The Models of Modelville
This Wednesday marked the premiere of Modelville on The Tyra Banks Show.
Cycle 10’sFatima Siad, Lauren Utter and Dominique Reighard, Cycle 8’s Renee Alway, and Cycle 9’s Bianca Golden are competing for a $50,000 modeling contract. Tyra claims these girls were chosen specially because they “touched her in a very special way.”
Each model has to keep a blog while they are in the Modelville house. You can read each of their blogs here: Bianca, Fatima, Lauren, Dominique, and Renee.
In this video, Tyra introduces each contestant and the show itself. Lauren looks really polished. Bianca talks about her airport fight. It sounds pretty bad, but Nikki has come out publicly saying Bianca is lying.
The Modelville videos continue below the jump!
In this video, Tyra asks the girls how their modeling careers are going. Bianca says she’s been working constantly, but the fight did slow her career down. Bianca has been getting pretty steady work since ANTM, and even appeared in this year’s New York Fashion Week. Renee moved to a dangerous part of LA before moving back to Maui. She’s using Modelville to restart her career.
After ANTM, Dominique found out her boyfriend had gotten another girl pregnant! That’s crazy! So she’s been dealing with that instead of focusing on her modeling career.
Lauren was living with her mom and trying to pursue her modeling career before joining Modelville. Fatima’s career has been growing steadily since ANTM, but she hasn’t been making any money and it’s been a struggle. Tyra also reveals the exciting Modelville prize.
So, what do you think? Are you going to tune in for the next episode? I think it might be a lot of fun, as long as it doesn’t become an exact replica of ANTM.
