Top Model

In this episode, the twelve remaining contestants received makeovers. Some were dramatic, such as Jade’s short blond cut, Nnenna being shaved bald and Furonda’s long weave. During the makeover process, Jay spoke with each of the girls to establish a name for their individual style, which they later had to attempt to embody in a clothing challenge. Nnenna won her second challenge for her interpretation of the “new African queen”, and once again chose Jade and Gina to accompany her for a $5000 shopping spree at Nanette Lepore.

Jade caused some tension in the house when she got agitated because Wendy took a very long time on the phone, and stated her infamous phrase, “This is America’s Next Top Model, not America’s Next Top Best Friend!”

For the photo shoot, the girls posed with ice sculptures. Though Jade made a poor impression with the judges with her excuses and took a poor photograph, Wendy, whose family had been affected by Hurricane Katrina, was sent home due to her inability to transfer her modeling potential to photographs.

The fairytales

Brooke- The emperor

Danielle- Snow White

Gina- Sleeping Beauty

Jade- Little red riding hood

Joanie- Cinderella

Kari- Goldilocks

Leslie- The big bad wolf

Mollie- sue- Little boy blue

Nnenna- The frog princess

Sara- Gretel

Gina and Kari landed in the bottom two. The judges said Gina seems very uncomfortable with her own body, that she lacks the confidence she needs to get by as a model - while Kari simply does not enbody a model in person or at photoshoots. They sent Kari home.
