Unfortunately, if you'll recall, <a href="http://www.hotelchatter.com/story/2009/3/16/10222/8272/hotels/_Top_Model_Chaos_Erupts_Outside_Park_Central_Hotel">chaos erupted</a>. Lip gloss and stilettos flew all over the place when someone spied a smoking car on the street and started spreading buzz about bombs. Oy. Disaster. The auditions were called off and rescheduled due to the incident. <p>And finally, this Saturday, take two of the NYC 'Top Model' casting call was held at an equally-luxurious (read: not so much) NYC hotel, the <b><a href="http://www.hotelchatter.com/hotel-reviews/Hotel+Pennsylvania/local/161">Hotel Pennsylvania</a></b>. <a href="http://www.nytimes.com/2009/04/12/nyregion/12models.html?_r=1&hp">The New York Times</a> was there to describe the scene: <blockquote><p>Once the women got inside the hotel, their bags Jenna 2009-04-13T09:14:30-05:00 40.7501340 -73.991198 http://www.hotelchatter.com/story/2009/3/16/10222/8272 <![CDATA[<p><img src="http://www.hotelchatter.com/files/6929/gal_model_melee_10.jpg" class="top"> <p>Guests at the <b><a href="http://www.hotelchatter.com/hotel-reviews/Park+Central+New+York+Hotel/local/162">Park Central Hotel</a></b> in New York &#151; which we're familiar with due to reports of <a href="http://www.hotelchatter.com/story/2005/12/27/154613/18/hotels/_quot_I_am_currently_sleeping_in_a_mosquito_tent_on_top_of_my_mattress_quot_">bed bug incidents</a> and <a href="http://www.hotelchatter.com/story/2007/1/2/134224/9463/hotels/Dirty_Bathroom_at_the_Park_Central_Hotel">general overall dirtiness</a> &#151; have enough to be worried about when they check in. They're hoping for a good experience, surely, and they're almost certainly (at the very least) happy with the Midtown location at 56th Street and Seventh Ave. Even <a href="http://www.tripadvisor.com/Hotel_Review-g60763-d93520-Reviews-Park_Central-New_York_City_New_York.html">notoriously harsh TripAdvisor reviewers</a> rave about all the cool stuff going on around the hotel. <p>But something tells us this weekend's Park Central guests aren't going to be raving about the "exciting hustle and bustle" of the block since they, um, found themselves in the middle of a riot.
