Cynthia Bailey of The Real Housewives of Atlanta pulled a few of her celebrity friends into the fold for her recent model search for The Bailey Agency.

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…

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…
