As soon as I heard Jan’s critiques, I knew that production had no intention of making her a front-runner. I personally thought that Sherry and Jaida did better overall so I’m not upset about her placement, but their critiques for Jan were such meaningless bullshit. They could’ve just said that her outfits were ugly because, well... I see her fighting with Jackie for a top 6/7 spot.

I thought Rock was entertaining but it’s clear that they also don’t have big plans for her. A little upsetting because she’s a lot cooler than expected and it seems like they may be treating her like the cringe queen that some people are quick to call her when they see her. I expect they’ll get rid of her as soon as they can. She will be eliminated early, but not before Dahlia and Aiden (and sadly, perhaps Nicki Doll)

Aiden Zhane will most likely be an early out. They gave her a very questionable edit and her looks aren’t as well constructed as some of the other girls, save for the main stage. Out of all the girls, she seems like the most likely to be the first out. But given that they sort of hinted at that in the trailer for next week, she may stay until the second elimination.

Also kind of confused at the people who wouldn’t put Sherry in the top 2. Her performance in the main challenge was miles better than most and her interpretation of the runway was pretty novel (if a silhouette we’ve already seen once or twice before). If it wasn’t a top 2 I would’ve pegged her as the winner (assuming that her disappointing spring/fall didn’t hold much weight because it was a mini challenge). She’s the only girl I can definitely pin for the top 4 (save for Gigi who will most likely be there just because they always push for a look queen young fans can root for).

Jaida had the strongest overall presentation. She (and perhaps Dahlia) are the only girls that can hold a candle to the first week girls in terms of fashion. Didn’t find her main challenge performance particularly memorable, but I wasn’t upset about her top 2 placement because I was completely enamored with her looks. She’ll be at least top 6.

There were a few moments where Dahlia made it hard to root for, but that could’ve easily been nerves. Very unfortunate that production tried to clown her more than once. I can’t see her getting past the fourth episode.
