"America's Next Top Model" kicked off its 20th cycle, this time featuring male contestants for the first time in the show's history. The premiere episode featured casting calls that narrowed the field to 26, who then were put through their paces in order to make the Top 16 that we will watch all season long.
It was interesting with the guy/girl dynamic because the flirtations and the potential for hooking up provides a whole new facet to the game that was not previously there. Also, with the guys, there was an extra "fraternity house" vibe going on, particularly with Chris H., who decided it was fun to put on boxing gloves and tag guys in the balls. It went over about as well as you'd think.
Standouts for us included Cory and Don on the guys' side -- they are very striking men, particularly Cory. On the girls' side, Jourdan is a very pretty girl,...

America's Next Top Model left off last week with a decision that will have major implications for the rest of cycle 19. One of the eliminated contestants would get a chance to re-enter the competition and make another run at the title, which could go one of two ways. Either the girl that comes back will be on a roll, having won over the social media crowd, and challenge for the top spot, or she would go from being the big fish in a small pond to a guppy in a the Top Model ocean and not live up to the opportunity that she had been afforded. If the right girl managed to get plucked from a near-elimination and dropped back into the competition, there could be trouble for the current favorites.
Guess Who's Back?
For quite a while this cycle on Top Model, Laura has been a major frontrunner,...

America's Next Top Model 18.03 "Cat Deeley" Review
Well, that was awkward.
And awesome.
Admittedly, I had kind of lost hope in this cycle of Top Model after an uneventful, nonsensical episode last week. The Americans were hideously boring, the shoot failed to be as artsy as it tried to be, and the show was focusing too much on the rivalry aspect vs., y'know, finding a competent model and whatnot. Once a cycle of Top Model nosedives like that, it very rarely fully recovers, with Tyra and company content to go own the rabbit hole of awful, self-serving reality TV and never look back. But I'll be damned if they didn't get it together already.
How about a relevant Top Model challenge? In 2012? Be still my heart. This week, Team Brit and Team Amurrica had to design their own ad campaigns for very.com and were in charge of every aspect: casting,...

Here we are, "America's Next Top Model" fans! Not only is our favorite ridiculous reality show back, but there are Brits! Cheerio, guvna! Based on the pictures they released pre-show, we think the UK girls have a huge advantage over the Us girls.
During intros, here's what stood out:
We love the androgynous girl, Azmarie. She comes across way better in person than she did in her still photo. Sophie says the dictionary is from Oxford, which is where she's from. We are confident she has a huge vocabulary and mastery of the English language. Annaliese says the Us is "not ready for the British invasion. We did it once, we can do it again." Do you suppose she means the Beatles? Because we whipped your butts in the Revolutionary War, thanks.We meet Laura, the bisexual, who has designs on Azmarie the lesbian. Then there's Ashley, who is Scottish,...

America's Next Top Model: All-Stars 17.11 "Highlights" Review
Hey, you know what this hideous season of Top Model needs?
Why, an episode that recaps every absurd, maddening minute of the hours of our life that we've sunk into this show, of course! Yes, "Highlights" was Top Model's typical late cycle look back at the good times, the bad times, and the times that made me want to throw my TV out the window. I don't typically watch clip shows, as there's very rarely any interesting information that gets presented, but because I love/appreciate everybody who reads and comments on my weekly reviews, I figured "why the heck not?". You're all top models in my eyes, my little pot ledoms.
And...there wasn't anything that stimulating that came from the new footage. At all. I mean, if you're into arguments about time on the phone or finding out that Alexandria has 13 besties (!), then hey,...

After trying to get past the shock and astonishment of last week's double elimination, which included head diva Bianca's departure, we started to wonder who would entertain us on America's Next Top Model for the remainder of the season? Um, hello. What a stupid question. Lisa's still here! Songwriting Sirens: The ladies got hit with a musical challenge this week, when they were asked to write lyrics to tracks that were put together for each of them. Oh, did we mention they only had 20 minutes? The fierce competitors received a little bit of help from music producer Tom Polce, who ultimately chose the challenge winner based off their writing skills. Lisa was chosen, which not only meant that...

Before tonight's episode even began, my patience for this season of America's Next Top Model was wearing dangerously thin. After several weeks of ridiculous challenges and unwarranted eliminations, now Bianca, and any promise of real drama to come, are gone. Plus, there hasn't been a Real modeling challenge in three weeks. Three Weeks!
And tonight, things just got worse, because that's Tyra's way. Just when you think she might realize her show is straying too far from its original premise, that perhaps it's time to dial things back a bit and start making sense again ... that's when the Real crazy begins. And not the ha-ha crazy. The bam-bam (that's my head against the wall) crazy. Truly, the only joy I found in this episode was being able to air all my grievances here, for you. So let's go:...

