Teen Model of the Year Success!

2010 was the first year of the seperate Teen Model of the Year competition on Saturday 27th November and it was a great success! Despite the Norfolk area being under inches of snow, 17 out of the 20 grand finalists still managed to get to the competition, travelling from all over the UK!

The finalists took part in a 2011 fashion calendar shoot in the day, and were trained by the Catwalk Professor who taught them how to walk and pose on stage! The evening consisted of a party dress round, followed by a casual round, a sportswear round where we saw some fantastic costumes, and finally an evening wear round. The finalists were then interviewed on stage by Channel 5 TV presenter Rob Lamarr!

Judges on the evening included the Catwalk Professor, Mrs World and Mrs Commonwealth Winner Hannah McCraig, Matthew Schader from Thundersport GB racing series, professional model Natalie Money, and Talitha Minnis - Model of the Year 2009 winner.

The judges had a tough decision as all the girls were equally amazing on stage, and at one point they were arguing over the winner as it was so close! After much deliberation they chose Darci Boamah aged 15 from Wells Next to the Sea as their winner, closely followed by Hannah Davis aged 15 from County Durham, and in third place Jade Pask aged 17 from Norwich.

Other award winners included Jenny Andrews as Most Promising Newcomer, Maddison Taylor aged just 13 who won Miss Charity and also the Best Catwalk (as awarded by the Catwalk Professor!) Miss Personality went to Jessica Wimbledon. The Most Photogenic award went to Hannah Davis, and Miss Popularity was Molly Jo Norman.

Hannah McCraig, owner of UK Beauties also picked winners to attend the Miss Bikini International grand finals in China next summer, choosing Jade Pask and Avanda Bennett, both 17 and from Norwich, to win all expenses paid trips to China next year to represent their country!
