We're walking along in this blinding heat and have absolutely no idea what we're doing .

Is this a challenge?
It was definitely not what I was expecting.
Oh my God! What is happening!
Oh!
Shikin and Tu and Monika!
That's the moment I realised
"Oh my God! I'm on Asia's Next Top Model.
For real."
Hello girls! And welcome.
I'm Shikin from Cycle 5.
I'm Tu, from Cycle 5.
And I'm Monika from Cycle 3.
We are here as your alumni mentors.
To guide you through the next few weeks of the competition.
And they're going to mentor us this cycle.
Oh my God! So amazing!
This is the first time ever in Top Model history
where the top model alumni have been brought back here
to mentor the new contestants.
The advice you'll get from us will be invaluable
and we hope you will use this to your benefit.
I'm a person who if you want me to jump, I will jump.
If you want me to scream, I scream.
I will do whatever you want,
without any hesitation.
Are you girls ready for Asia's Next Top Model Cycle 6?
First time I look at the contestants.
Wow! They're all gorgeous in their own way.
It's nerve wracking but come on!
This is Asia's Next Top Model.
They're not going to bring you an ugly bitch, you know?
For sure I'm going to fight for it.
And so, it begins,
in a brand new location...
Here we are, in the vibrant city of Bangkok.
14 girls on a quest to be on top.
This is a competition, this isn't a game.
I'm going to do whatever it takes.
You got to step up now.
But before they prove worthy of the Top Model title,
-they will be pushed. -Oh my God!
Beyond limits.
Welcome to life, ladies.
-Oh! -Oh my God,
-everything is so crazy. -Look at me!
Not everything is going to go exactly as you pictured it.
Let's go!
Don't push the buildings.
-Oh! Sorry, sorry! -She fainted!
-Relax! Relax! -What the hell is going on?
-Don't say I'm the bitch. -You gang up on me
-Do not twist my words. -You yell at me.
There's a divide in the house.
Between friendships or the competition,
-I will choose the competition. -Who run the world?
-Me! -This is the time...
-to bring your A game. -You've got to do something.
You have to show that you deserve to win.
-There's no turning back. -How much do you want this?
-I will face it. -Yes!
You have the power to be amazing.
-Wow! -Oh my God!
-Show us what you got girl! -Own it! Own it! Own it!
Love!
This is the survival of the fittest.
Their journey starts now.
I'm Pim.
I'm half British, half Thai.
I started modelling four years ago.
I joined this competition because
I want to step outside my comfort zone.
I want to push myself more.
I am also a karate black belt.
So, don't mess with me.
Hi! My name's Beauty,
I'm 22 years old and I'm from Myanmar.
I started modelling, it's been five months.
I know that it's a lot of expectation
but I want to win this.
Hi! My name is Adela-Mae Marshall.
I am British Filipino.
I've come so close
to making it big before by finishing second place
in another modelling competition
and I feel like maybe that didn't happen
because I was meant for this.
I'm Jesslyn.
I'm 26 years old and I come from Indonesia.
So I've been in the modelling world for 13 years.
Half of my life.
I really, really, really want to be
the winner of the Asia's Next Top Model.
I'm super ready.
I see Cindy.
I'm dying inside.
Like, oh my goodness. Goosebumps.
Welcome ladies!
To Asia's Next Top Model Cycle 6!
At the rooftop of the Bangkok Marriott The Surawongse!
Here we are in the bustling and vibrant city of Bangkok.
My beloved hometown.
And I couldn't be more thrilled
to be able to host this cycle in a place
that is so close to my heart!
Soon, you will be embarking
on one of the toughest competitions in your life!
This will be a true test of your strength
and your resilience.
I work in modelling to support my family
since I was 12 years old.
I want to change my life.
I need to fight everyday, every challenge.
I don't want to be a boring girl anymore.
You've already met our returning alumni mentors.
And as they guide you through the next few weeks,
their feedback to me will be crucial in my decision
on who stays and who goes.
Ladies, I am on a mission,
to find the next It Girl.
A girl with the never say die attitude.
A true Top Model.
The other girls are a lot more experienced than I am.
My strategy is just fake it.
Fake it till you make it. Absolutely.
All I can say ladies, is that in this cycle,
be prepared to be pushed beyond limits.
