Deleted User	Previously, Monique was finally eliminated which seemed to make the entire house happy. Between her disturbing antics, and her illness, it was definitely time for her to go. The competition is now down to ten girls. The day starts off with our first Tyyyyyyra Maiiiiiiil. Tyra Mail Don't get it twisted. For some of you, being a Top Model is quite a stretch, so prove to me that you will bend over backward for fashion. The girls meet with Stacey McKenzie who says that ..she.. (not sure if it's a he or a she) is a model. She says that they are going to try to get the girls to incorporate some quirkiness and edginess into high fashion posing. They are then introduced to Jonathan Nosan who is a contortionist. After he shows some examples of his extreme posing, he tells the girls that they will try to duplicate the pose in their own way. Melrose feels that she will be great at this, since she recently took up yoga. As they girls practice some stretching poses, Anchal seems to be the most limber of the bunch. Melrose is less than thrilled with this development. Later that evening, some of the girl's are in the hot tub discussing Anchal. Melrose says a few unflattering things about her, and Caridee and Anchal overhear the discussion. Anchal bursts into tears. In a private interview, Caridee says that she thinks that Melrose brings herself up by knocking other people down. A.J. attempts to comfort a tearful Anchal. The girls go to the Oasis Restaurant for dinner and are surprised with a special guest. Twiggy. She talks with the girls about the importance of being yourself when you are modelling. To find your own uniqueness and not copy someone else. Some of the girls get a bit annoyed with Melrose, since she begins dominating the conversation with Twiggy. Caridee says that Melrose does this alot and it's aggravating to watch her stick her nose up everyone's a. The next day we hear the squeal of Tyyyyyra Maiiiiil. Tyra Mail There are some catty bitches in the house. She's eyeing you and ready to knock you off of your pedestal. The girls meet with designer Bao Tranchi. She tells the girls that they will be modelling her new collection and using what they learned in extreme posing. Also, they meet Erica Courteny, a jewelry designer, and she has brought 10 items of jewelry worth over 30,000.00. Each girl will select one piece to model with their outfit. After the girls are ready, they all come out and stand on pedestals. They have to stand in an extreme pose and hold it, as if they are a statue. Each girl tries several different poses. Bao announces the winner of the posing competition. Eugena !! Her prize is that she wins all of the jewelry that the models posed with. Again, Melrose is frustrated with the fact that she wasn't the best, and she talks on and on and on, making excuses for why she didn't win. The girls get a chance to talk with Tyra and the conversation eventually centers around the Melrose/Anchal situation. Anchal begins crying and says that it really hurts her when she hears people talking about her. She says that she was never pretty as a child, and that she has low self esteem and not alot of self confidence, but that people don't believe it and think she is just acting. Tyra tells her that you can't let people get into your head and affect how you feel about yourself. She says that it has happened to her in the past as well, but you have to stand up for yourself because modelling is a dog eat dog world. Tyra gives everyone a hug and in a private interview Melrose says that she feels as though she has been singled out as the bad person in the house now. The house sounds rather peaceful until we hear that all too familiar sound of .. Tyyyyyra Maaaaail. Tyra Mail Model's aren't necessarily the most beautiful girls in the world. They tend to be gawky, have eyes that are too far apart and foreheads that are too big. They pretty much are FREAKS of nature. The girls are whisked off to somewhere in the middle of the desert where they meet Jay Manuel who is standing in a ticket booth at what appears to be a circus !! He tells them that their photo shoot will be based on the Freak Show Circus's from the turn of the century. The photographer will be Mike Rosenthal. Jay emphasizes the fact that he really wants the girls to embrace the characters that he gives them to portray. Megg: the bearded lady Jaeda : the strong woman A.J. : the cannibal Anchal : the giant lady Caridee : the elephant woman Eugena : the bird lady Brooke : the rubber girl Melrose : old lady face with young body Michelle & Amanda : siamese twins While most of the girls shoots went quite well, Jay was less than impressed with Megg and she was well aware of it. He said that when he