hot tub + moet = soggy ipod

Nathalie last night had a great send-off message. She seems to be the most articulate and down to earth person of the bunch, now she’s gone. We’re left with Kimmy Gibbler (the cryer) and Brandi (the lush), Sophia Lauren (Ylena), Skater Girl (Heather – who gets TONS of face time, have you noticed that?), Sisi (who takes amazing photos, the quirkiness totally works), Tenika (I don’t have much to say about her) and finally, Alana. Enough said.

okay so now every female in canada ‘ hates’ Canada’s Next Top Model. what’s to like? the judges call everyone ‘big’, the girls are all whiny, very average looking, seemingly unintelligent and floozy. The show is based no where near what we would consider a fashion mecca of Canada… so why are we all still watching? It’s reality TV. You have your hot tub scenes, the competition, the protagonists, the loud mouths and the cryers. Every show on TV that has a “judge” has those judges telling contestants how horrible they are, how they need work and how they need to improve. Is this just different and more ‘hurtful to canada’ because the judges are critizing someone’s body instead of their singing ability? As for quality — ANTM was pretty weak when it started out, and it’s managed to streamline production quality over the last SIX seasons. This is season 1, we do not have Tyra or the big budget – sure some of the decisions and locations make you shake your head and say “I wouldn’t even take my grandma there” but I think most of us are still going to tune in next week regardless.
