The inclusion of Tatiana is just -- ratings I guess. And I was surprised they picked the first guy that sang Tuesday night.

I don't get either of these. But, then again, I started watching with the 36 so they may have done something great during Hollywood Week that I'm not aware of. But I would have picked Delilah guy over Von.

I don't particularly care for Jasmine, myself. But, hey, I trust the judges to know what's good for AI. ;P

I saw a bit of MMAS last night, and

Am I the only one who thought maybe he was protesting a wee bit too much?

Maybe, but it can also be that he's 18 and from the midwest.

Because books.

That's sort of what I thought, too. YOUNG. And not incredibly bright.

Anyone watch Make Me a Supermodel? It's all different! But I love having Jenny Shimizu as a judge. Her comment about Ken's ass was priceless. And Cory's, "I have the body of a Teletubby!"

Yes!! Loved. And soooo excited about Jenny Shimizu! :) (Made it my facebook status last night! Love her!)

Was not impressed by really any of the boys' walks though--I felt like most of them were slouchy. WTF? Stand up straight, boys! Shoulders back! And Ken, definitely--over muscled, he walked like a gunslinger, like he couldn't get his arms to his sides. WTF? And I do love Clark Kent, he's adorable, and looked like something out of an Austen novel on the runway. Also LOOOOVE Caribbean Ballet Boy. YUM. Am less thrilled by the girls.

As for ANTM...am not feeling anyone in particular yet, other than being freaked out by CrazyBugEyes and her bloody nose obsession. Get her AWAY from me. Yeesh.

Ha, I think Tatiana screwed herself out of moving on. Don't sing the same song three times, dummy!

Holy Fuck! Did that come out of left field or what??

Thrive to spite them

Yeah I think it was singing the same song and talking back to the judges. I think the judges got a good look at what a competetion with her in it would be.

That was totally out of left field. They must have really liked something about him to do that.

Actually the top 3 I wasn't surprised about, but that was left field.

Because books.

I'm happy with the wild *four*, although I think Megan is really not as good as they want her to be (and as I wanted her to be, when I saw her during auditions). But man, Simon *clearly* wants her there.

And thank god Tatiana is gone. She can sing, no doubt, but it would have been the Tatiana show every week. Just tonight, she did everything possible to grab more attention, stay on stage longer. And good on Paula for calling her out on her sudden accent. Where the hell did that come from?

I like Matt so much. And Jasmine, too.
