I get that you think Nicole has more potential, but how in the hell is this better than Nik's? Yeah yeah, Nik's urban, she's ghetto, whatever you want to call her, but aside from maybe Diane and Lisa, Nik destroyed everyone this week.

^Nik's shot was soooo stiff. And I don't really get any emotion from the shot except uncomfortable. I don't get the hype of Nik's shot tbh, she's just sitting there nude and holding hair extensions.
^And Nicole isn't just standing there holding her other arm? The only thing Nicole emotes in this shot is "dumb model." It's absolutely vacant. I mean, I don't like Nicole, but I can at least admit when she has a gorgeous shot. This isn't one of them, and is actually B2-worthy.

I disagree; I think this shot looks editorial. The body language is dead on. The facial expression doesn't say much, but the way she's lifting her chin along with the photographer's angle in the long shot, to me, feigns a hint of a snobbish expression. Nik's shot was vacant, this one has something, for me. Its a matter of opinion, I say.
I sense a bit of a bias against Nik going on here...this had the potential to look editorial, but ends up looking contrived, amateur and tacky IMO.

Nope. Nik is not one of my biases; I just think she's boring in terms of pictures. Her first two pictures were amazing but she never took a WOW shot after that.