And on that note ladies,
welcome to Bangkok Thailand
and welcome to Asia's Next Top Model Cycle 6!
I think I'm ready.
I really want to push myself beyond what I can do right now.
But please not to my breaking point.
Off you go ladies! Yu Tsai's waiting.
Oh my God!
I just keep hearing the drums.
I can feel that beating in my heart too.
Who would do a challenge in Chatuchak?
So unexpected!
Models, models models!
Yu Tsai, Yu Tsai, Yu Tsai!
Welcome to Chatuchak Market in Bangkok!
You are the main star in this Catwalk Selfie Challenge.
Wow! Catwalk Selfie?
As soon as I heard 'catwalk',
it was just like "Oh.."
Catwalk and taking photos of myself.
Two things I'm not good at!
You're going to be strutting your stuff down the runway
with this Huawei P20 Pro phone
and when you get down to the end of the runway,
time to take some selfies.
By the end of this challenge,
two of you will be going home.
Two? Oh God. What?
Two girls? It's so brutal.
I really don't want to be the first one to go home.
It's just started!
This is the first time in Top Model history
that alumni mentors are back
to mentor new contestants.
It's an honour!
Really, really such a big honour.
My approach to being a model mentor
would be to feel like a big sister to them.
I will be there to snap them back.
To give them that go-getter attitude.
I'm opening the show. I want to impress.
My previous achievement is coming onto this competition.
I hope I can prove to the people
who have believed in me, right.
So I had a story in my head.
Energetic Summer Girl.
And I love it.
This is a dream come true.
I won't let anyone get in my way to the top.
So I have to win.
This is the beginning.
One mistake, you will just stumble down.
And I can't let that happen.
Oh my God. This is like my dream come true.
I'm like so excited.
Like finally I'm here. I'm just like "Yes!"
When I was walking down the runway,
it was such a rush.
The drums going around.
I've never had so many people look at me at once.
Mind you, I was just like "Oh..."
Even though I did fall over,
I still kept my confidence going.
Catwalk is my weakness.
But it's a challenge so I had to get through it.
Okay girl, let's do this. Let's kill the runway.
I'm just killing it! Killing it!
Believe me, I bring everything.
Even though you didn't ask, I'll bring it.
I'm walking down the catwalk
and I'm interacting with the drummers.
I'm having a good time.
There's definitely a lot of pressure to do the catwalk
but with each step that I'm taking,
I'm strong, I'm confident.
I definitely want to stand out.
I want to be on Asia's Next Top Model
because I've been watching since Cycle 1
and I feel so lucky. I am actually here right now.
I'm ready to do whatever it takes
to win this competition.
I will not focus on making friends too much.
Hey!
I want to get rid of everyone.
This is the first challenge so,
no I'm not going to go home.
Not today.
I am definitely feeling the pressure now.
Knowing that two would have to leave.
I have to remember that I'm here to win.
-Hello ladies! -Hi!
Congratulations on your first challenge.
I have in hands a list of our top 12.
If your names are not on the list,
I'm sorry. You must leave immediately.
Good luck girls.
I just looked at my name and I was like,
that's me! I'm okay!
I was the fourth person there.
I was like really relieved.
And then I look for the missing person,
like, who's missing here?
Me.
No!
When I didn't find my name on the paper,
I feel like I'm disappointed.
But I have done my best.
Maybe the other girls have done better.
There's one more.
You? Oh really?
I was like double checking the board.
I was like "Wait! Where's my name?
Where's my name?"
I'm pretty sure I've got more to show, you know?
Good luck guys!
Being in top 12 is really great,
but it's just top 12.
You have to be better than this.
The next challenge, I'll give my very best.
This is not Rubini. There's more.
So we're walking down this driveway,
we turn the corner and we see this...
gorgeous, modern, grey house.
The cool architecture. Beautiful.
Oh my God!
My excitement is just like gone crazy!
Look, frames!
There's a wall with all the best photo of the week,
ready to be filled by...
me!
Pool!
The swimming pool!
I can have time to relax!
Here we go!
I need to claim a bed
so I end up running into the first bedroom.
And claiming one of the top bunks there.
The girls all kind of went crazy.
We just tried to dibs the beds first.
We call it the kiddie's room.
That's all the young girls banded together.