No America's Next Top Model all-star had a more fitting branding word, or made a more dramatic splash, than "candid" Bianca Golden. Whether you loved her honesty or hated her attitude, you've got to admit that the rest of this cycle will be much less exciting without her.
But some stars just shine too brightly to last very long on Top Model, and Bianca's second go-around on the show burned furiously bright, from her week one photo shoot flip-out to her week 7 bathtub boycott, and every outburst in between. All the in-house drama and her opposition to the show's gimmicky marketing challenges were entertaining, but the All-Star experience ended up overshadowing Bianca's actual modeling talent. So it wasn't too surprising that, when the judges sent her home, Bianca seemed more relieved than disappointed.
Here's Bianca to explain why she's glad she was eliminated, plus more on her contentious...

Kayla Ferrel is the most recent "America's Next Top Model" eliminated contestant. In her exit Q&A, she tells Zap2it about her experiences on the show, plus did you know she's really big in Japan? We had no idea.
Are you glad you went back to "Top Model"? Was it everything you hoped or expected it to be?
"Ummm, I'm very happy that I came back, I can say that. It wasn't everything I expected it to be, though, I can admit to that. I thought [before I came back], ' I've gone on, I've done my own modeling, I feel like I've kind of mastered that aspect of it' and then it's like I'm not hearing much positive feedback and I was confused about what they wanted. How do I portray 'free' in the way they want me to? I don't think I accomplished all my goals I wanted to achieve in...

Bianca Golden is the most recent "America's Next Top Model" eliminated contestant. In her exit Q&A, she tells Zap2it that she doesn't regret her decision to refuse to sit in the bathtub at the perfume challenge.
Are you glad you came back to "Top Model," was it everything you were expecting?
"It was everything that I came back for and more."
Some of the other girls have complained about what was pitched to them versus what the season turned out to be. Do you have the same complaints?
"I'm sure you don't want to hear mine. We were told it would be branding and then instead it was 'Antm' Cycle 17."
What were you expecting when you thought there would be more branding involved?
"More stuff like the perfurme challenge, more things that. Things you can actually associate to a brand, not so much like modeling challenges.

Well we made it everybody! We're finally in the home stretch of this cycle and it couldn't have come soon enough. As we start tonight's show Lisa is upset about Bre leaving but also adds that Bianca doesn't have a bodyguard anymore.
Alexandria, looking the least fierce I've ever seen her, reminds us that the judges knocked her picture for looking like "a reality TV star" and I'm reminded what a joke that is considering the fact that they are on a reality TV show. They — Tyra included — need to get over themselves and probably shouldn't use that as a way to cut the contestants down, particularly considering who their guest judges have been so far.
Shannon says she thinks the judges want more raunch from her. I think she just needs to stop being boring.
Bianca is pissed that the house is full of cliques because now she doesn't...

It's a double elimination on "America's Next Top Model" week, where they have what is maybe the most ridiculous photoshoot of all time (and that is saying something).
The Challenge
The girls are at the Roosevelt Hotel to design their own fragrance. Ooh, that's awesome. I would really get into that challenge. Lisa names her scent "Neon," Laura goes with "Love," Dominique goes with "Survivor," Shannon names hers "Smitten," Angelea names hers "Angelea" (of coruse she does, Angelea rules), Allison names hers "Honey Blood," Kayla's is "Free" (again, snoooooze), Bianca's is "Candid" and Alexandria's is "Diamondatrix." Huh.
I wish these were for sale because I really want to smell them all. I feel like I would like Allison's just because I love her and I'm kind of a big weirdo like her. But who knows? I want to smell them!
For the challenge, they are selling...

Pop quiz, class. Pencils up, only one question.
I made it multiple choice because, y'know, I care and stuff.
The America's Next Top Model fragrance, which is set to launch at the end of cycle 17, will smell like ___________________.
a. Booty tooch sweat, Nicole from cycle five's lost Red Bull, and the pee that Robin let out in cycle one during the snake photo shoot.
b. An empty bottle of Mr. Jay's hair dye that's been sitting in the garbage for weeks, the remnants of a drain in Andre's salon that hasn't been cleaned in a while, and the tears of wayward models from sea to shining sea.
c. The crushed dreams of stardom from everybody associated with Shedding for the Wedding, Fly Girls, H8R, Blonde Charity Mafia, High Society, Farmer Wants a Wife, Plain Jane, and Stylista.
d. Girlicious.
I'll give you a second to think.
Pencils down.
The correct answer is.

