Please tell me that the 17 magazine editor didn't just said "the creative DIRECTOR had to DIRECT her" as a *criticism of the model*
I mean, my god, if those models made people work! 😂
Megg revealed in Oliver Twixt interview that the final shot they chose was a test shot, and that is why she cried. She knew how to take good pictures because she was an Elite Model before the show.
Nothing says "we hate all of your photos" like choosing a test shot as the best
It's weird how they always say the show is for aspiring models who have 0 experience and then they have a couple girls how were models before the show. I just dont get it lol
@@kelsey2333 I think as long as they're not in a national campaign they're allowed to enter the competition.
Oh that's horrible, where can I watch/listen to this interview?!
That’s disgusting
Yeah whats extra fucked up is that Jaeda felt unfeminine after her haircut, Melrose got a lot of comments about looking 'old', Cari- Dee was told she was too 'silly' and so on. They literally used their insecurities against them. And yes, that upside down trunk always annoyed me
i feel like they ask them in the beginning certain interview questions like "what's your biggest insecurity, what's your biggest weakness" etc and then just use it against them
Did they also mock the "bearded lady" for having body hair? :')
Anchel got flack about her weight, so of course they had to give her the giant lady.
Granted, Melrose was older than the other girls, but she didn't look OLD old.
in no
This whole shoot was them picking on the models. They told Melrose she photographs old, that Jaeda was too masculine and commented on Anchal's body type all through this season...then made them an old lady, a strong woman, and a giant for this shoot. No wonder the models were uncomfortable.
Having watched this season I picked up on that right away. They magnified every criticism they threw at these girls in choosing their costumes 🤨
They also picked on a girl in another season for gaining weight or being “bigger” then the other girls or whatever, and then made her be an elephant during a safari shoot. She even went “of course you guys make me the elephant”. Truly disgusting.
@@user-vr3ko2lc2n Keenyah! They also made her Gluttony in the 7 Deadly Sins shoot
Wow good observation... I didn't pick up on that but you're 100% right, this was definitely set up
"He had to give you so much feedback, he couldn't direct." Lady, there was ONE performer on that set. Exactly who else is he directing? And, please, explain the difference between "feedback" and "direction," in this context,
I mean, isn't that his job?
It was worse, she said “ coaching.” He’s supposed to be a coach ! That’s what directors do!
@@kellyalves756 Yes!! not to mention that this is a show that claims to teach girls with promise how to become top models, so wouldn't "coaching" be expected? How else are they gonna learn?
The whole comment was just so unfair to her, god.
I kinda get it? He should have been able to spend his time dialing in the details of the photo, not trying to coax her into giving him the right Vibe.
Except it's a given by now that he's a jerk, and blames the models for his own crappy direction
@@birdyfeederz7940 That’s the thing, though. If he did spend time talking her through the details, he probably would have gotten the vibe he wanted. Throwing out only negative directions ( don’t do this or that) is like playing hot or cold and only saying cold. You have to let people know which direction to go.
I feel like they did “the elephant girl” a horrible parody of the elephant man, who was a real person. He lived with a rear condition that made him develop tumours on his nerves, bones and skin. He was paraded around at freak shows in the late 1800s until he was confined at a London hospital until he died.
His story is heartbreaking, go read it if you haven’t. His name was Joseph Merrick “The Elephant Man”.
i agree, its in poor taste
Almost everyone in a freak show was a person with some kind of health condition/unusual appearance, which makes these shows horrible. I guess it was more than a 100 years ago, so okay… but reviving the concept nowadays?? Absolutely disgusting and out of touch with the world.
He wasn't "paraded around", he chose the profession himself and was able to make a good living after he wasn't able to work a "normal" job anymore. He got his money stolen by his manager after failed trip to mainland Europe and was allowed to stay at the hospital because people came together and raised the funds
But yeah, Caridee's version is kind of a mockery of him and I really didn't even connect her to the actual Elephant Man back in the day...
