Britain's Next Top Munter

right, so i think it's fairly plain to see that modelling/reality shows are a bit overdone these days. America's Next Top Model is on its 12th series, and while it was fun to begin with, the cracks are starting to show and the old formula is getting a bit mediocre...plus i think the contestants get uglier as it goes on but that's another matter. My point really is, they need to pick up the pace and work a little harder to get my attention, which is why i was excited about the new series of Britain's Next Top Model, which started lastnight.

I've always liked British fashion more than American. We have that kooky, ecclectic way about us that America just can't grasp: Vivienne Westwood and Twiggy over Michael Kors and Christie Brinkley. So, you'd think that BNTM might give ANTM a bit of a run for its money?

You'd be completely wrong.

It makes me ashamed to be from the UK, really. Not only do none of them look like models, but the only one that (in my opinion) may actually have had a succesful career, was eliminated before they even moved into their house.

As if that wasn't bad enough, we have a new judge this series. Louis Mariette. Admittedly, i had heard of him from October's British Vogue, but he's a milliner, and the most annoying fucking milliner i have ever come across as well. He looks like a cross between M. Night Shayamalan and fucking Ru Paul's car boot sale. Oh and carries a whip as well. He needs put down immediately. As much as I disliked Jerry Deveaux from the last series, i'd do anything to get him back.

Well, moving on from one disgrace to an even bigger one. NELL NABARRO WAS ELIMINATED. Nell (not the best photo, but trust me she was the nicest) got eliminated alongside another one of the prettiest girls, Rebecca. Now, that may all have been well and good, had the girls that actually made it into the competition been stunning. They weren't.

Jeesh. I am never watching BNTM again.

Also, Cantonese cooking sauce makes me want to DIE.
