YMMV, etc. 2 Link to comment

Her name was Shandi, or Shaudi, or something along those lines (she was in the Shake 'ya Body video) and she was the first girl that was just not even remotely conventionally attractive on the show. But she took great pictures. Courtney kinda reminds me of her. Shandi had that same low self esteem because she wasn't really a "pretty girl" but when she got a little confidence she was really able to make beautiful pictures. Link to comment

We used to call anyone who attended an Executive program an alum. 6 week program for managers? Alum. 12 weeks for military? Alum. 10 weeks for city officials? Alum. Great for fundraising! So I can't really harsh on Tyra for that, Harvard does it on purpose. I bet Tyra donates like a boss, and will get a chair in Beautytainment endowed before she's done. Link to comment
AnnaMayWong October 16, 2015 Share October 16, 2015 (edited) Yes, I can see how offering 'them' such a designation would massage egos, thereby opening wallets and purses. I hope that you don't mind me asking, how do the actual Diploma Graduates feel about this practice? ~ Edited October 16, 2015 by BookElitist 1 Link to comment
RCharter October 16, 2015 Share October 16, 2015 (edited) If that actually happened, I wonder what the production budget would look like. $500 and all the free bagels Tyra can put in her purse. Catfish has to be one of their biggest show and it always looks like Max and Neve are flying coach, and sleeping in the same room at the local Best Western. Of course, the two of them sleeping in the same room may not be for budget issues.... Edited October 16, 2015 by RCharter Link to comment