@@kiiltochii1607 it's exploitative because he consented under duress. i'm sure if he had the choice to actually get treatment and live without fear of lacking basic human necessities (shelter, food, living conditions) after losing his ability to work, he wouldn't have gotten involved with the shows. it's sad he only had that choice after getting outright scammed and only then getting the support he needed
those freakshows definitely took advantage of people in difficult situations
The classic, beautiful, (and I believe award winning) biopic film that co-stars Sir Anthony Hopkins is a lovely and touching exploration into his story.
It's also the one that has the iconic "I am a human being!" moment that is referenced and also clipped often.
I highly recommend.
"She had an ugly face." If you mean she had an older face, then say that. Older does not equal ugly.
Thank you! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Age shows a life of experience, nothing ugly about that! I can see how in these professions ageing must be a real fear :(
“Today we’re gonna make you look like an old lady, so we’ll be doing your make up to make you look 30-“
Society’s worst nightmare is a woman who ages
@@wisteria230 damn I’m 32, that makeup was more like my mom who’s in her mid 50s
You missed the part where Twiggy criticizes Jaeda for being way too buff to be a model and Tyra has to explain that the abs were drawn on for her to be a strong woman 😂🙄 SO CRINGEY
Also “way too buff” to be a model??? Yeah heaven forbid we see a strong lady in media…. What year is Twiggy living in
I thought that was hilarious honestly. Like how clueless can you be twiggy
yea was gonna comment on that too, remember watching this episode back in the day and that critique was just ????
I went to school with Anchal. She is funny and so charismatic outside of being incredibly beautiful. I feel like the producers set her up to fail. Im glad she went on to do jobs that made her happy. Such a beautiful soul.
Honesrly this made my day. I always liked her and thought she got a bad edit on this damn show. She seems like such a sweet soul. I saw her Oliver Twixt interview and I'm glad she's in a good place.
She is so gorgeous. Such a beautiful jawline and bone structure
Omg she was the prettiest !!! especially with that long gorgeous hair!!!...p.s.nothing was wrong with her forehead until they made it bigger 😕
IIRC she briefly dated Jim Carrey
Oh I'd love to know her personally. She seems like such an amazing person
The sad thing about this is Megg (the model that got eliminated in this episode) was actually signed with Elite Model Management before she joined the show. ANTM did her dirty and Tyra should be ashamed of herself.
I honestly feel like Megg was set up to fail. Giving her that terrible beard and giving her a crappy set to work with. she deserved better than that 😩😣
She was. I watched an interview with Megg and she said that’s wasn’t her best photo. That was like a test shot.
In her interview with Oliver Twixt she said that they definitely intentionally chose the worst photo from her session so they could boot her off!
Mr Jay did say in his Jay Chats that production had a list of eliminated girls in order. ANTM was an reality tv show and the story line had to make sense
They clearly wanted her out and tried to make her lose her confidence to be hink she's not Good enough.
I think she could have worked it.
I'm glad you noticed the elephant trunk is upside down. I'll be honest, I never noticed until Carrie Dee mentioned it and Oliver's interview. Now I can't unsee it.
Lol~~%
I remember when this episode aired, always thinking it just looked majorly off, but I could never pinpoint why. All these years later, I finally know!
Same girl. All those times I rewatced it I never noticed.
It's like Mr. Jay knew this wasn't going to be a professional portfolio portrait so was just checked all the way out
He would have to be occasionally checked in in order to check out lol
the sad part with mel rose is that they spent the whole season complaining how she’s older and that she looks too old for modeling and then they did this to her!! on top of that, she got sent home because of this concern!!!! even tho they admitted she performed well almost every shoot and won so many challenges
Literally then they gave her the Donald trump character when they had the iconic couples photo shoot
I really thought Melrose was gonna win that season with that said I love Caridee. But Melrose had some beautiful photos
@@batmanrobin2011 i loved caridee too but i kind of feel like they literally dragged her to the end while knowing they weren’t gonna let her win
Can't believe the photo they picked for 'bearded lady'. No way in hell was that her best shot.
