Topic: Britain’s Missing Top Model: A Modeling Competition For Disabled Women Forum: JoBlo
(From WWTDD) Quote: This sounds more like a court case than a TV show, but "Brittan’s Missing Top Model" will debut next week on the BBC, as the search begins to find the worlds hottest disabled model. In a format similar to "Americas Top Model", 6 girls with a range of disabilities made it on the show, but it was a tough house to get into. Meaning the front door had to be unlocked, since there's no way more than 6 people even tried out for this dumb ass idea. The New York Daily News says... 'Britain's Missing Top Model' only features models with disabilities from around the world - including one from the U.S.. Among the eight lovely ladies who will duke it out onscreen are women without limbs, some who are partially paralyzed and one who is deaf. U.K. Marie Claire editor Marie O'Riordan, who serves as a judge for "Missing Top Model," says she has high hopes for the show: "I do believe the program could help challenge our attitudes to disability. I want to see the winner shake up the fashion industry. These young women shouldn't be invisible to the fashion world just because they are disabled." This is so unspeakably reprehensible; I can’t even find the words. People suck. There’s no way anyone is gonna watch this and see it as an empowering celebration of the human spirit. I'm sure the challenges will just be stuff like "Open This Can" or "Hear A Song". No one swings as wildly as the BBC. It’s stuff like 12 part documentaries on the migration of robins, followed by "Britain’s Fastest Child Molester". It’s "Evolving Rites of Spring with the Irish Tenors", followed by "Skip That Dwarf Across The Lake 2008". Good idea? Bad idea? What do you guys think? I hope people don't make too much of a mockery out of it, and maybe it will send a good message out for once. Cute girls though... The brunette with the leg is pretty.
