Last week on Make Me a Supermodel the theme should have been stress because not only was the relationship between Ben and Ronnie Kroell tested but the bond between the audience and our strongest gay ally was pushed to the limits. For better or for worse tonight we'll find out if the gays gave him a pass or if he's dead to us.

Once again Prison Ben is at risk of going home but he's not alone as fellow Bottom 3 regulars Frankie and Casey are also at risk as Supermodel loses one more clothes hanger. Welcome to the liveblog for Week 9 of Bravo's gayest reality show to date, Make Me a Supermodel!

11:00PM EST: Before the poorly timed commercial we learned that Ben and Casey were in the Bottom 3 and just this second we discovered that Ronnie is up for the vote as well. Ronniegate starts again...

First, before the voting can begin there's a big scandal brewing! Perry's girlfriend Amanda has been outed as Adnan's newest conquest. Apparently he's bored with BritBrit. I'm kind of grossed out now. I need a moment... Who is this Amanda Pagel anyway?

To Vote for Ronnie: Dial 1-866-I-WANT-01, or Text 1 to 5-1555
To Vote for Prison Ben: Dial 1-866-I-WANT-02, or Text 2 to 5-1555
To Vote for Casey: Dial 1-866-I-WANT-03, or Text 3 to 5-1555

Don't forget that everyone can vote at Bravotv.com as well. Dial, text and log on to save Ronnie Kroell once again! I can't believe we're in this place again. This place where our boy Ronnie is in danger. One thing is clear, the voting public loves Ronnie and Ben so I have a feeling Casey will finally be put down. It's the right thing to do, I give you all permission to not vote for him.

10:50PM EST: Time for the runway where it looks like the models will be going black tie, flappers optional.

CATWALK ASSIGNMENT: TIMELESS ELEGANCE - Each model will be working two vintage looks and I have a feeling that the girls are going to shine.

Shannon hit the catwalk in a canary ensemble that was stunning. Ben suit vest number was hot but his walk was so stiff, has he learned nothing? Casey, eh? Holly... holla! Perry looks like a bartender at a speakeasy, I'm rolling! What is Ronnie doing? While everyone else is upstairs, this boy is downstairs.

Second looks, Ben did much beter in his tuxedo. Casey looked dead in the eyes. Perry's Hef/Bond inspired scarfy thing looked damn fine. Is it just me or does Ronnie look stuffed into his monkey suit? Also, does he have allergies? His eyes are all glassy and puffy. Holly owned that runway, she's not going anywhere tonight (I hope).

Judging is great now that there are so few models; the time that each model gets with the Judges is insightful and I love getting to see the reactions of each model as they get attacked.

Tyson, where's the Zoot Suit Riot?

Ben has done lost his mind! I know he's not up there arguining with Tyson and Niki. Has he never watched a reality show before? The person that mouths off or acts like a stubborn snob is short for the show. I'll bet the farm that he's in the Bottom 3 again this week.

After deliberations, the models are back to let everyone know where they stand. Holly won this week's challenge so she is safe, as is Shannon. That guarantees another guy leaves the competition next week.

I knew it, Prison Ben is up for the vote along with Casey and... darn commercial break.

10:40PM EST: Judge Jennifer Starr storms the castle and drags everyone out of bed and she's looking flawless doing so. I bet she's already had a facial and some yoga, looking all good at that hour of the morning... Girl can work!

Off to Bloomies where today they'll learn how to be Branding Ambassadors. Good thing Casey's already got the coat, medals and all. Each model must know everything about their outfit, from designer to material to the name of the little 4 year old that hand stitched their garment.

Ronnie is looking dashing in his pink Paul Smith but makes a big faux pas by saying one of the pieces was made of "the p word" - polyester which offends the Bloomies rep. Listen lady, aint nothing wrong with Polyester, don't make Francine Fishpaw bring the pain. That's right...

Ben is tragic, I can barely watch him stumble his way through this casting. He gets dropped from the assignment and that does not bode well for the boy.

