The makeover makes Ebony look more like Jaslene than she already did.

Twiggy IMO is just normally a biotch. I was sad to see Victoria go. I thought she deserved to stay more than a couple of the others.

I think Saleisha's hair would look better if they'd shorten the bangs and open up her face more. The judges were complaining about losing her eyes... well, hello, her hair practically covers 'em. Open up her face more and I think she'll look better! :-)

I agree, Chili. Funny, Janice might have been classified more as a "biotch" than Twiggy, but Twiggy grates on me more.

Anyone notice that Nigel is more involved in the show now. Other than being a photographer, I never remember him as leading one of the challenges. It kind of goes along with his 'fashion' commentary at the Emmys. I think he may be trying to branch out a bit.

His wife was beautiful. She's a lucky girl.

I thought his wife was gorgeous too. I'm not sure how lucky she is though. I've read interviews from past models about how flirtatious Nigel is with them & how the way he watches & looks at them is like a piece of meat. Doesn't sound like the most monogamous man.

I thought that Nigel and his wife did a past shoot like this one before?

There is an article about Heather in this week's people magazine. It really doesn't say anything new or show new pictures of her. She is not allowed to do press until after the show. But, it highlights that the show has someone with Asperger's on there. I was really proud to see it in there. I can't wait to take it to my kiddos on Monday.

Sunshyne, you mentioned that there was a girl on a past show who was taking a bunch of pills but didn't say anything until someone asked - was that Mercedes? Cycle 2 is the only season I missed and it turns out they had a contestant with Lupus, which was her. ack... That was before I was diagnosed, but still, I would loved to have seen it.

This is exactly why I wish people would be more forthcoming and educate people about stuff - apparently she didn't talk about it much on the show but went on to become a spokesperson for lupus, but I would have loved to know that she DID talk about it and explain it and what she struggles with on the show, educating the girls along with all the viewers.

I can't speak for Nigel, but as a Photographer I will say that the only way to get good pictures of people is by looking at them. As long as a model (especially a model) is comfortable with herself and the business and the people act professionally it shouldn't matter. For example, I like to see how the light looks in the person's eyes. LOL - It doesn't mean I want a romance. You also try to provoke a certain reaction from people. It's all part of the business.

(Of course, like any business that involves people, there are some sleezy photographers out there unfortunately)

Unfortunately, I got the impression from some of the models interviews that Nigel falls more on the sleezy side, their point was that it wasn't professional & made them uncomfortable. Also, April from one of the much earlier cycles said, along with many others from that cycle agreed & dmitted, that she & Nigel had a serious flirtatious relationship that was beyond the norm of regular flirtation. I believe that was also the same cycle they had Nigel's wife on the show before when all the models came over to Nigel & his wife's home.

And it was also said that it wasn't during photo shoots that'd he'd look at them like that, but at panel & other times when it just didn't seem appropriate. No one mentioned that it was during a photo shoot.

April had a humongous thing for Nigel, she pretty much admitted it on the show during her season. She said something about how her seeming nervous in front of the panel was really sexual tension between her and Nigel or some such thing.

Wow - I had no clue. I just thought Nigel was good looking, not someone who flirted with all the girls.

nigel was crazy about Ann as well. His eyes would be rolling over her in a "undressing her" kind of manner. Ann...Eva's friend the season that Eva won.

nigel seems to pick one girl each season to gush compliments over.

and......POO! I missed half the show weds and forgot to watch tonight.....darn~

I don't like Saleisha's, Bianca's, Sara's or Jena's hair. But Jena is now standing out cuz I never noticed her before lol. I would've killed the person who cut Bianca's hair like that if it was me.

It does make her cheekbones more prominent but that cut is just way too short for me.

That is what I like about Bianca now, her face just stands out.
I would die if my hair was cut off that short, though!!!

From what I understand they had no choice but to cut her hair that short due to all the damage she had inflicted on her hair. When they tried to do anything it was breaking off in big clumps.

Yeah, there was no way they could restore her hair. It was so damaged that, at that point, the best bet was to cut it all off. What I didn't like though was her blonde wig. Really didn't do anything for her, IMO, and actually kinda made her look a bit trashy.

I watched it again last night. I hope that they keep the wig off of Bianca. If this goes for a few weeks, her hair should grow a little bit.

i dont believe for a minute that Bianca's hair needed to be shaved.

Just a few moments earlier I heard one of the hair Stylists making comments that no one is crying, Where is the drama?! he asks.

Then next thing you know, Bianca's makeover completely is changed.

I think that she looks more sophisticated but her ears stick out and her head is not round enough to make the style look good from ALL angles.

Tootie-cut cracked me up. It looks horrible on saliesha. She has very heavy lidded (top and bottom) eyes and a pug nose (quite short- I am trying to describe what I see/ no offence intended)...there is no way I would call her face heartshaped. I am completely bewildered why they did that to her.

The tall Blonde with the bangs also looks horrible. Those long bangs accent her thick large nose.

I dont know. Maybe I am just too critical but most of these girls have been ruined IMHO.

Jenah looks awful and washed out with her bleach blonde hair.

Ebony looked gorgeous in that Bird OF Paradise shoot. I really wish she could somehow quit chewing her lip!!

I agree, I got the impression also that it really wasn't necessary to shave Bianca's hair off like that. I don't know why they did it, but I definitely don't believe they had to take that route. I'm sure there were other options. If she was going to just wear wigs then why shave her head at all, just trim & condition it or whatever is needed to help get it healthy, since all she's going to do is wear wigs. Wearing a wig doesn't require one's head to be shaved. Yes, she now has 2 looks, but it wasn't necessary.

Jay didn't even look nor sound believable when he was telling Bianca it had to be done.

I thought Ebony took a really beautiful photo too. But when they did the close up it looked like she had the beginnings of a sneer on her face (you know the Billy Idol lip thing). I was surprised the judges didn't mention it.

Yeah, I'm not getting the hair thing, hated what they did to Jenah and Saleisha. ick!

I think Bianca will start to really like what they did (I don't believe they needed to cut it all off...I call BS) I think she looks great!

Really liked Saras hair and glad she won the covergirl competion thing.
