For this challenge, we wanted to be swept off of our feet! Did you do that? Let's see what the judges thought!

Sean.... ** As per the rules I pulled the first one from his rough drafts.Janice: Sean, first... I think you're a total goofball. This shot reminds me of your horoscope shot very much. Same kind of dorkiness. I'm actually tired of it. Sorry sweetie, but you don't look like a knight in shining armor, sweep me off my feet, kind of guy here. Now, I'm betting if you made it on time to submitting for yourself you probably would have chosen the second one in your rough drafts. Either way I'm glad there was something in your rough drafts but I would have rather you submitted in your final drafts. If you had then this critique would be different. Emma: I ike your dorkiness. However...it doesn't work for this shot . I am not ready to see you leave Sean, I think you have so much potential and you are so different from the others here. You need to step it up if you survive this round! Julia: I agree, Sean, I think you look very happy and carefree here, and while that's not a bad thing it does not really fit this challenge 100%. I give you kudos for looking nice with your lady, though. Heidi: Oh Sean, I thought you promised us that you would do better, love! I'm sorry, but this isn't better! You look like SHE's the one PULLING you off of your feet, rather than you sweeping her off of hers! I'm sorry, Sean, I'm disappointed. Hilary: Sean, I have to agree with Heidi here. I am a bit disappointed after last round. I just don't see Prince Charming here at all. Doutzen: This is scary Sean. You remind me of a killer, crazy person with that expression. You also look like your being dragged along and I am not sure why she would do that since you look very scary.. Sorry Sean.

Mat... Janice: There are two things I like about this shot Mat and only one thing I don't really like about this shot. So, do you want the good news first pumpkin or the bad news? I'm going to give you the bad news first. I think the quality is a tad on the fuzzy side. That's it... ! The rest of the picture is very good. At first I thought you might be too soft to be considered a prince charming but the girl kind of draped on your shoulder shows that she is comfortable and secure with you. Also, you look handsome. Good job. Emma: I actually like this. I like how distant you seem from her, it gives a sort of "tough" quality because you look distant. I'm smpking crack so that probably makes NO sense, but I think everyone knows what I mean Julia: I think this is an excellent shot, Mat. You both look so in love and she looks so comforted resting on your arm. This is beautiful. Nice job!! Heidi: MAT! You're FINALLY stepping it up! I LOVE this! I agree with Janice that the quality is a tad fuzzy, but not enough to distract me! I think this is ADORABLE, and she's definitely taken by you! Well done! Hilary: Wow, Mat! I am really impressed. I agree with Janice and Heidi that the quality isn't great but, other than that, you NAILED IT! Very impressive. Doutzen: The quality is off. I think there is a connection, with the girl. She looks like she is love, you look like your thinking about something else. But I like how your head is touching hers, I am not seeing Prince Charming here, but its okay.

Ryan.... This is my version of Prince Charming. I know there are two guys in this picture but who said gay people don't need PC to come save them sometimes? I think the love is readable in the eyes and the position we are holding each other makes it seem tender and lovable. The way I lean into him and he grabs of my hair is a lovable, not rough, just cute. Hope the fact I went a little in another direction doesn't affect my critiques. I'm the one on the bottom [or in front] by the way. Janice: Ryan, first I want to say... since I have my own modeling agency, and I did have a lot of my models move into my house... I'm very comfortable around different sexualities. Also, people are coming out of the closet everyday so why not market to everyone. Not every man wants to see another man having a woman draped all over a guy. So this works. I think it's tender, but I don't know if you are necessarily prince charming or if the model in back of you is actual the prince who is charming you. Emma: I do not like your pose with that rain jacket on. It just looks bizarre. WHY ARE YOU WEARING IT! I do think this works romantically, however lke Janice said, the guy behind you looks more of a prince then you. Julia: Ryan, I know it was allowed to be a "Gay" Prince Charming, but you did have at least one photo in your RD's with a woman that I thought would fit this challenge. I am not sure about this photo, I don't think you look your best and because you're both wearing the same jacket, you don't really stand out all that much to me. Overall, I am just not really liking this photo too much. Sorry. Heidi: First off, Ryan, I LOVE how you're such a risk taker! You are constantly surprising me with your choices! I do have to agree with Julia, however, there was one in your RD's that would have worked much better. I like how you two are obviously connected, and abso-freaking-lutely ADORABLE together, but I have to agree.... you look more like the princess than the Prince Charming we were looking for. Hilary: Hmmmm well there is a definite connection here, and I really don't see why the Prince can't be snuggled by the other Prince. I think this is such a tender moment that it really doesn't matter to me who's "doin the holding" and who's "bein held." I hope that makes sense - it's a bit early for me. Bottom line - I like this. Doutzen: You both look a bit intense scary to me. BUT I do like how enveloped into each other you are that's cute. Your expressions arent appealing and I agree the man behind you looks more in charge, so I am not seeing Prince Charming in this. Prince Charming is the one who is suppose to be sweeping him away.

