Hi Huneybees,
Aspiring models and those hungry to get more of their model-themed reality television fix can look forward to the premiere of “The Face” on DIVA Universal on August 26, every Monday at 8pm.
Set in New York City, iconic fashion supermodels, Naomi Campbell, Karolina Kurkova and Coco Rocha play mentors and will handpick teams of 12 model wannabes. They will then coach and pit them against the models on the other teams until eventually, one is chosen as “The Face”.
Each week, the girls face test shoot challenges, individual challenges, and team campaigns as part of the grueling competition to be the new ambassador of a beauty brand. Hosted by Nigel Barker (“America’s Next Top Model”), the contestants include mothers, students, models and former pageant winners from the US, Canada, China and Australia.
While plenty of tears and nail-biting catfight drama is expected, especially from Naomi Campbell who is infamous for her tantrums, the contestants are also closely coached by their mentors on what it takes to be a top model- from knowing your best sides for the camera, how to strut on the runway and taking that perfect picture.
To get viewers involved with “The Face”, DIVA is seeking viewers to watch and tweet about the show. A fashion and beauty shopping spree worth US$1000 will be rewarded to two grand winners and 16 weekly prizes will be up for grabs once the show starts on DIVA.
To participate, viewers will have to tune-in to “The Face” on the channel and look out for “ACCESS CODE” displayed during the episode, and answer a mandatory question to be eligible for the contest. Participants will then answer a series of questions related to the episode. To double up their chances of winning, they are encouraged to follow DIVA Universal’s twitter page, tweet about the contest, refer a friend on Facebook and complete an online poll.
About The Face
Couture combat: Sharpen your stilettos and bring on the poses – its officially war as three of the world’s biggest supermodels fight it out to see who can find the new face of ULTA beauty, one of the fastest growing beauty retailers in America. 12 girls from around the world – with help from their three experienced coaches, Naomi Campbell, Karolina Kurkova and Coco Rocha – go through a series of photo shoots and runway shows to keep from getting eliminated.
It’s all about high heels and high stakes as tempers flare when the contestants start living together, navigate tricky challenges such as walking in couture bridal gowns on a grand staircase and the pressure never stops mounting. Which of the 12 girls can hold her own and come out tops? Hosted by fashion photographer Nigel Barker (former judge on America’s Next Top Model), The Face takes you deep into the world of fashion and promises to scintillate and entertain. So grab your front seats, but keep a safe distance. Because when a bevy of beauties slug it out, you can bet the results are anything but pretty!
