I have seen a couple of episodes of The Swan and find the show very disturbing. I don't mind the extreme makeover show because they are usually helping people that have real problems. The women on The Swan don't have big problems. They take normal women and make them into clones!
They make all of these women into skinny blondes with perfect noses and big boobs. Last episode they had two sisters compete against each other. One was brunette and they made the other blonde....you guessed it, they picked the blonde to go on to the pageant.
This show is just perpetuating the idea that women have to be skinny, blonde and have big boobs to be considered beautiful. What a boring world we would have if that were the case! I personally think Halle Berry is one of the most beautiful women out there. What about Selma Hayek? Some of the most beautiful people I know don't have big boobs or blonde hair.
What an awful show!