Let's go!
So I run to the second room.
And ta-dah!
Second room's got the big bed.
All the girls take these mattress on the floor
and take the bunk bed.
So I get the biggest bed,
with Mia.
I'm sharing my bed with someone
whom I didn't think I would share a bed with ever,
in this lifetime, which is Jess!
She really scared me in the beginning
cause she's so confident.
She's like "Hello! I'm here! I entered the room!"
I'm like, Oh my goodness.
She's like overpowering!
I can't believe I have a phone!
Look at this!
So the first thing my eyes jumped to
is like Christmas on every single bed.
It's like "Oh my God! What is that?"
Open it!
It's a phone! Huawei P20 Pro.
Oh my God! Phone!
This Huawei P20 Pro has got an amazing
-Leica Triple Camera. -Yeah.
Estatica has given us some
face masks, sunscreen, serums.
That's all going to help us take care of our skin
during the competition.
This hand woven fabric.
We get this beautiful, traditional Thai Pacoma scarf.
And it's so soft, so beautiful.
And we're all planning how we can style it.
Different ways to tie it.
I'm actually so happy with my room.
I would call us the loud room.
And I think we're fun but maybe
other people don't think we're very fun.
That is a lie.
The girls around me, they're pretty loud.
I don't like having too much noise around.
Especially when I want some alone time.
I feel stressed when I'm not able to keep up with them.
So I'll be better off
with the other girls in the other room.
-Is it a single bed? -Yeah, it is.
It is the bottom bunk.
-Okay. Can! If you want to. -Yay!
Han asked "Rubi can you switch with me?"
Yes! Thank you!
I feel I'm more connected to the girls in the other room.
I'm moving in here!
Somehow I think our vibe is the same.
So I guess I feel like that was more my space
compared to the quiet, sweet girls room.
Hey! Hi!
We are enjoying a moment in our room.
Girls! Come on out!
Let's go! Let's go girls!
So my face is like "What now?"
Welcome to the Model House.
So Cindy has assessed all of you
and decided which of us
will mentor you through the next few weeks.
I'm a really big fan of Monika.
I think she's the sweetest girl.
But as far as competition goes,
I think Shikin is a bit more fierce.
So I think that might actually be better for me.
For Team Tu.
Adela, Beauty, Pim, Han.
For Team Shikin.
Vy, Sharnie, Jac and Mia.
For Team Monika.
There's Jesslyn, Iko,
Dana and Rubini.
Alright girls! Let's have a chat.
I'm so happy I got you girls!
Oh my gosh!
I've been through your shoes
and I know exactly what you're going through.
In case you have anything you want to talk about,
if you feel like something's getting you down.
Come talk to me.
I'm definitely not going to be nice throughout.
I'm going to give you some tough love.
Remember! This is a competition.
Everyone of you are competing against each other.
I'm really happy that I got Shikin as a mentor.
I think I need to redeem myself
from what happened in the challenge.
So I need that tough but loving guidance
to bring me back up.
As early as now in the competition,
and I wish I knew this before,
you need to be more than just a model.
Nowadays, brands look at you as a personality.
How do you deal with your insecurity?
The beautiful thing about it is it makes you unique.
Talk about it and people will relate to you.
Because you're not perfect.
If you act perfect, brands or audiences
will not be supportive of you
because you don't feel real.
It's okay to be afraid
or feel insecure,
as long as you overcome it.
What Monika said gives me courage.
And I'm so glad that she was my mentor.
Pim, you're like me last season,
a little bit bitchy.
I was thinking "I am not a bitch
but I do get bitchy moments".
Your face, like you need to know,
what side's good for high fashion.
What side's good for commercial.
-Beauty! -Yes!
You are too shy!
I know!
When Tu said that I'm too shy,
I almost cried.
I don't know why.
I love your face.
Because your face,
the designer and photographer will love.
Oh my God, I want to cry.
I want to learn how to be strong and confident.
I like her attitude. I want to have that.
Cindy Mail!
Hello ladies!
I trust that you've had a good meeting
with your alumni mentors.
At the end of each week,
your challenge scores will be combined...
with your photo shoot scores
in order to determine who stays and who goes.
As you've successfully completed your first catwalk challenge,
here's where you stand at this point.
Good luck girls!
