Jai Posted August 5, 2021 Posted August 5, 2021 I can genuinely say I love what everyone brought. Regardless of the outcome I can stand by what Linda and I presented. Story not the bling!
dweebz Posted August 5, 2021 Author Posted August 5, 2021 (edited) Judge: Miley Team Pride I enjoy the story, this episode’s assignment was a difficult one because not only did you have to find a photo matching the sin of your choice, you also had to make it correlate with your partners. And you sort of did that in an interesting way. They are not as in sync as I would have liked, but they do tell a cohesive story, so Im happy. Beautiful explanation of pride I must say. Coco Rocha @Zolvnski She’s a prideful bitch, she knows it, and its rightfully so! Coco, this is conceptually a perfect photo. The brilliant way you explained how she is in her vanity with her reflection all around her as she is admiring herself. Ugh, just brilliant Coco. Brandi Quinones @mokitsu Now this photo is… well, not as good as the former but for what it is, Pride in Hubris, it gets the job done…-ish. The story is meh at best. Truthfully, Pride in Hubris is a stretch, but for the constraints you had, it was pretty good. Team Envy Cohesively this is a strong entry. The fact that both of them are in greyscale adds to that dark sin feel I wanted you to go for. I can see a whole movie in my mind between the two photos meaning, well, you did what needed to be done. Anna totally steals this photo though. Anna Cleveland @PlERRE Miss Anna Cleveland, if this were an individual photo challenge, you would have been my #1 photo. Without a doubt. Envy is in your veins (probably because you haven’t gotten a win yet). Congrats on this find because this is gorgeous. The face is serving “Im envious because I look like this.” Karlie Kloss @Thanatos Im not super crazy about this photo personally. But it does justice well to Envy. What it is is a great compliment to Anna’s phenomenal photo. Team Gluttony For not having any sort of description or story you two lucked out on having such a cohesive submission. It actually puts other teams to shame that your photos told the story and none had to be fabricated. I do wish you could have put us into your world. But nonetheless, I think it was a risk that paid off. Naomi Campbell @Dolce Vita Naomi really said “**** all the starving kids, Im doing this photoshoot” And hey, it was worth it. Its gluttony, its just not very interesting is the issue. Katy Perry @Heldenzeit Come on ad placement! I do enjoy this photo more than Naomi’s because there’s some sort of action taking place. The shoes are atrocious though, but for gluttony, its interesting and I see it. Team Lust Well, it was an attempt. Two different photos telling two different stories. And both of them aren’t even lust… to me at least. Ebonee, when you saw Gaga’s choice you should have had your reservations. I don’t know you two. Ebonee Davis @Not Like The Movies Is this… Is this the sweetheart that is Ebonee Davis. I- Erm, ok, come through peachy bitch! I think you said it best, “tantalizing” and that is exactly what lust is. This is a sexy way to do it that is a bit riské. My one this is that… girl, you look… juvenile. Lady Gaga @Young In Love Gaga… I don’t see lust anywhere in this photo. Im sorry. I hate to say it but, girl. You are definitely the weak link in this. Which is sad because I think your fantasy shot exudes more lust than this. Team Anger Team Anger is serving frustration with a side of comedy. Having anger in black and white is a choice in the first place. Girls, Im so sorry, I laughed. I really did. This is like watching ANTM and you just know that group done flopped the **** out of the assignment. Liu Wen @Jai Anger has such a strong feeling to it, but that’s not what I got with this photo. Its more anguish than anything. And because anger is one of the easier sins, it makes this that much more disappointing. Linda Evangelista @Taylucifer Girl, you saw this picture and said “Yes, this is anger!” Ma’am, you look sadder than anything. And with the story, its only serving comedy. Team Greed The story is… a reach. But the issue is, you didn’t even try to make the reach make sense. Help me connect the dots! Where are the emotions to read anyways. Daria Werbowy @Feather Greed? I think not. I don’t know if it was a lack of material or something but the story could have saved it… but there is none. Kaia Gerber @Vignesh Ma’am, you look like a drug dealer more than anything. Where is the greed? Team Sloth First of all, you guys have the best description and the most cohesive photos. The photos are not as grand as others but this is just so brilliant! You two really did understand the assignment and… ugh! Team Sloth came through! The description reads like a song and ugh, when I saw these photos and read the description I gasped and then smiled. Florence Welch @Littlejfrey Miss Florence, the gag is you “Sex Sells” photo was serving sloth too. But ugh, you did the damn thing with this photo. Amazing job. I can see the collaboration between the two of you. Tessa Thompson @TruGemini Tessa, this is the best photo you’ve submitted thus far. Girl I wrote you off around episode 3 but this is just… **** you did THAT! Fix the mug but girl sloth is she! Edited August 5, 2021 by dweebz
