ok, a little defense of the models -- normally christian+models is a recipe for me to hate you -- but honestly brandon and nichole have grown on me. the're relationship actually seems pretty healthy (especially when viewed in the harsh light of "colin and chirsti") and they seem to genuinely care about one another. though i am an atheist and (some might say) hyper-sensitive to people trying to convert me i don't get that vibe at all from brandon and nichole. In fact, it often seems that the've somehow found the best of christianity -- they use it to prop each other up and to find acceptance in their situation ("we are where god wants us to be" instead of "we were screwed!" or "this is all your fault you bitch" (shut up colin)). i wanted to hate them from the beginning but the best i can do is occasionally roll my eyes in a good natured way, they seem like a caring couple.
in other news: ain't no way i would shave my head either -- i can't much blame them, especially since without hair both would have a hard time making a living as models (imagine if someone temporarily took away your ability to do you job.).
p.s. yes i'm still rooting for chip and kim.
