And since we are in the subject of Asia’s Next Top Model in the previous post, allow me to herald the big return of Top Model Philippines on local TV via ABS-CBN. While there was already a previous local adaptation back in 2007 (Philippines Next Top Model won by Grendel Alvarado) on the now defunct RPN-9 and a supposed second adaptation (but altogether cancelled before auditions) of Top Model Philippines on the ETC cable channel last 2012, this will be a totally fresh take on the reality model search that has made Tyra Banks a global name. Trust the network to inject its own innovations that might even surprise the original American host and creator of the same.
Audition dates and venues have yet to be finalized, but I will blog them as soon as all the details are provided. But one thing is for sure. Anne Curtis will be the host (actually, I would have preferred a taller lady like Bea Alonzo, but oh well…) and this should keep her away from doing all those sold-out concerts at the Araneta Coliseum in the meantime. 😉
Its already 2015 where are the update?
There is nothing to update about the show really.
Hmm. Totoo na ba ‘to? Natuwa pa naman ako dun sa naunang lineup ng etc (Sarah, Michael, Rissa, and Sean). Sana si Sarah Meier na lang yung host. Hindi ko kasi feel yung pagkamodel ni Anne. Pwede rin si Georgina. I think kahit ano namang gawin ng abscbn, mas maganda pa rin to dun sa cycle ni Ruffa! Haha
C georgina na i think as per her photo on instagram…
Georgina’s update never mentioned TOP MODEL PHILIPPINES…
@ilovegeorgina
I’ve been SO excited about this announcement and been keeping it for months now! Extremely honored to be hosting ASIA’S NEXT TOP MODEL!!!!!!!!!! Career milestone!!!!🙌
Hello po… hintay ko po update about the date and venue for the audition:)
i hope 100 % SURE na tuloy. can’t wait!!!!
Angel Aquino can be one of the judges then 🙂 mas posible yun di po ba.
That’s more like it. 😉
ok siguro kung si angel aquino ang host. magaling naman sya na host sa F at top model pa talaga.
Agree. But ABS-CBN will not take a risk on her, I reckon.
Sadness.
Not necessarily. But I hope they do. Season 3 is now casting, so baka di na makaabot.
Thanks for this post Norman.
You’re welcome! 🙂
BONGA!!!! I laughed so hard at the last sentence of your post Tito Norms! Hahaha!
It just popped in my head while writing the post.
Actually really excited for this show now. I’m happy that it’s not Ruffa hosting it because I just don’t like her appeal in general, but I think it’s great that Anne Curtis who’s hosting it. She’s a great host and is the face of a lot of renowned Pinoy designers!
Bonggels yan Tito Norm. 🙂 by the way, any news po with regard to Jonas’ previous IG post re ABSCBN? 🙂
