America's Next Top Model British Invasion: Cycle 18, Episode 9 :: Barney Cheng

May 03, 2012

This week on America's Next Top Model British Invasion (Cycle 18, Episode 8), the top 6 girls head to Macau, China, where they pose with some creepy crawly silkworms. Read Kidzworld’s recap of “Barney Cheng,” which aired on May 2, 2012, to discover what you missed.

The Chinese Astrologer

The top 6 girls were whisked away to Macau, China, where they settled into their swanky accommodations. For their challenge, they visited a Chinese Astrologer who told them about their lives, provided advice and told them the colors that represent each one of them. Then the girls were given ten minutes to create a new aura using the Covergirl makeup provided, along with some colorful cloths to drape around their bodies.

An Awkward Spa Day

Laura dressed in all black from clothes to makeup and received the challenge win. For a prize, she was given a spa treatment at their hotel - the MGM Macau. She was allowed to bring one friend along, and because Eboni is the only other American girl left, Miss Jay made the assumption that she’d invite her. But the result was an awkward day at the spa.

Silkworms

Later, the girls posed for a photo shoot wearing modern silk dresses designed by Barney Cheng, along with a collection a silkworms. Most of the girls cringed at the sight of the worms. But not Laura. She has no fear of anything creepy crawly and she embraced that in her photo shoot.

Elimination

Laura’s fearlessness at the shoot proved advantageous when she walked away with best photo. Two British girls wound up in the bottom two, which hasn’t happened in quite a while - Catherine and Alisha. Ultimately, the judges decided to give Alisha another chance and sent Catherine home.
