you know, The Real World was right.
You think you know.
But you have no idea.
(sorry, shit like this just comes to me when it's my last week of classes as a college senior and I've been working on a paper for uh, it's gotta be 8 hours straight, after hearing some really weird-ass news about someone you know pretty well)

Australia!
In honor of the AMAZING Australia's Next Top Model starting today or... tomorrow or something like that, oh those wacky Australians, I present: Oh my God, THIS COMMERCIAL (the panel starts at about 1:50)...
OMG THEY ARE ACTUALLY TOTING AROUND BEAVERS THAT'S KIND OF PRESH. Oh and I think it says something about the ridiculous superiority of AusNTM over ANTM that these girls do better on a friggin' tampon commercial involving the words "down there" than any girl in ANTM has like, ever done on a freaking Cover Girl commercial, save, like, Analeigh's F7 commercial.
Yeah I realized I tagged this with "America's Next Top Model" when it's not, deal with it.

Ya know...
I kinda wish MMaS was still viewer-vote based, even though it made the taping of the show all weird and annoying, because then, COLIN WOULD NEVER LEAVE, YAAAAAYY!!! Seriously, our F4 would probably be, like, Sandhurst/Colin/Jonathan/Salome. AMAZING!
... but seriously, the boy's winning the poll on the website for who they can "make into a supermodel" this week. Um?! I love Colin but no.
Thoughts on the episode later :D

ANTM 4/22.
MMaS later.
1. Allison
Easily the best of the week. I absolutely love her pose, I think it’s so cute and interesting while not being weird. It’s an editorial model pose. She’s showing off the clothing extremely well. She looks strong and confident but not too harsh. Her eyes are slightly crossed, but that’s really the only flaw. Heck, she even makes the beaver teeth kind of work for her! You go, Creepy-Chan.
2. Teyona
Yes, yes, her arm is amputated, but this is still one of the best photos of the week and everyone seriously needs to get over it. Her body looks awesome, her pose is editorial, and she shows off the clothes so well. For a girl that looks like a cross between a velociraptor and crocodile in real life, she looks enormously beautiful and sensual in photographs a good amount of the time. I wish the judges would call her out on her three-quarters profile like they did with Sandra, but Sandra had so many other problems besides that (they were never gonna outright say about her beauty shot “THIS PHOTO IS HIDEOUS” even though it clearly was) and Teyona is pretty darn awesome.
3. Natalie
Well, it’s really boring because Natalie is obnoxious and thought she could just get away with being hot, but other than that it’s a good photo. Despite the fact that she’s sitting, she looks long, lean, and super modelesque. She takes her cues from Carmen Miranda while not being too literal. Her face is a little draggy, but other than that and the super boringness, it’s a good photo.
4. Fo
It’s not so much that this photo is literal that it’s just kind of wacky and super unmodelesque. I mean, everything about this photo conspires to make her look like a drag queen, I’m sorry, I love her, but it’s true. I like that cute little heel kick up, though, and her energy is great and she shows off the clothing really well. I just wished she’d remembered to be a model.
5. Aminat
Eh. People are acting like this is OMG SO TERRIBLE!!! but it’s not THAT bad. It’s just very… we’ve seen this maaaany times before from Aminat, from the yeah, “black girl in the ghetto 101” pose (though I gotta say, it’s pretty fierce and she looks like 500 feet tall), to the completely sleepy face that looks much the same as in her immigrant shot. It totally worked there and it totally DOESN’T work here. But I don’t know, it’s not THAT bad. I think she looks really strong and pretty. It’s just not all that fitting from the shoot and as I said, we’ve seen it before.
6. Celia
This is great… until you get to the face. Then, DEAD DEAD DEAD DEAD DEAD. Which is sad, because I love her pose, I think she looks so great and confident and shows off the clothing so well, but that face is such a freaking blank, it’s the worst of the week. I don’t think she looks that old in this photo either. Like, she looks old, duh, but she looks about as fresh-faced as she ever will. Too bad that “fresh face” is, as I said, DEAD DEAD DEAD DEAD DEAD.

you know...
it's really nice to see the Office boards agree that the past couple of episodes have been true to character, hilariously funny, and just overall excellent. The mood on there is actually optimistic as opposed to "waaaah what happened to my show bitch bitch whine bitch."
Oh, and next week has to be awesome, because CHARLES IS GONE FROM SCRANTON YAAAAAAAAAAAYYYYYYYY. The episode after is an episode called "Cafe Disco" where apparently Michael gets into the "cafe disco" business (what IS that, even?), and Jim and Pam "plan to take a secret trip." I don't wanna get myself TOO hyped up only to be disappointed like last year, but thinking of what Pam said tonight about the wedding being so expensive... elopement?! Please?!
Loved last night's episode.

