America's Next Top Model Season 20 Episode 12

Boys vs. Girls: Who Rocked the Underwater Photoshoot?

Remember America's Next Top Model Cycle 20, the one where the guys and girls lived together and things got… interesting? Let's dive back into Episode 12, where the competition was heating up and the models were literally underwater!

The big challenge? An underwater photoshoot with designer Michael Cinco. Imagine holding your breath, striking a pose, and battling fabric all at the same time. It sounds like a recipe for hilarious disaster, right?

Liquid Assets or Just Liquid Confusion?

Some models totally nailed it. Jourdan Miller, for example, really captured the ethereal beauty the judges were looking for. Her flowy dress and serene expression made her look like a mermaid. She moved with grace and showed us what she got.

Others? Well, let’s just say gravity and water aren't always a model's best friend. We saw some struggling, some awkward flailing, and maybe a little bit of accidental face-planting. It's all part of the fun, though!

The best part was seeing how the models interpreted the challenge. Some went for drama, others for elegance, and some just looked like they were desperately trying not to drown! It was a real mixed bag.

One of the memorable moments was when a male model nearly swam into the set lights while trying to pose. It was a close call, but it made for great TV. It's the sort of thing that make watching the show.

Drama Above and Below Water

Of course, it wouldn't be ANTM without some drama. We had some disagreements about posing, styling, and who was hogging all the underwater oxygen! It was all petty and fun.

The competition was getting fierce. Everyone was fighting for a spot in the finale. You could feel the tension in the air, even with all the water!

The episode wasn’t all about the photoshoot. The models had to do some normal runway work and walk in the show. They had to get it together because everything was on the line.

Who Went Home?

Ultimately, someone had to go home. In this episode, it was Cory Hindorff. While Cory was a strong competitor, his underwater photo didn't quite capture the magic the judges were after. Sad to see them go, but not surprised.

However, Cory delivered his last performance with strength and grace. He definitely left a lasting impact on the series.

It was a tough decision, and emotions ran high. Saying goodbye is never easy, especially when everyone has worked so hard.

The Takeaway?

Episode 12 of Cycle 20 was a reminder that America's Next Top Model is more than just pretty pictures. It's about pushing boundaries, overcoming challenges, and sometimes, just trying not to swallow a mouthful of pool water. It is always a wild ride.

It showcased the models' ability to adapt, persevere, and bring their unique personalities to the forefront. It was real fun seeing all the challenges they had to overcome.

So, next time you're feeling stressed, remember those models trying to pose underwater and just laugh. After all, sometimes you just have to keep swimming!