Mathias... Here I am with my lady, looking serious. Janice: Ohhhhhh Mathias. I do love a dominant looking male. I don't know if you are looking very charming but mhmmm, mhmmmm, mmmmm... you are looking something that most woman want to have in front of them. Gosh, I gotta get a hold of myself. I'm better at dealing with men then this. *drinks some water*. OK, Prince charming? Let's focus. I'd say that you look like you are a take charge kind of guy, and lots of ladies like to have a man who can control any situation. But maybe not control her. LOL. Unless of course she is the situation that needs controlling. Sigh... I can't help but like this. Sorry. It might be hormones. Emma: This is good. I think it's modern, but you're definately her night in shining spandex armor! Goodjob! Julia: I, too, think you look like a very take charge man here, Mathais. I think you look nice, and I like the way the two of you are posing. Altogether, I think this works well for the challenge and is a nice photo. Heidi: Holy smokin, Mathias! This is very impressive! You're another one that's really stepped it up this round! I love how you look so in charge, and yet, still so endearing! That look on her face says "Back off, girls... this one's mine!" Well done! Hilary: Holy Moly! *pours a glass of water from the pitcher that Janice has so lovingly pointed out...takes a deep gulp..* Mathis, there is no doubt this is a hottttt photo...and I don't know what that chic's problem is. I'd be staring straight at you. I think you could do better....*smiles provocatively*... I think by the looks of this you can sweep any woman off of their feet. Go Prince! Doutzen: You are one sexy as man. I love this. You look in control, commanding and damn sexy. Your whole posture is masculine and commanding, your hand over here your leg is positioned between hers, great job!

Travis.... Emma: I don't really like this. It's just bizarre and you have no connection with the girl. She looks happy and you look like you're about to kill the photographer or something. I can see what you were thinking of when you chose this, but for me it just isn't up to par. Julia: I think this is a fairly nice shot, Travis. I like how you are leaning into your girl, but she seems a bit distracted. I wonder why? Hmmm...Anyhow, I am not totally ln love with this photo, but I do think it fits the theme. Janice: Spiderman, Spiderman... SAVE ME! Ahhahaha, oh Travis, I'm not teasing you because I don't like this, actually its the opposite. I think you look like a super hero who has jumped into to save a damsel in distress. And that look on your face is intense. Your arms look very muscular. I just think you did a fabulous job. Love that pose. Love to see your body working to hold it and I love that face doesn't look strained. Great job. Heidi: Travis, I just want to.... um.... I'll finish that thought later in your dressing room I like this! I agree, you look very super-hero dropping in on your lady love! This is fabulous! Hilary: This reminds me of the scene in "Pretty Woman" where Richard Gere's character climbs up the fire escape and when he asks Julia Robert's character what happens when after the Prince rescues the Princess and she tells him "she rescues him right back." *sigh* - such a lovely story about a lawyer and a hooker - so believeable. :-P As far as the challenge at hand, I think you have met it to a T. This may be my favorite shot of you all season. Great job, Travis! And you can climb up my monkey bars any day. Doutzen: Well Travis, this is sexy stuff. I think hero saving the girl as well. You look good, she looks good, I wish there was more touching between you both, but you look like after this shot you could of gotten down and dirty so thats good. Overall this is cute