ANTM C12: Ciara photoshoot
Hey, I HAD A THESIS LAST WEEK, OKAY? At least I posted it in time for this week's episode...
1. Natalie
Honestly, the impact of this photo alone is enough to put it at #1 (it’s an instant WOW! shot), but it stands up even against closer scrutiny. She looks so ferocious overall and even incredibly sexually aggressive (I’m sorry, it’s a pretty come-hither pose), but it’s not off-putting because this picture is so good. The pose is amazing; she totally stands out and Ciara is like an afterthought. Her face would have been too much in probably any other week, but considering this week’s theme and her photo overall, it’s absolutely perfect. It really does look like she’s totally desperate for fame, which was a perfect way to go for this shoot. Stunning.
2. Fo
As the judges said, ANGLES! She managed to make this overall pretty boring pose extremely interesting with all the, well, angles and oh God I sound like the judges but, TENSION she’s using. Her arms and hands here are frigging perfect. Her face looks beyond beautiful. She totally stands out. The only reason she’s not getting a first call-out is that it lacks the WOW! of Natalie’s photo and she really doesn’t need to make herself look any shorter than she is. But GREAT anyway.
3. Allison
Like Natalie’s, this is an “instant impact WOW!” shot, but unlike Natalie’s, it doesn’t stand up to closer inspection so strongly. It’s still extremely good, though. My main issue with it is that her face isn’t really very flattering here; she looks like she’s sucking on a lemon. But that pose is amazing and I love the shape of her face and the expression she’s giving. She managed to turn her “same look” different and make it wildly perfect. I just wish she looked a little less like she was going to kill me.
4. Celia
She doesn’t stand out QUITE as well as she could (I think her standing out is more because she’s so pale against that dark background rather than her actually standing out), but that pose is super fierce, minus the weirdly foreshortened arm on the left. That outstretched arm is genius, though. What really sets Celia down so far, though, just like in the “finding the light” week, is her face. I mean, she looks intense and vicious in a good way, like Natalie, but unlike Natalie, Celia needs to watch her face when she does that, because she already looks perpetually angry. She crosses the line into flat-out ugly. And, as ever, she looks approximately 87 years old. The flaws in the face are only noticeable in close-up, though, and as I said, that pose is rockin’.
5. Teyona
Just because it’s the photo right before the bottom two doesn’t mean it’s bad at all, but something about this photo is almost too calm. In a week when many of the girls ratcheted it up to eleven – rightfully, I think – something that’s a good picture but kinda “meh” stands out in a bad way. Ciara also stands out more than Teyona does. Though, this picture is still pretty damn good. I love the angles in the torso and that one arm we can see, but the other arm is totally missing and her legs seem to have disappeared in a mess of cables. The face looks GOOORGEOUS but again, too calm. I adore the eyes, though. Again, the top five photos were great and then the bottom two were kinda crap.
6. London
Large step down, and really there’s not much difference between Aminat and London. The thing that saved London is I think she had a slightly better pose… not that it’s a great pose. Seriously, what happened to the arm? She looks like she’s ensnared and confused by the wires. And her legs look like they’re stumps. But I like the way she thrusts herself out and presents herself. I know the judges made a big deal about her face, but I like it. I think she looks strong, but yeah, not the most flattering angle.
7. Aminat
Eh. It’s not terrible, but it’s still the worst of the week. She doesn’t stand out as well as she could. The face is okay but she looks absolutely panicked and like she has no control of the shoot. She also looks old. What sets her down further than London is, as I said before, that I think London had a somewhat better pose, even though neither of these poses was great. Aminat is simply lying there, a good amount of her body is obstructed, and her thighs look monstrous. Ciara stands out more. I like the grabbing on to Ciara but that’s not gonna save her.
CAN'T WAIT for Brazil and hopefully the photoshoots to actually get GOOD or at least non-terrible at this point. Though actually, these weren't awful pictures, just a terrible theme. Also, YAY, MMAS is back tonight!!!