-I'm like, sweating. -Ooh! My God
The competition is on!
Beauty!
Jesslyn, top two!
Second place! Woo hoo!
I mean I aim for first place,
-but, I guess... -Watch out for Beauty!
-You're on top babe. -Wow! Beauty!
She's always like "I don't know!"
Such a lucky girl!
You don't know anything but then
you come out at first place?
Good job!
I was bottom two.
And I'm pretty stressed.
There's so much pressure on me,
because I'm at the bottom.
So I need to do well to be safe from elimination.
Guys! Cindy Mail!
Come in! Come in, come in, come in!
Come take a walk on the wild side.
You just might be surprised!
Love, Cindy!
Elephant?
Elephants?
Everyone starts speculating.
Is it elephants, is it rhinos?
That makes me even more nervous
and I'm just trying not to listen.
Just focus! Focus!
Going to the first photo shoot,
I am going to be as confident as I can.
Cut everything out
and just be like I'm going to do my best and you better like it!
Models, models, models!
Yu Tsai, Yu Tsai, Yu Tsai!
Welcome to your very first photo shoot.
You're in for a beauty shoot with a twist.
Oh my God!
What!
Monika is holding an iguana.
Shikin is holding a crocodile.
And Tu is holding a big ass snake.
I was just like "What the hell!"
I was like "Oh shit! Oh shit! Oh shit!"
I'm praying to God
that it will not be any kind of reptiles or snake!
That's right models!
Today's theme for the photo shoot is "Wild Things".
Each of you will be paired up
with one of these amazing, beautiful, creatures.
This beauty jewellery photo shoot,
is not for the faint-hearted.
I still expect all of you to hold your composure
and exude cool, attitude of fearless.
Alright, you guys ready to find out
who you going to paired up with?
Please don't say my name.
Please just suddenly forget my name.
I'm not even here please.
Jachin, Rubini, Pim and Dana.
You're going to be shooting with...
the sexy snake.
I am shivering. I got the snake.
For my photo shoot.
Ta-dah!
Beauty, Adela, Jesslyn and Vy.
You're going with the spiky iguana.
Alright?
Sharnie, Iko, Han and Mia.
You're going to be with the cool crocodile.
I really tried to control myself to not cry.
I'm really scared of those animals.
At first Han showed she's very scared.
I would like to try to bring out
the confidence a little bit more.
I just think they're really so disgusting.
I know everyone has phobias
but this one is just the first challenge.
You need to believe in yourself.
You can do it!
She tells me to turn my fear into fierce poses,
which I think makes a lot of sense.
I know I'm going to use her advice
during the photo shoot.
Being the first girl,
it creates a big pressure on you.
And you need to set a really high benchmark
and Yu Tsai is expecting that.
Just remember,
when you get on set, you're not Rubi.
You are an Amazonian Queen
and this Queen is not afraid of snakes.
Okay.
Rubini, you're up.
This is your photographer for today. Tim Punsiri.
-Yes. Nice to meet you. -Hi. Hello.
So today, coming to the set.
I'm here to show that I am fearless.
I really want to be someone different.
To be strong.
To be confident with the snake on.
Alright Rubini,
your time starts now.
Remember you're supposed to be fierce right?
You're a wild thing.
Move! Glide!
The snake moves a lot.
And you need a shot with the snake's face.
And that was the hardest for me.
Where is the light?
Chin down! Chin down!
Gorgeous right there.
Listen to the photographer.
He's told you chin down about 10 times!
Snake! Body! Light!
-Yu Tsai! -Don't look at me!
-Look at the camera! -I couldn't really focus.
And Yu Tsai was pissed.
You don't move! Why are you?
-Why are you moving? -Sorry!
-Do you want me to help you? -Yes! Yes!
Rubi! Calm down!
Calm! Slow down! You gotta just...
That's beautiful! Take it!
Gorgeous! Can you give me eyes that's stronger?
There you go!
I'm proud of Rubini.
Just because I know that
she did fight her fear of snakes.
That's what I'm talking about!
But it's not good enough.
If she's safe then next week,
she needs to give more.
Beauty! You're up! There you go!
-Hold it like this? -Yeah!
There you go! You're doing great!
-Oh my God! -It's okay!
I got iguana.
It's like, why me? Why? Why me?
