Hello Girls,
Welcome to your Fifth Judging Session. Tonight, another girl will have to leave this competition
Let's start our judging session now
Nicki: Freida, I love this. I think this is your best photo yet. I however am concerned about 2 things.
1. You didn't get rid of that logo!
2. You didn't write any sort of explanation for this.
I still think you did a great job, though.
Amanda: I like this. I don't love it for the reasons Nicki said, and we want to see you ARGUE why this is gluttonous. I mean, I can see that, but it's not like Taylor in cycle 5. It's good, it's just that Taylor's is hard to live up to. You need to take out logos and argue your stance!
BB: Your face... Wow.. I feel the hungriness and your desire to the food. Is that a dragonfruit? I love the way you hold the knife. Very "horny" and "mad" but I do agree. It's easy to remove the logo here. Other than that, this is sick.. You better go to Church now and make a confession!!!
Karen: I'm pretty sure that's a pomegranate, BB.
I definitely love how well you nailed the theme on this one, and I'm not gonna complain about the logo. That one would probably be pretty difficult to remove, anywhoo. I think you really nailed the theme, and your facial expression is devastating. Great job!
Matt: This is perfect for your sin. I love this photo. The one thing i dont like is that your wet, but it's okay. It's still very beautiful!
Amanda: This honestly looks like you're some RPG villainess about to zap whoever just got on your bad side. The setting and effects are epic and magical, and your face shows rage. You look like you are about to show your wrath on somebody who already regrets reporting that they failed you. I fucking love this. You go, girl!
BB: I love it so much Gemma... I think this is my favorite photo from you. I'm really scared with this photo but at the same time, I just can't help to see it because it's so stunning. Your eyes here are amazing. I felt the story of this photo
Karen: This is a great shot. You definitely convey the theme perfectly, and the facial expression is astounding. The outfit is also pretty solid, and all of the background elements really enhance everything else. Great work!
Nicki: Gemma, this is fantastic. You're conveying wrath perfectly, and it's a gorgeous shot. This is easily winner-material .
Matt: See i'm not being bias this is one of my favorite photos of you so far. It's so mystical and I see your sin perfectly.
Nicki: Maria, I definitely see the sloth, however, this is pretty standard. I was hoping for something a little more outside-of-the-box, since you took one of the easier sins.
Amanda: This is just too white. It sort of fades into the site background because it's so darn white. We need more color here! We need more! Like Nicki said... it's just standard, and because it's nothing special, it's not going to go over well with us. Sorry
Matt: I really like this actually. It's something different from your normal short outfits/sluttyness of the photo. Yeah it can be said that it's too white but your red hair makes you stand out. So great job!
Karen: I also appreciate the deviation from the regularly-scheduled sluttiness, because I know that you were definitely trying hard to avoid that. I do think that the whiteness really does detract from you, though, and that's unfortunate. Other than that, I love your facial expression, and I think the pose is pretty good.
BB: I'm going to go with Karen & Matt this time. I got the Sloth.. And I love the fact that you look totally control in this photo.. I think you can pose better than this. The pose (especially the hand) a little bit off for me. The other thing I don't like is the use of White color for Sloth.. Other than that, I adore this photo
Amanda: The first issue I have is that you chose Lust, which is easily the safest sin of the bunch. I also see the GUY as the lusty one, especially given how you're... topless. I also don't really follow your explanation, since you're looking away from him. This almost seems to be the opposite of lust for you... like you're apathetic towards this guy feeling you up.
I don't know about this, Mischa
Nicki: I see the lust in it to an extent, but if you're going to pick lust, you need to really go above and beyond. I also agree with Amanda that the guy is showing more lust than you are.
Matt: I'm not sure how i like this. i dont like how the guy is hidden, if he's there might as well show him. Your nakedness is also kind of awkward but your face is nice and sweet.
BB: Overall, I love the face but the way you project your body isn't good. It doesn't look sexy. Yes, you're topless but I don't know.. I think you're too sweet for Lust..
Karen: I definitely like the pose, and the black and white definitely creates a nice aura of steaminess about it, but I agree that it doesn't seem as though you yourself are particularly lustful. The photo does kind of inspire lust, though, so I'll give you grace on that.
Nicki: I sort of see it- the envy. I definitely like the black and white vibe, and I like how you chose to focus on your expression. It's always good to have direction, so I'm proud of you for that!
Amanda: This is a little TOO close up for me. I don't know how much envy I can see here, and those earrings look expensive - something to be envious of. Though the lack of color actually helps here as I look at it more - you might be jealous of someone being colorful. My opinion is mixed, but in a positive enough way.
Matt: I see lots and lots of sparkles but not so much the envy. I like it though, very model like
BB: I can feel the evil inside of you. Your eyes are the strongest element here. I love the emotion. Even though, it's close up but I feel the whole attitude and I got the envy vibe from you.
Karen: I definitely like the artistic feel of this, but for whatever reason the face doesn't come across as terribly envious to me. It's probably just my own thing, though, because I only had two hours of sleep last night. Hooray for diminished mental faculties!
Nicki: Selena, when I look at this photo, I really don't see greed. Maybe glamor, but not greed. I'm worried about you this week :/
Karen: It's a bit of a stretch for me, and the sunglasses definitely detract from your face quite a bit, which is really unfortunate. I like the outfit, though, and I think your hair is really well done, so it's still a reasonably good shot.
Amanda: You unfortunately got shafted by being the last to pick your sin, and having been stuck with greed, this is overall pretty good. It isn't anything special, though - it's just good considering the circumstances you were given. This is why I didn't think this was a good idea - someone was bound to pick last and end up with a weaker photo because of that. I hope you can survive that disadvantage, I really do.
Matt: I can pull the greed out of this. I mean you do have tons of clothes in the closet and it seems like your trying to be center of attention.
BB: I get the greed vibe.. I saw myself in this situation, actually.. I've a lot of clothes and my mom loved to neg me and said that I'm a greed person. And I really like your face expression. "Who Cares".. I think this is greed for me but I agree this isn't your best shoot..
BB: I'm not sure this week, Shilpa.. I think the styling was too much. Little bit messy. I'm not a fan of your pose.. I don't know.. but I can see your arrogance and cockiness in this photo.. It is an average photo for me
Karen: There's something kind of awkward about this photo, and I'm not sure what it is. I'm not a fan of the facial expression, and the crown just looks bizarre to me, but I think the pose is very strong, and I can definitely see the pride element here.
Nicki: I agree with Karen. This is just a bit... awkward. It's still a good shot though, since it conveys pride.
Amanda: This is decent, but not that great really. It works for the theme, but the expression is odd and the headdress sort of clashes with it. I don't know how much I like it either...
Matt: It is a tad awkward but i'm going to have to say i see the pride. You are showing off your culturalness.
