July 3, 2009 by Erin Balser
Last week, the girls headed to their international destination – Buenos Aires! They filmed a commercial in Spanish and did a photo shoot at the gorgeous Salt Lakes. What will Buenos Aires bring them this week? find out for yourself below!
Full recap below the jump!
Original Air Date:June 29, 2009
Challenge: Go-sees
Challenge winner: Jade
Photo: Catalogue tango shoot
Guest judge: Jimena Nahon
Called first: Jade
Eliminated: Ashley
The girls read the letter from Viola and Sophie attempts to redeem herself by saying nice things about her. I’m not entirely buying it, but it’s probably only because I can’t stand Sophie. They get some LisaMail and it turns out they’re getting dance lessons! Hopefully Lisa is the teacher – you know she learned some slick moves on Strictly Come Dancing. Sadly, Lisa doesn’t show up but we do learn that the challenge is to dance in front of strangers!
After the dancing, Ashley goes spastic over the fact Mecia got a special video from her fiancee and she didn’t get anything from her kids. It was confusing and kinda weird.
The girls then head to Elite Model Management, where they are going to be evaluated as models. It’s somewhere between an interview and a go see. They also visit Benito Fernandez. Everyone loves Jade the most, it’s amazing how much of a front-runner she is. Sophie gets positive feedback as well, and I’m thinking they’re going to be the top two.
Since they’re at their international destination, it’s not really Top Model without hot boys and alcohol for one night! Their tour guide from their first day in Buenos Aires and his pal came over, and it’s not long before Ashley and the tour guide are sucking face in the pool. Sophie must have been jealous or something, because it was only a matter of seconds before she’s hooking up with tour guide’s friend!
The photo shoot was a tango themed shoot for Catalogue magazine. The best photo will actually appear in the magazine, which is pretty cool. Jade, as always, was brilliant, Sophie was good and Mecia and Ashley were awkward.
At panel, this is shown, as Jade and Sophie are called first and second and Ashley is sent home. Mecia barely scrapes through and I bet she’s going home next.
Just watched the final. I’m not going to give anything away but ARGHHHHHHHHH!!!! SO ANNOYED!! >:(
Have just watched part one and two of th final, hugely disappointed that Jade was not in the final. But really really glad Sophie came second. She had been very bitchy all through the series had bad skin, and her favourite word was AMAZING !! Good luck to Mischa