Andrew... ** this was the only one in his rough drafts with this note:
I forgot to ask for an extension so I am putting a picture in my rough drafts, can you pull it if I"m not home from dr appt. for the deadline. I didnt' get the challenge till last night so I didnt' have time to really look yet so I grabbed a photo that is okay but without finishing looking maybe not the best.Janice: Before I start, can I just say... If there is any doubt you won't be around to submit by the deadline. Just put it in your final drafts. Then it won't ever be considered late. I considered it late until I read your note but still, it should have never been a consideration. Now your photo is very good Andrew. I love how you have your arm around the woman your with, bringing her in towards you to give her comfort and security and your smile is amazing. It's a very nice shot of a perfect gentleman. Nice job. Emma: I love this picture. I like how candid it is and I love your "douchebaggy smile". However the girl looks like she's on crack (you probably slipped her a rupee), but hey, it works other then the girls face! Julia: This is a sweet and cute photo, Andrew. Your expression when looking at your girl says love to me, and her smile is stunning. This photo has a bit of a candid quality to it, but I know it isn't. Altogether, I think this is great! Heidi: LOL Emma, "douchebaggy smile" you crack me up! Andrew, the only complaint I have, is that the quality is bad. I think this is great otherwise! You two are obviously having a great time together, and the fact that your arm is around her waist, makes it that much more believable that you two are a couple, other than just a couple of friends enjoying a night on the town with each other! Hilary: I need to get out where I can meet more douchebags, I guess... Andrew I find this very sweet - it makes me smile. I agree that the quality is bad. I also agree with Julia that, at first glance, it looks like a candid. If I hadn't seen the text at the bottom I would have definitely thought candid. Other than the quality, I think you did a great job. You look like my type of prince. Doutzen: Other than the quality, I love this. I think the smile, the arm around her and all of it looks super cute. Your totally a charmer and very much into her. Sexy

Miro.... Janice: Holy SIX Pack Batman! Miro. Gosh, if I was on that beach I'd fall over and pass out looking at you walking towards me. Once again you have your arm around the lady which shows comfort and security. I don't know if I would call this a prince charming moment, since both you and your date seem distracted by something less then pleasant. Perhaps a sea dragon is about to swoop in and eat you both, but then, you don't look prepared to slay the evil beast either. You look mildly disgusted. It's not bad, but not great either. Emma: For me this is EASILY your best picture. I do think that it's a little distracting with all the people, but I do commend you for actually impressing me Julia: Miro, this photo is a little too far away for me to really get a good focus on you and your lady. I also am not liking the quality all that much, but that aside, I think you both look good, and like a couple that's not afraid of a little PDA. Decent job, here. Heidi: Miro, I'm actually kind of disappointed with this shot. You two are too far away, the quality is bad, and the fact that it wasn't even obvious to YOU that it was even Miro in the photo is something that bothers me even more. You are HOT and the girl is smokin, but I agree, your facial expressions are not that great. I'm sorry, Miro... not loving this one Hilary: Miro, Heidi said everything I was thinking. Sorry, love. Doutzen: This is so far away and the quality is bad. If it was closer I think it would be really good but

Barratt.... I know the quality is horrible but how HOT is that? Emma: I don't even know what to say about this. It's just not good. Yes you have a connection with her, but that does no make up for how small it is, the quality, and the fact that you can't even see your face, especially on a close up shot like this. Julia: Oh, Barrett. I don't like this at all. First off, it's really small, secondly, we can't really see you or your girl. We only see profiles of you both. I suppose I can kind of see a connection between the two of you, but I don't think it's enough to take away from the bad parts of this photo. Sorry. Janice: Oh Barrett, man oh man. I feel bad that Tyson got eliminated so that we could see this shot. It's not a hawt shot as you call it. We can't make out too many of your features if it weren't fuzzy. The shot is small and the profile is horrible. I'm sorry darling but I'd start praying for a non-elimination right about now if I were you. Heidi: Well, Barratt, there are a FEW things about this photo that I agree with my fellow judges about... but I think they were kinda harsh. You're connecting with your lady, which was the whole point of this shoot, and you too are a-freaking-doreable! That being said, the quality is atrocious, it's really small. I'm sorry, but that is distracting me from this shot. Hilary: I don't see how this is small, at all...but I do hate that it's a profile shot where we can barely see YOU and that the quality is bad. I do, however, think you have a connection - more of a connection than some of these other princes, so I have to give you props for that. If you survive this round, Barratt, please remember this is a modeling game, and your shots not only have to meet the theme, but have to be impressive of their own accord. And please never let me read this phrase from you again.... "I know the quality is horrible but..." There just isn't much that can come after that sentence to make the shot okay. Doutzen: The quality is bad and I do wish I could see more of this since its cropped too close to your heads. But I am with Hilary that there is more connection here than there is in other shots this round and the theme was about connecting, its just that the quality is just so