Jessica needs to look at the eyes above water photoshoot in Cycle 11 episode 5. I feel like it’s a cool concept and they did create som really nice photos in that episode.
Agree! That as as well as the Fuerza bruta episode on cycle 10.
Yes
Definitely one of the best photoshoot!
@jessica PLS
Most photoshoots from cycles 6,11,13 and 16 were pretty stunning as well
They allocated certain 'freaks' to specific girls to feed into their insecurities, sadism at it's finest
Sadism and abeism, it's a two-in-one package
The seventeen mag editor really said yeah Jaeda was so terrible, Jay had to do his job the whole time
I was looking for this comment. I laughed so hard at her "feedback". Frikkin ridiculous.
God I wish I could use this as an excuse for anything.
"Yeah, my school sucked, I had to STUDY!"
"Yeah, my boss sucks, they make me do my job!"
@@Fireprincess161 My dog sucks, I have to FEED HIM.
"He was so busy doing his job he couldn't do his job" 😂
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA HAH😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
Am I the only one who feels like this was a massively insensitive & inappropriate theme? Like...most "circus freaks" were just people with disabilities & deformities that society ostracized, abused & took advantage of. They were shoved to the fringes of society to be gawped at, mocked, & looked down on. Most of them had no choice but to join these traveling shows just to survive & they would *still* be attacked, robbed, and otherwise abused. They suffered _horribly_
This whole theme is just disgusting in my opinion.
While I don't feel quite as strongly as you do about it, I definitely found it in poor taste for the exact reasons you said. This whole shoot was just a big ol' "yikes" from me. Like, the people the shots are based on are not "freaks" or exhibits to be laughed at and ridiculed.
@@sluttymctits4496 I suppose I feel more strongly about it because I, myself, am disabled & have had a number of friends who would have been subjected to that treatment had they been born just a century earlier.
That & the fact that they were human beings & deserved to be treated with dignity. Also that in some places it's not a by-gone thing.
It's really a hard thing to navigate. For many who were in the freak shows, they said it was the only place that they were in company of people like them when they felt accepted and were treated with respect. I agree that this isn't something ANTM should have touched with a ten foot pole but I'm also unwilling to discount the lived experiences of those who worked in them.
@@SarahBent THIS
They should have just made all of them animals, I don't understand why they chose actual disabilities. They should have done one, or the other. The other being in really bad taste.
I’m a theatrical costumer and that note about how performers need to feel comfortable in what they wear is SO true! I mostly work with high school and middle school students, and very often their costumes are super different from their personal style. Reconciling that and making sure they are happy in the costume (even if it is “ugly”) is a huge part of my job!
I find conceptual photoshoots like this unfair tbh. They gave complex and freeing sets for other models then there's the twins that had to pose together while standing almost completely still
I always thought that they should let the model choose what they thought it was their best shot. Or maybe their best three shots and then the judges choose from those. Especially the way that they judge like the model is in charge of the shoot.🙄
That would be much better IMHO, but then it would be obvious that the models they criticize aren't really doing badly at all.
@@dontfeedthetrolls9798 Exactly
I liked how in Model Latina they had the girls choose their best photo AND the photographer would choose what he thought was their best photo and they would compare them at judging. Much better method imo.
They do that on Korea's Next Top Model.
Show an A and B shoot.
I'm not in the indutry but I think in real word the photografer show some pictures to the model but in te end of the day the photografer/editorial pick "the best one" the models don't have a final say about which picture will be publish....
"How dare you make Mr. Jay do his job."
She was probably smiling at the photographer's comments and was literally mid blink, there is no way that was an actual shot. xD
It was confirmed as a test shot for testing lighting.
You should to interview Joannie from cycle 6, she said she actually used some of the photos in her modelling book and one casting director saw the first photo and inmediately closed her portfolio and said "no" and asked her to leave
WOW 😯
She interviewed Keenyah from cycle 4, and she said she couldn't use her photos from the show because they were so over the top.