I'm talking to myself "Okay, you're going to be fine.
You're going to be okay.
Just don't look at it."
Go.
Gorgeous! Gorgeous!
Model through that fear.
Beautiful!
Actually I'm proud of myself that I act like I'm not scared.
Actually I'm just faking it.
Alright Vy!
When I walked in, he let me kiss the iguana.
Alright!
And I feel that "Okay! We'll fall in love now!"
Beautiful!
Your co-star's working with you!
Good! Look at that!
I think he likes me!
Sharnie, you ready?
I get into my first pose.
And I feel like I'm doing good.
I feel like I've got the crocodile under control.
It needs to be more alive!
And then I can just see Yu Tsai's face
starting to get a little bit crankier and crankier.
Come on! Get mad a little.
Growl!
Hey, hey, hey!
Hey! I was serious!
I was like "How would I growl?"
That was weird!
Scream! And yell! And growl!
All of it in one.
It was so frustrating.
All of us were standing there thinking
"Just do it! How hard is it girl?"
Just seeing her freeze like that.
It was so, so frustrating.
I'll wait.
Scream! And yell. And growl.
All of it in one.
I'll wait.
There was so much pressure
with all the other models watching.
And the mentors watching.
And Yu Tsai just standing there.
It was really, really, really intimidating.
Scream!
Alright, you're done! Thank you!
I was a little bit disappointed when Sharnie
couldn't maintain her emotions.
I need to toughen her up for sure
because it's not going to get any easier from here on out.
Alright Pim.
I knew I would get the snake.
That's one of my biggest phobias.
So in my head the whole time I'm thinking
I have to be fearless and strong.
-Do you need help? -Nope! I can do this.
Okay!
Chin down Pim. Look at me.
Strong eyes, strong face.
I'm shaking!
Remember it's your co-star!
The snake was going everywhere.
It was just doing its own thing.
Why don't you look at the snake's face
and scream at it. Ready? One, two, three.
I want to hear it!
Scream with a snake around me?
What if the snake gets scared?
What if it bites me?
What if it just goes "Hiss!"
No. Not funny!
Make it editorial! Make it fashion!
There you go!
Nice Mia!
Warrior! Wild thing! Come on!
Good. That's nice!
Good.
The crocodile has very smooth, cold, scaly skin.
It's not as gross as I thought it would be.
But the eyes give me the creeps!
I want fierce! Don't go soft!
Alright! Good job!
-Hi! -Hi!
Calm down. Breathe!
Listen to what Yu Tsai has to say.
His input is always good. Because he can see.
I'll be like this the whole time.
Don't worry.
Working with Yu Tsai,
can seem to intimidate contestants
but he's a very good coach
and it's very important to listen to him.
Ooh!
-It's heavy! -Pretty big! And heavy!
Damn! That's a heavy snake!
-Tim's your photographer! -It's hissing.
I was already like overthinking.
Calm. Calm energy.
I started to relax and then
the snake suddenly relaxed as well.
We're like sharing our minds.
-Beautiful! -Nice.
Beautiful! Go! Go! Go! Gorgeous!
Look at me!
Alright Dana! You're up!
Sit down. Keep straight!
-Look at me! Beautiful. -Don't get lost. Come back to me!
Oh my god! The snake is crazy heavy!
Do you feel lost?
Because I feel lost!
So let's regroup.
Worry about you. I'll worry about the snake!
So I'm just trying to stay calm.
And I'm just trying to find all the little puzzle pieces
and put it all together.
The shape is really good!
I want to be strong. Be regal.
That's it!
-Thank you very much! -Thank you!
Jesslyn, you're up! Show me what you've got.
Remember! Statement jewellery pieces!
Mamma Mia!
As soon as that iguana landed on me,
it was like running around.
I feel like my heart beating so hard, man!
Oh! Careful! Careful!
This iguana just like scratch my forehead,
pull my earrings. You know?
Suck it up Jesslyn! Suck it up!
Stronger! Perfection is boring!
I like weird shapes.
Jesslyn?
I feel like her experience has made her...
a little bit too robotic?
She needs to control her face
instead of relying on habits.
Alright Han! You're up!
The moment I stepped into the set,
I thought that I could do it,
but the moment I see the crocodile,
my mind became a blank.
