America's Next Top Model S14E10/11




Episode 10/11 - Ugly-Pretty Woman/America's Next Top Model Is... (12/05/2010)

UGLY-PRETTY WOMAN

André gave the girls a surprise visit to advise them about the fashion industry, as well as shed some light on his early career beginnings, including working for Andy Warhol.

The girls packed up and flew for Queenstown, New Zealand for their next photo shoot, but were surprised when they hear Miss J’s voice over the PA instructing them to walk down the plane aisles as part of a runway challenge. Alexandra impressed the Jays by bringing heels on board the plane, but Krista ultimately won her fourth challenge. She was rewarded with $2000 worth of Boh Runga jewelry and the chance to walk at New Zealand Fashion Week.

This week’s shoot required the girls to portray “ugly-pretty”. All the girls found a certain degree of success, and their photos similarly received both praise and criticism from different judges. Krista’s outstanding photo earned her yet another first call-out. Alexandra's photo got all-loved by the judges, but she is still looked "pretty-pretty" when they asked her to be "ugly-pretty". Raina was castigated for only doing well in higher-end shoots, Angelea's photo was considered average and generally bad by all the judges. Tyra mentioned models from past cycles that have gone on to have successful careers such as Katarzyna while talking about Angelea and where she would go when she went home. In the end, Tyra handed Raina the last photo, eliminating Alexandra and, of course, Angelea.

First call-out: Krista White
Bottom Three: Alexandra Underwood, Angelea Preston & Raina Hein
Eliminated: Alexandra Underwood & Angelea Preston

AMERICA'S NEXT TOP MODEL IS....

The final two girls took a helicopter ride to an overnight stay at Hurakia Lodge on Rakino Island. Miss J. arrived and handed them their CoverGirl commercial scripts. The next day, the girls shot both their commercial and CoverGirl print ad. Krista blanked out during her commercial and was forced to use cue cards, but was praised for laughing off her mistakes instead of breaking down. Raina got her lines out without much fuss, but failed to deliver believability.

The next day, both girls impressed Nigel during their Seventeen magazine cover shoot. When they returned to the house, Tyra surprised them with visits from their families; they proceeded to take a “Top Model” family portrait. After this, the final two proceeded to the Auckland Museum for a rock and roll circus inspired Anna Sui fashion show. It was also revealed that the past 4 eliminated finalists – Alexandra, Angelea, Jessica and Alasia – would also be walking with them. After the show, Tyra had some one-on-one time with Krista and Raina, where both shared their motivations for winning.

At the final judging, Krista’s walk was commended for being both commercial and high fashion at the same time, albeit slightly cheesy, whilst Raina’s smile and freshness were appreciated. Their CoverGirl print ads also received mixed reviews – Raina’s girl next door photo got the thumbs up, but the judges said she lacked a certain spark, while Krista’s stunning photo drew flak for failing to smile with her eyes. Both of their CoverGirl commercials failed to fully impress.

While discussing the final two’s overall portfolios throughout the season, the judges deemed Krista as a more sophisticated and edgy model who would do well on the runway, while Raina was the beauty model who would make waves internationally as a photo model.

In the end, Krista was crowned the winner of the fourteenth cycle of America’s Next Top Model.

Final Two: Krista White & Raina Hein
America's Next Top Model: Krista White


WINNER : KRISTA WHITE