I mean that sounds like the casting director’s personal problem. They sound like a complete jerk.
Yeah, the Megg photo literally was the test shot. Tyra is trifling to me.
It's not always all tyras fault yeah it's easy to blame her for evething but at the end of the day it's a reality show and the producers dicide who stays and who goes home it's not always tyra
@@seanstoner8900 wasnt tyra a producer on the show tho?
@@courtneydover5672 🍵🍵🍵
@@seanstoner8900 Tyra was the one who chose the best shot for the girls
@@winterfromwisthollow Mr Jay said it's was not always her it's Ken mock and michille too look it up he spilled all the tea it's not always tyra
They cutted Jaeda's hair because Tyra feels intimidated by black women and needs to do something to ruin their self-esteem. I said what I said.
Not with Jaida. She looked way better with short hair
Eugene has long hair so your wrong no black girl on this show can come close to tyras beauty
Didn't they also say before her hair cut that she was like a younger tyra? 😂 when they cut her hair I was like: oof. Tyra hates competition.
@@seanstoner8900 Eugenia is prettier than Tyra and so are many others on the show. Also Tyras personality is ugly
Lots of black contestants on this show were given long hair.
U r so right. They wanted to send her home. They would have tried harder with the photo it’s self if they weren’t.
I can’t believe they placed the elephant nose upside down
“You guys did her dirty. You know who you are.” 😂 Facts!
I’m a contortionist. I have Ehlers Danlos syndrome . They wanted the rubber girl to do something that she physically could not do.
I just want to say thank you for that lady doing makeup because I feel like she had the most encouraging thing to say throughout this whole episode. Telling Melrose that she did have what it takes to be a model and to just stay positive. She was actually nice to her and I feel like you don't say that enough in the show lol
the lady: can't believe you made jay do his job
Poor Jaeda they did everything they could to strip her of her femininity. They really had it out for that girl.
Her makeover actually made her look more feminine.
I’ve thought that since I watched this season when it was new!!!!! It was such an unpopular opinion back then but I feel like a lot more people are starting to see that too
Jessica's reaction to seeing the photo of Megg has been my reaction every time I see this episode 16:56, "why did they choose this picture of her?"
It was obvious that they wanted to get her out because Megg wasn't doing quite well with the competition and they wanted her to come out before she broke down, or just the theory that the order of elimination was already marked was real. Megg revealed in Oliver Twixt interview that the final shot they chose was a test shot. It's so sad because Megg is my favorite model in the show's history, she's a cool person, sometimes we talk on IG and her vibe is so RAD.
She really did big at the end of the show, I think she is one of the most successful models of that season, with many projects and multiple jobs in her career as a model and artist, It makes me happy to know that she is doing well. Rock and Roll forever!
They say the editor of Seventeen mysteriously disappeared from the set and she hasn't been seen anywhere since.
Let's take Jaeda down a peg while she is being complimented!! Harsh
I felt soooo bad for Jaeda on this season. It's like Tyra was on a crusade to destroy her self esteem and mental health.
Do they even know the origin of this "circus freaks"? This "freaks" were people with a deformity or a disability that didn't look "normal" back in the day, and as a person with a certain condition, this episode offended me.
I wanted to say the same thing... I would have been a part of those things.
@@youngatheart212 yeah, me too
Unfortunately it was a way for them to make money. They also gave them people who would accepted them, a small family.
@@5117danielle In some cases, sure, but in most they were making money for other people, while completely selling off their humanity by becoming something to gawk at.
Well said! This was a super offensive photoshoot.
The way that Jay expects these girls to be perfect and nail every photoshoot without him having to lift a finger (despite him specifically being there to provide guidance) is absolutely outrageous.
I really dislike the „Freakshow“ concept. It is so mean and insensible.
Then do all of them as fantasy characters.
But don’t display something that might be a condition someone is struggling with.