Bill Murray's still badass.
To answer the question at the end of this article, I would indeed pay a hefty sum of money.
Also, in one of my classes, we got to watch the 2000 Hamlet with him as Polonius and I was reminded of how awesome he is and how much better he was than the entire rest of the cast probably combined. Though Jeffrey Wright's in there too! For 10 seconds!

Obsessed
Yeahhhh, this doesn't look offensive in any way, shape, or form. Especially not when it comes to horrible racial or gender stereotypes! Not at all!
But more offensively (not really): seriously, WHO KEEPS TELLING IDRIS ELBA HE CAN DO COMEDY TYPE THINGS? BECAUSE NO HE CANNOT AND STOP TELLING HIM THIS, HIS AGENT OR WHOEVER.

so I rewatched the Rent movie today
Okay, so "What You Own" (AKA the "living in America at the end of the millennium" song). That's like, my favorite song in the whole show. And the movie? RUINS IT FOREVER. In a HILARIOUS way.
ZOMG the scene where they sing it is so amazingly bad and hilarious. Like, why is Roger on the cliff from Britney's "I'm Not A Girl, Not Yet a Woman"? Why does Mark scream out his quitting confession instead of, I dunno, calling? The world may never know and we're like, all better for it.
You're living in A-mer-i-CAH! At the end of the millennium!

TWoTF.
So I just saw some comment on TWoP that said Natasha Richardson's death was karma for giving Hosea his immunity challenge win on Top Chef. They weren't kidding either.
Wow, you're... a dispicable human being, whoever wrote that.
WTF.
Wow, you're... a dispicable human being, whoever wrote that.

It's Michael Scott, bitch.
"Dream Team," the first episode? Eh. It was okay. Probably bottom five of this season. I mean... it was just so sad. It was well-written, but I need some more laughs in my comedy, you know?
"Michael Scott Paper Company"? OMG SO MUCH LOVE!!!!! I seriously still cannot stop laughing at like, everything in that episode.

FREEEEEEEEEEEEEE
That's me. Kind of. After Friday moreso than now, but at least that stupid-ass play is over. =/
Monday, April 06, 2009
okay, so if Parks and Recreation gets The Office this much publicity every week...
...it can stick around for at least a LITTLE while. Seriously, when the heck was the last time TO got half, nay, a quarter of the publicity they seem to be showing this week?
(OMG this is tooooooooo funny. It's also, yes, exactly like an office I worked at. Poor Andy!)
You know...
...until I saw that photo that's now my avatar thingy on fourfour, I never realized how much I look like Allison. Seriously, chop a good portion of that hair off (make it what I believe I read in Glamour/Lucky/one of those bullshit magazines is called a "lob," or a "long bob"...) and make it a honeyed blonde instead of platinum, and it's me. I don't post pictures of myself online (it makes everything more ~mysterious~ plus one of my best friends from high school got severely FB stalked and it freaked me out), but SERIOUSLY, if you wanna see me, just Photoshop that picture according to what I said. Oh, and my eyes are hazely green, not blue.
...that was pointless.
...that was pointless.

