I don't like Amanda's makeover. She reminds me of Storm from X-Men, now!!!

Why didn't they at least make Amanda's eyebrows match her hair?

Good one monkeyboy!!!

I knew Julie was a goner as soon as she said that being a model wasn't her life ambition. Win the contest, THEN say what you want. I do think it was unwise of her to harbor that goal, when she knows Tyra is looking for someone who lives to model.

I could have sworn I was watching either season 1 or 2 with those makeovers. Crying about short hair, crying about blond hair, crying, crying. I didn't like the blond on Jennipher or Ann.

Kristi seemed the least changed and one who might have needed a big change the most. Her smile is awful, I cringe at it. Cassie didn't look too different either and I'm not seeing anything above average about her.

I liked Nicole's red hair, she seems to do well at the photo shoots. Yaya looked great, bad skin and all. Unfortunately, I don't think she can overcome the skin to win this. Norelle, I like her until she does her goofy teenager grin and shoulder thing.

I thought Kelle looked awful. I don't think she's very pretty anyway and the long hair didn't help. Amanda's hair looked so bad before that anything would have been an improvement. Strange, but it seemed to suit her. Do the judges seriously not know about her condition?

I like Amanda's look, and she can turn it on for the camera. Her hair and eyes give her an ethereal look. Wow.
Love the way Yaya looks, really stunning, but why wouldn't she pull some wispy bangs down over her forehead, at least until the skin clears up a bit.
I like Nicole's redder-than-Lucy hair. And Eva looked great also.
Julie really blew it, but I don't think she has the looks anyway. If she had really emphasized her eyes, it would have helped. Kelle looks awful, nose is too wide and her upper torso and shoulders look really masculine.
Most of the others are just OK, but none are outstanding.

I know that they wouldn't have done it but I think they should have left Eva's hair alone. At most, they should have just neatened it up in the back so that it would lie close to the neck. Eva told Tyra that she'd had really long hair before, I bet that if she'd come into the competition with that long hair they'd have ended up giving her the haircut she originally had. The new haircut isn't bad but it's nothing special. I loved the upswept look of her old cut. I don't like Amanda's new look at all. I keep thinking of that movie "The Omega Man" when I look at her now.

I think Amanda looks horrible. Her original hair was softer and much more appealing.

I think Cassie and Jennipher look too much alike.

So far, I am not wowed by any of them. Yaya strikes me the most but they would have to do some serious skin revamping for her.

Toccara needs to tone down the "hey, Im here" personality and learn when to be serious. Theres a time to be proffesional and a time to be silly.

I was surprised that there wasnt more POW to the makeovers. Amanda's whitebleached blonde hair and long weave looks out of place against the other contestants.

Some of the girl's appearance seemed to be barely changed after the makeovers. I agree with the above posters who think that Ann and Jennipher look washed out in Blonde streaks.

This season seems Filled with insecure, poor self-esteem girls. Eva, Ann, Cassie, Yaya, Kellie immediately jump into my mind.

The other thing I find confusing is that so many of the girls this season seem sort of ordinary...like the girl next door. Other seasons there were amazingly striking girls who applied.

On a final thought, I loved how they showed the Unretouched pics to us. I swear, ANY OF US here could look good with retouching!!

I agree with other's about Eva's hair. But she's pretty enough that they could have gone even shorter and she would have still looked very good. I thought Nicole's hair was a bit too red but she's another one who I think photographs really well and so it wouldn't have mattered what they did to her. I'm still liking YaYa but have now added Nicole and Eva to my list although all three will probably be considered too short in the end.

At the end, I couldn't help but think that the two judges on the far right looked like two characters straight out of an Austin Powers movie.

Sigh, and I have a thing about people who treat LIVE ANIMALS like they are stuffed teddybears or dolls.

No animals wants to be chained to a pillow and carried around for hours a day. I truly dont understand it.

Anyways, I rewatched the show here...its friday night. On upn they always show more footage. HOLY SMOKES, for some reason they are making the girls walk down a zigzag runway in the dark!!!! Of course Amanda falls right off.

Does anyone else besides me think that it is a little suspicious that a ZIGZAG runway be used? I have watched many fashion shows and NEVER have seen a runway like that. I'd say that Amanda was being set up to fail as she hadnt told the judges about her night blindness.

Of course, I am theorizing some of this but it was shown on the 'upcoming scenes' for next weeks show. Nigel's tone is positively scathing when he says that NO ONE would EVER HIRE a blind model. Next week could be interesting.

I can't believe the look they went with for Amanda!

Her skin is too pale for that color hair. Makes her look washed out IMO.
Plus I think the color itself is weird. Doesn't look real.
If anything, I think they should have done full highlights - which would have at least produced some dimension.

I loved the coloring that Eva got. really added to her hair cut.

Eva looked great, I didn't see that big a difference in the rest except for Amanda ..and she looks horrible!! Dark hair would have set off her eyes waaaay better.

I do like the redhead!!

Sunshyne, if I remember from the preview, it looked like the designers they are working with for that show is Heatherette- a very avante garde duo who have strange runway shows. That zigzag runway is nothing compared to things they've done before.

Agree, Pamy. I think that was a dark-haired girl who fell. Having a zig-zag runway is just asking for disaster. We see models falling all the time even on straight walks. To put a nearly blind model on a zig-zag is stupidity.
As for the concept of weird presentations, if the clothes can't be successful on their own merit, no amount of flash and hype is going to make a difference.

OH good. Not that someone fell, but that it wasnt neccessarily Amanda.

I always enjoy the show more when we get to see more of the clothing designers and what they see as their gimmick. Like last year, wasnt it Two Squared who were going for a look that was PERFECT with mercedes look?

Anyways, hope we have a good show next week! My mom is sight impaired with a similar condition as Amanda. They count steps...hopefully Amanda will have a chance to measure out the runway. eg. four long steps, turn rt, three shorter steps, turn left...

Was anyone else thrown off when Tyra got so ticked off at Kelle? I didn't think Kelle did a good job of expressing herself and Tyra misunderstoon and jumped down her throat. I didn't hear Kelle blaming anyone, just showing confusion that she wasn't perfect. Tyra reallys seems to dislike Kelle.

I must be in the minority, since I don't think Eva is pretty, she doesn't photograph well, and her makeover was blah.

No, you're not alone. I am not impressed with Eva. And, I too, thought her makeover was boring.

We see models falling all the time even on straight walks.

Here in Canada, there is a show called "Fashion Uncensored" which shows unedited runway shows. I was actually surprised to see just how often models do fall down on while on the catwalk. And I feel so bad for them when they do.

ROTFL You guys just reminded me of the poor Model who made the News a few weeks ago. She stepped ON the edge of her skirt and ripped it completely off!

I was surprised our local 6pm news showed the girl, wearing only a g-string, hurrying towards 'off runway'. Funny how a naked girl behind is okay but you never see male nudeness...let alone at 6pm on the news LOL
