Is there any blog with before/after make over pics? or the ANTM site, maybe. I'll check there.

And, for your amusement, I'm reading a tacky sf/romance book set in the future and someone plans to watch the 30-something season of So You Think You Can Dance.

Is it any good? Sounds like my kind of genre. ;)

I came back to ANTM for the mens and I have been severely disappointed. The male judge is still the best man candy on the show. And the one bearded dude they made over into Jesus Christ Superstar is ridonk! On the plus side, Tyra's weaves have just gone into full on crazy lady mode. (Are they even weaves anymore? I think she may just be all the way into sporting wigs now) Also, I do enjoy that Kelly Cutrone is such a bitch. Hate the social media angle, and as usual, none of these kids could actually be Top Models, but that's as it always was. At least I can keep up with it since it seems like the CW is airing it 3-4 times each week.

Hah--I liked bearded dude because he seemed to be taking it about as seriously as he should. But I haven't seen the makeover episode yet, possibly it's a travesty. The one dude who is all about his dad being a janitor makes me think of a vampire. Or how the fug girls always used to call Marc Anthony a vampire.

Oh my god, Lil' Rico Suave is the worst in the most hilarious way possible. He is so not attractive on any level. Totally a ghoul a la the former Mr. JLo. I don't know if I've ever told the story here, but the first time I really paid attention to Marc Anthony as a person was when he did a duet en espanol with JLo No Me Ames back in like 1999. This was way before Marc had even thought about leaving Miss Universo and JLo was still slumming with the likes of Ojani Noa. Anyway, the song is all about how this woman shouldn't fall in love with some dude because he's bad for her but gosh darn it, she just can't help it and the storyline in the video is that the dude is dying. So, I saw the video and I thought the storyline was that JLo was falling in love with this guy who had full blown AIDS and I also thought that she had hired a real AIDS patient to star in the video with her and I was like, "Wow. That's kind of brave because Latino culture is kinda macho and AIDS is thought of as a gay disease and she's challenging all these cultural norms and she also found this AIDS patient willing to be in the video with her. So nice." And I lived with this idea for many, many years until JLo had this show on MTV about dancers called Dance Life (which was ah-mazing!) and I was watching it one day with my friend Brandeis and I saw JLo on the show and sitting with her was this little man who looked like a ghoul and then I realized that it was the AIDS patient from her video and so I exclaimed to Brandeis that I couldn't believe that the dude was still alive and also that JLo had just adopted him and made him a part of her entourage. And then she laughed at me and disabused me of that notion and it was quite the mirthful scene but also sad because damn . . . Marc Anthony is busted. All that to say that Lil' Rico Suave is similarly looks challenged and I cannot understand why the judges are all on his jock.

ETA: Oh my gawd, y'all! 5 posts long. That is ridonk. So sorry.

Do not ever apologize. Sometimes I like your recaps better than the show.

I voting with Vortex!

Awww, y'all are so sweet. Not that I need much encouragement.

Kat, I was seriously looking at my next trip to LA (in LA tuesday, I have to be in San Diego that Wednesday) going "hmmm, that might be finale week. Maybe I could go watch with Kat and drive to San Diego after? It might be worth it!" ;)

Do eeeeettt! Well, except for how you might be really tired afterward to drive two hours, in which case, you know, don't do it. But my heart is saying, Do EEEETTT!
