by Thea Napolitano
It was pretty cutthroat on America's Next Top Model. Instead of sending one model home, they stepped it up and sent two packing instead! Everyone in the house may be on their own when it comes to winning the competition but sometimes it takes teamwork to win a challenge or get the right photo.
This week, the models had to create a campaign for Emerson women's clothing. They paired up to bring a campaign to life by choosing their own wardrobe, hair and makeup along with creative ideas to capture a random act of modeling while selling Emerson clothing. This challenge definitely showed who lacked teamwork skills and that was Phil. He felt lost from the get go when trying to find an outfit to wear and felt out of place, leading him to act out and throw a rock at a fence. Phil's rock throwing tantrum ended up breaking part of the fence which didn't quite sit well with Kelly Cutrone. We all know it's no fun getting on her bad side, that's for sure!
Challenge aside, there was still a photo shoot to take care of and this time it was an individual shoot at Smashbox studios. The key ingredient in this shoot was the art of nails! Ok guys.. you weren't able to show off your body this time, it's all about the smize on this one. The men and woman got a major manicure showing off their fancy long colorful acrylics.
Everybody seemed to lose focus during the shoot. Nina and Chris clashed the night before in an argument over Chris lashing out for no real reason. Jeremy was lacking focus when Jourdan rudely talked crap about him and Kanani had singing clowns stuck in her head from the prank the boys pulled on her while she was sleeping.
When elimination time came, you could definitely tell who had the spark in their photos and who didn't. The judges felt Jeremy and Kanani lacked emotion in their photos and sent them home.
Americas Next Top Model airs Fridays at 9/8c on The CW.
