Cycle 23 episode 2 of America's Next Top Model saw the judging panel eliminating Justine after the runway show and photo shoot, leaving 13 contestants in the running. Next week's episode will see the challenges getting tougher, and the models will have to work hard to become comfortable in their own skin, as Cycle 23 episode 3 will feature a nude photo shoot.
The episode is titled Make Your Mark and it will see judge Ashley Graham encouraging the contestants to feel confident about their body.
The Sports Illustrated model has posed nude multiple times, but like everyone she too has moments when her insecurities pop up. In a March interview with ET, Graham said she was happy to show off her curves, but there are parts of her body she struggles with.
"My lower belly fat. I think so many women have it and I am not afraid to talk about it," she revealed. "But when it is there and it is poking out after burgers and fries, I'm like, 'Ugh.' But you throw on a cute pair of Spanx and keep going."
She also opened up about her support for photoshopping, saying she is not against removing a zit or other minor imperfections using the tool.
"I believe in a little bit, but when you're reconstructing my body, when you're reshaping my hips and my thighs and you're taking certain cellulite away -- Hello! I talk about it! I got cellulite. It's like, don't do that because the customer realises and the girl who follows me realises it's just overdone. There is a tasteful way to do it," said Graham.
Tune into America's Next Top Model Mondays at 10 pm ET on VH1. The synopsis for next week's episode, Make Your Mark, reads: "The judges choose signature looks for each model, but some ladies aren't happy with their makeovers.
