Spotted on TWoP ...

[apocalypsos]

... in Jeff's recap of last week's Project Runway:

Fine, [Terri] had some attitude with Keith, but it had been popularly acknowledged that Keith was difficult. She may be a bitch, but her not getting along with Keith is not the proof. Nor is Jerell talking smack about her when we never saw her say even a word to him. Either she's just really good at unleashing her attitude when the cameras aren't around or BULLSHIT.

Okay, look, I agree with Jeff, like, 90% of the time when it comes to this show, but I do have to point out two things --

1. Wesley and Daniel managed to have a MAJOR flirtation for two whole episodes and the cameras caught none of it. God knows I checked.

2. We've been bitching and moaning for five seasons now when contestants act like assholes that it's not like they don't know that there's cameras around and why the hell are they doing it?! So if one contestant managed to figure out how to behave when the cameras are around (saving her bad attitude for when they went off for a coffee break or whatever), I'd be impressed that it finally sunk in.

I'm not sure I believe that Terri was as hardcore a bitch as the other contestants made her out to be, either, but then again they have to live with her while she's there, not me. (Of course, I think the one-note complaints were bullshit. Lots of people on this show are one-note, some of them make that one note really well, and a lot of them make it to the finals. Keep your eyes on your own damn papers, dingbats.)

I should also point out the fact that Victorya was apparently a huge bitch on camera, and somehow that never made it on air.

Although she made some amazing faces when she felt she was too good for a challenge - the chocolate shop challenge in particular!

Keith was a whining baby who will never achieve anything in his life until he takes some responsibility for himself. Don't like Utah? OMG he's stuck there! Judges don't like his clothes? OMG, they're horrible people who are meeeeean to him! I thought Terri's restraint was admirable, especially when he started complaining about the garment only when Tim showed up.

Yeah, you know what they say about it being almost impossible to disprove something? Apparently TWoP didn't get the memo. Terri got virtually no screen time in the beginning. There's really no telling how she behaved in front or behind the cameras because it all stayed in the ether.
