Last years Finals Night was held at the Grand Ballroom of the Solaria Resorts & Casino. The competition is founded by the Fashion Designers Association of the Philippines (FDAP), this 3 decade old competition has the reputation of launching many of the PH’s now famous bodies and faces locally and internationally, on glossy magazines, runways, television and even on the silver screen. John Estrada, Wilma Doesnt, Francine Prieto, Zanjoe MArudo and ABS-CBN’s Lawrence Dyogi, just to name a few.

Bodyshots on its 30th year, added new categories to the usual Runway and Alpha Male categories. As the competition promotes, "Diversity is fashion", aspiring curvy plus-size, petite, tattooed, dark-skinned, and even the differently abled hopefuls are all welcome to compete.

After their Cebu auditions, Bodyshots 2015 made waves in Gensan just this June 27-28 2015 at Grab a Crab - Laurel, aiming to extend their reach, Bodyshots 2015 held their first audition in Gensan, and I was lucky enough to be assigned by the production team (Overall Productions) to organise the audition.

The screening panel, all the way from Manila FDAP’s Johnny Babad and Nardie Presa, assessed and interviewed the aspiring models of Gensan, along with Bodyshots Director/Producer Che Lejano and Junil Managbanag who got the models in photo and video.
