LOL Trinny and Susannah are just horrible. They're like the embodiment of all the most terrifying women or girls I ever met rolled into one (well two).. (but even if you melted them together you'd barely come up with a reasonably proportioned woman)

It's not like they kidnapped her. She agreed to do the show, hopefully knowing what the show was like.

FYI..Amanda had NEVER seen or heard of the show before all of this.

Just putting that out there.

Then she's a really good sport. And she looked really nice when it was all over. Do you know what she thought of the whole experience?

I thought she looked really nice, too, Bobbi. I was looking up AlCon pics, to show Marshall, and wouldn't you know, even though she was wearing a dress, she was wearing those same black shoes they called "Amish" on the show. I'm glad she was able to break down and buy some dress shoes. ;)

So her knees had seen the light of day at least once before the makeover...haha.

Well, some people like sausage and some people can't get over how it's made. Clothes are clothes. They exist to keep us warm and hide our shame, and anything beyond that is conjecture and opinion, not fact, no matter how many cameramen surround you. I say she looked fine before and she looks fine after; the difference is she NATURALLY arrived at "before" and was dragged kicking and screaming into "after" by elitist control freaks. And when you screw with nature, nature screws back.

Or as the late George Carlin once put it, "The only difference between lillies and turds is whatever difference humans have agreed on, and I don't always agree."

Well, despite your so over-the-top negative opinion of the show *and I agree somewhat*, she seemed grateful, even if it was tough to deal with those people. She learned a few things from the experience, too, which must count for something.

Will there be a rerun? What was the episode called? Why am I asking so many questions? :P

The episode was called, simply, "Amanda." According to Tivo, it's not set to air anytime soon, but they rerun the show all the time so I'm sure it'll pop up eventually.

she seemed grateful

Yeah, but was she? Keep in mind that among her many hats, Amanda's a STAGE PERFORMER. That's why she had so many costumes. I've seen her live several times, often while I was performing in the same show. And the thing you have to remember about "reality" TV is that they have to turn off the cameras before the story's ever REALLY over. I don't know for SURE of course, but if $5000 worth of easily-eBay-able goods were on the table, hell, I'd play along too.

Not if it's, in the immortal words of Jon Lovitz, "ACTING!"

Ok, fine, Tony. You win.

I'm worn out from trying to talk to you about this. Maybe we need to find out from Amanda what she really thought, instead of assuming.
