Model Minnesotan Meet the newest reality show star in the state. Originally from Charlottesville, Va., "Make Me a Supermodel" contestant Colin Steers currently lives in Northfield, Minn., and spends his days as a neuroscience student at Carleton College. Ironically, this model/student dichotomy seems perfectly appropriate for the Clark Kent lookalike. He made his debut on the Minneapolis fashion scene last weekend at Metro Magazine's Fight Night. New episodes of "Make Me a Supermodel" air on Wednesdays at 9 p.m. on Bravo and the first episode replays today at 5 p.m. and Saturday at 3 p.m. We spoke by phone to get the scoop on the premiere.
Q What did you learn about modeling?
A Everything. Some of the other kids were, like, "I don't have very much experience, but here's my portfolio." I attached some Facebook photos to my application. This is not comparable.
Q What was the hardest part?
A I have pretty terrible posture. I'm used to wearing a heavy backpack and walking to school with my head down. To hold my head up straight with this powerful runway walk, which I had never seen before, it doesn't come naturally.
Q Any advice for aspiring models?
