Cycle 8's Brittany Hatch wasn't the last instance of a weave gone awry, of course followed by Cycle 16's Molly O'Connell or Cycle 21's Kari Calhoun, but she was sure one of the first. In her makeover episode, Tyra Banks assigned Hatch "long wavy red hair, big and bushy," but what the Georgia native received was more akin to a life-sized Raggedy Ann doll. The yarn-like strands pulled on Hatch's scalp for multiple episodes before she finally broke down and asked Banks to remove it, calling the weave "possessed," (via YouTube).
Hatch joined the other contestants in going overseas to Sydney, Australia, where she was infamously late for a casting (or go-see) resulting in a cringe-worthy breakdown outside an agency. Hatch hemmed and hawed, blaming her cab driver for her tardiness. "I asked my f***ing cab driver to meet me on Cooper Street!" Hatch bellowed to fellow contestant Natasha Galkina, explaining, "It sucks because it's not my f**king fault!" Galkina's dead-pan response to the tantrum was unintentionally hilarious stating, "I just wanna tell you that some people have war in their countries," (via YouTube).
Hatch was eventually eliminated, becoming the ninth girl in Cycle 8 to be sent home, (via Reality TV World).
