    You may not realize it, but your impact with your channel is so much deeper than I think is credited. I’ve seen you bring awareness to so many very serious situations throughout this series and it’s so enlightening to see you give some of these girls justice even if it’s years later. It is so incredibly refreshing. Keep doing what you’re doing!

      Seriously, it’s crazy how many inappropriate scenarios my young brain normalized. I did a rewatch before I found this channel and even then at 20 something years old, inappropriate was not a word that I associated with this show, but it is. I don’t think any of Jessica’s videos are taken out of context. These girls really were under a lot of pressure and forced into situations that were not 100% safe. Most of the time they were put into uncomfortable situations just for the sake of making them feel uncomfortable so they be prepared for “ the real world” of modeling. Sorry for the rant

    As a film major student , I have to point something out about how Catherine was directed. The director and crew are always working with actors and non-actors on set. Just the same as photographers and creative directors. And as directors, we often find it “practical” or “easy” to direct the way Mr. Jay directed Catherine: using the talent’s emotion and feelings to translate facial expressions to the image.
    “Think about something that would make you really sad.” This is the worst way to direct your actors and models because you are psychologically abusing your talent. You never know how their mental health is at. And that’s just a lazy and stupid way to get to nowhere.
    Never use your talent’s emotions as working tools. Even professional actors and actresses have problems with that method.

      Have you heard about Stanislavsky method?
      And how you make a person to show a particular emotion if they dont know their face and how to do it during the shoot? You say go practice, call me when you learn it? So all production team gotta wait till you learn how to show emotion? To show emotion you need to feel it, showing emotion without feeling the emotion comes with experience

      @Ryan that too. Watching this show as an adult, i didn't realize how horrible and manipulative the judges, Tyra and the J's were. Like I watched a RUclipsr (believe her name is Luxoria or something similar) and she reacted to a makeover. During the judging a girl got extremely sick and Tyra said to the camera if she doesn't come to the judging, she is cutting her. The girl comes despite being sick and looking horrible. Well Tyra goes on to tell the girl that she needs to take care of herself and not push herself. Pretty much saying if you're sick, you got the choice to stay home.
      But she just told the camera that she needs to come despite being sick, or she'll be cut. 🤦‍♀️

    Remember, if Jay actually does the job he's titled with, he is most likely developing these concepts for shoots with Tyra, the clients, and production. If the concept isn't clear, it's largely his failure in executing the creative vision. I agree that this shoot flopped because of him. It wasn't the models' fault the images were generally trash.

    • @chamari1998

      To give him credit, Jay definitely didn't develop this photoshoot. He was only officially the creative director for the first nine seasons. Him and Tyra had a huge falling out before the ninth season, and they basically demoted him. They might have kept his title, I'm not sure, but he was basically shut out from production in that way, or, at least, that's what he said. This was also his last cycle, so he was definitely phoning it in, which was obvious to me here.

    Honestly, I have a lot of negative things to say about the way the contestants on this show are treated, but specifically, regarding silkworms, they're actually adorable and not disgusting at all.
    When I was a child, every winter, my mom used to bring them home, we put them in a shoebox, fed them leaves, and watched them spin their chrysalis and become butterflies. They're not slimy or gross at all. Their skin is actually dry, soft and smooth; it has a pleasant texture, and I've had them crawling over me numerous times. And no, I don't come from a third-world country. My mom just thought that it would be a good way for me and my brother to have a pet, and also learn to respect all creatures of nature - big and small. The silkworms are not like maggots or anything, they're not pests, and they are actually harmless. Maybe because I grew up raising them, I actually think they're very cute.
    And actually, when I visited a silk factory in Thailand a few years ago and saw that the Thai cook them in hot water to kill the worms and take the silk chrysalis, it made me feel really upset. I swear to God, I'm not some weirdo. I just had such a lovely experience raising them when I was a kid that I can't take it when I see them killed for silk.

    Funny story about this, apparently they were all super sleep deprived and did this shoot immediately after flying into China.

  • @BlackParade727

    I think Jay's intention was he expected everyone to be scared of the worms, so he was gonna tell them to "channel that emotion" into the pose. But then no one got emotional really so he was like well damn, I'm just gonna stick with the same advice I guess. The judges also expected that, so the challenge was supposed to be "selling the dress" while being scared hence why all their comments were anti-emotion and all about selling. But since the idea really didn't pan out like they wanted since everyone reached normally, all the advice and critique feels disjointed

    The only connection I can think of between the silk worms and being sad about the situation is because the silk worms are going to die once they've been used. Usually the worms in their cocoons are thrown into boiling water, which softens the sticky cocoon so that it can be unwound from the worm. Obviously this is going to kill the worm. :(