talks to Megg in person, her whole face lights up with personality, but in front of the camera, she loses it. After the circus shoot, the girls arrive back home to find .. Tyyyyyyra Maiiiiil. Tyra Mail Tomorrow you will meet with the judges. Only 9 of you will continue on in the hopes of becoming America's Next Top Model. The girls meet with Tyra and the judges. The guest judge is Atoosa Rubenstein who is the editor-in-chief of Seventeen Magazine. Judge's Evaluations A.J. : Tyra loves her body language and Nigel agrees. Twiggy says the intensity in her eyes leaps off of the page. Eugena : Nigel says that this is the first time she has used eye contact. He says that just from the one picture, he would hire her for a job. Brooke : Twiggy says she loves the body language but doesn't like the face. Tyra says she actually likes the picture. Michelle and Amanda : Twiggy says the photograph is wonderful. Tyra tells Amanda that they way the light was hitting her face made her mouth and chin look swollen and she has to learn to use the light in the right way. Anchal : Nigel says she looks beautiful, even though she doesn't look like a giant lady. Miss J says that if he had been portraying a giant lady, he would have brought himself more toward the camera, which would have made the table, etc. appear even smaller. Jaeda : Twiggy loves it. Atoosa says the only problem she had was that during the photo shoot, Jay had to take too much time coaching Jaeda that he wasn't able to direct. Melrose : Nigel says there is something strangely disturbing about the picture, and he likes it. Tyra says that even though she was portraying an aging face, she still forced herself through the makeup. Megg : Twiggy says that the picture looked as though she was waiting for the photo shoot to begin. Nigel asks Megg what is wrong because she seems a little bit down. Megg begins to cry a bit through her smile. After a bit, she says that she is just really disappointed in herself because she knows she can do so much better that what the photo showed. Nigel tells her that when you are doing a photo shoot where something is taking away a part of your beauty, you have to rely on the rest of yourself to make up for it. He says that she shouldn't lose faith, that she should just practice. Tyra says that she was portraying a bearded lady, and the bearded lady probably was a very unhappy person being in the circus so you need to put that in your story .. in your picture. Caridee : Miss J says that he loves the way she is straddling the car. Twiggy says it's just lovely. Tyra says that she just would have liked to have the light catch the elephant nose a little more. Judge's Deliberations Melrose : Miss J says he loves her and Tyra says she chose Melrose to have the old face because she knew she could handle it. Brooke : Twiggy says she still hasn't seen a really great photo of her face. Eugena : Atoosa says she was pretty dead in her eyes for the bulk of the shoot. A.J. : Nigel says that she really managed to bring the model into the picture. Probably the only girl that really did that in the photo shoot. Megg : Twiggy says the picture is disastrous. Atoosa really likes her. Nigel says that if you can't take a good picture, then what good is it. Amanda and Michelle : Nigel says he feels Michelle is the better of the two. Twiggy likes the quirkiness of Amanda. Anchal : Twiggy says she is beautiful but her personality is boring. Caridee : Twiggy feels she had the best picture of the shoot and Atoosa says that she had one amazing pose after another during the shoot. Jaeda : Atoosa says that you have to push her too much. Twiggy says that sometimes Jaeda looks a bit too masculine for her and she actually finds her abs quite scary. Tyra tells Twiggy the abs were drawn on, much to Twiggy's shock and relief !! The Elimination Tyra announces the girl's that will remain in the competition. Caridee Eugena A.J. Melrose Michelle Anchal Amanda Brooke The final two are Jaeda and Megg. Tyra to Megg :** you having this rock on personality but it doesn't translate into your pictures. Tyra to Jaeda : now that you have short hair, your personality has changed and you act as though you are no longer the pretty girl in school. Tyra says that both girls have the goods, but they are not bringing it to the table. Tyra announces the last girl. Jaeda. Megg is eliminated Megg thanks Tyra for the opportunity and begins crying. This brings the rest of the girls to tears as well. Megg says it's really hard to say goodbye. She made it so far, and although she didn't win, she won the experience and that's good enough for her. Next time on ANTM : she's bAAAAAaaaack !! Janice Dickinson that is. Now THAT should be interesting !!
