THJ: Why should you win as the next Top Model? What additional skills or advantages do you have for the judges to want to choose you to win this competition and not the other models?
Nicole: A top Model is not just limited to a good external appearance even though it’s the main thing, but she should have high moral standards and be an example to others. I have a background in modeling and I am always open to learn more. I am determined in what I do – hardworking and fair play. In fact, I have physical, professional, social, intellectual aptitude to win the competition and I am the youngest of the group.
THJ: I love your attitude about winning or not! It will take you far. Now that you are a contestant on Top Model, are you ever faced with any sort of fright, doubt or second-guessing before going on stage in front of the judges, or are you able to just hop on a runway anytime, anywhere as second nature or without any thought?
Nicole: When I am on stage, it’s like I’m alone in my room and I am giving my best, like you are singing in your bathroom when you are bathing. I’m not afraid of anything, always confident, positive and ready to impress!
THJ: Everyone knows that going before a jury for a competition of this magnitude is top class, so which criteria have you foreseen the jury pinpointing on such that you are prepared ahead of time and are in your game for the other competitors?
Nicole: What the jury liked about me was my physical aspect (body, face shape) and my smile. They also appreciated my simplicity and my naturalness.
THJ: Most models are very slim or skinny. What do you do to maintain your shape and what do you do to relax during your leisure time?
Nicole: I have to say that I have a natural slim body, but to keep it healthy I practice sports about 1 or 2 times per week. I also eat fresh and natural products such as natural juice, vegetables, and fruits and make sure to drink much water.
