Surprises

I must admit that I was surprised, perhaps even shocked, at this week's eliminations on American Idol and Make Me a Supermodel.

After Ellie Mae Clampett's Hillbilly Hootenanny (performed by Kristy Lee Cook), I thought the viewers would surely send her home. That performance was a hot tranny mess!

But instead, cutie David Hernandez got sent home, and I was really surprised. I think David has one of the better voices this year, and I can think of at least 3 others whom I feel should have been sent home before David.

I was equally surprised, if not shocked, that Ben escaped elimination on Make Me a Supermodel. After his poor attitude with the judges and his being asked by the Bloomie's lady not to participant in the Bloomingdale's brand ambassadors challenge, I would have bet my paycheck that the viewers would send him home. But they didn't, and instead they sent Casey home.

With only 5 models left, they no longer has the "bottom 3" each week; its now the "bottom 2". The judges felt that Ben really did a great job this week so he was not in the bottom for a change. Instead, Ronnie and Shannon are 'up for the vote', which means one of them will go home. This is shocking to me because Shannon has never been in the bottom before - even once - yet she may go home on Thurs. And if Shannon doesn't go home, that means it will be gorgeous gayboy Ronnie going home, which would be a real shame. It seems the judges just can't say anything else about Ronnie except "he's too pretty for high fashion".

I think I'm ready to make a prediction: I believe Holly will win Make Me a Supermodel.
