Jay-Z’s ROCAWEAR joined forces with the supermodel and her co-host, legendary male model Tyson Beckford, to reveal the fresh new face chosen during the weeks long contest.
The winner, who will most likely be revealed during Season 5 of RHOA, received a $10,000 cash prize from ROCAWEAR, a one year contract with CLICK Models and a double fashion spread in Vibe / Vibe Vixen, shot by celebrity photographer Derek Blanks.
And while that’s all well and good… the real tea is that the event was actually all about Apollo Nida, husband of Bailey’s RHOA castmate, Phaedra Parks who was revealed as The Bailey agency’s newest talent!
Apollo got a job y’all! More photos from the event below…
According to photographer FreddyO,
In addition to showcasing the finalists, the event was also the official introduction of The Bailey Agency’s newest celebrity model and talent, Apollo Nida (RHOA). Celebrity and notable judges included Derek Blanks (Photographer), Reggie Wells (Makeup Artist), Nadia Shahrik (CLICK Models), Niki McGloster (Vibe Vixen) and Suzie Sugarman.
The Winner Will be announced later but I have to say I was quite impressed…
Peter Thomas and Tyson Beckford

#RHOA Recap: The Real Housewives of Atlanta S7, Ep12 ‘Beauties In The Fast Lane’ [FULL VIDEO]
Wow, she really looked long and hard for talent this time.
No kidding, also it must be true about Apollo and Phaedra on the outs. Because she would have been wiht him on this one.
Good for Cynthia. I don’t really care for her, but she doing the damn thing. Good for her.
Get your money up Apollo, do you!!!
What happened to Tyson Beckford, dude is falling off, doesn’t look much like "Model Material" these day….Yuck…I digress
The most interesting part of this article is that I learnt a more effective way to spell ya’ll which I was spelling yal. (Hey you learn something everyday)
Apollo is nice looking. He can go for a model, probably the best decision her agency has made because her people are cute but not too modelesque. I think Apollo could pull it off way better than Tyson Beckford. That guy just aint cute to me.
Tyson barely looks happy in these pics. Hands are ashy. I hope he’s okay.
LMAOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!@ "Hand are ashy. I hopr he’s okay"…Seriously…Stop it….But I feel what you saying…He has never been sute to me he need to go back to rockin a bald head and muscle-man shirts…this nappy headed Malcolm X look aint workin…Dude’s hair is sittin on the back of his head liek a beenie.Hairline worst than Neyo’s LMAO!!!
I always thought Apollo was handsome and Cynthia never ages, still looks good.
In the pic wit Tyson and Apollo;Tyson’s look in his eyes are saying “I’ll give it to u” to Apollo.& Apollos eye was like “Oh u know I can take it” Peter n Tyson are fingering each other in the butt they so close in the pic with them both. These men are obvoiously using Cynthia to get to each other. Lmao Btw maybe Phaedra trying to let him shine if he is the winner if he aint maybe rumors are true
lmao i was thinking the same thing this look like a booty bandit fest…..and we all remember the tyson and big tigger situation can’t say im shocked they are in gaytl
Alright, now Apollo….Congrats
Cool…
why go through all of the drama of having a scout if she already knew who she was going to pick? That’s silly and a waste of people’s time. Just name Apollo and be done with it.
Good point. It also makes her agency seem phony if all she is going to do is big up her friends for the sake of ratings for her show. There are plenty good looking black men in GA and neighboring states not to mention her stomping grounds of NY. Why not give the job and the cash to a man who truly needs it? Apollo already has a job and a 2nd sourc of income via his wife Phaedra.
p.s. Uncle Ben needs some butter
Why OH Why does she wear BLACK tghts with EVERYTHING!?!?!
Call me a hater, but I just don’t see the hype about Cynthia. She’s not cute to me – not ugly but not hot. The whole super model thing, never heard of seen her until this show. Although Naomi’s head it pushed back all she has to do it pull the bangs down and she’s back to being fierce….nothing’s fierce about Cynthia.
I kind of agree….she’s "average" lookswise but she is tall & built like a model…her sister ain’t that cute either but she managed 2 snag an overseas ball player didn’t she??….Cynthia could step it up a bit….she can certainly do better than Peter cause his attitude is supastank…how she go from Leon (sexy baby daddy) 2 Peter Thom-ass-hole anyway….
tb, when i saw your face that answered all my
questions about you. you don’t read black mag-
azines, or you would’ve seen cynthia. she’s
old school, been in the business for years.
why would a man be a hater of a woman?, if this
is YOUR picture.
Faith, I was thinking the very same thing myself. I remember seeing Cynthia in magazines and runway shows back in the 80’s. Some people think if you’re not in an all white magazine, then you’re not a model. Smh.
you have to be over the age of 25 to know who Cynthia is. She was a major feature in Essence during the mid to late 80s and Ebony Fashin Fair. She is that model people get when they can’t afford Naomi. Cynthia is pretty without makeup but Naomi is about to scare your baby with that face. Her hairline is non-existent too.
Peter is so vomitous. Just get the OLD dirt man vibe from him.
Tyson’s been hanging out with too many yt folks because it seems like he’s starting to think lotion is made for him. WRONG.
"supermodel"? She is beautiful but did she ever reach that status? No shade, just asking.
I heard she was more "popular" overseas….I had never heard of her until RHOA either….
Tyson and Apollo look very yummy.
why is Peter dressed like he’s headed to the farmer’s market? i also just noticed that from these pictures, either Tyson is a lot shorter than i thought he was or Peter and Apollo are taller than i thought they were.
That’s not finding talent. That’s just sheer laziness on her part. I call that the "Bailey Agency BULLSHIT" Tyson looks like Djimon Hunsu’s Americanized brother…lighter and ashy-er.
Lmao! you wrong for that Tyson and Djimon comment.smh.
Apollo is not model material …talk about pulling favors for "friends". I don’t watch the show, but I don’t get the hoe over phadra and her husband. Are they that special or extra hyped on this blog ?
Look at #BrokeAssPETER.Net¡¡ lol He could have at least gotten dress¡
Isn’t Apollo too shrimpy? (short)
Are my eyes deceiving me or is Phaedra Parks missing in all of the above screenshots? UMMMM – why you not talking about that Michelle?
My question who is the guy in the white t-shirt that they tryed to cut out of the photo . Then he’s show in another photo wit Mr. William G. McCray lll now to me that’s a real "Model" if you ask me please let me know if I’m wrong ??
Cynthia looks like a HOT AZZ MESS! What is up with those damn tights? Not cute at all!
Cynthia kills me trying to be so fashion forward. Bitch! You’re on a fashion treadmill, going nowhere fast. Hot ass tights in the ATL summertime. Ain’t that much A/C in that building.
I think Apollo is a great choice. I could definitely see him modeling.
He still looks so good and handsome. I also thought that they never ages..
Apollo is not model material. Sorry, he just isn’t.
[…] why I’m never going to move to L.A. Sandra Rose This man is definitely FINE. Straight from the A I have loved this woman since I was a kid. Necole […]
Go Cynthia,The Bailey Agency is doing great things. Keep doing you!