Once a reality show has been in the trenches for a few weeks, its contestants are bound to get a little frustrated. Even the most seasoned of reality famewhore can get a little tired of the constant grind that the medium requires: the inane challenges, the leading questions that you just know will be edited strangely, the lack of any proper distractions in television or the internet. After the show has gotten through its first few weeks and worn down the optimism to a nice, crisp apathy, you get to see the claws come out.
Luckily, Top Model: This Cycle Has Nothing to Do With Fashion Stop Pretending It Does, Tyra comes prepared for situations like this, as crazy Aunt Tyra let the girls take out some frustration in "Coco Rocha".

Coco Rocha is on hand for a "b**** fight" photoshoot. That should be such a stretch for some of the "America's Next Top Model" girls.
After Panel
Bianca continues to be confrontational and think everybody hates her because she's a threat. Must be Wednesday.
The Challenge
Flag football. Awesome. Brittny Gastineau and Julie Henderson are there. Brittny is a socialite and Julie is a "fiercely real" supermodel. The teams are filled out by the eliminated girls, then some NFL players - Julian Edelman from the Patriots, Jahvid Best from the Lions, Kareem Jackson from the Texas and Dante Hughes from the Chargers. Angelea is beside herself. You and me both, girl.
The stupid Tyra twist is when a flag is thrown, you have to immediately strike a pose for the photographer. You win a spread on Tyra's website and some jewelry. The winning team splits $5000 between the two charities represented...

Last week's episode of America's Next Top Model: All-Stars may as well have been renamed The Bianca Show. When she wasn't sparring with Lisa, giving stinkface on the runway or accusing Shannon of having an "ugly soul," Bianca was plotting further conflicts and complaining that her fellow models were jealous of her, didn't respect her, and were out to get her. (If they weren't out to get her before, they sure are now.)
By the grace of Michael Jackson's memory and La Toya Jackson's kindness (plus the judges deeming Lisa and Angelea the worst photos of the week), Bianca escaped elimination, despite her multi-part, multi-enemy meltdown -- which means that tonight, we're in for another installment of the drama. Something tells me that if Bianca doesn't subdue the attitude, the panel won't be so forgiving next time.
Check out four deleted scenes from last week's tense episode:...

Another Wednesday night is here and my booty is firmly tooched on the couch for America's Next Top Model. The three of us (I'm assuming there's still three of us) have made it all the way to the Kardashian guest star appearance. Yay for us.
When we last were with the girls, Angelea won the challenge and now she is feeling supa dupa fly and in her solo interview she says the other girls better be scared because they underestimated her. She's ready to take over now.
Bre thought she'd be doing better since she's been working as a model professionally for the last six years but she's not doing as well as she'd like.
Lisa says we better hold on tight because she's about to unleash the crazy beast from inside. I can't wait because I am bored as hell.
Kayla and Bianca talk about how they didn't think...

Bre thought she'd be doing better since she's been working as a model professionally for the last six years but she's not doing as well as she'd like.
Lisa says we better hold on tight because she's about to unleash the crazy beast from inside. I can't wait because I am bored as hell.

Well, it’s about time!Tonight’s episode, "Latoya Jackson," gave us some good old-fashioned Antm meltdowns and the sort of drama that got me hooked on the show in the first place.
For some unknown reason, Shannon the Christian felt attacked by Bianca the Villain, setting the stage for a huge fight that somehow ended up involving the whole house.In the middle of it all was, of course, Lisa the Clown.
Bianca’s supreme confidence coupled with the other girls aligning against her put her at odds with the judges and everyone but Bre.Yes, Bianca, you are 6 ft tall, 120 lbs. and beautiful.Now make up your mind on whether you want to be on Antm because you can’t seem to stop whining!
The girls modeled for the Kardashian Kollection for their runway on a carousel challenge.Sisters Kim, Khloe, and Kourtney all showed up to support...

What do you get when you cross Latoya Jackson, the Kardashian sisters, and drag impersonations of an icon no longer with us?
Give up?
Me, too and apparently so has Top Model, as "Latoya Jackson" proved once and for all that the show has pretty much bailed on all sense of fashion legitimacy this go around. I don't know why I keep expecting America's Next Top Model: All-Stars to turn things around and become a beacon of couture realness, but once again, the reality in this reality competition series took over and we were subjected to an episode even loopier and tackier than usual.
It's not that the show was poor in idea. I don't mind the Kardashians stopping by, as they're at least involved in the fashion industry and they've been famous for long enough to where they could impart some decent knowledge how to handle yourself in the public eye.

