18-27 years old, 5'7", in good physical health, no national ad work in the last 5 years (although some previous contestants and winners have had this, so maybe they don't enforce that one), and no contracts or representation that you wouldn't be able to terminate before the start of the show.
God, I just had to google to see if Eva was 5'7'' because I knew she wasn't.
The only reality shows I'm ever going to be eligible for are What Not To Wear, Extreme Makeover, 10 Years Younger and the like. Although Wife Swap could be interesting...
Hey, I'm 18-27 years old and 5'7", although the "in good physical health" is debatable. Last weekend, I had to walk up the stairs to my car on the 9th floor - I made it 5 flights before I started losing my breath.
I always thought Specklet could model. She has an "interesting face".
mgl: you have to be 5'7" or taller. And yes, winner Eva Pigford is only 5'6.5", apparently- I wonder if they knew that when she came on the show, or if she snuck in.
Too short, fat, old and ugly, thankfully. i couldn't give Tyra a straight face.
There are auditions near.
i like Claire, and am glad the anorexic girl, loud girl, that other girl is gone. Can't wait for more eliminations. Circumcision girl needs to go.
I think it's a great name for a pompous, professorial talking pig.
I love you, box.
And thanks for the compliment, muddgirl! I fear I am too old, too short, and too out of shape for any of these modeling gigs. (I did once, years ago, get scouted to be a runway model in Japan. They like short, pale, freckled girls with vaguely Asian eyes. But I never would have been any good at it. And my posture is crap.)
Oh, and if you're doing 5 flights before you start puffing, I'd say you're in fine, fine shape.
