That part bothers me. They didn't do it that often last season, did they?

They did do it last season. They also made a big deal about setting them up with a personal trainer. I wonder if they'll do that this season.

And I'm sorry, I hate that they're making Salome feel like she has to lose weight. She's BEAUTIFUL and curvy and NOT FAT AT ALL.

ugh I know. But it's realistic if they want to be working models, I guess.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I have nothing to add, but feel the need to affirm that I watch the models and agree with you people.

Me too!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Yeah, that's the problem. They are realistically portraying the fucked-up industry, so what can you say to that? Other than the industry is fucked up...

I wish they would say that. I'm really glad that at least she didn't go home over it! Man, that stinkface Gabriel has to go next!

Yeah, I adore Make Me a Supermodel, and was very glad CJ and her bad attitude went home. I do not like Amanda at all, either. And I adore Colin, he is SO CUTE. Hee.

I got in a whole loud discussion in the dyke bar at trivia over this the other week with a gayboy. :)

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

I saw that on Countdown earlier this week--Olbermann was making a supreme effort to not cackle when they played the line from his Slap-Chop commercial, "Let me show you my nuts."

I have to ask, did they borrow camera lenses from Elizabeth Taylor when they shot his infomercials? He looks about 20 years older in his mugshots than on TV...
