Hello All Stars!!!
Tough challenge but all of you really impressed us this week. Let's see the photos.
Christina as Lisa Farmont
Yoona: At first, I wasn't sure if you can portray a fictional character but then Janet & Imogen also kinda represent a fictional character and I don't think there are any rules about it in the post so I can accept this photo. This photo is gorgeous. I love your eyes. It felt so alive. And I can see the character but if you put Lisa's photo with the binocular as the comparison one, the impact would be better.
Jensen: Why didnt' you pick Grace Kelly, since she's real and not a fictional character? I'm confused why you'd do that as the challenge said pick someone in history. Except for your eyes, this photo is great and you look so classically gorgeous.
Ayu: Well, films are a part of history, especially when you read it from a film/media, and with such iconic roles, such as this one, Janet's and Imogen's (And mine too, PS), I think they're acceptable and interchangeable with the name. The picture is incredibly grainy for me, and you do a good job emulating Princess Grace's role, however, I agree with Yoona in the detail about the binoculars.
Emma as Judy Garland
Yoona: You looked stunning and gorgeous in this photo. I think the styling is gorgeous and I can see the gracefulness of Judy Garland in this photo. I think the expression could be better. A little bit stiff but overall this is gorgeous
Jensen: This is nice Emma. You look sexy as heck and I can see a slight resembelence to Judy
Emma: I can see a slight resemblance to Judy too, but it's not my favourite this week. You look gorgeous, but I feel others have done better. The major difference between you and Judy here is that she was always so lively in her films and pictures, but you are stiff and dead-eyed.
Imogen as Richard Gere in Gigolo
Yoona: I think this is very risky but you pulled it off. I love this. It was unexpected, bold and brave. I think the angle could be better because in this shot you head looked huge. Overall, well done.
Jensen: I'm not completely sure I see the similarities, but I do like this and I like the risk you took going with Richard Gere
Ayu: You're thinking very outside the box going with a male, I think you did a great job of it too. However, the major difference between you and Richard in this role is that he's bringing more sex and sultry to the it, and you're bringing conservative and meek. Also, what is up with that hand, girl.
Janet as Jennifer Beals in Flashdance
Yoona: I love this. Well maybe if this is in the exact pose as Jennifer Beals in Flashdance, I would love this even more. You looked a little bit shorter so maybe if you stretch the one of the legs like in the movie, the proportion will look better. But good job.
Jensen: I have probably been your harshest critic this whole game. But I finally see potential in you for being an all star. This is fantastic.
Ayu: I think this is flawless. Profile is definitely your best angle - But that's not a good thing. The less of your face we see, the more we like it. That's not exactly winner material. You need to convince us that your face head on is good too.
Kim as Carolina Beaumont

Yoona: I didn't know that there was an inspiration behind this photo. And it was more scandalous than this one. Well, the proportion look weird but it's the concept of the photo. I like this. You executed the theme really well.
Jensen: I knew that this was an exact replica of the original. It's a job well done.
Ayu: We all know, except Yoona apparently, the picture this was replicating. The question is: Who did it better? I'm probably going to say you did, just for the fact that the dress covers up the awkward leg position the original has, although I prefer the face in the original.
Laura as Louise Brooks
Yoona: I can see the similarity in this photo. You looked gorgeous. I think the styling could be better. Maybe something that fits 20's or 30's. But overall, this is pretty solid and strong.
Jensen: I think you did a great job Laura. Very well done.
Ayu: Good job, Laura, but not really my favourite. My comments here echo Yoona's.
Mia as Dorothea Lange
Yoona: Definitely my favorite photo from you in this cycle. The styling is perfect. I love everything about it. Love the concept. Great job.
Jensen: Awesome job my dear. You got creative and I love that. You really nailed this IMO
Ayu: Great job here Mia. I really appreciate this. This is a strong showing in a strong theme. I think only the lighting is the only qualm I have (perhaps they could have reflected some in your face to make it hit your cheeks better).
Paloma as Marie Laveau
Yoona: Wow.. Gorgeous and wait.. Marie Laveau is real.. The styling is beautiful. I can see how it relate and inspired by Marie Laveau. You looked beautiful here. It's still you, bold and quirky but I don't know, I felt like I've seen a different side of you in this photo.
Jensen: This is brilliant. What a great job you've done here. You really went creative and found someone obscure and nailed this.
Ayu: Yeah, very strong picture, Paloma. It pays a great deal of Homage to Marie Leveau, but with an updated fashion twist. I don't particularly have any comments on how this could improve apart from setting.