The gang heads out to the lions den to try and sell the clothes off their backs. Perry starts off as his pompous self but quickly reigns it in. Holly's outfit is incredible it's fun, funky and fresh. Ronnie's flirting his way through the luncheon and Bloomies bird is eating it up. Casey is even holding his own, stepping out of his shell and being a salesman. When he's on, I really like the vibe he gives off. Sadly, his ups and downs are on Brit's schedule which means he's about 8 minutes away from running over a pesky paparazzo.

The winners of this challenge? Shockingly Shannon and Casey! Kudos wallflowers.

10:25PM EST: Did you guys just see that surly red haired model on the Project Runway exclusive? I'm dying. She was high-sterical!

The kids are in cars on the way to their first assignment of the night and Perry's being a total DB. Seriously, could he be more sexist at times?

PHOTO ASSIGNMENT: FASHION ON FILM - The models will be testing on how well they can act and model in a video that tells a story while still showcasing the clothing. Just like a couple weeks ago, not all models are guaranteed to make the final cut. Casey, watch your back boy.

First scene: Perry, Holly and Ronnie are the first team up. I can't concentrate on the scene because Perry's shirt is heinous... he's working my nerve tonight.

Casey and Shannon are next in a scene that sadly is not going to the way of Coco and the skeevy photog in Fame. Casey's not working and they replace him with Perry who actually hate each other, the tension could lead to a hot shoot.

The last scene will be a late night scene between lovers, geez... is there a chance that Ronnie and Ben will get a chance to showcase their homoerotic tendencies?

Within seconds the boys are pulling and tearing at each other; Ben is quite the aggressor. It's kinda hot. They still have the chemistry... a blessing and a curse.

Raise your hand if you think they planned on casting Ben in this one due to Tyson's comments last week about Ben not knowing he's sexy? It's pretty damn sexy for me.

10:10PM EST: Uh-oh, the show started without Ronnie and Ben in their room, is that a sign of things to come? They normally start with our boys but it took a good 3 scenes before our bedroom brothers were shown.

Off to eliminations where the way too blonde Niki Taylor tells Ben that he is safe for another week. Mini-rejoice. Frankie Fawcett is gone! Wow, I totes thought Casey was going home tonight. As you'll notice below, Frankie was present for some photos after eliminations, those press people are tricky.

Back at the loft, Holly lets everyone know that she's not a fan of Frankie or Casey while Perry tries to compare his friendship with his boys to that of Ronnie and Ben. Holly calls him out for being two faced and once again I'm loving Holly more each week.

Sgt. Pepper (for reals with that coat?) and Prison Ben stroll back in and wow, we're down to six models.

LOL - Shannon just compared Frankie's laughter to a mix between Fran Dresher and a dolphin... god, that girl would hate my cackle.

Ty's in the house and he calls the models together to plan a surprise Bday party for Brian, no really it's for Niki Taylor. Cute... that is until Perry and the boys decide to serenade her with a hideous song. The girls go the Martha Stewart route and make her a cake. If I'm Niki I'm all about that cake, me want food!

Seriously, could Holly look cuter at this party? Her coat is superb and I've never loved her hair more. She's my favorite girl and I don't care who knows it... where's the highest hill, I'm ready to shout.... because now those hideous boys are singing.

Sly like a fox, GQ is there to work the crowd and see how the models handle themselves. With the booze a flowin', some of these people are lucky there's not a pool near by. Never a good mix in reality television.

10:00PM EST: Showtime!

9:45PM EST: According to my post earlier, it appears that a couple dedicated readers have spotted our little bald friend in the preview for tonight's episode. In a few minutes we'll know if their frame by frame analysis proves right or if someone randomly placed a peach on top of Frankie's head.

I don't know where everyone else stands but I've moved past the bad taste Ben left in my mouth and I'm dying to see if Ronnie is still so forgiving.

While we wait for the show to start, everyone grab a hatchet, a hockey mask, a skewer, some finger knives, and a pumpkin in order to wish our very own Brian a bloody Good Birthday!

See you in a few...
