The difference between making a face and that giggling/doubling over thing is that, while both attract the attention of the judges (and probably not in a positive way) the giggling draws the attention of everyone and makes the mockery or thne enjoyment of another's criticism to be quite obvious, so it is more likely to hurt more feelings, I would think. Snarky comments to a camera or even in another room, a bit less distracting and disruptive (of course all will be seen when the show airs).

As Keesha would say " I know, I KNOW!"

I even ran it back to see if he had the hat on for the photo..

I thought he WAS wearing the "head of lettuce!" LOL I mean, REALLY?!!! REALLY!!!!!!!!!!! LOL

I've come to really appreciate Leann over the weeks and hopes she wins. I've liked Korto as well, but that jacket and dress combo well ..... at least with the lines she put in, made a bit more cohesive.

Some people laugh inappropriately when they are stressed/nervous, not sure if that is Kenley's issue or not.

I like the silhouettes that Kenley uses but not always her fabric choices. I am not crazy about those prints she thinks are so fabulous!

There is something about Korto's designs that looks a little stiff through the bodice and arms to me - not sure what that is exactly, maybe the way she attaches sleeves or something - but I usually like her color sense. I did not think that jacket matched the dress at all.

That sculptural stuff that Leanne does looks cool on a size 0 model but it would never work for me.

Jerrel makes some interesting choices, but also misses the mark entirely sometimes for me. Just like Tim said on the astrological challenge, "You'll either win or crash and burn," for me just about all of his work I either love or hate.

Poor Joe. Nice guy but I don't think there was a well constructed garment that he did on his own throughout the entire competition.

My best friend laughs when she's stressed. I'll never forget the time I was holding her 1 year old, and slipped walking down some steps. I held the kid but landed on my butt (and cracked my tailbone). She stood there and laughed, while her 11 year old son yelled at her for laughing at my fall!

Costacat, a dear friend of mine had an unfortunate habit of missing her step from curb to street. It happened in NYC, New Orleans, Iowa... A few years ago we went to Lincoln Ne with my sisters to see Jerry Seinfeld. On our way to the theatre, she misstepped again and really hurt her back. She had tears in her eyes and I was laughing and could not stop! I was just as appalled at myself as my sisters were with me. I kept saying, "Are you OK? I'm sorry, I'm sorry" To this day I think I may have to spend time in a dark dank pit in hell for it. It was just that no matter where we went, she did the same thing! I could not get a grip. I felt and in fact still feel awful. To this day I can still see the whole episode. Gail in tears, my sisters trying to help her and shooting me dagger looks and my trying unsuccessfully to stop laughing. It was awful.

Having confessed this, I understand that it happens that people do laugh in inappropriate situations. However, Kenly seems to laugh in a mean spirited, how could you be so stupid sort of way versus a nervous way. Is she even aware it is inapropriate? I don't recall her apologizing.

She also just "happens" to laugh at people she has been consciously, verbally, bashing in her "confessional interviews".

But I DO know about how laughter can sort of over take a person at the most awkward times..

I don't give much credence to who's bashing whom in those "confessionals." They are asked specific questions by the producers in order to get specific responses.

And Sugar, I'm sure the tears and daggers I threw at my friend equalled those you received! :-)

The best laughing at an inappropriate time was when Mary Richards laughed at Chuckles The Clown's funeral (Mary Tyler Moore Show). That was epic!

Sugar-you nailed it! (in your last paragraph.) That is why Kenley looks so rude. She is not giggling or "ripping" on her competitors involuntarily. She shows no remorse. She repeatedly bashes them. even if she were "led" by the questioning on one or two occasions, there is no excuse for her numerous "offenses."

Hukd, that scene was hilarious! Epic is an understatement! (And how was it NOT to laugh at Mary's laughing????)

Sometimes those laughs are just impossible to control! I think falling is one of those things that gets a lot of people. I can still picture this girl running into a glass door and bouncing off of it when we were in HS and in France. We were supposed to go on a trip down the River Siennes and we had met guys, so we played sick. We saw the buses coming with our group and we all took off to run inside the dorm and she did that. Now this is the worst part. We left her there because we didn't want to get caught! We were so relieved when we could go check on her after everyone was in. I'm actually laughing right now picturing her. I'm terrible! Although she thought it was funny afterwards, too.

Man, now I'm going to have to go see if I can find a YouTube or something of that episode, since I can't remember it. Nothing worse than when one person starts and you're trying to control yourself not to start, too. It's impossible!

Remeber one of the attorney team being vaulted out of the donkey cart on Amazing Race? Hard not to laugh at that, but it must have hurt..

OK, I HAD to find it and I did! LOL It appears the audio is off a bit with the video, but it's still good. Mary Tyler Moore & Chuckles

I remember those donkeys dumping Heather and Eve flat on their faces on Amazing Race. It was hilarious, and part of the reason was that I found those girls so obnoxious. I wonder if somebody could lure Kenley into a cart pulled by those donkeys...

The "embarrassing laugh" type thing I recall from Amazing Race is when Charla kept falling over in the suit of armor. My mother and I were literally rolling on the floor laughing but felt SO GUILTY about it, one of those situations where you are sure you are going to hell, but still can't stop!

OMG, me too!!. And yeah I felt guilty, but it did help knowing that it had happened in the past and she was ok. Another prime Charla moment was whsn she was running around saying "I've been electrocuted!" That was back on their season and I was in Vegas watching with some tvchers and we were literally rolling around laughing.

Hahahaha... I laughed at Charla, too! That was too funny!! Yeah, it did help that you knew she was alright, but she was like a baby in a snowsuit and that just keels over when they try to move. At least they're all padded!!

Kenley was just acting obnoxious as far as I'm concerned. She's been getting on my last nerve lately.

just watched show. I am sure that Kenley laughing thing was total editing. I cant imagine the girl also laughing that hard about a fabric square. I bet that laugh was when they called her mini me.

I hated Korto's outfit, that jacket didnt match that dress at all, I actually liked Suede's better. His dress was adorable but judges didnt even ask to see it. I agreed Joe's was the worst.

I love Jarrel more each week and agree he had the winning look, I loved it.

Kenley looks to get hers next week.

but the best part of next week??!!!

LL!!!! yum-me!

eta I loved Leanne's dress, it was adorable. I would have had her in top 3 and Korto in bottom 3. The jacket was a bit frumpy but at least it looked like it went with the dress. Korto's dress looked like a sun dress with a winter/fall jacket.

I just read back to the comments, I am surprised that no one thought that Kenley and her clients laughing was edited. It totally looked out of place and I would bet money that they were NOT laughing at Joe. Like I said, makes no sense for the client to laugh at a judges critique esp not knowing about the inside joke from earlier.

If we have learned nothing from BB is that editing can change the whole context of an event and also that editing can make us love some and hate others.
