I, for one, can not wait for the inevitable Kenley smackdown. What an immature brat. I noticed she got her mini-me to mimic her bad behavior as they both giggled at the judges critiquing Joe. Karma is a bitch, and I can't wait for it to smack that petulant little brat on the ass.

I believe she won the Olympics challenge. I hope the final three are Koto, Leeann, and Jerrell.

I love Kenley. She did get lucky with her girl, and Jerrell is growing on me every week.
Leeann's Dress was nice, but as with most the JAckets were the suck.

So my prediction of Joe in the top 3 is gone..

That outfit was such a mess, and very not flattering for his girl

I did cheat and look at the final collections. If Leanne, Korto and Jerrell are not the final three it will be a shame.

I'm still just disappointed Terri is gone. Kenley is really becoming a problem and having seen the preview for next week:

Spoiler:
I was thrilled to see her getting a talking to from Nina


Leanne has got to be the winner at this point. Her Jacket was a problem, but seemed to have been made more to appease the mom than anything else. Can't wait to see what the remaining challenges are.

Okay. I looked at Joe's collection since he got the boot this week. Some I really liked and other designs not so much.

And that is SO disappointing to me, because up until she made the disparaging remarks about Leeann, she was my favorite. Now I think Leeann is my favorite.

Things is, it's hard to know what really happened. Yes, they edit it to make it seem like they are laughing at others, and maybe it really happened, but maybe everyone else was too. I don't know, but they do edit these shows to create drama, to make someone look bad, etc.

What the hell? Kenley's hip-hop outfit was awful! She should have gone home tonight.

Edit: Kenley did look hot as hell in the pop outfit though.

Suede wuz robbed!

His rock outfit for Jerrell was much much better than Kenley's. I thought the pants he made were amazing.

Kenley should have been auf'd if only for her sassing back to the judges. What an attitude she has. I think it is telling how all the other contestants were silently letting her hang herself with that outfit - they all think she is a brat also.

I really, really, really must echo the comments above. Kenley really should have gone home. I swore at my TV when they sent Suede home. I think the top three should def. be Jerrell, Korto, and Leanne but Suade should have been #4. Ridiculous.

For those who saw the preview for next week:

Spoiler:
WTF!?!?! It looked like everyone was having a major meltdown on the runway. I know it's a bit of clever editing but that looks insane.

Kenley should have def gotten the boot. Though she looked surprisingly sexy in that dress.

Ha ha, Kenley came off looking like a total doofus on this episode. Granted, a rather hot and sexy doofus , but a doofus nontheless.

If Suede hadn't finished in the bottom the last three times in a row, I think Kenley would have gotten the boot cuz her hiphop outfit was hideous (not to mention the fact that it had about as much hiphop in it as a Republican National Convention). But since she showed enuff skin on the runway, I think LL Cool J decided to give her a break.

Yeah, Kenley should have been received the boot. The crotch of the pants was worse than when the judges didn't like Stella's pants.

This is some garbage. I woke my daughter up screaming, "Whaaaaaaaaat!!!!" I'm sorry, Kenley's outfit, ugly and not representing hip-hop culture at all. I just don't get this and I smell something fishy.

My girl survived!!!

And I totally got a Lady Sovereign Vibe from the look



But I will concur that it was the weakest, the biggest problem with Suede's though was that as Nina said Jerrell looked like Jerrell.

Korto's outfit was horrid, well the one Leane created for her. wow, that was bad.

Tim's Take on Kenley

Kenley designs for Leanne's hip-hop persona. What didn't Kenley understand? High-waisted jeans, and demure floral print tank, and a shrunken leather jacket? How did this look say hip-hop? Furthermore, any of the items could have been purchased in "anywhere mall," today. I tried to give her some constructive feedback, but she pushed back with unbridled resistance. Therefore, it was with more than a little satisfaction that I listened to LL Cool J take her down a few pegs. Kenley, please mind your game.

WOW! I am almost speechless at this result. Spoilerized since it seems many may not have watched.

Spoiler:
Biggest copout I have seen on a show that I consider quality entertainment. This whiny "I can't make up my mind" nonsense the judges have been spouting for three seasons now is out of control!! First we have four people compete in the finals - fine it was unique, it was fun, and all four were truly radically different but with excellent skills and taste. Next we can't decide again so four of you will make outfits but three will compete - seemed a bit off but again it hadn't been done before and it seemed to just be a way to correct that Raimi had made such an awful outfit and nearly missed the finals as a result. Now we're doing it again and to what purpose? Kenley's outfit was awful. Everyone agreed. She has made the worst outfit in three challenges (what's your sign, the musical/genre challenge, and now this week) and she stays in the competition. This reeks of producer involvement, REEKS!


rant over.

I can't believe Kenley survived for another round. It's obvious that everyone on the show hates her guts, including the judges and Tim Gunn. She makes Lisa from Top Chef look like Mother Teresa. Add to the fact that her outfit for the last challenge was lousy and you have to believe that they are keeping her around for the drama factor (and admittedly, the show would be kind of boring without her).

I can't understand how Jerell can win the challenge and yet still have to compete for a spot in the final judging. If I were him I would be crying foul.

I'm rooting for Leanne. She is cute and humble and seems to be the most versatile designer.

The judges decision to keep Kenly on was terrible. She is such a tulle,,, er tool. If Kenly ends up winning, I will never watch this show again. Actually, I probably won't watch anyway since it's moving to Lifetime, but whatever.

Would love to see it come down to Kenley and Leeanne in the final two with Leeanne taking the victory. I've read that Tim Gunn is the guest judge for the finale. I'd like to see him trash Kenley's work after the way she treated him on the show.

Yeah, I had to roll my eyes at Kenley. That nasal voice/whining gets on my nerves.

Well that was a shock, but based on the dresses on stage there tonight, or whenever it aired, I'm in Japan right now and it gets confusing, but Kenley and Leanne killed with the wedding/bridesmaid combo.

and to that end i was surprised that they kept korto over Jerrell, maybe his spangly bits were too much.

At this point then I think it's Leanne's to lose, but I could be wrong. they made good work out of making my girl Kenley a villain in the last episode.
