Who Wants to be a Supermodel? Cycle 9

Hosted by Liya Kebede

*The semi-finalists get settled around a runway* *The promo picture is pasted at the entryway of the runway* *Liya bursts through the promo and struts to the end of the runway* *The girls scream and applaud*

Liya: Hello lovely ladies, and welcome to the NINTH CYCLE OF WHO WANTS TO BE A SUPERMODEL! *everyone claps and screams* I can't believe we're already on Cycle 9! Last cycle, Bianca Balti was crowned the eighth winner of the competition and has gone on to work for many of the most prestigious clients in the industry, but who will be next? Well, one of you, of course! So let's get started.

This cycle, there are going to be several changes, and there is going to be one HUGE TWIST! *the girls gasp* HOWEVER...you don't get to know the twist or the changes quite yet. So for now, casting will resume as normal. For your casting tasks, I'd like to see 2 photos: 1 full body, and 1 beauty. I'd like them to be pretty simple and one of them can even be a polaroid, though I'd prefer if at least one was still from a photoshoot. And also, please introduce yourself! Your personalities won't really be taken into account for casting, but I would still like to get to know you. Now, without further ado, get to the casting tasks! Good luck! *the girls run over to the photo studio and casting begins*



Rules:
- 2 PP's before disqualification
- Casting shots may be reused without penalty
- There is no real photo limit, but please keep it reasonable

Nathalie Edenburg: Hello, my name is Nathalie Edenburg, I'm 20 years old, 5'9, and I am here all the way from Brazil. Growing up in one of the poorer areas in Brazil has allowed me to not take life for granted. I want to go out and do things that I would have never thought could happen. Being here is such a dream come true and I really hope I can make you and my family proud.

Kate King: Hi there! My name is Kate King, I'm 18 years old, 5'11 and I'm here from Canada. Eh. I really love the whole modeling industry, but I really haven't had success with getting into it. I don't know why though. I feel like I have everything it takes. I like to think that I'm friendly towards everyone, but a lot of people think I'm a bitch and I'll own that. If you want to think that without even getting to know me, then BAM it's coming straight for you. If that's what you want, you better be able to take it.

Andie Arthur: Hi! My name is Andie Arthur. I'm 18 years old, 5'10, and I'm from Hattiesburg, Mississippi. I've really been trying to make it in the fashion industry, but it just hasn't gone my way. I've been denied by agencies in the past. They all say the same thing like they don't need another Constance Jablonski or another Ali Stephens or another Hanne Gaby. But I feel like I can't let that get me down. I just need to keep pushing with a smile on my face because if you think positively, positive things will happen. *smiles sweetly*

McKey Sullivan: Hello! My name is Brittany Sullivan, but I go by McKey. I'm 23 years old, 6 feet tall and I'm from Lake Forest, Illinois. I feel like I can bring something different to this competition. There are a lot of girly-girls here and I'm the complete opposite. My boyfriend is a cage fighter and I am his sparring partner. I'm definitely a tomboy and I feel like that could add a new dimension to the competition.

Cara Delevinge
*Confessional*
This competition is so mine for the taking, i see some new faces who look really interesting, and the rest of the girls look old and crusty. And then their all going off on their life story, like bitch, Liya has a foundation for helping like impovirished women or something like that, she dont care about your first world problems.

Bambi Northwood Blyth

I changed Zipporas full body photo

[bdon17]

Kate: *Confessional* Let's talk about all the girls that I've seen so far. Eniko. Old. Botoxed. NO. Edita is another elderly person. Where is your walker bitch?! Marcelina looks like an alien. Thuy is actually beautiful. Finally someone to compete with! Lily's eyes are too far apart. Doesn't Shalom mean hello, goodbye, and piece. Shalom, say shalom to the door. Natasha has a really boxy body and it makes me frightened. When I talk to Karmen, I'm not sure if she's looking at me or not. Nathalie's actually really pretty. Maybe I could be friends with her. MAYBE. Andie is probably the most gorgeous girl here. She's actual competition. McKey has potential, but she's kind out manly. ERRR. Tana IS an elf. Go back to the Keeblers. Sonia's a fucking Barbie. Where's Teresa and Ken when you need them. Anna Maria looks like a turtle. The fact that I can look over Zippora's head says it all. Eboni is a slut. Charlotte is actually gorgeous. Bitch, I give credit where credit is due. She's worthy of speaking to me. Cara is bleh. BORING. Bambi needs an eyebrow wax. Like STAT. I know you guys are going to edit that to make me look really bitchy, but please don't take it out of proportion.

Elza:
*walks in shyly* Hello! My name is Elza Luijendijk. Yea I know it's a mouthful. I'm only 16 years old and I hail from the Netherlands. I actually have a twin sister who was suppose to come audition with me but she got umm "sick". Not too be cocky or anything but I think I have tons of potential to be a model. I have a pretty face and I think my body's pretty much perfect. Whether or not I have talent that's for you to judge. I use to do pageants so I'm use to rejection and that has given me thick skin which is necessary for modeling. Umm yeah that's pretty much it. Pick me!

Kim McCullough:
*runs in screaming* Hi Liya! My name is Kim McCullough, I'm 19 years old, 5'10.5 and come from Canada. Modeling has always been a passion of mine but I've never been able to have a big break. I've done local modeling here and there and now I'm ready to show the world everything I have!

I'll just choose those two

[funfun683]

Cara
*confessional*
So im trying to get a feel for these girls personalities. And so far Kate seems like a bitch, so we could probably get along. Except that like, she has such a horse face. Sorry but befriending seabiscuit has never been a lifes goal for me. Im not saying shes ugly, but you could put a picture of her face on a bag of horse food and it would sell.

[chachachatham2]

;D ;D ;D I'm loving the roleplaying already, guys! I can tell this will be a great cycle, though choosing the cast is going to be very tricky. Casting won't close until tomorrow night though most likely, even though everyone has already signed up/submitted their stuff, I need more time to make my decision and I need to incorporate the twist into my casting decision.

So any last minute changes to casting decisions/photos, or last minute sign ups (I noticed brokendoll updated the site yesterday, so if you really are back I welcome you to sign up!) are good until tomorrow night.

Zippora: thease girls think im easy picking because im short ill just have to show um.*does her confessional with a huge bowl of ice cream*

Simona: im quiet so I dont know how the girls will like me but im going to try and get along with someone.McKey seems like a really cool girl *confessional*

Tanya: anyone care to go swimming?

Anna maria: im worried no one understands me
