Clash between Cassi Van Den Dungen and Tahnee Atkinson Articl


Van Den Dungen is taking on West Australian beauty Tahnee Atkinson in the battle for the title and a modelling contract. The show will go to air live on Fox 8.

The girls will be judged on their catwalk skills and on the photos they have appeared in during the series.

An expanded panel of fashion notables headed by the show's host, Sarah Murdoch, will assess the models' potential for success.

Designer Alex Perry, model mentor Charlotte Dawson, ANTM style director Jonathan Pease, model agent Priscilla Leighton Clark, renowned fashion photographer Russell James and Harper's Bazaar fashion editor Claudia Navone will make up the panel.

Van Den Dungen, 16, has been tipped by international modelling agents as being a star in the making.

But she has become known less for her modelling ability than for her unruly behaviour on the show.

Van Den Dungen was sent to anger management class, created headlines for her relationship with a man almost 10 years her senior, refused to give up smoking, had regular run-ins with other aspiring models on the show, and dropped the f-word during a catwalk appearance while the series was being filmed.
