The sexualisation of high school students in this shoot is very disturbing

If Jay had actually explained to Natasha what a teacher’s pet is, then she could’ve understood what they wanted more. But that doesn’t create drama so they let her struggle

[@MayLina]

Yeah, I remember so vividly watching this episode as a teen. I am russian just like Natasha and I neither could understand what they meant by teacher’s pet even tho the episode was translated. And as a bonus we never bring apples (or any food) to our teachers, it is just not a thing. I understand what they meant now and you are 100% right, all the situation could’ve been resolved if they just explained her the concept in simple words, it is not hard to do

[@TheSuperNats]

Right that was a cultural bias against her. Very unfair.

[@bridgethaines7127]

I mean how hard is it to tell the girl :It's someone who is always trying to impress the teacher and earn their praise and approval for being the best student."

[@cherrygiiirl5725]

It should be mandatory for them to have interpreters on set when someone does not speak the language fluently enough to understand certain concepts. It’s messed up they played with her like that.

[@kimwhatmatters4085]

Its fucked up to related it to high school it’s what SAT would do to immigrants and poor people when they would ask certain questions and have vocabulary that the average person wouldn’t know and that’s why they’d do bad on a lot of the writing & reading comprehension because of bias

[@Starlamoon74]

Mr. Jay is so incredibly unprofessional. What he was saying to Samantha during her shoot was disgusting and if this was a real photo shoot job, something like that wouldn't be acceptable. I'm a photographer and if anyone working with me said that to one of my models they'd be fired immediately.

[@lizstyla88]

Exactly! In no profession would it be acceptable for Jay to speak to a coworker who he has authority over in that manner. Clearly she was uncomfortable and to make it worse, none of his directions were helping the poor girl do her job 😢

"But when I was a model"... Tyra never EVER stops comparing these girls to herself, no matter how much their situations differs... Like a girl can confess to horrid things happening to her when she was younger and explain that as a reason for not performing well under certain circumstanses. But Tyra comes along and goes. "When I was a model in Paris, i had to ride the subway ALL BY MYSELF! Your trauma is NOT an excuse!" And i HATE that... with a passion.

If they open up about serious trauma, be there for them and attempt to be compassionate to their situation, if you are not very comfortable with your emotions or expressing them to acquaintances the least displayed decency and/or find somebody who can comfort them, not ignore and disregarded them because you can’t understand their situation and so believe it to be irrelevant. People need time to learn, and not everyone is interested in learning, treating people like crap, like they’re beneath you, like nothing they ever do will meet your standard, never giving any credit for growth or investing time in helping you’re younger colleagues better themselves is what you can do other than simply complaining and leaving them to their own devices because you’re annoyed, if you cared about your job and your workplace then you would attempt to support the people that are implied there in a way that you able. Otherwise you’re just blowing hot air, since you’re not willing to do much about it, anything you claim as your attempt at assisting your fellow colleagues is putting them down and demonstrating subpar interpersonal skills, wasting everyone’s time and thereby losing money for company, you are complicit bystander in what you claim to be “productivity issues”, you seem to have a little compassion and interest in other success which makes you the definition of selfish, honestly overall I think you hold yourself to such a high standard that you can’t even tolerate other people that don’t meet the standard you never will yourself, I think you’re projecting onto people and I don’t think that’s healthy. Constantly comparing yourself to others and them to you is no way to live your life, is no way to form relationships, and is no way to treat your colleagues.

I felt bad for Renee regarding the styling/wardrobe-they gave her a literal clown outfit, not a class clown outfit. They could have given her a wacky color combination, loud/quirky patterns, baggy clothes. This was nothing she could work with for the theme.

You know if any, ANY of the models EVER described high fashion modeling as “Hoe but make it fashion” Tyra would’ve lost her MIND. Especially if that’s what they were doing for work before or currently. She’s so defensive about anything like that being linked to modeling (exotic dancing, stripping, escort service, etc) but, as it usually is the case, since Tyra said it it’s fine 🙄.

[@journeyjulie3973]

Learning a second language is so hard. When I was a kid, if I heard someone speaking broken English or with a thick accent, I thought they were stupid. Then I grew up, went to live in a foreign country, and experienced the frustration of learning a new language and feeling out of place. I had a major shift in perspective. They are acting like little kids, judging Natasha for not having a perfect grasp on the language. That’s the way a child thinks

I definitely wish the AnTM would have focused more on the art of modeling and improvement of each individual, rather than all the trashy drama they created and put these girls through. It's such a great concept in of itself, on its own, and it's a shame they decided to go with what they thought of as "good tv".

