CONFESSIONALS-WEEK 1 Part 3.

KILLIAN:

1) Describe how you are feeling in the first week of the competition.

A flood of feelings to be honest. I'm apprehensive, I'm pumped, I'm worried, and I'm hopeful. I just genuinely hope that I'm not the first to bite the dust (does that sound bad?). This is something that I've always wanted to be a part of and being the first to go would just be so gut wrenching. On the other hand, I'm trying not to be too serious.

2) How do you think you went with your photoshoots this week?

I think I could have done better but I've done all I can and if it all goes horribly wrong then it's something I can learn from - with erosion comes growth. But ultimately I think I did well. Not outstanding by any means, but acceptable. Hopefully I make it by!

3) What callout are you expecting? High or Low, and why?

I'm going to sound either vain or like I'm fishing for compliments now, haha! I reckon I'll be called in the middle or onward - at eighth or ninth.

4) What dificulties did you encounter during your shoots?

I feel as if I lacked a more dynamic set for the "Fiesta" photoshoot, and with the "Frame" shoot I feel like I didn't have enough energy or personality in my film as I would have wanted.

5) Tell me what you think of EACH contestant- personlaity-wise and model-wise.

OK, 'ere we go.

Amaranth has that dark look that can be so dynamic and edgy. I haven't seen much of her personality yet, but I'm sure she's lovely.

Chantal-Jade has quite an androgynous look that can be so versatile and interesting, and she seems quite sweet from what I've seen (AND she watches Hollyoaks! )

Chloe is so adorable and will rock commercial I reckon. And she has such an honest and likable personality, it's really nice.

She looks more like a cute girl than a model, but she has an amazing smile so that will be good for her in catalogue I think.

Jonny is a competitor, I've known that since he's arrived. He has "the look" and he'll rock this. I would like to see him with short hair but he's defitnely somebody to watch out for. And he has a blunt and cheeky way about him that's really nice.

Karasu is someone else to watch out for! He has a strong look that will fit well into editorial, commercial and catalogue so he's a triple threat. A real nice guy too.

Kendra is very pretty and I can see her in catalogue but I have a suspicion that she could be edgy too!

Lauren has an unique look and such an interesting bone structure and I can't wait to see how it photographs.

Mikiel looks so mature and modelesque, it's going to be tough to compete with him.

Robbie will probably show plenty personality in his photos.

Sara could wow everybody I reckon.

Shaq could be a silent threat.

6) Who do you think will be called first and who do you think will be eliminated?

I feel like such a bitch, man. To be fair, I think that Mikiel will be called first and Jasanee last, just because she seems more 'cute girl' than 'model'. Jazz, I'm really sorry if you read this.

7) Has anybody on the boards said anything to offend you or annoy you?

No, not particularly. I think at some point everybody is going to get agitated and their inner beast will roar, haha! I respect the judge's opinions. However, I feel like Ballard has been criticizing just for the sake of it. I understand he might just have that sense of humour and he might just be trying to "thicken our skin" but somebody might get hurt and at the end of the day nobody here wants this. But I won't make predictions as I'll just end up feeling silly in the end I expect. But I almost made it overseas per his list so I'm thankful for that acknowledgment hehe.

8 ) Which contestant(s) are you bonding with the most?

I'm trying to chat with as many as people as possible and I don't have a "set friend" on this board, but I've had a few chats with Shaq and he's pretty cool. Hopefully if I make it through the first round I can talk more with the others!

9) Is there anybody who you would like to see eliminated?

No, of course not!

10) If you make it through this week, what might you change or work on for your next shoot?

I'll work on my facial expressions and prescence in my pictures for sure. But to decide fully I'll wait for the judges reactions

CHANTAL:

1) Describe how you are feeling in the first week of the competition.
just really full of tension... like continous butterflys in my stomach.. but excited to yet i know i shouldnt be.. oh and just like left out as all the models on here seem to know somebody else from the previous cycles to help them with their pictures... whilst i just have my mam

2) How do you think you went with your photoshoots this week?
frame one: easy-ish, fun to do because i love getting made up
car one: not so good, everything was going against me that day and i just wanted to do it asap so didnt take that much time.. and although i consider myself fashion foward and i beleive my outfit was fashionable i dont think anybody else will see it as that so im worried about that too

3) What callout are you expecting? High or Low, and why?
frame: middle.. well it all depends on the pic you take... i dont believe it was that bad but i dont think its as good as some of the others will be
car: low as well explained in the question before

4) What dificulties did you encounter during your shoots?
frame: none really... well my lipstick kept going on my teeth
car: the weather, illness, my scruffy car lol, worry, being really tired... EVERYTHING REALLY! LOL

5) Tell me what you think of EACH contestant- personlaity-wise and model-wise.
i dont really know anybody at all so im going to go based on there model profile bits:
Amaranth - stunningly pretty... but the picture looks like shes tried to hard to model and i think her gothic style might bring her down a bit.. unless she plays up to the fashion goth trend which is key now
Chloe - pretty, stylish, nice hair and seems fun from what i can tell by the trashiness comment and the drunk photos lol
Jasanee - looks a bit too normal and her comments are a bit ghetto
Johnny - coool looking and seems really determined and intrested and from his posts he seems cool and funny
Karasu - he looks a lot older then his age which is a good thing but also bad and his trend seems on key - and he seems a really nice person
Kendra - perhaps a bit too young for this.. but hey its happened before and turned out great, but you can tell she is young which may bring her down but she loves fashion and make-up so these elements may make her appear older - dont really know enough about her personality wise but seems sweet
Killian - goosshh his talll for his age... but he seems more matura then Kendra, seems a bit feminine though so hopefully can pull through some more masulanity (or however its spelt haha) and his reallly nice and fun
Lauren - i think she looks a bit masculine but not in the good androgynes way and i dont know why but i think her hair colour might bring her down a bit and i dont really know what she is like
Mikel - whooahh fiercceee! he is coool as both looks and personality wise!
Robbie - he looks young for his age but he seems confident and determined and has a good height for a male model so hopefully will pull it through
Sara - cute and pretty and girly... maybe cant pull off more hardcore stuff but hopefully she will... height disadvantage though (i cant talk though haha) and she seems to be a nice lass
Shaq - another young 'un... but he does look older then 14! and he is really funny and cool!

6) Who do you think will be called first and who do you think will be eliminated?
i think johnny will be called first and i think robbie will be elimanted

7) Has anybody on the boards said anything to offend you or annoy you?
erm not that i can think off except that ballard guy when he used baby language saying model-wodel but then everything else he said was goood so i didnt mind

8 ) Which contestant(s) are you bonding with the most?
none really since i dont really chat on here but Killian watches Hollyoaks so that puts him high up there for me lol

9) Is there anybody who you would like to see eliminated?
not that i can think of!.. proberly Amaranth as shes really pretty and seems big compition in the girls stakes

10) If you make it through this week, what might you change or work on for your next shoot?
i'll defo do it when i have lots of spare time and not poorly and i will work on my poses


one more thing: after seeing some contestents pictures i think some people try to hard to be editorial by doing werid angles (yes tyra banks loves it) but after going through my magazines the models are more relaxed and coo
