And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

What an asshole.

“Believe it or not, everybody thinks I’m this bad person [but] I’m really not. I do have heart. You caught me out there for six days with no food. I stunk and it tasted like I had bird shit in my mouth every morning when I woke up. I mean, you just don’t understand the heat that you go under and then somebody keeps pushing you, pushing you, pushing you to the limit."

Oh, well that explains it - he's only vocally homophobic (and misogynist, which the article doesn't address, but let's not forget his comment on day one that "we can't let a girl win this thing") when he's really stressed out. That makes it all okay then!

Art Crawl!!!

The new producers of PR are the folks behind The Real World.

Loved Mondo's pieces j- so happy that he won.

Could have had either Ivy or Valerie gone.

Good thing none of the other contestants are in that kind of situation or it'd be a free-for-all!

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Shannon was such a total tool.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

ITA, le n, re: the twist on PR. They always do that, but man I just want to see what fabulous things the designers could do given the full two days and no last minute twist when they are aiming for high fashion. Though I have to admit, I liked some of the RTW looks a whole lot.

Predictably, I love both Andy's and Mondo's complete packages, dislike Gretchen's high fashion (so 70s hausfrau! Maybe it looked better in person) and am meh on her RTW.

Michael C's RTW is damn similar to a dress I had in the 80s. His high fashion also seems more old-fashioned than cutting edge, but okay. Ivy's just look sloppy, which seems odd coming from her. Valerie's are okay but not at all exciting. Christopher's high fashion seemed worse, though with high fashion maybe okay is worse than bad. I don't even remember April's clothes and I'm still watching the episode.

And I loved what Andy and Mondo both did with the make up, too. This was the right challenge for those eyes.

Also, I'm gonna take a stand against the word 'advertorial'. Don't need to hear that again.

Yay Mondo!

I didn't mean to watch and post with myself, but I'm so happy for him!

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil

Christopher's high fashion seemed worse, though with high fashion maybe okay is worse than bad.

That dress (and model) desperately needed a good bra, or at least something built into it to support the bouncing boob effect. So wrong to have in a high fashion look.

"Oh no! Has falling sky liquid once again caused you the sadness?" -Starfire

Has PR always had a "twist" every week? I remember it happening occasionally, but not ever single week. It's getting annoying. I'd rather see what they can do when they can actually concentrate on their main look.
