America's Next Top Model: Cycle 17, Episode 3 :: Kristin Cavallari

Sep 29, 2011

This week on America’s Next Top Model Cycle 17, Bianca battles her fear of heights as the all-stars pose on stilts. Episode 4, featuring guest judge Kristin Cavallari, aired on Sept 28, 2011.

Extra with Mario Lopez

After chatting with reality star Kristin Cavallari, who surprised them at the Top Model house, the girls were tested on their interview skills. Mr. Jay split them into two teams and had Extra host Mario Lopez interview them. The winning team would be safe from elimination. While both teams had some struggles, Lisa’s over-the-top, enthusiastic attitude ruined Team 1’s chances, putting Angelea, Isis, Alexandria, Lisa, Laura and Dominique in danger of elimination.

Walking on Stilts

This week’s Tyra mail said, “My, what long legs you have.” The girls immediately assumed they’d be working with spiders or giraffes. But when they arrived at the studio, they found twelve sets of stilts awaiting them. Bianca, who is deathly afraid of heights, questioned whether or not to participate in the photo shoot. She wasn’t at risk of elimination this week, but backing out of a challenge could ruin her chances of winning in the long run. 

Elimination

One girl from team 1 and one girl from team 2 partnered up for their sky-high photoshoot. Allison was awarded best photo out of the safe group because of her “booty tooch,” as Tyra calls it. Alexandria received best photo from the unsafe group, eventually leaving Isis and Angelea in the bottom two. Tyra told them that neither of their photos was the worst of the bunch, and that’s what makes winning challenges so important. Ultimately, Isis’s photo was worse than Angelea’s and she was sent home.