Just break down.
See? It's not so bad!
It's not so bad.
It's warm.
It's like cold and then in the middle it's warm.
And then I just... I just can't hold it any more.
I don't even know what I was thinking.
I assure you, it won't bite you.
Okay? That I can assure you.
I managed to just compose myself
and get used to the fact that this crocodile is...
-is weird. -You okay?
Not so bad right?
There we go! Nice! Nice!
Now are you scared still? Are you scared still?
-No! -That's right! Let's go!
Han really showed the attitude of a professional model today!
So I'm really proud of her!
Adela!
The iguana, is not comfortable on me.
It's okay, I'm nice!
There you go!
I don't know whether it senses
that I'm not comfortable with it either?
But it's just not staying in one place.
Let him jump down. He'll go back up.
Oh!!
You okay?
Did it hurt your eyes or is it water?
This is the worst possible thing
that could have happened to me in the first photo shoot.
All of that confidence that I built up in myself is gone.
Fight through it!
Make this pain work for you! Yes!
There it is! Adela, you're doing great!
The last but not least, Iko!
Working with Yu Tsai, I feel bigger pressure.
Define what the story is.
I have to show that I'm strong.
I just do my best and let it flow.
Beautiful! Love! Challenge the camera!
Challenge it!
2, 1. And that's a wrap you guys!
Good job! Oh!
It's tough to say who's going to go home
because everyone else looks pretty strong.
So we'll have to see what happens.
Hi! You look amazing!
I now have a better idea on how to mentor the girls
and I definitely can help work to improve them
for the weeks to come.
All of my girls have potential.
I need to push their confidence
and share with them
how to deal with every challenge.
Now it's time to really think of what they can do better
for the next round if they're still here.
Welcome ladies!
To your very first elimination.
To say this week has been an eventful one
would be an understatement.
But before we see who made their first impressions count,
let me first introduce you to your judges.
First up, we have singer and actress Celina Jade Jade.
She played the female lead in "Wolf Warrior II,
China's biggest box office grossing movie to date.
She is also known as Shadow
in the hit American TV series "Arrow".
Celina will also star in the upcoming Chinese comedy
"Hello, Mrs. Money".
And the English action film "Triple Threat".
The ever radiant Celina Jade.
Good luck girls! It's an honour to be here.
And of course, our Creative Director,
Yu Tsai.
Models, models, models!
Yu Tsai, Yu Tsai, Yu Tsai!
And now ladies, to your prizes!
The winner of Asia's Next Top Model
will drive home the all new Subaru XV.
She will have a fashion spread
and grace the cover of Harper's Bazaar Thailand.
She will also become a featured avatar
in the America's Next Top Model new mobile game.
And she will be represented by top model agency...
Storm Model Management
which has launched the careers of successful models
and talent including the likes of
Lottie Moss and Fran Summers.
Alright ladies! Let's get started
First up, let's have Adela.
Let's see how you did.
Adela, Adela, Adela. How's your eye?
It's okay now.
Ooh!
It's hard working with animals
and especially when you're afraid.
You were really trying to give it
but because you were so scared,
it actually looked like fear.
All the way through your edit.
This picture is not so perfect on brief.
What I love the most is how beautiful you actually look.
Beautiful photo. You neck is still stiff.
You can see that fear there.
Yeah, Adela, I think, this is the first week.
It's going to get harder than this, trust me.
It's all about going beyond limits,
breaking through your fear.
Unfortunately your fear came across.
-Thank you Adela. -Thank you!
Next, can we have Beauty.
When you got on set,
you were so, so, so nervous.
I started getting nervous for you.
I actually...
love this picture.
This shot only happened when you forgot the iguana was there.
I love it.
Even though the iguana's like clawing at your neck
and yet you still come across as fearless and fierce.
And the jewellery is very well showcased.
I feel like if I were a jewellery client,
I'd be very happy with that.
Beauty, I would have liked to see
a little bit more energy in your eyes.
You are giving us fierce,
but a little bit more.
-Thank you so much. -Thank you Beauty.
Dana.
How were you on set?
A little lost at times.
We couldn't find you.
The photographer was so lost.
You give me that stare,
all of a sudden as you're ready to click,
then she went somewhere else
because she didn't have the confidence of it.
