Week 16: And the winner is...

Congratulations to Brooke for winning Week 16 of the Tie Showdown! After weeks of hype and build-up, Brooke showed up with one of the most wondrous presentations we've seen in a while (you should've seen the shoes). Clearly inspired by Michael Jackson's "Smooth Criminal" video, Brooke, P.I. won this week with 49% of the vote.

It wasn't easy, however. Let me just say, on the topic of wondrous presentations, Amber wore a freaking cummerbund and coat with tails to go with her bow tie. Never before have we seen a full conductor's tux in the Tie Showdown, and these two titans battled it out all week. In fact, Amber led for most of the week, only falling behind in the last day. If ever there deserved to be a tie (haha, get it???!) in the Tie Showdown, this was the week. Amber falls this week, but not without an incredible showing with 42% of the vote. Great week, Amber.

But it was Brooke's week, and the M.C. Escher / Smooth Criminal-inspired number was just too much to overcome. Brooke, in her first week as a competitor, has entered the Tie Showdown Hall of Champions.