It being mean and insensitive is the point though. It's not their original concept. "Freakshows", very unfortunately, used to be real, up until mid-20th century. People with various physical and mental conditions were displayed exactly in this manner or even enslaved, taken on tour to be shown for money. I will say I wish they would have emphasized that more in the show, but I think it's great that they highlighted a really dark chapter of history that, to be honest, was not long enough ago.
@@Futu06 they were just replicating the awfulness of freakshows. How is this in any way bringing light to the issue? I mean if they even explained what those conditions are, there would at least be an effort.
@@elainelouve Yeah, maybe that wasn't the best wording. I meant in the sense that a lot of people might not even know about it, or that it used to be a real thing that existed. But again, I wish they would have explained it. Kinda weird that they didn't, usually they jump at the chance to make it look like they're so thoughtful whenever the shoot is real-life inspired or on a serious subject. :D
They've picked on Anchal about her weight all season and gave her "the giant woman"? So out of line
Jess please keep the series going! I can relate to your personality so much and your sense of humor is truly exquisite 😄
Instead of cannibals, circuses often had people that bit the head off of live animals like chickens. I mean, that's just as gross, but it was a real thing.
poor animals :(
Or they had tribal poc as "savage barbarians" portrayed as cannibals.
Not so fun fact: What you described is the original definition of a "Geek".
Ok this disturbed me even more for some reason.
I learned that Tyra doesn't have a say in who wins and loses BUT she does have plenty of say in what photos to use
hey Jessica, can you make a video explaining why these photos (or likely any photos from ANTM) can't be used on a portfolio? I would love to hear your opinion on what makes for a good portfolio pic :D
My guess is the reason is twofold. First, the photographer owns the rights to the photos and knowing ANTM contracts, I wouldn't be surprised if there is a clause stating the models are unable to use the photographs outside of the show. Second, a few models have gone on the record saying that there is a stigma associated with ANTM in the modeling community, and that professionals don't take the shots from the show that seriously, or say they lack in quality compared to professional portfolio shots. So including them in your portfolio is more of a hindrance than a help.
Also, it is unlikely the models get access to the full set of shots taken from them, and are likely stuck with whatever photo the producers choose, which isn't always their best photo. So it'd be unwise to include shots that aren't you at your best.
Totally agree when she said that they did Melrose dirty!! Root for Melrose forever, love when she did a reaction on any cycle 7 episode!!!
Yay! Team Melrose here! :D
It's a fun concept, but you're totally right! Unusable for any future work when showing what they can do - it's almost -no, it IS hokey, and they did this for views on TV but not to actually benefit those models careers. I'd have pretended to be sick and dying 😂
can we talk about how nice jessica looks today???
RIGHT!!
She is beautiful
She looks beautiful everyday.
Within the first ten seconds of the video, and the first thing Jessica says is "WHAT have you DONE", I know this is going to be a good one.
The circus concept could have been cool but going the "freak show" route is a bit insensitive. This really is a very literal and halloween store portrayal of real people with real deformities and medical problems. Those people were called those names as a means to sensationalize their deformities for a profit. Some had relatively happy lives and were satisfied since it was the only way some of them could make money but others lived very terrible and short lives.
Tell that to the original people who created the concept. Not ANTM
@@missvida6251 but ANTM also used the concept knowing the implications? The people that first started freakshows were clearly wrong and ANTM shouldn't have decided to copy them.
Meh, I loved it.
@@jadeykg123 Agree with you 100% this was so insensitive
Omg.. The elephant snout is even upside down... They really did het dirty
I'm kinda torn on the shoot tbh. I like weirder, moodier, more artsy themes and vibes so I kinda like the concept, but I also get that freakshow stuff is kind of a topic that's poor in taste so I'm trying to be sensitive to that.
Do models usually not include photos that use a lot of prosthetics or heavy make-up in their portfolios? As an artist, I think the shots are interesting to see but I guess as someone scouting models it might not be ideal to see shots like this?
