Phil had me a little worried how long it took him to hit poses
yeah what was up with that?
i'm taken aback by tonight. can't remember an O where the pre judging threw all my preconceptions into the trash and made me re evaluate everything
and i don't carry around confirmation bias. i genuinely believe phil was something he appears tonight to not be (a perennial winner; a legacy).
he's not that. he wasn't leaps and bounds above. actually... in the final pose off.. he wasn't even 2nd. but i have him taking 2nd. i think kai did something in prep quite genius. and phil strayed / got cocky / didn't have the healthy respect and healthy fear of kai that he should have.
tomrorow will be fun.