We start things off Wednesday (Oct. 12) on "America's Next Top Model" with Bre and Lisa talking about how they need to step it up and how they're in danger, which leads me to predict they are the Bottom 2 tonight. Meanwhile, Bianca is all mopey and Dominique rightly points out you can never be above an opportunity, which is true.
A lot of the evicted models have been telling us in interviews that they were pitched something totally different for all-stars than what it turned out to be. But it's still face time on TV and a chance for something.
Now there is phone drama about calling their families. Shannon has a good idea about drawing spots for time and Bianca gets last. She has a problem with it, but she's not confrontational about it, but Shannon the "quiet Christian" kind of loses it. I don't love Bianca, but I'm with her on this one.

Welcome back ladies and gents! If you've made it this far along the All Stars cycle of America's Next Top Model, you are a true warrior!
The episode begins with the girls coming back to the house and Angelea says she's going to work on showing herself more.
Lisa brings out the bottles of wine and reminds us she did a stint on Celebrity Rehab. I totally missed that season, but I'm thinking the networks are going to have to start redefining their takes on "Celebrity" "Stars" and "All Stars." Even though Lisa brought the booze out, she says she's not going to drink. She's going to keep her head focused.
The girls get some snail mail and while the younger contestants seem to be getting a lot of clothes and fun things from home, Camille gets a big box of work. She said she's been doing well but work...

Oh my, who says models aren't smart?
In "Anthony Zuiker," we got an early look at the most painful challenge that all Antm candidates face: memorizing lines. But double the pain because they had to memorize difficult (re: unpronounceable) medical jargon from CSI.
In almost every cycle of Antm to date, there was a medical mishap. In Cycle 6, Danielle suffered from food poisoning in Thailand; in Cycle 7, CariDee almost got hypothermia.This cycle it was Kayla with a serious headache.
After Kayla overdosed on ibuprofen, the poor thing had a “mini-heart attack” and was taken to the hospital.Thankfully, she returned to model mansion looking as good as new, even if she did look drained throughout the episode.
The actual CSI challenge was seriously painful to watch.Neosporin?Gas?Mass?Ass?These were just some of the words that the girls threw around as they attempted to pronounce "gas chromatograph mass spectrometer.

I'm not going to play, last night's episode of America's Next Top Model made me want this All Star cycle to be over with quickness. Not only am I over trying to suspend my disbelief that most of these girls were the chosen as "All Stars," but as of yesterday we found out Kelly Cutrone will be replacing Andre Leon Talley as a judge next season. Alright, I won't postpone this any longer, let's dive in.
As with the last two episodes, the girls are in the limo cab on their way back to the model house and are discussing the night's elimination results. Lisa says she was surprised she won. I don't know what kind of Toddlers and Tiaras thing she's got going on with her hair in these interview clips, but it needs to go.
The girls seem very surprised about Sheena's sashay away and keep saying,...

"America's Next Top Model" sent home contestant Isis King Wednesday night (Sept. 28). She tells Zap2it that she and many of the other girls were disappointed in the all-star cycle.
Are you glad you did "America's Next Top Model" again?
"I'll say that I don't regret any decisions I make in life, but I will say that most of the girls feel like we were like we were pitched that it would be more focusing on branding and your individual interests and talents, so it would be more geared towards what you're trying to accomplish, whether it is music or acting.
We thought that we were coming in and the whole format would be different and we came in and it was just another cycle of 'Top Model' and in a way, I felt like your accomplishments over the years were kind of shifted away and it was put back...

America's Next Top Model: All Stars kicks off its third week with Kristin Cavallari making an unannounced arrival at the house for a quick chat with the girls about staying true to themselves, before everyone is off to meet Nigel Barker at The Grove where a Big elimination twist is waiting. After the girls split into two teams - Team 1: Lisa, Laura, Alexandria, Isis, Dominique and Angelea / Team 2: Bianca, Allison, Bre, Camille, Shannon and Kayla - Nigel says that they will be interviewed by Extra host Mario Lopez and the team that does the best will be exempt from elimination at panel. Wow. Team two are the winners which means Lisa, Laura, Alexandria, Dominique, Isis and Angelea are facing elimination. Allison is named the overall winner and her prize is having a proper interview with Extra. Angelea's not feeling too good about Nigel's comments (more)...

