Because books.

I will say that Christina's boobs are extremely distracting, though.

christina has way too much meat hanging out.

I would love to get her a whole new wardrobe.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Agree that this week's Voice was love! My promoter buddy has worked with the eyeliner broadway guy. I do love a guy in eyeliner.

But yeah, overall, there were some great voices.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I realize I don't love the kind of female voice that Blake really goes for, but I love his love of his girls so much, it makes up for it.

Punishingly Intricate

Ugh! How does Kenley keep getting in the top? That dress was a) exactly like everything else she's made and b) HIDEOUS! And her voice is just so grating.

Oh and Jerrel's outfit was truly awful. What the hell?

They really were all pretty bad this time.

Art Crawl!!!

Ooh, I will look forward to the trainwreck. (Haven't watched the episode yet.)

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I liked Jerrel's outfit before he draped the green over it. And I really disliked Kenley's. I understand the criticism of Mila's. Isaac Mizrahi (I feel like I have to use his full name for some reason) was not wrong with that communism comment, but I guess I find that appealing. Out of the context of the challenge, I quite like it.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

I'm watching now, and if I were on the judges panel I would have made them all go back and redo this challenge. I really can't remember a challenge where everyone has failed this badly.

Mondo's dress was probably the least offensive, but eh, black sheath, yawn.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

So, the Voice! No one ended up getting second chances this time, huh? So next up is winnowing within the teams themselves? There are definitely some loser fodder entrants in those teams, but I am anxious to see what happens next.
