The modeling world is extremely
competitive and highly stressful. It’s daunting enough to make your move into
the ever-evolving industry - to do it on a regional scale in a competition
against the top young talent in Asia is another thing altogether.
Now in the second half of this
cycle of Asia’s Next Top Model, only 5 of the original 14 models remain. After
a shocking premiere episode that saw the departure of 3 AsNTM hopefuls, each
week the contestants have been faced with a challenge designed to push their
limits and test their modeling prowess.
Filipina contestants have
historically performed well throughout the previous five cycles of the show,
most notably when Maureen Wroblewitz won the competition just last season.
Jachin, who rose to the occasion and won the Swan Lake-inspired photo shoot
challenge in week 2, has consistently turned strong performances
week-after-week alongside fellow Pinay, Adela.
Jachin, who was
eliminated in episode 6, describes her experience in the competition as “really
fun and challenging. Definitely the most challenging thing I’ve ever done so
far in my life.” She added, “I’m glad [that I joined] the show, not just
because I learned a lot and gained quite some experience, but also because I’ve
met a lot of amazing girls around Asia that are for keeps.” Many of her fellow
contestants were shocked at her departure from the competition and in addition
to her strong relationships with the other models, she has received
overwhelming support from her fans on social media.
Despite being among
the younger contestants at age 21, Jachin showed that she possesses the quality
to hang with the best of Asia’s fresh talent. And although she’s out of the
running for AsNTM S6, the future is surely bright for one of the Philippines’
rising stars.
Adela-Mae Marshall
stands as the one remaining Filipina model for this season as we move towards
the closing episodes. She has consistently placed in the top 5 for the weekly
challenges, earning the highest score from the judges in week 4. Of the five
remaining models, she has accumulated the most total points thus far, keeping
the hope alive for the Philippines to bring home the crown for a second
consecutive season.
Will Adela be able to
keep up her strong performances and prove she has what it takes to be Asia’s
Next Top Model? Be sure to follow her journey by catching all new episodes on
FOX Life with a simulcast livestream on FOX+ on Wednesdays at 9.00 p.m.
