The bebe "it girl" semifinals took place his past Saturday April 18th at 6 bebe stores in NYC, LA , San Francisco, Miami, Chicago and Atlanta. Over the past several weeks,the scouts had the difficult task of choosing 600 participants from THOUSANDS of online entries!
Then 600 semifinalist girls turned out last Saturday to meet Elite and Look Model Agency scouts in-person. From these lucky 600, the final 6 that will be flown to LA May 11th. Decisions on the 6 finalists will be made and sent out this Friday, April 24th.
The girls were very excited to meet the scouts and many brought family members for support. After meeting with the scouts, semi-finalists were able to take advantage of 20% bebe merchandise and had some much needed reatail therapy!
The scouts will be editing thought their selections over the next few days to announce the 6 lucky girls Friday April 24th.
Thanks to all those who applied and congratulations to our semi-finalists, way to go ladies!
Allie,
Did you make it to the NYC go-see??? I was there, but had no idea what you would look like. I tried to make conversation with people just to see if I could find you! Haha. Good luck!
I heart NY.

I went to the Miami go see event and it was phenomenal. The Elite, BEBE, and Elle staff were all so kind and helpful. I enjoyed the energy in the store and would like to give a big thumbs up to all of the people who made the event happen. I met a lot of great people and would love to keep in touch with them.
Sincerely,
Amanda Kennedy

Hi girls. I've been to the Atlanta go see. I think it was bizarre, the interview was less than one minute. I'm disappointed :(

I had the same thing in Atlanta,and very disappointed as well for a few reasons.First there was not even time to say hello and show your personality. Which I think is a huge part about being a model and just as important for anyone. You have to be beautiful on the inside and outside.I have a very outgoing and fun personality, but no one was able to see that with it being so quick. I should have gone to Miami it seemed more like a better and more upbeat casting. I choose Atlanta for the min there is 8 feet unlike Miami which is 9 for Elite. I am 5'7.5". So I thought I would have had a better chance there.Also check out my post about the finalists, they were unfair to Atlanta. And I feel that there should be something done about it.Thank You
