Who do you think is in the green costume?

All the girls seem to struggle with this a bit. I can see Analeigh having a strong commercial and Elina and Marjorie having terrible ones. What about you?

“I am really pushing for a plus-size model this series because I am a big believer in healthy body types and encouraging girls to be the right body type,” Sarah told The Daily Telegraph. “It’s not about getting an overweight girl but someone who is healthy because one size doesn’t fit all.”

Having plus-sized contestants is one area where the American incarnation is leaps and bounds ahead of international versions. Tyra has included plus-sized contestants on almost every cycle of ANTM.

Note to Canadians: ANTM will air tomorrow on the A-Channel at 9pm. I hate this change too.

Miss the episode? Read the recap here.

In this clip, Marjorie reveals who she wants to take to the top three with her. She’s really upset by what the other girls said about her and how they don’t understand her. Her choices for top three are quite surprising!

More bonus clips below the jump!

Here’s Clark after being eliminated. She talks about her future in modeling and how she’s confident she will have a long and successful career. Se’s sounds really broken up, but is quite poised and graceful about leaving.

Here, Lauren Brie reads Clark’s goodbye letter to the other girls. Her letter reiterates a lot of the stuff she mentioned in her interview. If you remember, she didn’t write anything to Sheena in the letter, but it looks as though that goes unnoticed.

In this clip, Marjorie tries to give Analeigh a pep talk. The rest of the girls are bathing outside and debate as to whether Analeigh will make it abroad. No one seems to have any faith in Analeigh, not even herself. She’s really stepped up her game the past few episodes so people should start taking her seriously.

Here, several of the girls talk about the photo shoot and how they think they all did. Elina found the shoot therapeutic and Sheena loved the experience, but Elina is a bit concerned about just how much she let go during the shoot.

Here is Sheena talking about her plans for the rest of the competition. She’s really vulnerable in this interview. Sheena expects a lot from herself and thinks she will go far. I love Sheena, she’s optimistic and confident but knows she needs to work hard to get there.

In this clip, Samantha reveals just why she doesn’t like Marjorie that much. The answer is surprising; it’s not that Marjorie is a bundle of insecure nerves, as Sam often points out. Sam feels Marjorie rolls her eyes too much and makes her feel stupid.

Marjorie is pulling for Analeigh is is trying to coach her for her shoot in the clip below. Analeigh doesn’t feel very model-y and is worried that this will affect her shoot. I can’t get over how terrible Marjorie’s posture is in this clip!

Here, Elina talks about how difficult and emotional that shoot was for her, but at the same time freed and elated her. I think this photo shoot was an important moment for Elina. It’s going to be interesting to see where she goes from here.

Nigel will play himself, and based on the preview photos, he’s hired to shoot the Baker family portrait!

Has anyone been watching Privileged? Is it any good?

At each location, the Js will select five lucky ladies who will receive “Top Model style overhauls” and will learn everything from how to dress, how to talk, how to walk and more. It sounds a lot like beauty school.

CW has only approved a pilot, but it seems like Operation Fabulous will fit in well with ANTM and CW’s new reality show Stylista.

The only downside to this concept is that if we are introduced to five new girls every episode, it’s going to be hard to relate to and grow with the girls as they become fabulous. The success of this show entirely hinges on the Js.

The makeovers this cycle were pretty tame. Samantha had the worst breakdown of all, and it was nearly nothing! I miss Catie, Jaeda, and Cassandra!

I wonder what else they are going to show in the recap episode! I hope they show more of the Hannah confrontation and more of Elina’s crush on Clark.

I always find these recap episodes disappointing. I wish they did more of a reunion-style episode, like Project Runway, where they bring the girls back before the final 2 or 3 to rehash what happens on the show and look at clips and ask questions. To me, it’s far too early in the season to care about flashbacks just yet. Some girls are still getting little to no screen time!
