Subject: I've only seen her in photos...hopefully, her training will bring her out of her shell. To be honest, she didn't really even look that thrilled about winning! lol Author: ECP [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] Date Posted: 13:05:17 06/15/10 Tue In reply to: JF 's message, "MUC 2010 results??" on 23:35:58 06/14/10 Mon [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ]

Subject Author Date Show was great ! Set Amazing - as for GTA always winning well they are just generally Better I have seen it 2 years now and GTA is a stronger group. AB- BC QU are not polished at all. Elena was really great last night - Prelims not so much. But she looked amazing and was on fire and had personality on stage. And I have seen that girl work a room and she works it like really really works it. Obviously it is not just based on Question cuz her answer was not great Alexs was better but Elena is much prettier no question. Alshley bad dress bad walk but Stunning... and I think Katie should have been top 5 but I am Bias, not Neda or Zara. Ania and Ava were also really amazing and I would have not questioned a top5 placement for them but you never know what the judges are thinking or seeing, I do not think it is predetermined as Elena and Alex were the strongest on stage that night. (NT) Michelle 15:43:56 06/15/10 Tue GTA contestants favored K. 12:05:03 06/16/10 Wed Is it possible that the huge price difference between GTA and the rest of the country is because the GTA girls compete in prelims and pay for that? I dotn know that they do pay to compete in the prelims, or how much it is, I'm just throwing it out there that it is a possibility. Perhaps there is an 'at large' fee and a seperate 'selected thru a preliminary' fee which would explain the differences. Does anyone know if and how much the prelim for GTA is? (NT) -- Christi, 20:45:10 06/16/10 Wed To my knowledge, GTA contestants pay $750 for the prelim, then if they make top 5 (top 10) they go to the nationals with no extra fees. Alberta pays $3500, the way this works is $2500 is the entry fee and then everyone who applies must pay $1000 training fee to interview for the pageant. BC is similar but I think they at one time hosted a prelim pageant not sure if it is still happening though. I can tell you that the contestants all wish they could pay for a prelim rather then a large interview fee. At least that way they get to expereince a pageant. GTA recieves so much more experience & training and that is why they ar ebetter prepped and keep winning. The other provinces don't have a chance to get as prepped. (NT) -- Calgary Pageant Fan, 17:50:16 06/17/10 Thu $1000 training fee?!?!?! And allthey get is an interview???? That is really wrong. If you are going to pay a training fee shouldnt you get trained? WHy not just say its $3500 and no training. At least thats upfront and fair. For $1000 'training' you would think those girls would be the best trained!!! (NT) -- Christi, 09:12:55 06/18/10 Fri They do get some training before the interview. But it is not the "best" training. It's simple runway practise and general tips. I mean if a girl has no modeling experience it's helpful but if they already have general knowledge about modeling it doesn't help them improve or make for top quality contenders. If it were a pageant at least they would get to practise stage presence and the stress of interviews. Most of the girls that I know who did the training weren't happy about the training fee, they wanted to compete. (NT) -- Calgary Pageant Fan, 20:21:48 06/18/10 Fri Sounds like the 'training fee' subsidises the GTA girls low fees. Somewhat unfair, yet if they want to compete they have to follow the criteria, and rules. (NT) -- Christi, 22:34:46 06/19/10 Sat dance segments Kaa K. & Suze-Ann 12:29:35 06/16/10 Wed the same contestants are in the middle or in the front because they dance better. the girls have only 2 days to learn the routines, and thos who cannot pick it up, they dance at the back -- no mistery here, 12:49:31 06/16/10 Wed dance segments -- Kara K. & Suze-Ann, 14:12:51 06/16/10 Wed Alphabetical Order -- Terri.
