ANTS: Homely Girls Make Good Models
As a feminist, I find America's Next Top Model so appalling.
ARGH! But I like it so much!
It's so facinating. The show began with 14 rather plain girls. Sure, they all weigh 118 pounds, but they don't all have perfect bodies and some of them are actually pretty homely. But when the makeup artists get their hands on them and the camera starts whirring, they turn into beauties. It kind of pulls the curtain back on the beauty industry and shows us everyday girls that models aren't perfect, either.
I'm rooting for Michelle. At first I thought she was homely. But she photographs so beautifully. I think she's a long shot to win, but she's got my vote!
I also like Brittany and Keenyah. And you gotta root for the hometown girl, Rebecca, although I think she's a little more Sears model and a little less haute couture.
