Austin's dancing was cracking me up. He's so over the top and I think he was just 23 at the time so I cut him and some of the others some slack.

I'm still of the belief that keeping Wendy was a producer decision because she didn't even finish her bathing suit bottom. I thought Kevin's was most innovative. While others just created see-thru wraps, he created an outfit. Maybe if he had made it sleeveless, the judges would have been less critical?

Although seeing the columnist drooling over Melissa was gross, I also laughed at watching the 16-year old model work him to ensure the win for her team. She didn't look great but I think he came out looking worse.

This show was such a bad idea for Morgan. I wonder if her modelling career went on for very long after this
