Tyra may murder me... - More hotness from MMAS Cycle 2

I am absolutely hooked on Make Me a Supermodel this cycle. The show has improved so much over last season and it's really everything I could ask from a show about modeling. Everything. Which is why I haven't bothered to watch America's Next Top Model in over a month. I've been walking around campus looking over my shoulder every now and again, knowing Tyra has sent Miss J out to kill me. I'm such a traitor. But, I'm sorry. ANTM just doesn't have hot man candy like this...

And, no, Jay "Pencil" Manuel does not count as man candy. MMAS is such a better show. Jonathan, pictured above, totally booked a 2xist campaign, while on the show. Unheard of in ANTM. The models on MMAS go on go-sees every week, instead of once a season, and actually book jobs instead of just finding out if they would hypothetically be booked. It's just awesome, OK? Here's some more fabulosity from this cycle. Drooling allowed and encouraged.

Can't get enough? Check out this cycles models dressed up as candy.

My New Guilty, Sinful, Debaucherous Pleasure - Make Me a Supermodel

So I've been gone for a bit. Blame finals week. After that was done, I celebrated finals week ending with lots and lots of alcohol. And now it's spring break! And I'm not going anywhere with sand or waves so that's about as much as I'm willing to say on the subject.


Anyb*tch, the new seasons of CW's America's Next Top Model and Bravo's Make Me a Supermodel started a few weeks back and I'm watching both. Tyra's on to her twelfth cycle (ridiculous) and the show is still as entertaining as ever. Anyone who's watched as much ANTM as me knows Tyra picks half the girls for their modeling potential and the other half for comedic value. And, Tyra certainly knows how to pick 'em! I really don't think any of the girls will be successful as models, with the exception of maybe Sandra, who's gorgeous but also a raging b*tch. Self-proclaimed 'Blaxican,' Fo, is super-duper cute, but models are not, so... yeah.


Make Me a Supermodel, on the other hand, is actually what one would expect a modeling competition to be, and then some. I've been saying for years that Tyra should put aspiring male models on her show as well; her core audience is undoubtedly made up of females and gay men who would definitely appreciate some hard pectorals and dreamy jawlines thrown in amongst the catty b*tchfights. Make Me a Supermodel incorporates said dreamy jawlines AND actually makes some semblance of sense. MMAS, 2, ANTM, 0. Top Model, however, has Tyra Banks, our favorite, industrious ex-supermodel who hasn't a modicum of sanity left to her name. Tyson Beckford, though hella fine, simply cannot compete. And besides, how many shows, silly modeling competitions or otherwise, stay on the air for twelve seasons these days?

Top Model has definitely had some cool photo shoots over the years, but I found this idea from MMAS particularly sweet. Here's some eye candy (lame a** pun intended) from a recent episode.

P.S. I ♥ Colin.
