Competition among the hopeful models is getting tougher in "America's Next Top Model" Cycle 22. And just when you thought half of the threats (and mean guys/girls) are totally out of the picture, previously eliminated contestants are back in the show.
Based on America's Next Top Model new trailer, the seven eliminated housemates - Delanie, Stefano, Dustin, Ava, Ashely, Courtney and Bello - will be back and will join the remaining contestants in front of the judging panel. The final seven are Lacey, Nyle, Mamé, Mikey, Hadassah, Mikey and Devin.
Episode 8's preview of what going to happen next shows Bello happily saying "I'm back!" Could it be him who made it back to the game? The preview also includes a scene in the pool with Bello and Hadassah fighting, and Hadassah walking out while Bello keeps on talking. "Bello wants to take my place," Hadassah says.
Bello was eliminated in Episode 8 along with Courtney. He refused to hug or say goodbye to anyone before he left. He's quite angry with Tyra for telling him that he lost his passion and promised that if there's a chance to come back, he definitely will.
In an exclusive interview with Celeb Dirty Laundry, Bello was asked how feels now that he's eliminated. He said, "Now, I can breathe! Being out of the situation has been refreshing in the sense that I can process and deal. Being on America's next Top Model has given us all this huge platform, and good things are happen. Don't rule me out! I will be back, you have to stay tuned!"
Meanwhile, it looks like in the next episode's photoshoot, ANTM models are going to pose with some canines that seem to resemble each of them. Mikey is paired with a pooch, which has long hair just like him, while Nyle models beside a Siberian Husky with striking eyes. Mamé poses with a Pitbull, Hadassah with a poodle, which match their outfits.
"America's Next Top Model" Cycle 22 is moving to its new slot starting next week, Oct. 2, 9 p.m. on The CW.
