ANTM Episode 6

Dance With Me

Benny Ninja was one of many guest appearance on this week's episode focusing on movement and the body. The Jabbawockeez and Lil Mama showed the girls how to dance to express emotions, primarily focusing on anger, joy, and sadness. The girls were then split into groups of 3 and they had to choreograph their own routine resulting in a $17,000 worth of jewelry win for Kara, Jennifer, and Rae. I enjoy the teachings of Benny Ninja but this cycle didn't focus on him as the Jabbawockeez and Lil Mama were the instructors. Also, the acting/dancing challenges are usually boring so it was not a surprise I wanted to fast forward to the photoshoot.

For the photoshoot, the girls were flown to Las Vegas and teamed up with Cirque du Soleil for an interesting photoshoot with photographer Mike Rosenthal. I really like Mike Rosenthal's photography and the photoshoots for top model with him as the photographer are weird, unique, and stunning.

The girls shot in groups of 3 and the photo of the week was awarded to the 3 girls in said photo. Jennifer lucked out, and you will see why. After that was presented, the remaining girls were called out individually.




Rae, Brittany, Jennifer - First Call-Out

Rae: Last week, I wanted her to have a photo where she didn't appear angelic, and she listened. She looks mean, in a good way, and even though there is someone infront of her, she still stands out.

Brittany: Like Rae, she has that mean look and like Tyra would say, is working the "ugly-pretty".

Jennifer: She looks boring and plain. The only reason she was not in the bottom two was because she lucked out and had two strong girls in her frame.



Nicole, Erin, Sundai

Nicole: Even though she was "the weakest one" of the group according to the judges, she was called before Sundai and Erin. You can see why.

Erin: Erin always has great photos but she never has that WOW picture which she needs to obtain in the next episodes or she will be sent home.

Sundai: As much as I like Sundai, this photo is just ok, not great. She allegedly had an amazing film but Tyra had to find a photo were Nicole looked decent.



Laura, Kara, Ashley
Photobucket

Laura: Of all the photos, Laura stands out the most. Like Tyra would usually say, she looks sexy, but not in a hoochie kind of a way. Obviously Laura also brought her lovable personality this episode. Unlike some of the past contestants that are excited to be on Top Model, Laura actually looks genuine. Her joy and excitement is believable, unlike some *ahem* Saleisha(Cycle9).

Kara: I have never liked her, but never hated her either. I was indifferent. However, I hate her now. I was already starting to dislike her since she hung out with Ashley and Lulu but this episode she was rude and said disrespectful things about my favorite Nicole. That is a HUGE no-no. With regards to her photo, she doesn't stand out or seem memorable, the end.

Ashley: Someone take those sleeping pills away from Ashley before she overdoses. Like last week, she looks bored and lacks the energy that the other girls brought to the table. Good thing the bitch is gone.
