Teen Model Receives Hollywood Offer



Xuan Thao

Fifteen-year-old Truong Minh Xuan Thao, a student from John Robert Powers – Vietnam, who took part in the recent IMTA contest, has received an offer to work and study in Hollywood.

Besides the offers from a fashion company and a Hollywood filmmaker, she has also been approached by Chinese, Taiwanese and Thai agencies. Xuan Thao was one of the four students sent by John Robert Powers – Vietnam to compete in the International Modeling and Talent Organisation contest held this July in New York.

Another team member, 14-year-old Thanh Tam, has also been invited to take part in a commercial by a New York-based company. In this year’s IMTA contest, Vietnamese contestants (Xuan Thao, Thanh Tam, Bao Ngoc and Thanh Tu) took part in 10 categories including make-up skills, acting in English and modeling on the catwalk with 2,000 other candidates from all over the world.

The four Vietnamese modeling and acting hopefuls paid around US$8,000 for the trip out of their own pockets. Vo Thi Xuan Trang, Director of John Robert Powers – Vietnam, who accompanied the candidates on their American trip, said, “Though the Vietnamese students are much shorter than other candidates, and didn’t win any prizes, they did have a chance to market themselves to entertainment companies from all over the world, and Xuan Thao is an example of marketing success.”

Having been in Vietnam for more than a year, John Robert Powers will open three new training programmes for future models, MCs and beauty pageant contestants this August.
