Life Imitates Art

posted by on April 25 at 8:45 AM

It’s almost like they thought they were on the show

A woman who suffered life-threatening stab wounds to her chest and neck Wednesday allegedly was attacked by another woman who had been upset that she was too loud while watching “America’s Next Top Model.” …. The alleged attacker, an acquaintance of the victim, told the other woman to stop talking loudly. A police spokesman did not specify how they knew each other.

When the “Top Model” fan refused, police say the other woman then opened the apartment door and told her to get out, according to a police report. Police said the argument then turned physical, with one woman having a clump of her hair pulled out.

The attacker then pulled a paring knife from a nearby apple and began stabbing the 42-year-old, according to a police report.

@1, with all of the horrors posted regularly on Slog and all of your snarky, insensitive comments, this is what upsets/perplexes you? No value judgment (kind of), but very interesting.

every. single. second. of. that. episode. was. divine.

My favorite part of the episode wasn't the hee-larious "commercials", but the part where the Italian guide took the girls on a tour through the streets of Rome on fuckin' SEGWAYS and pointed out to the girls examples of chic Italian style from the common woman, and they cut to shots of C-list Italian models obviously and badly posing on street corners wearing ridiculously over-styled outfits while doing ordinary things like eating ice cream cones.

oh, and the part where the fat, unknown Italian designer commented on each girl and remarked that Dominique "wasn't very fresh".

Deliriously, good.

@8 Better than calling her what she's become: Oprah Light

@7: it was a pretty spectacular episode, definitely. Also, seeing Dominique in pictures where she looks human/attractive week after week, after looking like a 50-year-old bad drag queen during the entire episode, makes me realize how much Photoshopping goes into the magazines I read on the airplane. And that makes me smile.

Still, though, why stab someone? It's not like we don't know what they're talking about/going to say every second of that show.

kesmeshi beat me to it. The phrase "Pulled a knife from a nearby apple" will stick with me for years.

jesus. If you can't share the TV in a civilized manner, then you shouldn't get to watch it. Someone needs a time-out.

@11, 12: "F" Is for Fake: She got the knife from a nearby apple, as opposed to an apple in Singapore or Sweden.