New cycle, new Tyra-ism. In "Kristin Cavallari," we learned the importance of the booty tooch and that Bianca is scared of Chihuahuas.
Compared to some of the other cycles, the models are relatively subdued thus far in their quarters. Yes, Angelea did have a pretty major meltdown after being critiqued by Nigel, but there was little to no sniping.Come on, Antm! I’ve come to expect more from the show that entertained me with stolen granolas (Bre), chicken lessons (Alexandria) and ummm, Uncle It (Lisa).
Allison was undoubtedly the star of the show, somehow managing to look utterly adorable with her animal hood, while charming Mario Lopez and Nigel during her Extra interview.
The photoshoot du jour involved balancing on some of the most elegant stilts ever. Bianca broke down yet again about her fear of heights, to which Lisa retorted that she was scared of everything. Camille made...

In addition to smizing and whatever other weird stuff Tyra Banks has made up over the years, "America's Next Top Model" has now given us "booty tooch."
Post-Panel
Allison is wearing an animal hood around the house and talking about how weird she is. Huh. The next morning, Kristin Cavallari shows up. Yet another random guest judge who will not offer anything constructive.
The Challenge
At The Grove in Los Angeles, the girls are going to be interviewed in groups by Mario Lopez (currently of that awful, awful show "H8R") or Alfred Clifford Slater, as he will always be known to me. Lisa and Bianca get to pick the teams, so it ends up Lisa, Laura, Lex, Isis, Dominique, Angelea and then Bianca, Allison, Bre, Camille, Shannon and Kayla. And then Nigel drops a bomb - the winning team is safe at judging. Wow. That is a lot of girls.

We're here, "America's Next Top Model" fans. The newest cycle and probably the one we've most been looking forward to - all-stars. After a terrifying open where Tyra is apparently being haunted by the past contestants, we meet our girls:
Shannon Stewart (Cycle 1), Camille McDonald (Cycle 2), Brittany Brower (Cycle 4), Lisa D'Amato (Cycle 5), Bre Scullark (Cycle 5), Bianca Golden (Cycle 9), Dominique Reighard (Cycle 10), Isis King (Cycle 11), Sheena Sakai (Cycle 11), Allison Harvard (Cycle 12), Laura Kirkpatrick (Cycle 13), Angelea Preston (Cycle 14), Kayla Ferrel (Cycle 15) and Alexandria Everett (Cycle 16).
Here is our photo gallery if you want to check out the all-star ladies.
I'll have to confess - Cycle 7 was the first one I watched, so the girls from prior to that one are new to me. I apologize if I don't know what they're all about right away. But let's get to it!

Angelea still rubs me the wrong way. She's...

To prepare ourselves for the crazy, perhaps catastrophic premiere of America's Next Top Model: All Stars, let's familiarize ourselves with the contestants. We know a lot about these ladies from their time on the show, but what have they accomplished since then? What mysterious mystical force convinced them to take another shot at the much-coveted and often laughed-at title? Was it Tyra?
Some of these questions will be answered throughout this week, when we take a look back at the lives of these All-Star contestants. We'll also highlight a few of their best moments on America's Next Top Model.
We have the fiery personality Bianca Golden up for you today, so read on.

Other familiar faces will include Bianca Golden from cycle 9, Angelea Preston from cycle 14, and Alexandria Everett from cycle 16 - surely making for a combustible season of drama.

Which girls are your favorites? We'd have to say Kayla is probably our favorite returning All-Star.

When "America's Next Top Model" announced that the next cycle would be an "All-Stars" round, we couldn't be more pleased. In fact, we wondered what took so long?
The show taped a fashion show in Los Angeles on Wednesday (May 11) with all the judges and, hello, the models who are returning to battle it out for what they believed was theirs in the first place.
We're most surprised that delusional, but hilarious Jade Rodan from Cycle 6 wasn't included. And we're sad to see that they've invited "Why the long face?" Alexandria Everett from the current Cycle as she was extremely annoying and we haven't been able to enjoy her elimination long enough.
Who are we excited to see again? We thought Cycle 11's transgender contestant Isis King could stand another chance. And we're happy we'll be able to see if farm girl Laura Kirkpatrick has become worldlier since Cycle 13. And finally,...