I’m an ESOL teacher and English idioms are really hard for all my students. Understand that if a second language speaker were even to look up “teacher” and “pet” individually, they would not necessarily get the context when trying to compound the words together. Translation devices are also notoriously bad at idioms and idiomatic phrases, and this was shot way before access to the Internet on your cell phone was a thing (not that reality contestants can hold onto them anyway even in 2022, production usually takes them away)

[@littlelizzi3135]

I know, why couldn't someone have just said that it means the favourite student? poor girl, that wasn't fair... Unsurprisingly 🙄

[@bulbasaur232]

She won't stop doing these videos cause they generate revenue for her. So while she pays her Hulu subscription and by extension ANTM, she can make money off of people like you too. In the early reacts, she wasn't as critical or illogical. I'm sure when she saw the metrics, she leaned in real hard, clutching all the pearls, reaching and grasping for anything and everything to be offended by, whether or not it ever even happened.

An apple was a gesture of appreciation for the teacher and traditionally given on the first day of school. It started centuries ago and at some point (I would guess 1960's) it evolved into currying favor. Her pose made sense in that she was gifting the teacher with an apple but had an ulterior motive. No one explained to her or anyone on the panel why she was holding it, meaning it was a 100% set up. Tyra's remark about translation was insulting.

[@MayLina]

In our schools we give teachers flowers on the first day and on holidays or teacher’s birthday. Bringing apples (or other food) to teachers have never been a thing here.

By that not very subtly implying that Samantha, instead, is ugly inside... Or is it just me? Maybe because I am not an English mothertongue I didn't get it right

[@peleber9678]

You know what kind of modeling show would be awesome? They pick out conventionally "unatractive" or you know, just regular average people and they teach them to model. The show would prove you're beautiful no matter what and it would give t's viewers some confidence and maybe even teach them how to taky better photos themselves! You know, it could have a bit of Queer Eye energy, they could pick out contestants with low confidence and hopefuly by the end of the show they'd feel better. Idk why we don't have more wholesome reality shows, people would eat it up.

Natasha was my favorite out of all the girls out of all the seasons… ❤ She’s Bubbly loving beautiful inside and out personality🥰🥰🥰

[@kztwitter]

i agree! what made me fall in love with her was part that she was from ussr and so am i. but mostly it is bubbly personality and contagious smile. especially when girls turned against her in top4 episode and she still said - girls are my friends!

[@khalilahd.]

Yesss! I completely agree ❤

[@torch712]

Jaslene did win this season (after failing to make it the season before) and she went on to be one of the show's most successful contestants. Her modeling credits still goes on to this day. Meanwhile, Renee, the girl who shaded Jaslene went on to become a burglar and a drug addict after a meh career. So life's been great to Queen Jaslene while jokes on Renee!

I was voted "most likely to ditch" in my Senior year book. My picture was me pretending to sprint away 🏃‍♀️😂 😂😂

I was watching another show - Glow up last weekend and I very fondly remember Face off. No unnecessary drama, feedback that's on point and helpfull, support and a feeling that even the judges are actually really rooting for the contestsnts. And there is pressure, just not added to by things that have nothing to do with what they're competing in. Are make up professionals just nicer and more professional than the rest of the "fashion"/entertainment industry 😅? Because ANTM (and similar) and even Project Runway always seemed like it was drama first, competition second.

[@kelsey2333]

Glow up is a UK reality TV show. American reality tv is all about drama

Former cheerleader here 🤗 our school had requirements for our skirt lengths and tops. We also had to wear our practice pants under our skirts in school. This shoot made me feel extremely uncomfortable 🤢

[@chefnyjeebackup]

Season 20 Ep. 7 has some of the best photography I’ve ever seen on the show! It was splatter paint, and they were gifs I believe too. Would love to see you review it!

[@mechengr1731]

Jessica, you should watch the whole episode. They had the girls walk the runway in this same gym, and Sarah had a wardrobe malfunction in bunch of a ton of hs students and their parents 🤣

[@vampskeldragon]

I remember this cycle being pretty messy in terms of the house dynamic. At this moment everyone was somewhat against Jaslene, later on it was Renee, and towards the end it was Natasha. No doubt production played a role in it, but even so, the way the girls behaved here was pretty insane.

