It's now up to "You" to choose a local contestant for America's Next Top Model. KPLR 11 held a casting call this weekend in Fenton. Dozens of girls auditioned, but, only eleven made the cut.
Cycle 12 of America's next top model premiered last week. But many young women are looking ahead to cycle 13. Hundreds stood in long lines Saturday at the Fenton campus of the St. Louis College of Health Careers. This time it was the petite girls turn. Unlike previous years when girls under 5'7" were not eligible to participate the tables were turned girls over 5'7" were out. That rule change made a lot of girls very happy.
"I've been watching this show since it first started. When I heard it was short people, 5'7" and under I jumped on it, thankful to be here." Michelle Thornbrough - Contestant
"It's usually tall models. But today's it's all about shorter girls. So I'm very excited." Megan Adamo - Contestant
After sashaying and posing for the judges. Eleven finalists were selected. All of their photos are on our voting page and you can vote to select a winner. You can only cast one vote per computer. Voting ends Friday at noon. The winner will be announced live on our newscast Friday night. She'll then be flown to have a live audition with the show's casting team.
