It is pathetic that Chelsea went home when that whiner Victoria stayed??!! She has gotten help week after week. That whole "my english" b.s. is such a baby whining excuse! And then she blows off Christian??!! You got some nerve lady! I wish she would have gone home! She wants to do what she wants to do and not the challenge.In other words she is a one trick pony! BAD DECISION !!!! Andddd Nancy should have won this one! FRINGE WAS THE WINNER?? REALLY?? Sergio and that dress suck!