[@princesslea864]

I think Jay gets off about talking about m*strubation or something... because I remember some episode that you commented and there he was also asking a girl if she thinks m*strubation is bad or if she is doing this or something... idk the exact words but I remember something among those lines.

You have opened my eyes, I have watch almost all the reaction videos the last couple months. I’m not a model, but really take Your advice in terms of my own pictures. You are a kind, good soul! And it is so interesting to see the show from Your point of view! Thank You❤️

Finally broke down and subscribed, lol! Used to watch all of these back in the day and then moved in with my mother to take care of her and she got badly hooked on it. This is like the "crack" of reality t.v. You know it's bad, but ya gotta.

That was the best segue into a sponsored ad I’ve ever seen on KZbin. I’m a new fan of yours, literally since yesterday, but you are already far more enjoyable to watch than nearly everyone else who uses this reaction format. You know your stuff and you’re hilarious when discussing it. Looking forward to watching a bunch of your videos today. ❤

This is some of the best photography we've seen in this show in a long time! I'm DYING for you to do more interviews w/ models from ANTM!! Pleease try to make this happen! If you could meet w/ anyone, who are the top 5 ppl from this show that you'd like to interview? Let us know & we (your fans) can start hitting their socials up & telling them we wanna see em on your channel!! After watching this episode, I would love for you to interview Natasha, and possibly Samantha or Jaslene. I can't get over Tyra's constant contradiction and hypocrisy!

[@gorgeousstunning3880]

So we need Oliver Twinx on it.

[@girlwiththetattoo11]

I don’t know if you knew this but Nigel said before that Tyra would pick who was going to win at the beginning of the competition. Rewatching the seasons, it makes a lot of sense to me with the treatment of the models.

natasha was such a sweetheart. they tried to insult her AND anne and her response was just like: anne was so beautiful lol

It's crazy how Adrianne and Jael sound so much alike on the show and they were both struggling with addiction during filming.

Alot of opiate/opiod addicts get that kind of raspy vocal fry going on.

I wanted to take just a quick second and tell you that I came across your channel purely by accident and I became a fan almost immediately. You are a breath of fresh air and you are so much fun to watch! Your funny comments and comebacks to some of the crazy things in these model videos are hilarious and I am really enjoying it. Please keep up the fantastic work in your videos and I am sure you will end up with a million more subscribers after no time, even though your channel is already quite popular! Love it!

[@sensualsquelch]

I am begging you to react to cycle 10 episode 5! The photoshoot has the girls modeling with paint dripping down their faces and is one of my all time favorites. During panel one of the models is berated by the judges for having hair on her armpits in the final shot, so it would make for a great video!

Lmaoo did you make the change to story of seasons when the company split? I love hearing all the video game references of games I love 🤣 You also help me realize when pictures are actually good. I remember watching and just thinking some were good or some were off. I never could put my finger on it.

[@joshuafielding7667]

I love you, Jess! I modelled for a short time (before the pandemic lockdowns) and the first couple of shoots I was made so uncomfortable and touched, etc. but after calling it out and getting selective I got a campaign for a short while; short time but it was respectful and felt appreciated.

[@GLamoRousCooKie]

The sexualisation of teenage girls was disgusting to watch. Also; as a Slavic person myself, Natasha didn't understand what a teacher's pet was because of the language barrier. Instead of Jay explaining it to her, he was berating her for not reading his mind. Also, what Jay was saying to Samantha was borderline SH. It was so wildly inappropriate and disgusting. Mr Jay got away with way too much. Even today, all the flack is on Tyra while Mr Jay got away Scott-free even though he was far more despicable than Tyra.

[@alisaburgess2890]

Love your channel. Love the commentary. Love watching America's next top model when I was a kid. But what I love most is your makeup today. You look absolutely radiant!

[@TaylorAnne]

Jessicas always gorgeous but the makeup, lighting, and wardrobe combo in this video is 💖✨

[@Jalil-wx7rh]

So I have my own opinion on this. I think to be a great model, a TOP model I guess, models are able to do things out of their limits or comfort zones they haven't done before. Not physically, but I guess emotionally or things they're not. And Jaslene is indeed a good model. I get what Rene was saying, but at the same time, good models are wide range. So I don't think Jaslene was getting favored. She's just good. And she got critique as well.

[@terribu93]

I agree. I felt like in this episode, Rene was just upset with the character she was supposed to portray. Some of the other girls also didn't like their characters but didn't down the others like Rene did.
