Anyway, watched Golden Compass with Adam and Sarah. Sham had to leave early. The movie is amazingly boring. I don't know why people are boycotting the film because of its atheism undertone. Honestly, they should boycott the film because it's so lousy. I didn't even understand what was going on. It was like, Star Wars meets Narnia. The funny and kind of stupid part was when Nicole Kidman told the Golden Compass girl (who we were told from the start that she was an orphan) that she was actually her mother, and that her uncle (James Bond) was her father. I was like, "WHAT THE HAY-ELL!!". And there was this really cheesy scene where they were gonna kill the Golden Girl and Nicole Kidman entered the room and suddenly ran to save her and it was all in slo-mo. Seriously, no slo-mos in fantasy films. Please. And there was this bear who's an alcoholic. 'Nuff said. The ending was really stupid. They're trying to brainwash us to watch the next installment to find out what happens. Don't watch it!!
So watched season finale of ANTM 9. SPOILER ALERT!!!!!!!
So I'll give a synopsis of what happens.
Final three are Jenah, Saleisha and Chantal. They have the usual Covergirl commercial. Chantal rocks it. And I kind of love her now despite the fact that she's that really really bubbly person you just feel like punching their face to see how they'll react to something so horrible. Saleisha is ugly as hell in the commercial because she looks really emaciated. Jenah kind of sucks at first but was kind of cute in the end. But the judges kind of hate Jenah because the memo says that Saleisha's gonna win so they had to kick her out because her photos are awesome, so they gave her a hard time at panel. Tyra said that Jenah was making fun of Covergirl ala Jael. Then Jenah says that she doesn't have to be "spewing rainbows" to be a role model. That is totally true. She's everything Saleisha and Chantal aren't. Then Tyra goes to Oprah mode and wonders if it's because she's been hurt before and so Jenah cries because she's been through some tough times and Tyra's all like, "See, see, see!!!!! I KNEW IT!!! I KNEW THAT SOMETHING WAS GOING ON ABOUT YOU!!!! REMEMBER THAT TIME AT THE GREAT WALL AND YOU WANTED TO LOOK OVER THE WALL TO FIND THE REAL JENAH?!!! WELL, YOU FOUND IT!!!! AND IT'S BECAUSE I HELPED YOU LIFT YOU UP!!!!! IT'S ME, TYRA BANKS!!!! BECAUSE I'M A GREAT TALK SHOW HOST!!! REALLY!!!!! PS: NAOMI CAMPBELL SUXXX!!!!"
So in the end Jenah and Saleisha are in the bottom two and Jenah gets kicked out even though "Tyra helped her found herself". And, really? I mean, she just cried and broke down a bit. But then Tyra actually said something that is the truth. She said that Jenah has the best photos that can compete among the supermodels. Then they kicked her because once again, the memo mentioned that the winner must be black. Read: Saleisha.
Runway show. Chantal's train caused a person on stilts to fall. She kind of lost focus. Honestly, Saleisha rocked the runway despite her ugly hair. She wins. The whole world groans. Totally felt bad for Chantal because she's like, crying throughout the episode and in the interviews and keeps on saying that it's her destiny.
Overall, it's been a great season in the beginning, but then they were keeping the lousy girls (Bianca and Saleisha). So here's a summary on what I hated about ANTM 9:
10 Things I Hate About ANTM 9
10. No Smoking Rule
Tyra obviously wanted the smokers to go crazy while they're cold turkey-ing.
9. Nigel And His Biased Penis
Stupid Nigel was the photographer during one of the photoshoots and mentioned that Saleisha looks like a Chinese empress. That is an insult to all empresses in China. That girl looked like Dora The Explorer in a cheongsam.
8. Lisa's Downfall
I really liked her in the beginning (she was the Alicia Keys-lookalike "exotic dancer") but then they made her hair like a poodle, then they bashed her for no reason, then they kicked her for no reason.
7. Girls Teasing Heather
Mainly Bianca and Saleisha were teasing Heather. It was so frustrating!!!! And really, Tyra sucks because she praised Saleisha for being a good role-model and bashed Jenah even though Jenah wasn't teasing her. Urgh!!
6. Judges Breaking Ebony's Spirit
Oh Ebony. The American Beauty girl who wanted to kill her dad. Tyra hated her because she didn't want to pursue on and didn't want to go further than a girl who wanted it more than her. Stupid Tyra. And they were making fun of her throughout the competition.
5. Eliminating Heather During The Go-See Episode
I totally called for it during the first episode. And they did it! ANTM is a joke, but somehow I love it to death. Poor Heather. She only went to one go-see and spent the entire time walking around.
4. Bianca
Bianca, you are a mean person. You are not a bitch, but you are a mean person. She wasn't entertaining nor did she take great photos. At least Jade took great photos. You are not fit to shine her shoes.
3. Ugly Makeovers
This season was filled with ugly makeover. They shaved Bianca's hair off and she totally looked horrible. Jenah's ugly weave that had the colour of "pee-on-snow" and had the texture of dried straw. And the worst is Saleisha's. It's by far the worst makeover in history. She looked a thousand times better before the makeover.
2. Jenah's "Epiphany"
This was the finale epiphany about how Typrah Winbanks managed to open up who Jenah is because, once you cry, your shell is opened up. It's really stupid, really.
1. The Winner
Yucks! Second worst winner! Naima was the worst. Firstly, Saleisha didn't have a single photo that really powed me. The only great shot was her rock-climbing and Great Wall shot. The rest sucked eggs and made her look like a child prostitute or a grown-up trying to act like a little kid. On the contrary, Jenah's photos were amazing!!! When they were having the loser's montage on her, all the shots were really amazing except for her finale shot, because she looked horrible. The first Covergirl shot was really great.
Twiggy's leaving!!! Let's hope Janice returns!!!
