"Julien Macdonald compared her to a &amp;quot;pantomime horse&amp;quot; and Charley Speed called her &amp;quot;clumsy&amp;quot;. So it was no surprise when Kimberleigh Spreadbury became one of the first girls to get the boot from Elle Macpherson&amp;#039;s Britain &amp;amp; Ireland&amp;#039;s Next Top Model. We caught up with Kimberleigh to chat about &amp;quot;apple mint&amp;quot; and her secret Top Model crush. Do you think the right decision was made by the judges this week? &amp;quot;I completely respect the judges&amp;#039; decision to let me go. I knew that I would have to go at some point. It&amp;#039;s just a shame, because I think if I was given a chance, I could have gone a lot further in the competition.&amp;quot; How did you rate your photoshoot? &amp;quot;I was actually quite pleased with the photos. I don&amp;#039;t think they were the worst. But at the end of the day it&amp;#039;s not my decision, Charley was there on the day and saw how I worked, and obviously it wasn&amp;#039;t good enough.&amp;quot; The Lipton&amp;#039;s tea shoot was just bizarre, right? &amp;quot;It was a little weird. I had apple mint. I don&amp;#039;t really know how to be an apple or a mint. I started off the shoot being a bit too serious and then I was told I was being too pantomime. I couldn&amp;#039;t find the middle ground.&amp;quot; Was living in that shared house unbearable? &amp;quot;It was actually alright. The house was gorgeous and huge. So there was always a corner if you needed one. The problem was that we had bunk beds, I had a top bunk and I kept sitting up straight and hitting my head against the ceiling. The one bathroom was the real problem. 13 of us getting ready with one bathroom, shower and mirror.&amp;quot; How awkward was it to answer those nasty questions around the dinner table? &amp;quot;It was awkward because we knew we were being filmed. But we all knew we had to do it. There were not grudges held afterwards.&amp;quot; &amp;gt; &amp;#039;Next Top Model&amp;#039; First Elimination: &amp;#039;She looks like a pantomime horse&amp;#039; - recap Will there be a few scraps and catfights this year? &amp;quot;I think through the weeks there will be a lot more tension. It&amp;#039;s not an environment we&amp;#039;re used to living with 13 other girls. The cracks were showing in week one. I think it&amp;#039;s understandable. Living with 12 other people, who you wouldn&amp;#039;t normally choose to be your friends, tensions will arise.&amp;quot; Are you pleased to avoid all of that? &amp;quot;I&amp;#039;m glad that I didn&amp;#039;t have to put up with the girls for longer, but I would have loved to have stayed in the competition longer. The fact that I won&amp;#039;t have to argue over a bathroom or hair straighteners, that&amp;#039;s good.&amp;quot; Are you pleased you won&amp;#039;t have to do the makeover and nude shoot? &amp;quot;Oh, no, that looked like fun! I was always prepared from the start to have my hair chopped off. So there&amp;#039;s an element of disappointment, but of course, a slight bit of relief at the same time.&amp;quot; Julien compared you to a pantomime horse. What did you think to that? &amp;quot;Well at least I have a career in pantomime in the future. That&amp;#039;s just their opinion at the end of the day. Just because they think that doesn&amp;#039;t mean everyone else will. But it is a little bit strange to watch people discussing you when you can&amp;#039;t defend yourself. But if I want to be part of the industry I&amp;#039;ve got to get used to that.&amp;quot; Which girl do you think will win? &amp;quot;I like Tanya the most out of the girls. She&amp;#039;s got a really unique look. I wasn&amp;#039;t sure at first, but when I saw her first shoot, I was just blown away. I admire her ability to be a model in the day and a care-free girl the next. I think that&amp;#039;s quite admirable and nice in this industry.&amp;quot; What was Janice Dickinson like in the flesh? &amp;quot;She was wicked. She was really lovely. She&amp;#039;s a lot more cuddly and friendly than she&amp;#039;s made out to be. We were laughing constantly throughout the day. I got quite upset at one point and she came over and spoke to me and comforted me. She was genuinely a really nice woman.&amp;quot; What was your highlight from the series? &amp;quot;Probably hugging Charley Speed. He&amp;#039;s lovely. That was the best bit!&amp;quot; Britain &amp;amp; Ireland&amp;#039;s Next Top Model continues on Monday nights at 9pm on Sky Living "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