I wondered about it too. I don't understand why having artsy shoots would be so bad for the model's portfolio but I'm not an expert. Yet as an artist I love the concept of masks and dark/moody lighting. Wish they wouldn't go for "freaks" as that was demeaning, some photos could have been executed better for sure.
Its not something you include in a portfolio because those pictures generally work in a specific context or as part of a shoot, if you separate the picture it would look odd. Also, make up or styling could also overtake the picture and deflect the focus from the model to the art, being distracting.
@@helenaap2042 I see, thanks for the information!
@@helenaap2042 I had a feeling that was the case. Thanks!
It is so easy to emulate a moody or artsy theme without being ableist.
"Successfully be an elephant and you have what it takes to be a supermodel." ...I'm not sure ANTM understands what it is. "Let's go to the costume store, we'll get a santan a clown and some nurse costumes, maybe a ballerina. Yeah, lets put them on a bouncy castle and do mini pizzas. Can we get a face paint artist? Yeah? Now that's a concept!"
Now THAT would be an interesting photoshoot!
@@ReidTheNintendoPainter hahaha i was being facetious but a kids party theme sounds better than this nonsense.
I love your america's next top model reactions 🤣
Megg is the female equivalent to Kyle from the “Totally Kyle” skits from The Amanda Show. Love her!
CariDee and A.J slay this shoot but this photoshoot was so cheap and ridiculous. They ran out of idea for Cycle 7.
Cycle 7 had so many stupidly cheap shoots.
Agreed. The astronaut/wind tunnel shoot was ridiculous and the celeb couple shoot was cringe
The rocky run way…just too much
Can I just say those Halloween Town 2 references made my whole day 😂😂
Jess is not wasting time with an outro, just see you next time, cut! 😂
She never does an outro lol 😂
I usually think they can be ridiculous with their photoshoots but as someone that studied cinematography and love special effects makeup, I really liked the concept.
Hi Jessica, could you please do the following reactions to these photoshoots from America's Next Top Model:
Cycle 3 Covergirl Shoot (13th episode)
Cycle 9 Great Wall of China shoot (12th episode)
Cycle 9 Car in flames Desert shoot (9th episode)
Cycle 9 Recyclable materials shoot (5th episode)
Cycle 13 Headscarf shoot (5th episode)
Cycle 16 Camel shoot (10th episode) & Market high fashion shoot (11th episode)
These shoots are some of my favourites of all time and I think it would be nice for you to see the photography from those shoots.
Hope all is well x
Ok so update: Jessica has already reacted to all these photoshoots except for the Covergirl photoshoot from Cycle 3 and the Recycling photoshoot from Cycle 9
The photoshoot reaction videos of yours are my favorite (beside the bts and photographers shoot the same model of course 😊)
best part of the video is where you say: "her face is me, watching this, and then her face is probably you guys" worth to watch your reactions :D
CariDee still has that same elephant nose! She had her assistant wear it as a joke in her interview with Oliver Twixt. 🤣 🐘
I really craved a video right this moment - and here it is
I really love the concept, but some models had unfair advantage... I feel like CariDee and AJ had easier characters and better props, while Megg and Melrose could never get to their level because they were too limited... Classic ANTM.
Jessica I could watch your reaction videos to ANTM every day, they are so entertaining! Please continue to post them! Love you 😘
I think that this photoshoot was actually super creative and interesting ! Caridee and Melrose slayed it.
No, it was just offensive.
I loved Meg and Anchal this season.
Meg: “I have a beard now! Dude, like Rock and Roll”
"What in the Halloween Town" 😆 that was hilarious
one of the old models that you talked to yourself, told you that their antm "portfolio" was not meant to be usable at all, that it was basically just a gigantic joke. she had to remake her entire portfolio after the season ended and now works with young aspiring models to build a proper portfolio.
How did they get that kind of lighting when they were photographing during the day? Like.. it was so bright outside and they were still able to get this night time, seedy underbelly kind of look. Is that from editing? Or did they actually just take that long in the shoot?