ANTM & MMaS April 1.
ANTM: All these girls are fucking idiots. That fight over Tahlia/Celia was just so dumb. Teyona and Aminat are obnoxious, and Natalie is a condescending stealth bitch. Sandra is so arrogant, but looking at the fight, she actually was pretty okay. Tahlia is really whiny and annoying, but less so than those three.
Anyway. Photos!
1. Teyona
Ugh, this is gorgeous. I didn’t think she could pull off a beauty shot because her face is, well, weird, but as you can see here, it’s the best of the week. She looks so much better in photos than in person, generally. I love the angle of her face and how this photo is interesting despite the fact that it’s just a beauty shot, and I love the somewhat undetermined/pensive expression on her face. Man, this photo is so awesome. I’m not crazy about the teeth but even THEY work here.
2. Tahlia (don't hate)
It’s not very exciting, but goddamn, it’s beautiful. She looks so regal and there’s such warmth and life in her eyes. It’s a really serene photo. I love how she’s not doing very much, and yet this photo still leaves an impact with just her eyes. I don’t understand people who were like OMG SHE HAS DEAD EYES… oh wait, everyone hates Tahlia for no good reason other than that she’s a bad model usually (but not this photo) and annoying, I forgot. The shape of her face here is great, as well as her cheekbones. I’m happy that Tahlia’s improving… I mean, as long as she’s still there when she should have left weeks ago, she might as well, right? After watching the episode, I can say that I 1000000% agree with Tyra’s assertion that there’s something almost Mona Lisa-y about it. Huh. I’m such a weirdo.
3. Fo
I’m not AS crazy about this photo as some others (it’s almost a bit TOO strong) but I do think it’s positively awesome. Her face looks a little… off when it’s straight forward like that, but I absolutely love how strong she managed to make this picture, while still keeping it quite feminine (though like I said, it’s a little too strong, but still awesome). Also, YAAAAAY, ARCHED EYEBROWS, YOU HAVE NO IDEA HOW HAPPY THIS MAKES ME. She really does nail the idea of “red.” Oh please have her go overseas, considering how strong the judges thought this photo was!
4. Celia
My only issue with this photo is that she does look old, especially in HD with the gray hair (sabotage!), but this photo is beautiful. She’s totally elegant and her neck, jawline, and eyes are absolutely to die for. She looks much softer than she usually does, while still strong and even forceful, like she's asserting herself. Gosh, this is gorgeous. Not much else to say.
5. Allison
Does she only have one look? Maybe. Does it work, and could she take it to the bank? Hell yeah. She’s out of the “OMG AWESOME” range for this shoot, but this photo is still good. She really captures the innocence and girlishness of pink perfectly. Her eyes are amazing. Ugh, this picture would have been so much better if she just CLOSED HER MOUTH. Because she has the hated RABBIT TEETH. But you know what? Honestly, Allison pulls the rabbit teeth off better than pretty much anyone else in ANTM history… which doesn’t exactly mean she pulls it off but you know, the more I look at this picture, the more I like it. It’s still not in Teyona/Tahlia/Fo/Celia’s league, though.
6. Aminat
Honestly, if I could have called Allison and Aminat out together, I think I would have, though on second glance actually Allison’s is much superior. But, uh, yeah, moving on. Anyway, I think this is a good shot, I like the look in her eyes, but I think… I dunno… something about the bug-eyes and the bug-lips and the bug-nose kinda weirds me out. She looks like some kind of lizard or frog or something. But it’s not a bad shot. She's really the only one that didn't do OMG AMAZING! or OMG HORRIBLE! And speaking of OMG HORRIBLE!...
7. London
Oh my God, she looks like she has blue herpes or something. It’s mildly horrifying at first glance, to be honest. I mean, part of it was sabotage on the part of the makeup, but I don’t think it’s that great a photo anyway. I do think she’s getting the iciness of the blue color down, so points for that, and there is some great energy in her eyes and she attempted as much dynamism as she could with the pose… but she just seems so uncomfortable. And yeah, I can’t get over the blue herpes.
8. Natalie
Oh my God, she really needs to avoid the straight-on headshots. Seriously, her face looks like a blob, which is my main problem. It looks like she has no bones in there, which is obviously BAD for a model. But even if her facial structure looked flawless, I still don’t think this would be a great photo. This is due to the fact that mostly, she looks completely stoned off her ass, and the uncertain way she’s holding up her hand against her face doesn’t help. Really bad photo.
9. Sandra
LOL WTF is this. Yes, London and Natalie were terrible, but there was absolutely no doubt that this was the worst photo this week. I mean, she just… she looks like the Abominable Snowman! That’s really all I can say, she looks absolutely terrible. The color looks great on her but it’s just a completely laughable shot. She looks stoned out of her mind like Natalie, too. That smile is totally awful. Seriously, what the hell is up with this? Ugh, Sandra had sooooo much potential but it sort of fell away. I mean, part of it was the terrible makeover, but part of it was the fact that she just kinda sucked.
Rankings:
Allison = 6/1/8/2/5 = 4.4
Aminat = 10/11/6/3/6 = 7.2

