Call the police

Internets, an open question: How the heck does Nole Marin continue to find work on reality television shows?

When he was a judge on America's Next Top Model, he wasn't feisty or crazy enough to hang with Tyra and her insanitorium gang. I'm sure he's accomplished a lot in the world of fashion and styling, but he never really had anything important to contribute, save for the time that Rebecca fainted during panel and Nole thought the appropriate response would be to "call the police!" As if fainting were a crime and the police would have to take her into custody.

And now he's on the show True Beauty, which purports to be a social experiment, pitting a house filled with self-absorbed, genetically-gifted airheads against each other in a competition to find out who "the most beautiful person in America" is - both inside and out.

Nole is pretty much the same, silent, dull judge as before. He nods in agreement with the other judges, utters a line or two, but ultimately looks like a little gay mouse who's about to pass gas. I mean, if you're going to be the gay voice on a panel of judges - about fashion - please have the decency to camp it up a bit and be interesting!