Really good photoshop editing, I don’t edit photos but I would assume they did it in the day instead of night time cause it’s easier to darken a photo when editing then brighten a dark photo.
But I could be wrong 😂🤷🏽♀️
" I need that same energy but.. with 50 LBS of beard hair " 😂
They should make a spin off show... Americans best photographer
I think a better show would be a competition with teams consisting of a photographer and a model who compete to win a prize together. That way the entire photo being judged makes sense.
Mike Rosenthal is my favorite top model photographer. He did Asia’s Next Top Model as well
I love CariDee's elephant photo and AJ's cannibal photo.
Jess you are so right they flipped the elephant nose upsidown! Can’t believe I never noticed that.
They have a group of eager and creative young models to work with and have a good time, and instead they break their confidence and waste all their potential, for drama. Megg, the girl sent home seemed like one of the most interesting people to work with!! They don't know what they're missing.
Can we talk about how the elephant trunk was upside down?
The HalloweenTown commentary is killing me 🤣
Not her telling Jaeda how Jaeda feels when she looks in the mirror. I-
👁👄👁
“The parliament of the circus” lmao I love your commentary
What I like about watching your videos is that, not only are you very funny roasting the show, but you also give very interesting insight on directing photography. I feel like I'm learning a lot from you, even if only to take nice pictures of friends 😺
it is always the one who does a really great job at the beginning of the show and everyone hypes her up then they give her the worst task so she can fail and then they tell her that she did badly because she thought highly of herself
Just because it is not what you were expecting doesn't mean it is not everything you've been waiting for
I would have LOVED to do a circus themed photo shoot. I love freak shows and circuses !!! I love how all the photos turned out. I guess I’m biased because I love everything about the circus.
Hi Jessica, I love your videos! Do you ever do photography on plus-size models? It'd be cool to learn posing and lighting tips for people of different sizes.
A Halloweentown reference?! What a queen.
Be a model they said, it's gonna be glamorous they said... 😂😂
Ngl, Caridee's elephant picture is one of my favorites of the whole show lol. Never noticed the nose was upside down tho 😂
The show itself is the whole 🎪. The concept is cool but the execution is cheap and disastrous ☻
Who the hell would love to have these photos in their porfolio apart from the twin photo 😂
I just started watching your videos and your thoughts echo my own sooo much on ANTM... one of the biggest no nos they did for me was cycle 22, episode 13 when they had the models pose in the pitch black... my theory was they did this only because Nyle is deaf. "Hmm... he can't hear so let's also take away his vision that'll be interesting"
The elephant trunk on caridee is upside-down 😆 and a stylist gets a lecture from Tyra on how she had to glue elephant trunks on 1,000 girls with a broken arm, and her intestines hanging out and somehow managed to get them all correct
Would have made sense to have the "giant lady" theme with the small elephant 😂
They used a test shot for Megs best photo. Yeah right. We could see during her shoot she had better shots. Poland next top model and Australia’s next top model use actually the best shot and it’s genuinely hard to guess who’s going.
I wonder if she got emotional because she realized they were dooming her by choosing that as her best photo.
There was a time where conjoined twins joined circuses, I think that was the idea for them. Totally understand that they’re not freaks but normal people but just wanted to say maybe that’s where they were coming from.
Jaeda was wowing the judges before sweet sixteen stepped in. Absolutely ridiculous.
these are my favorite videos because I’m learning how to become a photographer. I don’t know what I want to do yet. But it’s good to look at other options .
The aged look was stunning and there wasn't anything wrong with it, I can't stand when people are just ageists.
Your favorite shot is also mine's. Apart from the pose, the lighting is very David Lachapelle-like, it was what I had expected from all of them. I wanted more dark backgrounds on more shots, like in the cannibal one. The lights and darks, and the FOV could have been tweaked for bettering that defining feel.
they gave the twins "Siamese" but they actually gave them "conjoined"
