Matthew McConaughey’s Baby Mama Camila Alves Gets Her Big Television Break!

Camila Alves

Exotic beauty Camila Alves might finally be known for something besides shacking up with hottie Matthew McConaughey and having his son, Levi. She is filling the shoes of Jacyln Smith as host of the Bravo series Shear Genius (which I happen to LOVE)!

The show is a competition between hair stylists from all over the country who compete in all sorts of crazy hair challenges to eventually win the $100,000 prize. Think of it as the American Idol of hair styling, but better! Tabitha Coffey was on the first season, and has gone on to get her own show Tabitha’s Salon Makeover.

Bye bye, Jaclyn… Helllllo, young hottie!

Winner of ‘Shear Genius’ is Dee-Lighted!

On the finale of ‘Shear Genius‘, the contestants had to make-up a story of a woman and display it her life through hairstyles at ages 18, 30, 45, and 60. Dee thought of a rock-star who moved to LA at 18 and had success at different levels throughout life. Charlie had the story of a child star who went on to become a famous film maker. And Nicole told the story of her mom… the “it” girl at 18 who went on to make a family and a life for herself.

They each had a different hair color and only 3 hours to create all four looks. It was madness to say the least. They also got a meeting with editor-in-chief of Allure Magazine with some tips for what to work on. Nicole on her styling, Dee on variety (duh), and Charlie on not making them look old.

Nicole was the first eliminated, as two of her girls’ looks really weren’t complete. Charlie went back to his roots of the “iconic” beauty, but Kim Vo thought it looked a burrito on the 18 year old’s hair, so Dee’s work was crowned Shear Genius. She actually did 4 completely different looks and the story totally made sense. Plus, they were redheads like me, so I was a bit partial :)

Avant-Garde Spells Doom on Shear Genius

The Shear Genius stylists had an hour and a half to create personality-inspired, compelling looks for their Short Cut challenge models. A little while in, Jaclyn Smith revealed that the stylists were “double-booked”, and their second clients were the identical twins of the first! Now the contestants had to uncover and exemplify the personality of both clients with their own individual styles. Her second surprise was that the short-cut winner would be guaranteed a spot in the final three. Hair stylist powerhouse Jose Eber was guest judge, and it was time to step it up! By taking a chance and completely changing the twins’ looks, Nicole took home top honors and secured her immunity for the week.

The elimination challenge was to create an avant-garde look to reflect the four seasons. The stylists were working with celebrity and fashion photographer, Michael Grecco. Basically, he introduced them to some really plain, boring sets and told them they had to make it avant-garde. Nice.

A couple people brought what they always bring. Daniel gave us big hair with lots of extensions. Dee brought that same cut with the same color throughout. Michael demoralized and demeaned every one of them, but he was especially tough on Daniel. He liked absolutely nothing about it and made that very clear, over and over again to anyone who would listen. Kim Vo even told him that his style was like taking a laxative and sleeping pill on the same night. Ouch.

Charlie won the challenge because of the flexibility of the style and his ability to make it what Michael wanted. He and Nicole were safe, so it was down to Dee and Daniel. The judges were sick of seeing the same look from Dee week after week, challenge after challenge. With Daniel, it was the disappointment of him not creating something at all appropriate for the photo shoot and using too much product (shocker there!) In the end, Daniel, the diva from Dallas was sent packing, leaving Dee as the third person in the finale next week.

Family Matters on Shear Genius

For the Short Cut challenge on last night’s Shear Genius, the hair stylist to everyone on American Idol was the judge. Let’s keep in mind that this is the man responsible for Sanjaya’s crazy ‘dos and pony-hawks. Yeh… So, the challenge was to create a new look for some little girls going into first grade for their first day of school. Dee came in last with some chopped up severe bangs, while Daniel brought home first prize for creating a mini-Jaclyn Smith, which is exactly what the girl wanted.

We also got a glimpse into some down-time the contestants had at the SG house, where they did a fashion show “honoring” the fallen contestants. Daniel hosted and the rest did hilarious impersonations of a crazy-eyed Meredith, fashionable Nekisa, arrogant and first-to-go Oshun, jewelry-wearing Matthew, and the “invisible woman”, Gail.

For the elimination challenge, some surprise visitors were brought in for the contestants to work on- their families! But in typical reality tv, shake-it-up fashion, they wouldn’t be working on their own family member, but that of another contestant. As Short Cut winner, Daniel got to choose who cut who’s hair. In the end, Nicole chopped Dee’s mom’s hair way too short and Paulo did the exact same cut as always on Charlie’s sister’s hair. Neither did what their client wanted and both looked rough. Paulo’s looked like he stuck her head in a blender and chopped it all to pieces, so he finally went home. ‘Bout time.
