They are going over the top with all the advertising, it's annoying

This time Anna K was eliminated, I don't think her picture was the worst though

It's funny to read on the official website how people complain that everything is known in advance and some of the girls were paid for, how Katya and Yulia can still be around (yeah, how the strongers competitors can still be around ) when Veronika and Anna Kare the best, yeah, they are the most conventional and the least modelisque in my opinion

[Ruspat]

Yeah ^ This week the girls had another sponsor shoot - for Blend-a-med.
It was a horrific shoot.

From rtvgames:
Before that they had some challenge posing out in Paris in bikinis - Irina mentioned there would be an elimination for the girl who took the worst photos - an unfortunately - a frontrunner was cut: Anna S. - Apparently she had some disease or something that made it hard for her to pose in her bikini in the cold - so it affected her - but when she was eliminated - she was crying a lot and it was really sad - even going through her portfolio it was definitely one of the strongest. The top 3 was Alena, Anna K. and Anastasia - and their photos will be sent to Irina's agency in Spain.

After that challenge - Anastasia was fed up with everything behind the scenes and she was about to leave - but everyone convinced her to stay (there is some backstory to this but i don't know about it yet - but it had to do with things behind the scenes)

The shoot was awful as you can see above.

Katya
Alena - challenge winner

some rtvgames people seem to like Veronica, Anna K and Valentina - thankfully the majority like Anna S. and Katya

I personally can't stand Veronica, Anna K and Valya aside from personality.
Especially Valentina who is sooo one-note with her smiling shots.

[Sweet rus]

Exactly, but she is pretty and charming and all, and people still can't understand a model is not just a pretty face. I don't like Anna S, heR personality just kills everything for me plus she is on a shorter side. i am happy Lilya is doing well so far, she is the only girl from the first 3 seasons who is a real model material. Btw where do you find all the info on the contestants, on rtvgames?
I realised why I like Yulia so much, she said she was Kalmyk, and when she mentioned it, I finally saw that it really shows in the eyes and I like this exotic mix

[Ruspat]

I know Anna S. is whiny - but she is soo photogenic.

Lilya was definitely huge model material - some RTVG users talk to her and she is going to Milan - and signing with Women! We should create a thread for her once she is signed in Milano!

Rtvgames has threads for each contestants - which some of the people speak to them and post info - so that's how i know.

And i really never knew Yulia was Kalmyk, she looks really exotic though.
Anna S. is also not completely Russian right?

[Sweet rus]

I don't know, she is not versatile at all, she can take good shots but I get bored easily as they all look the same

I see. It's interesting to know how girls' careers evolve. Wow, that's huge, I knew she would find a good agency and could work well. And meanwhile I keep on checking women's site to find out who they decide to sign with but I guess they'll wait till the show is over. I heard the winner was mentioned on forums but ot was under spoiler and I didn't want to know before the show ends.

She mentioned it during the last shoot, that her eyes will look too small if she smiles too much.
Hmm I don't really know. One designer said she looked Latin and not Russian at all but I haven't heard about her heritage from Anna herself

[Sweet rus]

Loved the outcome of the last serie shooting. Alena's and Yulia's shots were my favS

I am curious how did this user learn it?

I wanna know who is signing. It has to be Katya and Yulia maybe. Btw do you know which agency Iryna S is with in Spain, I wonder if she showed the pics of previous serie's winners as she promised to and whether this agency showed any interest

[Ruspat]

^I'm sure it's Elite
Veronika just got signed with Traffic Models in Barcelona though.

Cleo knows because i think she talks with all the girls. She always seems to know all the spoilers.

[Sweet rus]

I did't find her on elite website tho, that's why I am asking. Yeah, I looked through Veronika's portfolio, but she wasn't one of the winners in competition, was she?

I just checked Lilya's site a-la Russian formspring and she says about future work with Women. I forgot to say, I actually saw Lilya a couple or so months ago while I was on my way home from work

[Ruspat]

I found Irina on Elite Barcelona site - but she is under Elite Celebrities section.

Yeah Tatiana Kozuto won last season - i haven't heard anything about her.

But wow! What did Lilya look like in person?

Celebrities? Oh well, ok

I meant she promised to show the pictures of 2 competition winners, I mean not winners of the whole project but of the serie's task. i don't remember who it was, probably Anastasiya and Alyone...I just can't remember

Well, she looked exactly the same as on tv, lovely but I thought she had a bad posture as she didn' seem tall to me

[dreamgirl]

Veronika is with Avant models now (according to Avant manager formspring). That's why her trip to Traffic is not surprising

[Ruspat]

I think Katya could really do well!
She has the height (180), the look, the proportions.
Her age is not the best (22) but there have been many models starting their careers older.

Also according to someone on RTVG - Katya signed with Women in NY - which means either Supreme or W Direct - so we will see what board they put her on!
