We interviewed our newly crowned winners at the event on Friday evening.
We asked the girls how they felt at becoming the next generation of role models for young local girls working with Cheryl’s Closet .
Alexandra Prior age 19 was literally speechless at her win. ” I am so shocked, I don’t know what to say, other than thank you.” Katie Finlay age 20 ” Its a dream come true, It hasn’t sunk in at all, its so exciting, yet totally surreal for me, I was just delighted to make the final top ten!”
We asked our judge and host, Nigel Bird at the lodge on the loch how difficult was it to judge this type of competition?
It was a really difficult competition to judge, as the standard of girls was so high.” “Their performances, personalities and work ethic were so impressive, we had a really tough decision to make, as they all worked so hard for the competition.” ” They have gained so much confidence since I saw them at bootcamp.”
“I enjoyed every aspect of the experience, we have worked with Cheryl’s Closet on recent events and admire Cheryl’s dedication to these young girls.” ” She has a deep rooted passion, for what she does and her work ethic and professionalism are highly commendable.” ” I know both new winners will enjoy working with such a great team.”
