OK, I am officially pissed off!
Let me not blame all of the NY Girls, but to whomever acted so ignorantly… you’re really on my bad side now.
Because of YOU the other auditions are not progressing as they should.
Because of YOU call backs will be later, WHICH means the air date will be later!
The Dallas, CHICAGO, and LA auditions are TBD!
I saw the video, and some pictures.
Now come on Why does EVERYBODY want to be a model… face it EVERYBODY can’t!
Just some inside *INFO* —-at the castings, INCLUDING NY the girls that ACTUALLY made it to round 2 were between 5.4 and a half and 5′7 and SLIM!!!!!! (with the few exceptions of SLIM TALLER ladies)
Some of you know that there is NO chance for you to even make it on the show, with your ghetto weaves… let me not go there.
Simply I am upset that this process is going to be prolonged over ignorant individuals chasing false, far-fetched hopes.
And to the ones that are offended, look in the mirror and ask yourself, should you really have been there…?
Sorry, but I had to say it.

Being one of the thousands who stood on line for 8 & 1/2 hours (some more than myself) with a bunch of screaming girls is an event in it’s self. The whole thing was very unorganized. If the auditions say 10am to 3pm, you would think at 3pm they would either announce that they are no longer letting anyone else in OR they will be extending the time. Neither of these things happened. Still hopeful, I decided to stay for another hour and a half. By then the line was barely moving, I decided to leave. Now I know most of you would say “Oh, you loser. Why would you just give up?!” I can completely understand that, but I for one was not wasting my time. Luckily I left before all the chaos began. For all of the girls who took the time to wait as longggg as it took JUST to have the audition shut down is unfair. Things should have definatly been more organized.
Although the auditions were shut down, does not mean dreams should be either. Rumor is, that Tyra will be casting another audition for New York. So keep on keepin’ on ladies!!

I loved the video of all this craziness so much, I blogged about it too: http://squareeyes.blinkx.com/?p=445

I’m really into the fact that it was the 5′7″ crew as opposed to the usual amazons who went nuts. Those li’l ladies are scrappy!

You just know Tyra is going to make this whole thing about HER on her talkshow. It sounds like it was badly organized and that the cops weren’t informed so as to block the street off. The show is probably more to blame though. I hope no one was seriously hurt and if someone started the panic just for the heck of it, I hope they get what’s coming to them. It sounds like a few were arrested that may have been the instigators of everything. As for the C13 itself, I’d like to think that Tyra was going to concentrate on things that a short/petite model could get jobs for but I doubt it. If I see lots of runway training then I’ll know Tyra is clueless. She should have people from the industry involved in the castings and on panel. Actually, this site, http://petitemodelingtips.blogspot.com/ gives a lot of practical/useful info and the woman who maintains the site if a working petite model. She’d have been good to have involved with this cycle.