Dana, you have sleepy eyes.
And it's something that can work to your advantage.
You just need to learn how to control it.
There's a time to be seductive and sleepy
but then you've got to also be able to turn it up
and give us energy.
That being said, I love this photo.
We don't know where you end and the python starts.
-You're one with the snake. -Thank you!
Han!
The shot came like this...
Cause just couldn't stop shaking.
But when you got there.
When the crocodile became one with you,
it was magical.
And that's what I wanted.
I wanted that fear, turned into fierce.
You have such a strong face.
It's the kind of face I see on Paris runways.
But you're so fragile!
This is a beautiful photo.
So you're able to deliver.
You just need to trust in yourself.
Throw yourself into the deep end, honey.
-Thank you! -Let's have Iko please.
Beautiful face.
My attention kind of goes to the crocodile's perverted smile.
Well, he just ran over her.
-Of course! -No, I mean,
look at that crocodile! It's got this like...
"I'm on your back!"
So, if that's the case,
it tells me that perhaps you chose something
that's a little too safe.
It could be edgier.
I think you let the pressure get to you
and unfortunately, your co-star outshone you.
You have to be able to balance each other's energy
and don't get drowned out.
Find a way to make yourself memorable.
Thank you Iko.
Jachin!
Hello judges!
I kind of, love it!
She's a wild thing!
Because she's sexy and she's in the forest,
she's dangerous.
I think this is really interesting
because I see you here and you're like...
the sweetest, cutest girl!
And yet that girl is super sexy!
That's cool for me.
To have two sides.
I see passion. I see Amazonian Queen.
I see Wild Thing.
The only thing though is...
I need you to remember how you got there.
And be able to get there every time.
Thank you judges!
Can we have Rubini please?
When I saw that photo?
The first thing I wanted to know was,
what was your mantra?
What are you doing this for?
What are you fighting for?
Coming here in the competition
was really hard for me.
I lost my brother.
I just lost him a few months ago.
Everything kind of stumble again.
I was the first girl for this shoot.
And I was really nervous.
I have not touched a snake before.
I was trying really hard to not show it in my face.
I was just focusing to give that photo, so badly.
And I want to do this for my family and my brother.
You have an experience that is so monumental.
And that's an experience that belongs to you and no one else.
But you have to channel that feeling.
Rubini, you've just shown us
that you're able to own whatever it is.
Your fear. You imperfections.
Your sadness. Your amazing story
and deliver that.
Honey, that is stunning.
I've got goosebumps now.
I love this photo.
I don't even care about the jewellery
I don't care about the snake.
I don't care about any of it.
I care about what's in your eyes.
Thank you Rubini.
Jesslyn.
Looking at this photo, Jesslyn,
I would not have known you have
thirteen years of experience, honey.
You have bandanna, you have frizzy hair.
You've got all this jewellery,
you've got a shawl, you've got an iguana,
you've got this eye make-up that looks like a mask.
A seasoned model would know
"Okay, there's a lot going on here.
I'm going to have to drop this down
so it gives me a little bit more shape.
I've got a lot going on in my face,
it looks a little bit like a mask,
maybe I need to angle and give me profile
so it's not competing with the tiger eyes on my scarf."
You need to take a step,
take a moment, check yourself.
You have to have a game plan.
Thank you Jesslyn.
Next up, let's have Mia.
The photo draws your attention straight to your eyes
and that's a success.
This is a gorgeous photo.
You're giving us Indigenous Queen.
You're selling the jewellery,
you're selling the make-up.
You've got the crocodile as your pet but there's...
It could have been that much better.
There's a sweetness about you.
But I wanted you to be fierce.
If you did bring that screaming,
fierce element to it,
you would have rocked that even more.
Thank you Mia.
Pim.
If I were just to read the photo,
you look annoyed.
And you have such beautiful features.
That's what's disappointing.
To not see that beauty
transcribed on that screen.
You actually show up with this attitude which I despise.
I know what I'm doing, I don't need your help.
I got this.
But you know what, if you'd bought it, shut me up,
I would have loved it.
You look like a gardener,
watering plants.
You like to be in control
but there's a time and a place for it.
And when you're on set,
you need to be able to listen.
Thank you Pim.
Next, let's have Sharnie please.
Why do you look so sad?
