A few weeks back, I was privileged to be one of the chosen bloggers to witness and judge the final casting of Maybelline New York 8 BB Top Models. I also participated to be one of the blogger mentors for my lovely models. Too bad my models didn’t make it to the final round but still I’m happy to be their mentor and for me, they are still my winners. *smiles* See my models here.
I felt so excited and nervous as this was my first time to be a judge in a pageant. I enjoy watching fashion shows, seeing beautiful women ramp and show themselves with confidence but grading them is a different story. You have to be very keen in choosing who you think is the most deserving from them all and it’s not an easy task.
If you’re a friend in Instagram (@genzelkisses), I posted a photo with this mug with my name at the back

Dessert Bar for everyone in the event. Ahhh so cute!!!
Opening remarks from this beautiful lady. Sorry I forgot her name. *Memory gap it is?, lol*
Stage Set Up
Each model walked and answered questions given by the judges. How they answer and project are some of the factors I looked from them. For me it’s not only about body and beauty, you have to have something there as well. Beauty and brain as they say.
They were 30 beautiful young ladies who were judged and here are the chosen 8 BB Top Models for 2014.