Evandro.... Julia: This is nice, Evandro. I like how you're carrying your girl on your back. I wish, though, that you seemed a bit more into her, because your expression seems totally oblivious to her, even though you're holding her. I think she looks very into you, though. Overall, not too bad. Janice: Whoa! Now this is a stop my heart, hunk of a prince charming shot! Evandro. I'm not going to gush because I sure the other judges will do enough of that for me. I don't gush *rolls eyes* or I try not to but it's a great shot. That girl who is draped behind you looks as if she is using you as a shield and you, with that expression are answer her call for protection. You are the epitome of security and confidence. I think this is spot on, fabulous. Well done. Emma: Wait so Tom Cruise went from judge to model? This seroiusly looks like Tom! Anyway this is good. Looks a little 90'sish which isn't my style, but it fits the round well Heidi: Oh Evandro! I LOVE LOVE LOVE this! *swoons* I love how that lovely lady is so enamoured by you that she doesn't want to let you go! She's obviously madly in love with you, and you look very stern and protective... even though she's behind you! VERY well done, Evandro! Hilary: I don't know, Evandro....she seems a bit clingy. :-P Okay, seriously, though. This is very hot, you are smokin', you have her wrapped around your - well, your body, lol - and those are many qualities I look for in a prince. I do wish you seemed a bit more interested, but I think the fact that she is probably going to throw herself off a cliff if you ever leave her speaks volumes for your abilities. Great job! Doutzen: WOW, WOW. I want to trade positions with her. This is very very sexy. What really makes this Prince Charming is how she is holding onto you for dear life, like your her protector. Thats so sexy and romantic. Great Job!

Eugen.... When I'm with a woman I want the world to know what I think of her and I'm not afraid of a little PDA to prove to her that I think the world of her. Here I am nuzzling my date's neck because she is just THAT irrisistible I can't wait to be alone. Janice: Two things here Eugen. One you look like your trying to get yourself a hot piece of UH HUH.... Which is NOT very prince charming of you. *writes a note to send Eugen a copy of Cinderella, Sleeping Beauty and Beauty and the Beast, none of those prince's were looking for a piece of " uh-huh"*... and the female model, because of her eye contact, is stealing the focus from you. Emma: Okay what is wrong with the girls eyes? She hs some serious lazy eyes going on! I do like your face however..but I can't look of it because of her distrcting eyes Julia: You two look like you're about to take this to the next level and aren't ready for an audience to be looking on. You definitely look into your girl here, but I am not sure if I would venture to call you her Prince Charming. I do like the way you're both posing, though, and hanging onto one another. Not too bad, overall. Heidi: I actually like this, Eugen! I love how your eyes are closed, and you look as if you are going to kiss her! SHE looks pissed off that someone interrupted to take a picture! I think YOU look definitely like a Prince Charming! Hilary: Eugen, lucky for you I agree with Heidi again. I can't stand looking at that woman, but when I look at you, I can tell you are totally into this bitch. I'd be wayyyyy nicer to you, darling...just saying. I don't think you have charmed her as well as some but I do like this. I also want to point out how beautiful you are, again. What a perfect profile you have, my dear. Good job. Doutzen: I am not looking at her, I cant stop looking at you.. Your so intensely into her and that is written all over you face, I mean there is this like unspoken sexy, intensity that I am getting from this shot. WHEW- I need a cold shower.
