--Q.M.
I have not even heard of this show.
Is it like one of these 'reality shows', where the contestants all
talk to each other? You say that someone was voted off, and it reminds
me of that other show, which I also did not watch...
Maybe some of us could come up with our own show? We just need an
interesting topic, and some way to get a bunch of folks together, and
one by one they are taken out. Hm, maybe we could mimic that plane
crash in the Andes in the early 1970s, when there were survivors
stranded on a cold mountain, and they got to know each other. As the
food ran out and more perished, they came up with more and more
interesting ways to stay alive. This sounds like a winning show for
these days in television-land. All we need are some vounteers and a
few plane tickets.....

both so unusual. Elyse is a waify militant atheist, pre-med, with
spiky dyed-black hair and big pale eyes. She looks a bit like Enya or
Winona Ryder on a starvation diet. Ebony is a bald muscular black
lesbian from New York City with big dark eyes - think Grace Jones but
more fun. Both of these two get a lot of interview time, maybe
because they're unusual personally, &/or have strong personalities, or
maybe because they're probably the two most unusual looking. This
week, they both went on rants that didn't make them seem quite as
nice, but were highly entertaining. But I'd say now I also like
Adrienne. Adrienne is a smoker, smoker-voiced bad girl, who looks
like she belongs in those ads where they're all partying with heavy
mascara smudges under their eyes. She was annoying Elyse by
continually quoting Jay and Silent Bob.

> Fourth I'd put Giselle, who seems bubbly and I like the fact that
she has this mole on her nose. Robin is completely annoying, but I
like that she's a "plus size" (yeah, right! Not an ounce of fat I can
see - it all looks like muscle - she looks like the average woman with
a good body) and "old" (26!), and she does have a certain spark when
she is modelling - even though I can't stand her otherwise. Robin,
Kesse and (I think) Shannon have a Bible study group going in the
hotel suite, and Robin is a preacher type, who this week was baiting
both Elyse and Ebony over different things. I think I know which
California Blonde (not that they're actually from here, they just have
that look) is which - I think the curly-haired one with the horse
teeth who's a Christian virgin is Shannon, and that the
straight-haired one is Nicole (I remember nothing else about Nicole,
but she may be the one who, next week, it's hinted, doesn't want to do
the photo shoot with snakes). Kesse (spelling?) looks sort of
pinch-faced to me, but not in her posed photos. I suppose the high
forehead, features all together look works for Christina Ricci, but
Christina's more interesting looking, in my opinion - though the
comment was made by more than one person on the show that they thought
Kesse looked like Tyra Banks, who is the host.

112; Robin is the heaviest at 165. The rest mostly weigh in the lower
130s. Elyse and Adrienne are light-eyed brunettes, Shannon and Nicole
are golden blondes, Ebony, Kesse and Robin are black, and Giselle (and
Katie, before last night) are Hispanic, I think.

semi-finalists who didn't make the "come to New York" cut, the
standouts in my mind were the dirt-poor black girl who I felt bad for
(like she and her 4-5 siblings were neglected and raised in foster
care type poor!), and one horribly annoying bleach-platinum-blonde
with dark eyes who insisted she knew she was better than all the other
girls, and that her mother called her every day to tell her how much
better she was than the rest of the world.
