I understand that he's depressed, but that shows he's not a winner. Winner's are survivors and come out on top despite the odds. He's sank to the depths within himself.
Alex, good luck to you, but you're right, you shouldn't have gone on it. It was a mistake to apply and I hope he gets help when he gets out. ”

Oh.... according to Alex-haters I thought he was supposed to be arrogant, desperate to win with the motive of improving his modeling career here. His honest, modest, humble, self-critical speech refutes those accusations entirely.
Despite all the prep talks potential contestants get, the truth is that no-one knows what it's really going to be like (many of this year's HMs, not only Alex, have expressed a desire to walk early.)
His speech came across as genuine and from the heart, and shows that Alex is the least 'wannabee' HM of them all. He wants to go back to being "a face in the crowd" - something a Iot of celebrities would no doubt empathize with.
I thought his speech was the most emotionally powerful of the four. Many of my work colleagues who were not intending to vote for him said that his speech last night won them over.
