Melrose wasn't in the bottom two the first two rounds. She was in the bottom two in the first round due to allegedly photographing old and taking her diva-for-a-day challenge win too seriously. But the next round, she came in first with Tyra saying, "THIS looks like someone who would only get out of bed for $10,000 a day". (The first photo shoot saw the models parody model stereotypes, and Melrose had to parody the Linda Evangelista quote that pretty much killed the supermodel in North America - "We don't get out of bed for less than $10,000 a day").
