Beauty and the Geek season 3 finale

Having just came back from a 3 days holiday meant I've missed half of season 3 Beauty and the Geek (at least got to watch episode 2, 3, and 4!). Thought I would miss the season finale as well but as luck would have it LATE last night (2 am) I so happen switched on the telly and guess what was on? You guessed it! The season 3 finale! Got kinda hyped cause I knew it would be interesting and it didn't disappoint. Loved it!

Having missed 4 out of the 7 episodes (that's a lot considering it's such a short season OR maybe it just seem short because they showed it EVERYDAY during the weekdays so it only lasted for one week and a half where else other shows usually only show ONCE a week so they'll run for about one and a half month!) I didn't know how much the contestants actually changed throughout the season (that's the whole point of the show...to see how much the beauties and the geeks can transform so they wouldn't be like the typical stereotypes) but being the season finale they had the ever so helpful (for people like me) flashbacks of the journey that the last 2 teams went through. It was between team Nate and Cecille and team Scooter and Megan.

Nate and Cecille

Scooter and Megan

Every episode starts with a 'challenge round' that had contestants competing against each other to get the advantage of immunity from elimination but during the finale instead of having the challenge (how can anyone have immunity at this point anyway) the 2 teams got to spend 2 days with their fellow teammate doing each others hobby. I especially loved what Megan and Scooter did. It was very outdoorsy, which I didn't quite expect from a playboy model (Megan)...(apologies for stereotyping!)Megan took Scooter to play tennis and Scooter took Megan out for a hike and had a picnic planned out at the end of their hike (how sweet!).

Nate and Cecille activities were cool. Who would've thought a bikini model (Cecille)...(yet again, apologies for stereotyping or perhaps it's just my plain silliness of thinking bikini models do not much other then, well...model bikinis!)could dance hip hop like its hot (silly, silly me!) and Nate could sing with such crazy passion?! (Nate's the lead singer for his band, the Star Wars Band-they sing everything Star Wars).

In the end, all the previously eliminated contestants came back to cast their votes to determine which team will walk out $250,000 richer.

The final two teams

They were to judge based on which team transformed the most and each team were given the chance to talk to everyone basically to say, "Vote for me!". Everyone (the fellow contestants) was going on about how Nate had the biggest heart (I don't doubt that one bit) and how they wanted him to win but one major thing that was preventing exactly that was everyone's dislike of his teammate, who manipulated and initiated the cliques earlier on (which I also didn't like and I'm not even on the show!) and was very determine (it seems!) NOT to change (that would be just so silly to her apparently but at least she was honest about it). So, in the end, Nate with his big heart and all, seeing that Cecille indeed did NOT change one bit since she first started out and all she seems to be after is the money and not so much on the experience that they gained, went to talk to everyone and told them NOT to vote for his team because it wouldn't seem fair even though he had a lot of people rooting for him. Is that noble or what?! Who goes around asking people to vote AGAINST them?! Nate said the most important thing was the experience and memories he collected along the way and $250,000 isn't as important so he was ok with that. And there you have it; season 3 Beauty and the Geek winners: Scooter (who's absolutely ADORABLE!) and Megan! <*applause!>

Megan and Scooter reacting after Sheree (eliminated in episode 2) gave them their 7th vote (to win, the team needed at least 7 out of 12 votes to give them the majority) making them the winners of season 3 of Beauty and the Geek!
