Finally.
This week on America's Next Top Model, Camille finally took the runway walk of shame off the show. The Alliance has done well, albeit taking our good, sweet time to make that happen.

What led to Camille's departure? Well, even though she pretended to be friends with her nemesis Yoanna, Camille deceptively planted a seed that Yoanna may have an eating disorder, based solely on the fact that Yoanna went to the bathroom once after a meal. So. Completely. Ridiculous.

But Tyra the Great saw right through it, though expressing concern if it were true. And even Janice Dickinson's declaration about being "the world's first supermodel" couldn't save Camille from a nice Italian boot from the show. Ciao, Milan.

And in case you didn't know, Janice Dickinson is the world's first supermodel. She says this every week, and still feels the need to say it louder every week. She's been mummified and preserved millions of years later, for the sole purpose of reminding us that she is the world's first supermodel. She is also on track to be the world's last supermodel, one minute after the end of time as we know it. Stay tuned for that.

Next week, Shandi cheats on her boyfriend again, this time with an Italian dude, and then there is more yelling and crying on the phone with said cheated-on boyfriend. Should be good TV, as usual.

And, this week on American Idol, John 'Dean Martin Doogie' Stevens and Jasmine 'It's not a weed, it's a flower on my head' Trias made it into the Round of 12. Group 4 was almost as bad as Group 2, but not quite, since Group 2 was supposed to have been erased from our memories, yet they remain firmly planted in my brain as pure torture. I don't think Doogie will last very long. And I can't think of anything nice, nor funny to say about Jasmine. Except that I hope it's not the same flower week after week. It might wilt. And not look pretty.

Next week is the Wildcard round, bringing back some of our favorites that didn't make the final cut, such as John Peter. Actually, he is my only favorite that didn't make the cut. Otherwise, the Wildcard Group is a mix of lesser annoying rejects from earlier rounds. But still not anyone that I really need to hear again.

I do kinda hope Jennifer Hudson's hair makes it to the Final 12, though. I'd vote for her hair. Otherwise, just give LaToya the crown and let's be done with it.
