Think of judges “Miss J.” Alexander and Jay Manuel as Tyra’s prophets. Every time one of the contestants screws up, they pull from their Book of Banks to give a sermon about how it’s done.
Tyra knows how to behave in every culture and situation. She knows how to smile with her eyes and be FIERCE! Tyra could lose an arm in a chainsaw accident and she would still make every bloodied frame of film fabulous! The sooner you get on board with this religion, the sooner you’ll be on your way to the top.
Catch My Disease
So you’ve figured out how to smile—use your eyes to connect with the camera. If you want to really stand out from your competition, the best thing you can do is fall ill and rise above adversity. Don’t believe me? Cycle One winner Adrianne Curry: food poisoning. Cycle Six winner Danielle Evans: dehydration.
These ladies showed they could get the job done no matter how sick they felt. Unfortunately, since they have already taken the above-mentioned sicknesses, you should try and find some new way to avoid the judges comparing you directly to those ladies. Might I recommend looking into consumption? Yes, that is the retro way to talk about tuberculosis, but don’t rule it out! Symptoms include weight loss, loss of appetite, and your cheeks take on a beautiful rosy hue right before you die. In literature and films, every woman with consumption beats out Time by dying while they are still young and beautiful. So maybe the death part won’t afford you a lucrative career. You can enjoy yourself but the rest of that fits right on in with what you need to become a top model!
No Use Crying Over Spilt Hair
If you are on ANTM these days, then you probably have seen at least one cycle of the show. You probably also know that at some point early on, you are going to get a makeover. This should make you ecstatic as an aspiring model because you will have a professional gracing you with his/her hairstyling expertise. And isn’t a main part of your job as a model to give yourself over to experts as a blank canvas for the using any way?
