I went to Hong Kong a few weeks ago to celebrate Chinese New Year. These are just a few of the sights I saw during my wonderful time there.
Asia’s Next Top Model is on its 3rd cycle this year. This week we got a teaser for this cycle, and now we know that it’s premiering this March. Save the date: March 25 on Star World!

Aside from the date, here are 3 more things we know so far about this cycle.
UPDATED: More Instagram post confirmations!
I guess the goal of this episode is to teach the girls how to be relevant in the world wide web. In the age of social media represented by Tumblr, Twitter, Facebook and Instagram, this may be a “skill” that a modern model must have in her pocket. After all, social media are means to promote oneself and showcase one’s personality to the public.
Here are some of the highlights of episode 2.
WARNING: SPOILERS AFTER THE JUMP.
Personally, I think the set of contestants for the second cycle of Asia’s Next Top Model displays a more diverse representation of asian beauty. AsNTM should be a venue to showcase that beauty as well as our identity as one asian nation to the world.
Cycle 2 also decided to have 16 contestants instead of 12. I’m just sad that Nepal does not have a representative. We love Aastha.
Though it may be too early to judge based only on these photos but my current favorites are: Marie, Jodilly, Pooja, Sheena and Thao.
I got the photos from the show’s official website.
Get to know the girls after the jump.
