The models go to Vegas, and Tyra puts them to work selling whatever branded garbage she's all about this season.

Really liked the Dustin as pestering fly during Devon's confessional.

The Vegas setting still seems like it was just done for budget reasons. Did they drive there? I remember the other long distance seasons showing everyone getting on a super long flight.

I cannot wait for the Devon-Mikey fight they are setting up! Mikey is growing more shitty by the minute (I felt so so bad for Hadassah when she had to kiss him), and while Devon hasn't chilled out hardly at all he at least has acknowledged that his personality can be over the top.

Still predicting Mame and Lacey in the finals, Nyle as the last third. Hope there's a runway challenge soon since it feels like those have been missing this season, at least lately, and those skills end up being valuable at the end.

I don't know why I still watch this show, I really don't. That pool challenge was ridiculous. And the video was garbage. Lacey's open-mouthed pout is starting to get a little old. Why isn't she getting criticism for giving the same face week after week?

Mikey was good in the video but he is such a dicksplash that I hope so much that he doesn't get to the final.

Dustin proved that Stefano should have come back last week.

I don't watch this show anymore, but I love your episode description "The models go to Vegas, and Tyra puts them to work selling whatever branded garbage she's all about this season." so much I'm posting about it.

That was my recap before I even watched. I'm pleased to see it wasn't wrong now that I've actually watched :)

Although, I have to hand it to Tyra- I think she's a genius. If I get it right, this is a makeup line similar to a Mary Kay/Avon setup? Amazing idea. She will make $$$$$$ on top of all the $$$$$ she already has. And maybe it's wrong but I loved the video. That song is an earworm.

I, too, felt bad that Hadassah was made to kiss Mikey, but it seemed like she was into it? Baaaaaaaaaaaarf, gross (I actually said that out loud while watching, and my 3-year old was like, why you say that, mommy?)

Bringing back Dustin was a waste, and I think it did Justin a huge disservice to drop him at the start of an episode. The man took it seriously and performed well, at least give him a proper end-of-episode sendoff.

I love Nyle's interpreter, and wish there was a whole show dedicated to him.

This this this this this. Every season is Tyra growing her brand piece by piece by piece. Even if it's totally ridiculous crap and she makes up 90% of the words she says, I still love it. The American Dream right here, folks.

I hope next cycle there's some kind of election tie-in (a Ty-in, if you will) because obviously the logical next step for this woman is running for public office.

Here's her site! Oh my gosh. And it will only cost you ~$200 to get started plus a $15 monthly fee! She's.. just wow. But I keep watching...

OMG Smack My Fat Lash mascara. She's a genius.

I'm calling it now. This is the worst thing that has ever happened.

I don't think I was fully conscious of how ridiculous her vocabulary was until this season, when my careful attention to Nyle's face (understatement) revealed that he's mostly staring at his interpreter with a puzzled expression whenever she's talking. Imagine.

I wish they showed more of the interpreter trying to sign all of Tyra's weirdness.

No new episode last night!!! I hate that. It's always the nights I'm looking forward to watching.
