The 10 finalists of the VS Model Search:
ALICIA HALL
AGE: 24
HOMETOWN: LAS VEGAS, NV
24-year-old Alicia has proven that ‘what happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas” because, after growing up there she has zero interest in the party lifestyle. At 5’8”, Alicia confesses she was always self-conscious about her legs and didn’t wear shorts until she was 17. She wants to start her own denim line and a non-profit to help kids growing up in Vegas. Alicia has wanted to walk in the coveted Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show for as long as she can remember. Will Lady Luck be on her side?
ALLISON TURNER
AGE: 23
HOMETOWN: CAPE GIRARDEAU, MO
Say howdy to Allison Turner, a 23-year-old pre-school teacher with a passion for barrel racing. This 5’10 ½” cowgirl hails from a small town in Missouri and spends most of her time saddled up in boots and jeans, training with her horse. But don’t be fooled—Ali is just as comfortable walking the runway in 4-inch stilettos as well. One of her biggest dreams is to make it to the National Finals Rodeo in Las Vegas. Will Ali be the one who takes the reigns at this year’s fashion show?
CATHARINA LEE
AGE: 20
HOMETOWN: WASHINGTON DC
Catharina is a first generation Korean-American who was raised in a very traditional Korean home in Washington, D.C. Her strict upbringing brought out her “bad girl” when she was younger, but at 20, she’s moved past her rebellious ways and is focusing on her future. She’s currently studying Communications at George Mason University and now the 5’9” former-rebel would rather act out on the runway. According to Catharina, she can easily beat out her competition. Will the other aspiring Angels prove her wrong?
COURTNEY O’CONNOR
AGE: 20
HOMETOWN: RALEIGH, NC
North Carolinian Courtney O’Connor will do ANYTHING to be a Victoria’s Secret Runway Angel, even if it means selling half her wardrobe to buy a ticket to the Chicago casting! This 5’11”, 20-year-old has always prided herself on being every girl’s best friend and readily offers advice to anyone who asks for her help. Courtney’s determination will be a definite must as the competition heats up!
JAMIE LEE DARLEY
AGE: 23
HOMETOWN: CARMEL, CA
British-born Jamie Lee is a self-confessed “boy’s girl” at heart. She loves playing basketball and became an expert at tiling bathroom floors while working at her father’s construction company. The down-to-earth 23-year-old moved to LA to become a model and actress, but at 5’11” she’s faced rejection for being too tall, too fat, too busty and too curvy. She was ready to throw in the towel when she heard about the VS Model Search. This is her last chance to do it big or GO HOME!
KATELYN FORTES
AGE: 18
HOMETOWN: BOSTON, MA
18 year-old Katelyn Fortes was so determined to not miss her opportunity to be the next Victoria’s Secret Runway Angel that she drove 12 hours from Boston to make the final casting call in Chicago. A former high school track star and ballerina, this 5’10” athlete is confident and claims to have one of the fiercest walks. Her biggest “secret” is that she stuffs her bra. Let’s get her in a push-up ASAP!
KRYSTINA HOLBROOK
AGE: 20
HOMETOWN: EL DORADO HILLS, CA
20-year-old Krystina has 3 obsessions in life: baking, shoes and becoming a Victoria’s Secret model! When this 5’9” LA girl heard about the Runway Angel Model Search, she immediately jumped at the opportunity to fulfill a lifelong dream. During her personal time, she enjoys preparing yummy treats for her friends & family and is always in search for the next ‘it’ shoe. Will this Angel-hopeful have what it takes to make her dream come true?
KYLIE BISUTTI
AGE: 19
HOMETOWN: SIMI VALLEY, CA
Kylie is an adventure-seeking 19-year-old who likes to dive right in,
whether she’s playing sports—or actually scuba diving. She took a big chance at age 16 when she traveled to Japan to try modeling. Now, the 5’10” beauty says her goal is to show young women how to be comfortable in their own skin. Her biggest secret? She likes to dance like a crazy person when she’s alone. Will those dance moves help her on the runway?
TIKA IVEZAJ
AGE: 25
HOMETOWN: DETROIT, MI
25-year-old Tika is strong-willed and knows how to kick butt—literally—thanks to her first-degree black belt. She’s never been afraid to go after what she wants, whether it’s running off to marry her teen sweetheart (she’s been happily married for seven years), or setting off in hopes of making history as the first Albanian Runway Angel. She’s fiery and 5’11”. But will she tough it out through Angel Boot Camp?
RAVEN ERVIN
AGE: 24
HOMETOWN: BIRMINGHAM, AL
A street-wise loner who’s not afraid to speak her mind, 24-year-old Raven got a rude awakening when she packed up all her worldly possessions and drove 12 hours to Miami on the lure of an apartment, a portfolio and steady work from a silver-tongued photographer—only to find a roach-infested apartment and empty promises waiting. $3000 poorer—but tons wiser—this 5’10” fast-talker dusted off and started over. Is Raven ready for the runway?
