Australia's Next Top Model

[olivetree]

i can definitely see kelsey as a tv presenter. she has the cutest expressions and seems natural in front of the camera.
i'm not sure if she was the one that won the tv presenting challenge ... was it jessica that won that one?

 

[ineedmydailydose]

and did i see Ruby Rose? ....like we dont know what happens when models and Ruby Rose are put together

They can't not send her to New York now that it's been announced and all. She's probably just going after Amanda. Maybe Priscillas want to build her portfolio more first. Theres be a whole list of reasons she's not in New York now, but we can only speculate for now.

According to this interview, it seems that Kelsey has already gone to NY:

MONDAY, OCTOBER 18, 2010

Top Model double act Amanda and Kelsey head to NYC . . .
Caught up with the two Top Model girls, a day before they jetted off to New York as part of their finales prizes

Eventual champ Amanda Ware, 18 and 'first runner-up', Kelsey Martinovich, 19, landed in New York on the weekend to meet with the Elite agency, just days after shooting a Bonds campaign and a sharp new winter collection shot by Jez Smith and designed by their ANTM judge, Alex Perry.

Maybe Kelsey is still there too, although I'd think that the article about the MTV gig would have mentioned her and not just Amanda.

 

[Street_a_Licious]

wait. so Kelsey got to shoot the Bonds campaign also?

 

[Hoother]

^I doubt it. It was probably just worded poorly.

 

[model love]

Kelsey could not possibly be landing the kind of castings that Amanda would probably go to, mainly because of her height restrictions. But with Bambi doing the international rounds, you never know. Although chances are, she'll do one season of shows with much hype, and then come the next season, disappears to do small shows, like Hannah Holman.

Or Alice Burdeau?

But i think with both these girls they have far more commercial appeal to fall back on if this happens to them.

Alice had D&G, Sonia Rykiel and Blumarine campaigns after doing the rounds. Hannah Holman got Miu Miu before she started doing the rounds, and then her runway work took a sharp decline.

But I agree, commercial work in Australia could at least sustain them.

alot of people going back and forth..lol.

they are both very pretty.will they make it big? No.
but they have alot of commercial potential.

My opinion..Kelsey has more of a modeling brain. She knows how to pose in everyway without any direction..while Amanda needs direction to get a great shot. When she does get it right though she looks stunning.
They BOTH have something there that makes them look amazing. BUT also there is also something missing..in both of them..just bleh.lol.

NO WOW FACTOR.

Kelsey will do well as a tv host.she's so bubbly and cute.she'll do good.

According to Sarah Murdoch on the Today Show, both girls have been signed by Elite.

I don't know how to directly post the video, but here's the link. She mentions it towards the end of the segment.

^Congratulations to them.

 

[JacquelineJane]

Quit with the Kelsey bashing. You're all giving Amanda too much credit. Her face is the same in every image, and her poses are really basic. Her bone structure isn't that great and apart from decent genetics, she bring nothing to the table.

So you can bash Amanda all you want, but god forbid people throw criticism Kelsey's way? Please. Everyone is entitled to an opinion, you can't tell others to be quiet just because you don't like what they have to say.

Honestly, I'll be surprised if Kelsey has any kind of career in high fashion... her look and her height just don't gel with that market. I can see her finding success as a commercial model though. People keep citing Bambi as an example of a short Aussie model who is successful overseas, but Bambi's face is unusual, interesting, unique, etc. Kelsey doesn't have that edge, so I don't think the comparisons work.

Damn straight.

 

[TianSoFine]

Guyyyyys. Both girls are great; that's why they're final two in such a fierce competition. All this back and forth isn't convincing anyone that your preferred girl is better, so can we stop this?

 

[Street_a_Licious]

stan wars!!!

gotta suck for Amanda, having to share everything with Kelsey...

 

[wednesdays child]

Yeah .. And Kelsey outshining her in most of it hehe

 

[purplethistle]

But Kelsey really does look like a midget now I won't be expecting her to do runways shows, ever. That said, I feel like Kelsey's smiles seemed more genuine.
