  • #AsNTM3 Asia’s Next Top Model Cycle 3: Episode 6 – Amiciness Picks

    This week on Asia’s Next Top Model Cycle 3, the girls posed in 3 different styles wearing clothes from online retail store Zalora. Each girl had 15 minutes to shoot, Tahlia had an additional 5, while Monika had 5 less. Who were on trend and out of style this week? Here is my own call out order:

    1. Gani

    Well, Gani brought it in this photo shoot. I can’t find flaws. It’s that good. WAIT A MINUTE. Did anyone else notice that what she wore the same outfit she wore during the challenge in the last photo? Plus OMG anyone else notice the shoes? Did she actually wear THE SAME SHOES for all three photos? This could have been to her advantage, making the quick style change easier.

    2. Aimee

    These are her best photos so far. She’s displaying a different attitude for each frame. Minor flaw with the mouth in the middle photo. But the rightmost frame! OMG I am in love with that jump. If I were to base my ranking on just one photo, this photo would be #1. Unlike Gani’s photos, Aimee’s actually looked like she was styled 3 different ways.

    She’s continually improving; I’m actually surprised since I ranked her dead last a few shoots ago. Her first two photos are great. Maybe she could’ve been softer with her feminine look in the first frame. For the last one, she looks tense especially evident with her neck. I’m kind of getting Melanie C. vibes from her this time.

    4. Tahlia

    Out of the 3 girls that wore sunglasses in their shoots, she’s the only girl that used it to her advantage. She’s bringing soft femininity in the first photo and a lot of sass in the last photo. Unfortunately for the middle photo, she’s suffering from dead eyes. There’s a general lack of eye contact in these photos.

  • In what is probably their best photo shoot so far, the girls had to flash their attractive, flirty Closeup white smiles. Monika, who got Best Photo for this photo shoot, won a commercial campaign for Closeup Diamond Attraction. But who topped and who flopped this week? This is my own call out order:

    I mentioned on Twitter that these three photos above are campaign-ready. I can picture a toothpaste ad campaign for any of these photos.

    1. Melissa

    I don’t understand how this was only 4th in the judges’ ranking. It’s fun, flirty, fierce. A lot of fans, including me, definitely feel that the judges are underestimating her modelling skills.

    2. Monika

    The smile is so natural, and it tells a story. The hair flip works on this photo. But she needs to experiment more with her poses if she wants to win this competition.

    3. Barbara

    She’s in full-on flirt mode. This is the move you pull when the guy you like says a joke and you act like it’s the funniest thing in the world just to get his attention. Her body language and her smile are great.

  • #AsNTM3 Asia’s Next Top Model Cycle 3: Episode 5 – The Girl with a Killer Smile Recap

    Amiciness is live-blogging recaps the 5th episode of Asia’s Next Top Model Cycle 3. This week, the girls are flaunting their Closeup smiles for the camera. “It’s gonna be the toughest decision so far,” says Georgina. If you could also recall from the cycle preview at the start of episode 1, this episode is probably where we see Amanda cursing at (one of) the judges. I’m stoked!

    Watch with us at 8:45 P.M. on STAR World to find out who are still in the running towards becoming Asia’s. Next. Top. Model. And will win this cycle’s fabulous prizes: a Subaru XV STI car, a campaign for TRESemme, a cover and spread for Harper’s Bazaar Singapore, and a modelling contract with Storm Models Management in London.

    We asked you who among the girls portrayed their best passionate self in their Shanghai Beauty photo shoot… And the results are in. The winner, by an enormous margin, like beyond Kelvin-scale level, is… Monika.

    Monika was uber caliente! (I think I just butchered 3 different languages there.)

  • On Asia’s Next Top Model Cycle 3 this week, the girls’ makeup skills were challenged, and they had to pose in a passionate photo shoot with everyone’s new favorite male model William. The girls had to show chemistry with their male companion and emote with fierceness and passion. This is my call out order based on how I feel they fared:

    1. Tahlia

    Black Widow, baby! You can really see her resemblance to Scarlett Johansson in this photo. Her come-hither look is so mesmerizing; her eyes draw you in. Plus that collar tug is saying that she’s in control of her man. I’m glad Tahlia has been giving us great photos so far as she’s one of the, if not the most, stunning faces this cycle.

    2. Monika

    Tugging on his collar. Check. Placing his hand on her leg. Check. Pulling his hair with gusto. Check. This is definitely one hot photo. The body was conveying desire and lust in spades, but the face needed more work.

    3. Aimee

    I imagine the story here is Aimee is the girlfriend that’s super in-love, while William is the boyfriend that’s slowly losing interest. I love the body language she’s showing with the arched back and the almost-kiss.
