"Welcome to New Zealand"

On tonight's episode of America's Next Top Model the competition is getting fierce as the remaining six girls travel halfway around the world to battle it out for the grand prize.

Once they land, the girls are taken to a picturesque hill over looking the city and have opportunity to witness a traditional Mayuri welcome performance. After a twenty-two hour flight the girls have frizzy hair, bare faces and are dressed in the same clothes they had on yesterday. Jet lag and all they are going directly on go sees. The girls work to navigate through the city and wow the designers. But the girls all have the same strategy and head to the same designer in the same order. So many of the girls ended up waiting their turn.

And as always on go sees, it was a struggle for the girls to get back on time. Alasia, Raina and Krista are late and therefore disqualified. Angelea booked all six go sees and wins the challenge. As a prize, she receives fashions from all the designers. That night, the girls go to their stunning new house- a two-story penthouse suite with views of the entire city.

The next morning the girls receive a Tyra Mail that reads "All we need is one, the rest is just fluff." The girls arrive at a beautiful hilly valley with sheep grazing all around. They will be posing with the sheep. And to make things even more difficult, they will all be wearing the same dress and will be challenged to stand out among the rest of the girls.

The next day the girls meet with the judges. Here are the judges' evaluations:

Alexandra -incorporated her critiques into her photo shoot and she really brought her fire back, she had a multitude of different shots, she was very committed to every pose

Jessica- wasn't really feeling the environment. She was posing well but she wasn't committed in her face

Alasia- looked beautiful but she was lost, she didn't give enough variety, photographer was not inspired

Raina- captured every shot beautifully, the judges loved her photo and thought it told a story

Angelea- thought about the technical things too much and got confused, the judges least favorite picture of her

Krista- really brought it again this week. She was very impressive and focused, she was magical on set, really rocked the dress

Best photo of the week goes to Krista for the second week in a row. Second runner-up is Alexandra. Next is Raina then Angelea. Jessica and Alasia are in the bottom two.

The judges feel Alasia has so much potential but she lacks the focus to take a great picture. Jessica is a beautiful girl, but her face is not selling it as a high fashion model. Jessica stays so it is Alasia who goes all the way back home to America.

Until next week. Pose... Strike It.
