After weeks of reading a multitude of posts on the WB’s Beauty and the Geek website, I feel the need to make an official statement. To the seven people (and their supporters) who have determined that Scarlet is too short to win:
You’re a bunch of idiots.
I know I’m not supposed to talk about what’s going on behind the camera, but I think it’s safe to assume that the producers didn’t set up a slam-dunk competition for any of the upcoming challenges.
If you want a challenge of your own, get a ruler and a cast photo. First, measure the height of the first step. Second, measure the difference between the tops of Mindi’s and Scarlet’s heads. Pretty cool how the distance is almost exactly the same, huh? And if you calculate the number of stairs between Scarlet and Lauren, you’ll find that the distance is almost exactly the same again.
At 6’4”, I’m tall enough that all three of them fit under my chin with their high heels on. Thus, if Scarlet’s critics are right, Lauren or Mindi would have spelled her doom by becoming my partner because “she’s too short to win.” Bummer…
