The Final Five Flashback.


So, what's cooking in the latest MDG season 2??

Let's refresh our minds on how it all began and how we've got our Top 5 finalists of Malaysian Dreamgirls. 



At first, we have our Top 12 finalists - Acha, Dawn, Denezia, Farah, Juanita, Liana, Maya, Ming, Natasha, Pinky, Rajvin, and Shasya. Then, the elimination began......

Elimination according to order....

Acha

Acha...started off strong by winning over Elaine's heart in her stunning-think-out-of-the-box poses. Even won herself RM500 worth of Adidas products in her first photo challenge in Elaine's workshop. However, she did not get enough votes to keep her in the competition. Such a shocker to see her be the first to be eliminated.


Maya


Maya Maya...I've never really been a fan of hers. I noticed alot of people complained about her weight and her body size but to me....I know there is such thing as a plus-size model. Hmmm...I just don't fancy her photos because I feel her eyes look a little bit too crazy in all her photos by default. Probably a little bit of conscious in how her eyes look would help. But....she definitely held herself together during the elimination. BRAVO!!!


Liana


The girl whom everyone believed has a discipline problem despite her occupation as an air-stewardess. Not one of my favorites....I know that every model has to be unique and must have that signature pose that accentuates their best feature...but pouting in all the photos?? It's like setting the lips at default mode and posing with different angles. But....I can not deny that she really has a hot body...Envies!!


Farah


Farah...one of the youngest in the competition. Started off a little bit emotional claiming herself to be mentally ill...She has the nicest face in the competition with ever-conveying-emotions-that-tell-a-million-stories pair of eyes. However, she didn't know how to use her best feature as an advantage. Plus...alot of people were complaining about her bigger lower half of the body...Other than that, her pictures were fab and effortless. It's a pity the viewers don't quite see eye-to-eye with her. She's got potential if properly groomed.


Shasya


Initially, she was mistaken as Barney the purple dinosaur when she came on set with a purple tube and purple jeans. But that will not be what I will remember her as. I will never forget this girl as she always have that glaring-i-want-you-dead eyes in every photos. She definitely knows her best features and never stops to learn or try new poses. Her Bella lifestyle photo is one of the best for me. Shows that feminity side of her. Unfortunately, she got eliminated even though she showed improvement in her photos =(


Denezia


Denezia...one of the youngest as well but with an ambition of pursuing piloting. Definitely a good choice. Being at 17 plus, she has the look of a teenager...for me, I think she's more suitable to be in Seventeen mag just like her cousin (my baby gurl!!). Hmm...I think it is in their blood to be cut out for modelling. Unfortunately, she seems to have more haters than supporters (according to MDG blog). She's still young and she's still got time to learn if modelling is what she has in mind. Undeniably, she has blossom throughout the competition proving that she can be versatile as well. Unfortunately, the viewers don't think so...Thus, she was eliminated.


So, 1 pulled out (Rajvin) and 6 got eliminated....Hmmm....so that left us with the Top 5 girls. Who are they??


Dawn
Dawn...has been in the bottom 3 for 2 consecutive weeks. Really shocking because she has been improving a lot since Day 1. This girl has got it all....height, great body and the face that could rock any hairstyles. In her latest photo, she has proven that she could be high-fashion and editorial. No wonder Jimmy was impressed with her professionalism in her ability to bring out any hairstyle or wardrobe given to her. Will her bubbly personality and blooming-modelesque photos secure her in the Top 4??

Juanita
Just like Dawn, Juanita has definitely got a perfect body with beautiful bone structures. Talking about signature pose....Hers have got to be that tense face with her protruding-showing-off her fab bones. However, she has to step up a notch in offering varieties in her photos. Her latest photo?? Bad photo....not her but whoever who chose that photo. Don't you know that a full-body photo must have her feet/shoes shown?? Juanita's was definitely cut-off by the red pipe (this is what I learnt from Mr. Jay of ANTM). Hmmm....she is also one of the Top 3 in Jimmy's list. Let's see whether the viewers will make Jimmy's wishlist comes true....

Ming
Ming...another true Malaccan at heart besides Denezia. A self-proclaimed vintage fashionista with modelling interests. Loads of people complained about her hairstyle and makeup in the Wella shooting. Some even said she looked like a panda. But....she has shown her kungfu panda side to us in the RedBull challenge and won Jay's heart. One of the favorites of many with her oriental look but her downpull that most people agreed on....her height. Unfortunately, she got the lowest votes last week. She would have got eliminated if it wasn't a non-elimination round. Hmmm....Will she be lucky enough this time to stay on in the competition??

Natasha
Another not-so-tall finalist but with a steaming hot body. Been in the Bottom 3 just like Dawn....I thought she did really well in her Wella shoot. Love that squinting eyes!! Best picture of the lot...Her RedBull photo was a disappointment. I thought she had better poses but why choose this photo?? Anyways, she managed to blow my mind away with her latest photo. Animal prints and Natasha?? I guess it really brought out the tigress in her...Even Jimmy was impressed and Natasha was listed as his Top 3. Hmmm....will her family and fans boost her votes and grant Jimmy's wish??

Pinky
Pinky...Pinky....many complained about her English especially when it requires her to speak. However, she has got the best catwalk and height to be a model. To me...she is known for her hysterical laughter and not-so-serious attitude. Being a makeup artist is a big advantage to her but...correcting or trying to tell the makeup artist what to do?? Definitely a BIG no-no. Afterall, models are like blank canvas. They are only supposed to bring out the items that they are supposed to....Her recent photo?? HUGE no-no for me as well. Wrong angle and the posing?? No creativity. She had only been in the Bottom 3 once....Will she still be that lucky to sustain her placement or will the comments of Jimmy get to the viewers and leave her packing for home?? 

Well, don't forget to catch the latest elimination tomorrow on MDG 2. Keep your fingers crossed.