TruGemini Posted August 5, 2021 Posted August 5, 2021 Producer: Round seven, the seven deadly sins! How did you feel when you first heard this was the theme? Tessa Thompson: I honestly was a tad nervous, I remember seeing this theme last cycle and how everyone brought it. It's hard to follow up such an iconic set prior! Producer: In a bit of a controversial decision, this round was completed in teams. How did you feel about that twist? Tessa Thompson: Well I know some were a little knackered by it but I personally love collaborative efforts, so I never had an issue with it personally. Producer: In a partner, you found Florence, how was it working with her? Tessa Thompson: Absolutely wonderful, she is so lovely and working with her was a breeze. We came up with our concept and completed it very quickly. I could not have asked for a better partner. Producer: As far as the sloth theme and your entries, can you walk us through a bit more? Tessa Thompson: So we essentially wanted to go the idea that sloth is less of laziness, but exertion. The story was a bit tongue and cheek, referencing the competition and how draining it has been, and our photos being the aftermath of how tired we are as party girls who genuinely just are here to have fun. Producer: Now that you've had an opportunity to see all the entries, any standouts, good or bad? Tessa Thompson: I think my favorite team was Greed. I really appreciated the juxtaposition that they portrayed in their entries and think it was very solid through and through. I really enjoyed the storyline that the Anger and Pride teams presented. I don't think anyone nessecarily did poorly, however, I was slightly dissapointed in the Gluttony team, with them being such standout figures in the competition, I did expect something less blatant.
dweebz Posted August 5, 2021 Author Posted August 5, 2021 Overall, this is my favorite theme because of the creativity and constraint. I was pleased with what you all sent. The competition is just getting tougher.
Jai Posted August 5, 2021 Posted August 5, 2021 the lashings however I totally get it where Miley is coming from
Not Like The Movies Posted August 5, 2021 Posted August 5, 2021 Thank you for my lust photo critique. However, im a bit annoyed with the nitpicking of the 'storyline' for the photos as there was not anything mentioned about a storyline when the challenge was posted, all your post said was to add a description of the photos if we wanted to thus, I find it a bit unfair to be judged by that when we were never told to make the description to be a storyline or cohesive.
Littlejfrey Posted August 5, 2021 Posted August 5, 2021 Finally we are not getting panned reviews with my girl Tessa we did it party girl

Can we just skip episode 8 like it never happened. We need a round 8.5
mokitsu Posted August 5, 2021 Posted August 5, 2021 They eat her up every single time she's on that damn stage! She gives ****. She could walk out there in a ****ing diaper and they're like: [REDACTED]! Your smile is beautiful!

Feather Posted August 5, 2021 Posted August 5, 2021 I can’t at my picture of GREED turning into the 8th deadly sins (SORROW) as I pack my bags and get ready for elimination tonight
ZORBIT Posted August 5, 2021 Posted August 5, 2021 I guess Ms Hoest couldn’t have been more blunt with the blatant update the day after the theme was dropped so the fumes are justified. Someone couldn’t Stop, Drop 'n' Tooch properly Thank you for my group praise and acclaim for my photo as well Miley
Feather Posted August 5, 2021 Posted August 5, 2021 Daria weeps in the elimination room and pleads with the other girls to spare her some sympathy votes. “I understand I haven’t been the most outstanding performing model this season, however I encourage you all to keep me in the game as I will benefit you in the long run. There are much bigger threats in this competition like Naomi and Brandi who has never appeared on the bottom, Karlie who has won best photo twice, where I have been scraping by week by week. Please look at the game long term and make the best decision possible. I will do whatever it takes to stay another week and will also give you guys my vote for best and worst photos to whomever decides to protect me this week. I know this is ATRL’s Next Top Model but at the end of the day, this is not just a competition but a game. I will respect everyone’s decision no matter what but I hope you all choose to let me live another week.”
