In an exclusive interview with BuddyTV, she spoke about her Top Model experience and her satisfaction even as a runner-up on the competition.
Even before her inclusion on America’s Next Top Model cycle 8, she was a fan of the show. With nothing else to do, she decided to try out in August and surprisingly earned a spot on the show.
As for the competition itself, Galkina hoped that she would get far though she was surprised when she ended up as a finalist. Her strategy? She just listened attentively to the judges and tried to improve her craft and learn from her mistakes. This was also what the judges saw in her that’s why she ended up as one of the final two.
She was never really bitter about not being crowned as America’s Next Top Model. In fact, she was happy to become a runner-up since the runner-up has the same exposure as the winner, except for the CoverGirl contract, the representation from a renowned modeling agency and a spread in a popular magazine. Nevertheless, she’s contented on how things ended up.
Being on Top Model definitely changed Galkina’s life. She went in on the competition with a different personality and came out with an even better one.
