Refinery Media wraps 'Supermodelme' for KIX channel

SINGAPORE – Refinery Media has wrapped the second season of reality TV model search 'Supermodelme'. The show will air exclusively on cable channel KIX early in 2011.

Super Model Me is in its second season this year

The multi-platform, branded content reality TV programme features 12 aspiring models from around the region going head-to-head through a series of physically and mentally grueling challenges.

The winner was decided at a closed door season finale in Singapore, for which all audience members had to sign a non-disclosure agreement. She gets a grand cash prize of $20,000, doubled from last season, along with attractive prizes from key sponsors. She will also make the cover of a local leading fashion magazine.

Supermodelme season two will debut on KIX - a subscription-based TV channel available on StarHub in Singapore. Refinery Media has a partnership with KIX’s operator, Tiger Gate Entertainment, the Asian arm of Lionsgate studios.

William Pfeiffer, CEO of Tiger Gate Entertainment, said, “When Tiger Gate was looking for a content partner in Asia, it was always our intention to develop closer ties with Singapore - to encourage locally conceived and produced content”.

He concluded, “The long-term goal of the collaboration (with Refinery Media) is to further develop and produce unique made-in-Asia formats for distribution throughout the region and the rest of the world."
