Top Model 2011 – Episode 1

And surprise surprise – the girls have no say in how they will end up – to great despair for some of the girls. It still surprises me that girls participating in Top Model are not prepared for a possible drastic makeover. You are on the road of becoming a top model. Of course there will be changes. So no crocodile tears girls – the hair will grow back.

Well back at the hotel it was time for some relaxing drinks and a chat with the ever beautiful ex-model and hostess Mona Grudt. After a few good advices and getting to know one and other, it was time for beauty sleep.

The next they, they head out for their very first shoot in Top Model . The setting was a private clinic for plastic surgery, where they would play out the posh girl having some cosmetic re-adjustments.
This would actually be a perfect setting for LaChapelle inspired pictures – but of course, this is fashion!

After the first shoot you already get a feeling of who will make it among the top 5 and who is already listed for elimination. I have to agree with the judges for the best pictures. But I was however surprised that Sarah was the first one to go. I really thought she had an interesting look.

Speaking of elimination. Who’s bright idea was it to dress up Mona in a reaper costume and have the elimination in a back alley? Seriously. Even though the first elimination is the easy one, it doesn’t hurt to do it with some style.

The three girls having the best pictures were Roberta, Charlotte and Maiken.

After the elimination round, the girls got into some Limo’s, because next stop will be Barcelona. And yes Inga, Barcelona is south.
