America's Next Top Model Season 15 Full Episode Guide
Ann and Chelsey were sent to do their Vogue Italia cover shots, where the photographer lauded them both. They arrived at Orta San Giulio and were sent to shoot their CoverGirl commercial, where instead of memorizing lines, they were instructed to do voice-overs. After the shoot, their families made a surprise appearance, where it was revealed that they would be sitting at the front row during their final fashion show. The next day, the final two met IMG Models executive Ivan Bart, where Ivan was pleased with Chelsey's personality and modeling experience, while Ann was advised to work on her personality, though her photos impressed. Ann and Chelsey were joined by Cycle 14 winner Krista White and eliminated cycle 15 girls Chris, Kayla, Jane and Liz as they walked for Roberto Cavalli's Just Cavalli line.
This is the recap episode of the cycle chronicling the first eleven episodes, and included some unbroadcast footage. Chelsey's 23rd birthday, Jane's makeover to a thug, some funny moments and fights.
The girls met Miss J. and acting coach Barbara Terrinoni, who taught them about acting and emoting. Later, their personalities and confidence were put to the test when they met one-on-one with Vogue Italia's editor-in-chief, Franca Sozzani. Franca was impressed by Ann’s pictures, but ultimately chose Chelsey to win the prize of a private viewing of Leonardo Da Vinci’s “The Last Supper” with André Leon Talley, as well as an overnight stay at a seven star Milan hotel called the Town House Galleria, which she shared with Kayla.
Before sending the girls to the streets of Milan for go-sees, Tyra helped them organize their portfolios. Amongst one of their four appointments was Versace – and all the girls naturally headed there first. Chris injured her ankle on the way back. Ann was the only one who booked Versace, though she arrived late for evaluation and was disqualified together with Kayla. Chelsey was the only girl able to visit two go-sees, winning her the challenge.
Tyra informs the final six girls they will be moving to Italy. Upon arrival in Venice, the girls pose in their first group photo shoot on a gondola before heading to Milan where they visit their first Italian Fashion House, Missoni. Fashion designer and model Margherita Missoni is this week's guest judge.
Designer Zac Posen surprises the girls at their beach house to inform them they will be wearing his fall 2010 collection during this week's runway challenge on America's Next Top Model
During this week's challenge the girls head over to The Grammy Museum in Los Angeles where Neil Portman, President and CEO of The Recording Academy, reveals that one of them will be chosen to be a "Grammy Girl" during The 2011 Grammy Awards. During this week's photo shoot the models portray an iconic fashion designer for photographer Francesco Carrozzini, who is also this week's guest judge.
It’s that point in the season between the beginning and the end: we aren’t going abroad yet or doing go-sees, but the numbers are whittling down. In the first scene, several contestants express their feelings about the competition. Kayla expresses hope that she will win. Ann says she feels more confident now that she has received so much praise. Chelsey says she really wants to win and start her modeling career.
A tunnel in downtown Los Angeles is the setting for the most trecherous runway challenge yet: Herve Leger dresses, heels and a conveyor belt. The mayhem carries over to the photo shoot, where it's the models vs. Lucha Libre wrestlers. Back at the model house, Kasey continues to do battle with the other girls.
The girls head to a theme park where they must pose while riding a rollercoaster. The winner of the challenge is photographed for a feature on Tyra.com by Tyra herself. This week's photo shoot takes the girls underwater as they are photographed by top beauty photographer Matthew Rolston, who is also this week's guest judge.
It's that time again: makeovers! There are the usual tears and trepidations, but this time it'll cost one of the models her place in the competition. Later, the girls portray fearless fallen angels in their photo shoot with male models, but for the contestant that is a lesbian, can she muster the necessary passion?
The models take hurtful words from their past and turn them into empowerment and high fashion. Demi Lovato visits the set to talk about teen bullying.
The 15th cycle begins with 32 would-be models in Palm Springs, where they attempt to become one of the 14 finalists. The ladies attend a party hosted by designer Cynthia Rowley. The season's theme is high fashion.
