[livejournal.com profile] anansie_s Can I ask a favor?

can you press enter after each of teh photos you put on here. It just makes it to difficult to read comments. I got dizzy trying.

And other than being really devastated at Tyra winning (and being called the most intelligent by Merle. really Merle? srsly?) I felt like once Jessica and Pandora went Juju was my only hope. But She came out with some seriously bad makeup and a terrible clothing choice at the end. Actually.. all of them had the WORST choice of clothing for the fnial runway. Wth?

I think that once Bebe won, she had a coach that helped stop her wide eyes and her pulled back lips.. which were the only things that marred her beauty. Perhaps they are working on Tyra now and she will even out.. but I doubt you can take the stupid out. Her lack of knowledge was one of the biggest reasons I couldn't stand her competing. Another reason I felt Tati needed more seasoning. When you have no frame of reference you just always appear 2 steps behind.

I have yet to see the reunion. We were so devastated we just turned the tv off. I'll watch it online later this week.

the last batch of pics are all in a row straight across making the width of the screen 4 times wider than normal.. so scrolling back and forth just to read the comments. ugh. f you hit a hard return or enter key after each pic they should line up vertically isntead of horizontally.

Maybe it is a ethnic/color of skin issue. I never really noticed it until the last runway. She looked.. grey. and ashy. and well.. haggard. I also felt that they often poo-pooed her style choices as being "too ethnic." girl was the only non white/latina/black ethnicity there. if she wants to pull the far east into her clothing style I say she totally can. no one else was doing it. And it suited her. I think that some people see thru their glasses so long they forget there are other colors in the rainbow. Juju was asian, she wanted to do asian inspired clothingware. I find that calling her style "costumey" is actually bordering on saying her ethnicity should have been whitewashed.

sorry this was this only thing I haven't really felt was addressed with all the followups this season. Ongina (love her!) took her camp style into the androg direction with small asian influences.. But Juju took it farther. And she got called out for it. Just as much as it bothered me that pandora was called out for being too campy. There aer many styles of drag.. and of color and ethnicity. We have to remember to include ALL of themin a show like this or it DOES become the next drag supermodel.
