PYRAMID CEREMONYElle: Hello ladies and welcome back to the judging room. It is now time to see how well you did this week. This week we had a huge opportunity with Bvlgari Eyewear. I wanted to see high fashion elegance this week. This week we have a slight change to the pyramid structure as we now have five girls on the bottom, then four, then two, and one girl on top. The first girl on the bottom row is...
Jaslene. The major reason why you are in this position is because you did not follow directions. I specifically said that this was a beauty shoot and you gave two shots that were not even close to beauty shots. I chose this one because it looked more like Bvlgari. You look beautiful and tall, but with so much going on, it really takes away from the sunglasses. The next girl on the bottom row of the pyramid is...
Lisa. You also struggled with the brief, Lisa. This was the closest we got to a beauty shot with you. I guess I would consider this a beauty shot, but it's pushing it. On top of that, it's not 100% Bvlgari. It's a little edgier than I wanted and to me it looks like you're selling the bracelets more than the glasses by putting your arms like that. The next girl on the bottom of the pyramid is...
Annabella. I'm shocked to see you down here. You have such a high class look, but you struggled this week. It wasn't smart to go full profile because you're trying to sell glasses and you lose a big chunk of them by doing this. You look beautiful, but I don't see an ad in this shot because of the big disconnect with the camera. The next girl on the bottom of the pyramid is...
Denisa. The issue I had with you this week is that you were boring. This shot is a good photo, but to me it just really does not stand out. You really aren't doing anything here. There needs to be something behind the glasses that comes through. You need some sort of expression. You can't just hide behind the beautiful glasses. The last girl on the bottom of the pyramid is...
Lindsey. This shot is so strong. Then why are you on the bottom row? It's because you were late for the shoot. When you're a supermodel, being late isn't a huge issue, but when you're just trying to break into the industry, being late says that you're a diva and people will not want to work with you. The shot is stunning and you sell the glasses so well, but being late really cost you this week.The next girl on the pyramid is safe and is the first girl on the second row...
Alana. It's a beautiful shot, Alana. It shows me that you might actually be able to do beauty work because after last week, I had my doubts. I think the glasses look great and I love the wind in the hair. I do think that overall, the shot is very stiff. The neck is extended and long, but it looks strained the whole shot just comes off stiff as a board. The next girl on the second row is...
Anais. This is a great shot, Anais. I really like it. First off, it's nice to see someone where regular glasses as opposed to sunglasses. It's a little risky because with sunglasses, you can usually get away with not doing as much, but you took the challenge of regular eye glasses. There's a beautiful softness and in your face and I really like your neck extension. Thanks Anais. The next girl on row two is...
Josephine. This is a great shot, Josephine. I really love the overall image. I love the tilt back of the head and how delicate your expression is. The hunch is great and you sold those glasses really well. What is killing me is that hair, but I'd have to blame the stylist for that. Also, the jewelry is stealing some of the show from the glasses. Thanks, Josephine. The final girl on this level of the pyramid is...
Imogen. This is soooo much better than last week. Such an improvement, Imogen. Your skin and bone structure look amazing and surprisingly, you gave a little sex appeal. I wasn't expecting that out of you at all! You're selling the glasses and you're really owning the shot. Thanks, Imogen. The first girl of the two girls on the third row is...
Cara. Once again, you did really well this week. I love how this looks like you're on the go. The hair looks great. It is in your face, but you're pushing through it and you look great. You sell the glasses really well as well. Had the shot been a little more refined, it would have fit Bvlgari a little bit better. Thanks, Cara.
Abbey, Maria. You are the top two this week, but only one of you will receive the privilege of nominating two girls for elimination. The girl who just missed getting that top spot is...
Maria. This is such an improvement from last week. After last week, I thought that maybe you'd be a filler girl who would go in the first few weeks, but this week you proved me wrong. I love how you're selling the glasses. The expression is so high end and you sell the glasses amazingly. You probably would have maybe grabbed that top spot had you caught the light a little better. So that means that...
Abbey is on top of the pyramid this week! This shot is so effortless and so beautiful. You're just lounging and giving a luxurious expression and it looks so perfect. You sell the glasses so well. Normally when people bring hands into a shot they tend to look very awkward, but you make it look so natural and relaxed. Amazing job, Abbey. And since you did so great, you've earned the ability to nominate two girls from the bottom row of the pyramid for elimination. Those girls are Jaslene, Lisa, Anabela, Denisa, and Lindsey. I'll give you a few minutes to make your decision.
Yoyoyo, just pm me who you want to nominate with a brief reason.
