The W Hotel in sunny Newark California graciously hosted the BRBE, Spokes model search with designer R. Shay Miles.
After a day of practicing in the halls, interviews left and right, and the non-stop wondering as to who would win, the 30 models took to the runway. Clad in 13 Personalities a line that promotes individuality, they walked their fierce walk, even when technical difficulties arose these ladies were cool and calm under the pressure and pulled it off like the pros they are.
After the walk, judges took their leave to a private room to do some hard deliberation. The models then were at ease with family and doing promotional interviews most of whom were interview by BTV.
As an attendees we here at Behind the Velvet were also in excitement as to which five girls would move on the semi-finals, yes only five out of thirty, now you can see the judge’s dilemma. Judges lined up in front of the models, designer R. Shay Miles became teary eyed at the idea of letting go of any of these girls, having had much time to bond in the past few months working together.
The five models that made it to the semi-finals were: Liz Courter, Mercedes White, Melanie Renee Benjamin, Azaria Lewis, and Hannah Maxine Myles. All five beautiful contestants were overjoyed with having this opportunity; the other models have nothing to worry about like the judges said it was a tough decision. Congratulations to our FAB five and we shall see all the models again for the Halloween Ball, Saturday October 29th 2011 6:30 pm- 12 am again at the W Hotel.
