Cycle 1 - Yet Another Bikini Shooting

Welcome back y'all, to another Week of ANTM Cycle 1. This Cycle is actually quite a bore when it comes to photoshoots, like 2/3rds of them contain some sort of lingerie or no clothes at all, and many are just yawn-worthy and mediocre. Like this one, which was a shooting for Stuff Magazine. It's one of the rare occasions where I don't really care for any shot that came out of it. But let's see....

1. Elyse

Gotta give her props for working this sexy shoot, when she failed at it miserably the week prior to this one. She looks pretty damn hot here, and I like the bend in the body.

2. Giselle

This is another good shot for Miss Ginselle, her body looks phenomenal. It does look a teeny tiny bit forced all in all, but it's not offensively bad, like the majority of these photos are.

3. Shannon

Thank god that her photo last week was just a fluke, this is really pretty. That's all I have to say about it though.

4. Ebony

The body looks too manly again for my taste, but she's the only girl to really show some emotion in her face, and therefore she deserves some brownie points. The smile is really gorgeous.

5. Katie

So, Katie was sent home for this shot because the judges thought she looked too sexy, like an FHM girl or somebody along those lines. I call bullshit, because when you want the girls to show versatility, don't do the exact same kind of shooting two times in a row. This photo isn't really good, but it's mediocre enough to keep her around.

6. Adrianne

I love her body here, but she looks just all kinds of stupid in the face. But it still gets worse, watch out!

7. Kesse

What a major step down from last week's kickass photo! Here, Kesse looks all kinds of confused and "amIdoingthisrite?". She got a bottom two for this photo, which I can understand.

8. Nicole

Her body is arguably among the best of this cycle, but this is the first time where you can see how unattractively her face can photograph at times. The snarl doesn't work here at all, and it only accentuates her draggalicious features in all the wrong ways. But wait! I got one more...

9. Robyn

Holy mother of all that is good and pure, save me! She looks like she's 50, again. On top of that she looks bored out of her mind. It's not as offensive as some other photos this week, but here I can't really say that the face redeems the body or the other way around. Second bad photo in a row, well done Miss Thang!

I'm in a bloggy mood tonight, so expect more to be up within the hour :-)