Teyona = 3/2/10/1/1 = 3.4
Go Fo, Teyona, and Allison!
MMaS: Can we get some drama up in here? Can Branden like, figure out he's gay already? Can Colin get laid? Along those lines, can Kerryn just jump his bones already? Can Amanda and Jordan either make out for serious or try and kill each other? Because when the main drama is CJ being a bitch, well that's not very good drama at all.
Group shots:
1. Kerryn, Jonathan, CJ
2. Salome, Laury, Colin
3. Amanda, Jordan, Branden
4. Sandhurst, Mountaha, Gabriel
Individuals:
1. Jonathan - Seriously, Jonathan, do you have to be perfect at everything? This is so gorgeous and sensual.
2. Kerryn - God, she's beautiful. I'm really glad she won immunity because I thought she owned that catwalk this week and this picture is obviously great. Only two minor nitpicks, and that's that it looks like she has SEVERE under-eye circles, and her body doesn't exactly look model-ready. Other than that, stunning.
3. Colin - Ugh, SO HOT. His body shape is great. He really makes this photo because the girls aren't bringing a whole lot.
4. Amanda - Jordan probably looks better but she looks good too, and she's following the idea of the shoot more because it's a more intimate photo. Is it just me, or does she look froggier and froggier every week? And why do these two look so freakishly short?
5. Jordan - See what I said about Amanda. I think it might be the better shot but Jordan's clearly pretending like Amanda's not even there. It's the first photo of Jordan I can officially say I like though, YAY.
6. CJ - CJ's really lucky. Even when she's fucking around on set, she's unbelievably photogenic. Except for the sports photo, all of her pictures were actually amazing. She's not as amazing as the other two in her shot because well yeah, she looks uncomfortable if beautiful and sensual.
7. Gabriel - Not really creative, but GOD he's hot. The boob grab is a no. Oh how I wish they'd included one of the pictures with him or Sandhurst in the middle...
8. Mountaha - I love how in-control she looks and how her face actually photographed well for once! But I have to agree with Perou (WTF!!!!!!!!!) that it looks like she's being molested.
9. Branden - Uh, he's not really doing much. It's not bad, he's just not doing anything.
10. Salome - She looks great, but she's doing nothing.
11. Sandhurst - I think I would like this better because he looks great if I didn't think OM NOM NOM NOM every time I looked at this photo. It's honestly kind of laughable. But again, he looks great, and really into it... I just wish he wasn't devouring her thigh!
12. Laury - You can barely see her and what you can see is fuggo.
Anyway. Photos!
1. Teyona
Ugh, this is gorgeous. I didn’t think she could pull off a beauty shot because her face is, well, weird, but as you can see here, it’s the best of the week. She looks so much better in photos than in person, generally. I love the angle of her face and how this photo is interesting despite the fact that it’s just a beauty shot, and I love the somewhat undetermined/pensive expression on her face. Man, this photo is so awesome. I’m not crazy about the teeth but even THEY work here.
2. Tahlia (don't hate)
It’s not very exciting, but goddamn, it’s beautiful. She looks so regal and there’s such warmth and life in her eyes. It’s a really serene photo. I love how she’s not doing very much, and yet this photo still leaves an impact with just her eyes. I don’t understand people who were like OMG SHE HAS DEAD EYES… oh wait, everyone hates Tahlia for no good reason other than that she’s a bad model usually (but not this photo) and annoying, I forgot. The shape of her face here is great, as well as her cheekbones. I’m happy that Tahlia’s improving… I mean, as long as she’s still there when she should have left weeks ago, she might as well, right? After watching the episode, I can say that I 1000000% agree with Tyra’s assertion that there’s something almost Mona Lisa-y about it. Huh. I’m such a weirdo.
3. Fo
I’m not AS crazy about this photo as some others (it’s almost a bit TOO strong) but I do think it’s positively awesome. Her face looks a little… off when it’s straight forward like that, but I absolutely love how strong she managed to make this picture, while still keeping it quite feminine (though like I said, it’s a little too strong, but still awesome). Also, YAAAAAY, ARCHED EYEBROWS, YOU HAVE NO IDEA HOW HAPPY THIS MAKES ME. She really does nail the idea of “red.” Oh please have her go overseas, considering how strong the judges thought this photo was!
