Re: Make Me A Supermodel (US)

Could Perry really be THAT starry-eyed (or is it s.t.u.p.i.d.) to not see through everything Amanda was (not) saying!?! I was embarassed for him ... she sure came across as a skank and he looked like a

Did anybody else groan when Holly showed her shotgun skills after winning ... At first I thought she was dreaming of some squirrel gravy ... but then I saw she was aiming the 'gun' at the judges! What the heck was that about? Bizarre.

Anyone happen to know what her fiance's career is, that he can up and follow her anywhere, anytime?

As for Ben and April ... 3 months IS a long time to be apart when they are so young (remember, he's only 22). They have both grown and changed - having different experiences and not being able to have constant contact, have just lost that connection they originally had.

He has in his eyes, and was asking April how she felt about living in a 'place like this.' Uh, Ben, reality check ... you will be living in a one room studio apartment 4 floor walkup in NYC for a pretty long time, most likely. I feel most sorry for April. She obviously loves him, and never imagined she would loose her honey when she agreed to the show. They COULD work it out, if they can be mature enough to lean on each other and grow and experience the new possibilites together.

Ronnie ... I adore him ... I'm too biased to write much. He's a good kid with a big heart and an 'old soul' with much going for him. I was astounded to read the maturity of his diary writings on Make Me A Supermodel: Your Vote Decides! - Official Bravo TV Site compared to the other models.

Interesting show ... I hope they do it again!

That would be because she WAS lying. She's done interviews with several tabs stating that she and Perry were "broken up," she was lonely and upset and Adnan was a friend and it turned into something more. And lo and behold, it was her dirty texts to Adnan that got Britney so pissed off that she threw his iPhone into the pool and called it quits with him. Currently she's playing the "OMG I got PLAYED by Adnan, O NOES!" role. It's absolutely disgusting.

Oh course, Perry doesn't know about any of this because even though the producers brought him the Enquirer to read (and to be fair, they left it ambivalent enough that it COULD have been viewed as just friends hanging out) but her recent interviews don't leave any doubt to the imagination. So either Perry is going to blow a gasket when he finds out the truth, or he already knows and they both made a mutual decision (along with Bravo) to milk this for as much publicity as possible by staging this reunion of sorts to boost their own careers (Amanda is a actress/mdel/waitress as well). I'm leaning more towards option one because she seems like a sly one.

Re: Make Me A Supermodel (US)

I wonder what to make of this post by "Jana" from the comments following Holly's final diary entry on the show's Bravotv.com website?

the next thing i have to say is that i hate that america has the wrong impression of her. im a little disappointed that she mislead everyone on national television. people, she lives with her fiance in miami, and then she tells everyone that he has never seen her totally naked? im not going to get in to bashing her and stating the facts i know. i'll just leave it at this: misleading america on national television is not the route you should have taken to get to the top. im not here to bash your character, you probably did want this really bad.i just don't think you should have stooped to lying to win. everyone has the wrong impression of holly kiser, and i hope, that in due time, america will get to see the 'real' holly..

Re: Make Me A Supermodel (US)

What, are we supposed to think "ooh, Holly UR WHORE?" For all this woman knows they might have a lot of self-control. It is possible.

The impression that I got of Holly Kiser is that she's a very nice girl and a good model who worked hard in this competition. Whether she lives with her fiance and is a virgin or not is not going to change those things. "Jana" sounds like one of those bitter crabby people who can't wait to sling mud on anyone doing better than she is.

Ben what a nasty piece of work, for the benefit of those who don't have a psychology degree which I don't you need since the signs were so obvious. Those two are soooo going to split, his coolness and lack of affection contrasted to Holly and her fiance.

Plus what the hell, he even asked the model for drink afterwards!!!

I agree. Did she stretch the truth about being virginal? I have no idea. Do I think that impacted Holly winning? Not at all. Based on the responses I've seen in other shows I watch that have a "virgin" character, it isn't terribly well received (they're often viewed as feeling superior, etc.), so I doubt that is the sole reason why she won. Is it possible that she won because she has the best shot of having a successful career (after that voice coaching) and America actually got it right for a change? Maybe it was just dumb luck.

I never voted this season because I always watched it after the voting window closed, but Holly would have had my vote. All season, I thought it would come down to Holly and Perry in the finale. I was shocked that Perry was the first one eliminated.

I wish Holly luck with getting her career started.

I agree with everyone else. Something seems off in Ben's interactions with his wife. It doesn't look good. I also hope Perry kicks Amanda's lying behind to the curb as soon as he gets back to LA and hears the real story.

Love the line "nasty piece of work", yes he is. I forgot that he asked the model for a drink. At the end he wasn't even trying to act married. It must have been very hard for his wife to watch what was happening week after week and not be able to do anything about it. If she still had any hopes that they would stay together I'm sure they went out the window after the visit. Like someone else said, he's going to be living in a studio if he moves to NY. Unless he gets on another reality show his 15 minutes of fame are over.

I think in a previous show she was goofing around in a confessional and talking about how the guys could give her a hard time, but she was going to pick them off one-by-one like squirrels. When she did that, I assumed that she meant that she'd taken the boys down and won the prize, and I thought it was hilarious.

As for Ben and April, I've dated guys before who were totally weird and uncomfortable for the first hour or so of reconnecting after a long separation but totally warmed up once they got past the awkwardness. Ben may just be one of those guys, and to have the reunion on camera after such a long absence would have amped that up. I have no idea whether they'll make it or not, but I wouldn't make any assumptions based on their reunion. (By the way, I didn't think that Ben meant the apartment when he asked could you live in a place like this. I thought he was talking about New York.)

Edited to add:

I forgot about the hitting on Jessica Stam part. Maybe I'm cutting Ben too much slack, after all.

Re: Make Me A Supermodel (US)

I usually really like Bravo reality shows. "Project Runway" and "Top Chef" are great because they pick people who actually have a talent. Sure some of the different relationships on the show make it a little more interesting but I'm more interested in how the people perform in the challenges. I never thought that the real premise of the show was to pick a supermodel. It was more of a "Big Brother" type thing. They put a bunch of young, good looking (more important, people who thought they were good looking) in a home together and then fanned the flames. The model part of it gave Bravo excuses to dress them up in sexy clothing and put them in pretty odd situations that they never would be in if not "modeling". I feel that Ronnie was told to run with the Ben thing. I don't think that in real life he would go for a straight, married, dumb, hillbilly prison guard. There were much better looking guys on the show that would have been more his type. Ben didn't make it to the end by accident (along with Ronnie). Bravo wanted them both there so we could all see Ben's marriage fall apart. Hey, it worked, I watched and I hated this show.
