06.27.2008 OH DEAR GOD. REALLY?

This sounds more like a court case than a TV show, but "Brittan’s Missing Top Model" will debut next week on the BBC, as the search begins to find the worlds hottest disabled model.  In a format similar to "Americas Top Model", 6 girls with a range of disabilities made it on the show, but it was a tough house to get into.  Meaning the front door had to be unlocked, since there's no way more than 6 people even tried out for this dumb ass idea.  The New York Daily News says…

'Britain's Missing Top Model' only features models with disabilities from around the world - including one from the U.S.. Among the eight lovely ladies who will duke it out onscreen are women without limbs, some who are partially paralyzed and one who is deaf.
U.K. Marie Claire editor Marie O'Riordan, who serves as a judge for "Missing Top Model," says she has high hopes for the show: "I do believe the program could help challenge our attitudes to disability. I want to see the winner shake up the fashion industry. These young women shouldn't be invisible to the fashion world just because they are disabled."

This is so unspeakably reprehensible; I can’t even find the words.  People suck.  There’s no way anyone is gonna watch this and see it as an empowering celebration of the human spirit.  I'm sure the challenges will just be stuff like "Open This Can" or "Hear A Song".  No one swings as wildly as the BBC.  It’s stuff like 12 part documentaries on the migration of robins, followed by "Britain’s Fastest Child Molester".  It’s "Evolving Rites of Spring with the Irish Tenors", followed by "Skip That Dwarf Across The Lake 2008".

    "There’s no way anyone is gonna watch this …"

    Hence why it's airing on the BBC*.

    *Bullshit British Cocksuckers.

    It' unfair to the armless women - there is no way she can give good head to the judge

    Is "Missing Brain" an ability or disability

  7. djtechsys 06/27/2008 08:02

    i agree w/ fart, the one on the far right looks good, but i would get her one of those 'Real Doll' legs, so i can bend it around…plus, it would match her other good leg instead of that white wooden thing she has now.

    This is something I can finally get behind…assuming I can stabilize the wheelchair.

    Tori Spelling tried out but had to leave b/c she refused to keep her helmet on.

    At least one is named Eileen and she works at Ted's of Beverly Hills.

    Because there really IS a need for some one-legged freak to sell me mascara.

    Oh HELL no!  Fake limbs creep me right the fuck out.  Ewwwwwwww.

    Muslims should be pouring into Britain shortly

    I'm definitely going to take a pass on this show.

    But, I will totally tune in for: "Skip That Dwarf Across The Lake 2008"

    In fact, I'd like to be a contestant on that show as long as the dwarf I get to throw is Vern Troyer!

    The one in the wheel chair is all me, she wont be able to run.

     The one all the way to the right with the fake leg is nice too for the same reason.

    DD why are you always on top?

    This is what happens when you pray at the alter of diversity.

  19. dirtydiane 06/27/2008 08:14

    Slaappy- on top of what?  I haven't had enough coffee yet for your trick questions.

  20. Paleomiz 06/27/2008 08:14

    My vagina hooks to the left–can I be on this show? Displaying my disability would be interesting at the very least.