There are so many reasons to thank you, Ty-Ty. You’ve provided us with reality ridiculata for 16 straight cycles. You call them cycles. And you created an “all-star” cycle inviting back previous “models” who will once again fight to “win” the title of America’s Next Top “Model.” I simply cannot wait to watch these “human beings”! But I have another reason to thank you: According to the all-stars line-up circulating the Web, you actually recruited some of my suggested alums! (Though The CW is not making any announcements yet.) That’s right: Cycle 4′s Brittany Brower, Cycle 5′s Lisa D’Amato,...

Los Angeles, CA, United States (Ahn Entertainment) - It's hard to believe that the next cycle of "America's Next Top Model" will be its 17th. But for its latest season, Tyra Banks is going to be seeing a lot of familiar faces as the show brings back some of its most popular runner-ups for an "All-Star" Edition.
The girls returning for a second shot at the title of "America's Next Top Model," or in this case "America's Next Top Model All-Star," range from contestants from the show's very first season to its currently-running 16th cycle.
Among the models set to return are Cycle 1 star Shannon Stewart, who came in first runner-up to the show's first-ever winner Adrianne Curry. Other first runner-ups returning for a chance at first place include Cycle 12's Allison Harvard and Cycle 13's Laura Kirkpatrick.
Other models set to return are Bianca Golden of Cycle 9, Cycle 2's Camille McDonald,...

Sometimes life imitates art. Sometime life utterly outshines art, especially if by art you mean reality TV, and by life you mean the show's trainwreck stars themselves. E!'s own Alexis Neiers from Pretty Wild pretty much wins the crown on this one. But she's got some bad company: America's Next Top Model's Bianca Golden , VH1's millionaire hunter Megan Hauserman and Real Housewives' slimey Slade Smiley. Survivor Villain Russell Hantz is just the latest to join this notorious club. So, what to you call it when a reality-tv star's real-life transgressions are far more intriguing than their shows? Hit your suggestions into the Celebrity Addictionary widget below, and...

Cue the faux hard rap music! "Top Model" is So On, b****es! Last week, someone-i-dunno got eliminated -- that's how scintillating and unforgettable she was -- and this week, the girls all get to do their obligatory wirework shoot. Now taking bets on who can't deal with heights. And who will rise up as the next queen of cattiness, now that Bianca has been toppled. "She has the social graces of a fetus," Kara hisses about Nicole. Well, there's that, then.

(S13E05) Benny Ninja invaded America's Next Top Model this week trying to teach the girls how to emote with their bodies. As long as he doesn't try creating stupid words like "Smize" or "H2T," he's good in my book. All the girls felt really bland this episode, probably because Bianca is gone and she's not ruffling any feathers.
Mr. Ninja needed some help and called on Lil Mama and the JabbaWokeeZ. Lil Mama? That's like trying to get Kim Kardashian to judge models. Wait, she is? I knew Tyra Banks was insane, but all the guests this year take the cake.

Is it me or is the sky a little sunnier, the air a little sweeter, now that Bianca has left the Top Model house? I shall enjoy it while I can, here, while I recap the fifth episode of Cycle 13 of Antm, because of course it's only a matter of time before the producers pick a new meanie. Squeee! But I ain't mad at it. [Full recap of Wednesday (Oct. 7) night's "America's Next Top Model" after the break...] Ashley was the other girl in the bottom two last week. She needs to step up her game. Nicole, meanwhile,...

This week's instalment opens with the remaining girls reflecting on the departure of Lulu and their individual places in the competition. A mourning Ashley suggests Lulu was the only person in the house that "really understood" her, while Erin admits that she was happy Brittany ended up in the bottom two. "She has won a million challenges, look how the mighty have fallen," she says. "Now she knows where she stands." Elsewhere, Bianca suggests that the last panel was a "triumph" because she avoided the bottom two and managed to lose the harshness in her face which means she is learning and that is progress. The first Tyra Mail of the week reveals that the girls are going to have a personal make-up lesson with Sam Fine, who teaches them the importance of knowing how to do their own face. He insists that they only need four key products: concealer,...

This morning I had the pleasure to talk to Bianca Richardson, the 21-year-old student from Washington, D.C. and latest eliminee from America's Next Top Model Cycle 13.
I was initially intimidated to talk with Bianca, given her rather harsh edit on the show as a woman with a hard exterior, who perhaps had an even harder time relating to other people. But I found Bianca to be very open and honest about her experience on Antm and her goals for the future, and mature about her portrayal on the program, which didn't exactly show her full personality, she claimed.
Check out what Bianca had to say about her time in the Top Model house, plus who she thinks should win Cycle 13, which photo was her favorite, and more! Full transcript and audio after the jump.
