'America's Next Top Model' Episode 3 Recap

America's Next Top Model was hard for me to watch tonight. This show, which use to be one of my favorites, has become a totally different show from the first cycle. I realize that the show execs are responsible for changing things up a little, to keep it interesting, but tonight's episode wasn't entertaining. It was borderline dumb.

Tyra, Mr. Jay and Ms. Jay end up doing a Snow White type of skit and Tyra dresses up like a good witch, or maybe it was a fairy; I can't remember which she was going for. In the premiere episode of Cycle 11 of America's Next Top Model, they did this futuristic thing that included a lot of computer graphics and Mr. Jay with longer silver hair... I don't know how long I'm going to be able to continue to watch full episodes.

During tonight's show, the girls finally get their makeovers, some of which are very much needed. Elina goes from a brunette to a racially ambiguous red-head. She seemed to be the only one that had a huge problem with her new do, but only for a day. She eventually got over it and learned to love her new hair.

Brittany cries when Ms. Jay calls her "pretty." She's disappointed, because she wants to be a high fashion model and doesn't just want to be pretty.

The challenge for tonight took place at a local Wal-Mart. The girls had to shoot a TV commercial about CoverGirl's TruBlend liquid makeup. You would think this challenge was easy, but the girls were not given a script and the TV spot was only 30 seconds. As always, some of the girls shined and others embarrassed themselves. One of the girls even forgot what store she was promoting and said "Walgreens" instead of "Wal-Mart!" Sweet little Hannah was the winner of the challenge. Her prizes included a $1,000 Wal-Mart gift certificate, courtesy of CoverGirl; that's a lot of groceries!

Bikinis were promoted during the photo shoot. I thought this was going to initiate an interesting moment for Isis, the contestant that was physically born a man, but she had no problems with the shoot.

At the judging panel, Elina is the first to be called to "continue to be in the running towards becoming America's Next Top Model." Analeigh and Brittany are the last two standing. Tyra says that the judges expect more from Analeigh and Brittany is criticized for being too pretty (again). Brittany goes home after Tyra suggests to her that she buy a lot of high fashion, foreign magazines and study the models.

Next week on America's Next Top Model Ms. Jay tries to teach the girls how to work the catwalk and a girl gets sent home immediately after the challenge, she doesn't get to make it to judging.

Stay tuned!

America's Next Top Model airs on Wednesdays at 8pm (EST) on the CW

I think Brittany looks like one of the chicks from the show GIRLFRIENDS - the light skin women who was the free spirit ... anyway. She needed to go home b/c I didn't think she would grow on the show. She looks like a video girl ... Brittany would go far there.

I love all things pop culture. I care about everything from who's pregnant with who's baby, to who's the latest teen celebrity (rich brat) to get arrested. My professional background includes PR, which probably explains my need to be in the know about as much as possible when it comes to current events, celebrity gossip and who's doing what on reality shows.
