vs. 
I’m a self proclaimed America’s Next Top Model addict. It’s true, I love that show. I love the drama. I love the crying, and the backstabbing, and the goofy pictures. I even love Tyra’s cheese (gosh, that could mean a couple different things, couldn’t it?). It’s entertaining to me because these 19 year old girls just don’t know any better, which is what makes the chaos tolerable.
This morning I was flipping through channels and found a show called She’s Got the Look. It’s like Top Model but for old women.
Now, the reason I think this show is a topic of discussion today is because in this episode, one woman broke into tears because (and I quote): “how can someone who takes such pretty pictures be so mean? It’s just not fair!” …and then proceeded to sob uncontrollably. It was ridiculously embarrassing to watch. Come on lady, you’re a grown ass woman. Act like an adult, please (and that’s a lot coming from someone who never wants to grow up, but more about that later).
So any of you out there who actually find this show entertaining, go ahead and take a second to think about what you’re watching. Ladies of She’s Got the Look, please leave the crying and the backstabbing to the teens. It’s just not cute or funny when you do it. “It’s not fair,” you say? Well, it’s not fair we have to watch you carry on about nothing. It’s also not fair that you had to rip off one of the best reality TV shows out there and make it an embarrassing mess and a disgrace to adult women.
Long live Top Model!

Don’t you think you are being a little harsh on w/women of age? What makes you think the younger girls have the market on temper tantums, beauty & TV shows?
