Is that all she did is what she showed in the interview? IMO, that wasn't all that far out. With all the stuff I've read about the performance, I guess I was expecting it to be really crazy. Does anybody have a clip of her at prejudging? I haven't seen it yet.
Does the extra flair fall outside the guidelines? What guidelines? Isn't that the whole point, that there aren't any well defined guidelines?
Right now female BB is dying because of the anabolic look making otherwise beautiful women not so beautiful, and fitness is limited because unless you were a competitive gymnast as a kid, you can kill yourself trying to compete. Figure is growing because it gives many woman an outlet for their training. Right now figure is a joke... have an incredible physique stand there in heels (try not to fall over), stand as if you've got a stick jammed up your butt, turn around in four quick quarter turns, and walk away. So the athlete gets about 5-10 seconds to show off their physique from 4 angles after spending 14-16 prepping for the show.
How about canning the 1-piece round, and giving each girl about 30-60 seconds to be creative, show off their physique from several angles, highlighting their strengths, mitigating their weaknesses, etc. and give them a better chance to present the physique they've worked so hard on. If you still need the 4 quarter turns so that you're seeing each girl in the exact same pose, that's fine; keep it as well.
