Kortnie Coles – Photoshoot Portfolio Review, America’s Next Top Model Cycle 12, ANTM 2009

March 25, 2009 by vongsundara 

Kortnie should never have been cast for the show. She has no real shot in the actual modeling industry. She’s the in-between size that is too large for size 2 outfits but too small to be a full-figured model. Her bone structure is quite lovely, but that doesn’t matter as her skin is terrible after probably years of ridiculous tanning. I was happy to see her go home, and it probably took longer to send her home than it should have.

This photoshoot concept ended up quite boring. Shooting with an old camera is not a concept, Tyra. Oh well, considering everything, Kortnie didn’t do too bad, though she blends into the background a little too much.

Review Score: ★★☆☆☆

Goodness, is Kortnie still around in this competition? Somebody please tell me why she hasn’t been sent packing. Oh well, at least this photo is less horrible than the past couple of weeks, though that’s mainly due to wardrobe and makeup. At least I have something to look at instead of Kortnie awkward pose and non-existent facial expression.

Review Score: ★★☆☆☆

Ouch, what a terrible pose. I know it’s difficult to light yourself and not look stiff, but how does Kortnie manage to look stiff and still fail to light half of her own face. On top of that, her chest is puffed too far forward and her one leg seems to be randomly placed on debris.

Review Score: ★½☆☆☆

I like Kortnie’s makeover. In this photo, she’s giving off a Daryl Hannah vibe, which is always a good thing. Unfortunately, her tan is shining through a little bit too much, even moreso now that her hair has a reddish tinge to it.

Review Score: ★★★½☆

Kortnie does a good job of capturing the mood of the photoshoot. She looks joyful and cute, though I’m not too sure about her one-leg-up pose. The background models look fantastic and add an extra layer of depth to the photo, especially the model leaning on the side.

Review Score: ★★★☆☆

Kortnie is definitely one of those sympathy contestants. There is no way that Kortnie has a place in the actual modeling industry. She is too big to be a runway model and too small to be a full-figured model. On top of that, she is obviously obsessed with tanning, which is a big no-no in modeling. I wish it was a big no-no in real life too (can you tell I don’t like tanning?). This photo is absolute mess. The pose, the hair, the clothing, ouch ouch ouch.

Review Score: ★☆☆☆☆
