ANTM Cycle 07: Ep 01

ANTM Cycle 07's beginning sequence was not as expected. Instead of the amazing sequence i expected, it was a dull description of ANTM, by Tyra. Her voice was one that held presence over shots of past scenes and the past contestants. Out of 1000's of girls who auditioned 33 were selected to take the path, at least until the first bus stop. They were met by J. alexander at the airport, who some of them did not know what to call, her or him. Quite funny really. Here (at the airport), they had their first photoshoot, no preparation allowed. Some were confident, others cursed at how unfair it was to have a photoshoot with no prep. Throughout the episode nigel baker and twiggy were no present, it's a shame as they are my favourites.

Once they reached the hotel Ron & Richard turned up to introduce them to... who else? Tyra Banks. Lots of screaming occured as usual. It was here we met the twins, Michelle and Amanda, who kept saying they were so different but when they were faced with tyra and the Jays they pulled the same poses and finished each other sentences. I think they need to face up to the fact they are the SAME!

From here they had their first cut, where 34 became 21. Girls such as Cyndel, who was a stripper and referred to stripping as 'EXOTIC MODELLING' (this is why Tyra wanted her gone) were sent home. Once the 21 were chosen they had 15 minutes to prepare for their second photoshoot. They got ready, and went outside to were Jay Manuel was and were hit by a bit suprise...

they were going to be shot nude.


There were those that found it difficult, such as Becky, and when the 21 became 13, those girls were sent home. Another girl that was then sent home was Evita, who was a 22 year old mother of 2 with her husband in Iraq. She had left her children at home and was upset that it was all for nothing. I think if she chose to have a family at that age she should prepare to sacrifice particular things (such as the comp) and she should be happy she got to go home to her children.



Those that were choosen at the end of the ep. were Christian, Michelle & Amanda, Megg, Megan, Anchal, A.J, Melrose, Brooke, Jaeda, Caridee, Eugena & Keenyah.