I felt a little pressure this week.
I completely froze
and didn't listen to what Yu Tsai had to say at all.
I think I was thinking more about
what everyone else was thinking about me
rather than concentrating on what I had to do
and what Yu Tsai had to say to me.
I don't even want to judge the picture.
Because everything that came with it,
it doesn't tell me that you can book a job right now.
Can you do those things that I ask of you on set?
Yell!
Where was that girl?
That's the girl that I know could have given me an amazing shot.
You froze, and you stopped.
Honey, if you're afraid of looking bad,
this is the wrong industry for you.
You're going to have to be able
to break out of that cocoon.
That breaking, that growing is painful.
But we have to go there.
Especially if we want to go far.
The great thing about modelling, girls.
Is if you survive this industry,
I promise you you'll survive anything in life.
I've been modelling since I was 14 years old
and trust me they've said it all!
You look too white! You look too Chinese!
Your hips are too wide! You're too short!
Your skin...Everything!
You just have to tell yourself, you know what?
They're looking for a different look.
But that strength that you build through modelling,
is the most precious gift!
Now fly like a butterfly back there!
Thanh Vy.
Oh, he's on your head!
She looks like a dowager!
She's like, I own this land.
I love the composition in this shot.
I love the iguana's on top of your head.
I love the weird little awkward body position that you're in.
It's this, I don't really care,
but I'm still cool.
And that to me is fierce.
I love the photo.
The only thing would be your leg position.
To kind of parallel them more towards the camera
so they look more elongated.
Vy, you're one of the smallest girls
in the competition this year.
But you know what?
You don't look small in this photo.
It works. Thank you Vy.
Okay ladies,
it is now time to add your challenge scores
to your photoshoot scores.
And when you return I'll be announcing
who is still in the running toward becoming...
Asia's Next Top Model.
And which one of you...
will be going home.
12 gorgeous girls stand before me
but I only have 11 photos in my hands.
And these photos represent the girls
who are still in the running towards becoming...
Asia's Next Top Model.
The first name I call
is the girl who has the best performance of the week.
Beauty.
Beauty you really are our diamond in the rough.
Just need to polish up the edges a little bit.
Congratulations!
You're still in the running towards becoming...
Asia's Next Top Model.
Thank you! Thank you, thank you.
Mia.
You're really impressing me this fisrt week.
Congratulations!
Rubini.
Congratulations!
Jachin.
You're still in the running towards becoming...
Asia's Next Top Model.
Dana.
Congratulations!
Iko!
Congratulations!
Thank you.
Adela.
-Congratulations. -Thank you.
Vy.
-Congratulations! -Thank you
Han.
Han, your challeng scores
is why you're here at the bottom.
You know what you need to work on.
Pim.
Pim, I'm honestly so disappointed to see you here
because I know you can do so much better.
Will Jesslyn and Sharnie
please step forward.
Two gorgeous girls stand before me...
but I only have one photo in my hands.
Jesslyn, you're here...
because despite being
the most experienced girl in this competition,
you did not deliver when it mattered the most.
Sharnie,
you let the fear get the better of you this week.
In this competition you have to be able to control it
and break through it.
So, which one of you stays?
And which one will be going home today?
It's time to find out.
Congratulations Jesslyn.
You're still in the running towards becoming...
Asia's Next Top Model.
Thank you.
You need to be able to find that courage.
Spread your wings, honey.
I'll be watching you, okay?
Thank you.
Say goodbye.
I feel like I've ruined a really special opportunity
and I'm really disappointed in myself for that.
Wish I could just go back in time
and have that confidence to not care
about what the other girls are thinking.
I think it's a huge achievement
to be chosen to be a part of 14 girls all over Asia.
So I'm really proud of that.
Guys, this is the place.
Are you ready to check them out?
Let's see what we have this cycle.
Next time on Asia's Next Top Model.
What is happening?
They don't want to tell me anything!
A big change is in store.
I'm so angry!
So you're going to start crying now?
As a disturbing secret cuts deep.
Do you guys think she's talking about us.
Exactly! She's two faces!
That is not cool, man!
That is not cool!
It's boring. You've got to do something!
And when limits are pushed...
I try so hard.
The competition gets ugly.
So you're saying like I'm the bitch here.
Whole gang but can you take me down?
