Burmese beauty wows in the first episode of new Asian Next Top Model cycle

Myanmar's Beauty Thet Thinn stuns the judges in the first photoshoot contest of the new cycle of Asia's Next Top Model. The first contestant from her country to have ever made it as finalist to the regional franchise of the world's biggest reality model search, Beauty got the highest score in a field of 12 contestants from 9 different countries. 

The 22-year old model who traces her roots from both Nepal and Myanmar, was assigned an iguana as her "co-star" in the tribal jewelry photoshoot. The finalists were assigned "exotic animals" for a plot twist that's common to the reality show. A python and a baby crocodile were the other two reptiles. 

Taiwan's Mia Sabathy got the second best photo in the episode while Malaysian bet Rubini Sambanthan placed third. The Filipinas were safe through the next round with Jachin Manere ranking 4th and Adela-Mae Marshall placing 7th.
