AusNTM 5.07 “Media Virgins” Recap

Last week, the girls learned the true meaning of expensive and luxury and Tahnee, Clare and Adele took part in an Alex Perry fashion show on the Queen Mary 2 and all of them did a photo shoot in Chanel. What will this week bring? Find out below!

See the photo shoot here.

Full recap below the jump!

Eliminated: Lola

This week, it’s all about brands and media as the girls are thrown into an interview and selling the V Austalia airline. It’s a bit of a trick challenge because once their pitches about V Australia are over, the journalists in the room go for the hard questions – what’s it like for Lola to be plus-size, why is Clare prissy and when Cassi is going to give up smoking. I just don’t understand why they didn’t spin it back to the brand. “I may be plus-size, but do you know what’s really plus-size? V australia’s leg room!” or something cheesy like that. Don’t give them much to work with and keep it on message. Why didn’t they get that?

This week’s photo shoot is for Fashion Targets Breast Cancer and involves designer gowns and a trampoline. It’s fun but this entire episode is slowly turning into an anti-smoking campaign. We get it. Cassi smokes and it’s bad for you. It’s not like she’s the only model to ever smoke. Yes, I think she should quit, but the show needs to move on.

Tahnee and Clare shone during the photo shoot, Adele and Franky did okay but Cassi and Lola tanked.

The charity theme isn’t over, as the girls now have to model and sell their dresses at a Fashion Targets Breast Cancer auction. The winner is Franky, but the loser is Cassi, who has to be the house slave for a day. It gets far more dramatic than it needs to be, but Franky’s rap song about eggs makes it all better.

At panel, the judges love everyone. It’s going to be a hard decision, but the judges continue to love Tahnee and send Lola home because she just isn’t keeping pace with the rest of the pack.