4. Celia
My only issue with this photo is that she does look old, especially in HD with the gray hair (sabotage!), but this photo is beautiful. She’s totally elegant and her neck, jawline, and eyes are absolutely to die for. She looks much softer than she usually does, while still strong and even forceful, like she's asserting herself. Gosh, this is gorgeous. Not much else to say.
5. Allison
Does she only have one look? Maybe. Does it work, and could she take it to the bank? Hell yeah. She’s out of the “OMG AWESOME” range for this shoot, but this photo is still good. She really captures the innocence and girlishness of pink perfectly. Her eyes are amazing. Ugh, this picture would have been so much better if she just CLOSED HER MOUTH. Because she has the hated RABBIT TEETH. But you know what? Honestly, Allison pulls the rabbit teeth off better than pretty much anyone else in ANTM history… which doesn’t exactly mean she pulls it off but you know, the more I look at this picture, the more I like it. It’s still not in Teyona/Tahlia/Fo/Celia’s league, though.
6. Aminat
Honestly, if I could have called Allison and Aminat out together, I think I would have, though on second glance actually Allison’s is much superior. But, uh, yeah, moving on. Anyway, I think this is a good shot, I like the look in her eyes, but I think… I dunno… something about the bug-eyes and the bug-lips and the bug-nose kinda weirds me out. She looks like some kind of lizard or frog or something. But it’s not a bad shot. She's really the only one that didn't do OMG AMAZING! or OMG HORRIBLE! And speaking of OMG HORRIBLE!...
7. London
Oh my God, she looks like she has blue herpes or something. It’s mildly horrifying at first glance, to be honest. I mean, part of it was sabotage on the part of the makeup, but I don’t think it’s that great a photo anyway. I do think she’s getting the iciness of the blue color down, so points for that, and there is some great energy in her eyes and she attempted as much dynamism as she could with the pose… but she just seems so uncomfortable. And yeah, I can’t get over the blue herpes.
8. Natalie
Oh my God, she really needs to avoid the straight-on headshots. Seriously, her face looks like a blob, which is my main problem. It looks like she has no bones in there, which is obviously BAD for a model. But even if her facial structure looked flawless, I still don’t think this would be a great photo. This is due to the fact that mostly, she looks completely stoned off her ass, and the uncertain way she’s holding up her hand against her face doesn’t help. Really bad photo.
9. Sandra
LOL WTF is this. Yes, London and Natalie were terrible, but there was absolutely no doubt that this was the worst photo this week. I mean, she just… she looks like the Abominable Snowman! That’s really all I can say, she looks absolutely terrible. The color looks great on her but it’s just a completely laughable shot. She looks stoned out of her mind like Natalie, too. That smile is totally awful. Seriously, what the hell is up with this? Ugh, Sandra had sooooo much potential but it sort of fell away. I mean, part of it was the terrible makeover, but part of it was the fact that she just kinda sucked.

Go Fo, Teyona, and Allison!
MMaS: Can we get some drama up in here? Can Branden like, figure out he's gay already? Can Colin get laid? Along those lines, can Kerryn just jump his bones already? Can Amanda and Jordan either make out for serious or try and kill each other? Because when the main drama is CJ being a bitch, well that's not very good drama at all.

LOL, CJ...
So professional!
Look, I was rooting for you at the beginning of the competition because you had an awesome attitude about being short and boobtacular and when Salome was like "I can beat you!!!!" But after that week, your attitude started to blow. This is the shitty cherry on top of your bitter-ass sundae... good riddance, bitch.
Also, some of those comments are so over-the-top it's hysterical. Jordan being the "spawn of Satan" is like... Michael Scott and Toby on The Office. Colin comes off as anything but arrogant and a know-it-all. I don't see how Gabe can be obnoxious, rude, and dull. And, er, yeah. Basically, SHUT UP CJ.
