Mark your calendars or set an e-mail reminder: the FLEX Bikini Model Search Online is BACK! And thanks to our title sponsor SuperPump, it’s gearing up to be bigger and better than ever! Beginning on Tuesday, June 1, voting for Month One begins.
Last year, more than 400 bikini babes entered and more than 550,000 — that’s over a half million! — of your votes sent six insanely hot monthly winners into the 16-woman finals of the FLEX Bikini Model Search Championships in Las Vegas, Nevada during Olympia Weekend. The overall winner, Amanda Latona, received an exclusive contract with Weider Publications and appeared in the 2010 FLEX Swimsuit Issue. (Check out our 2010 Swimsuit Issue behind-the-scenes videos: Day 1 | Day 2)
This year’s online contest will run for three months — June, July and August. Two winners will be chosen each month after a two-week voting period and deliberation regarding the 10 highest vote getters by our expert panel of judges.
Each month, the winners receive:
– $250 USD
– $100 gift voucher from Whish Body Products
– Free swimwear from Chyna Dolls Bikinis
– A profile in FLEX Magazine and flexonline.com
– A photo shoot with FLEX magazine
While it’s too late to submit your photos for Month One, you can still enter in time for Month Two. The deadlines for submissions are as follows: Month Two: June 21; Month Three: July 21.
The 2010 FLEX Bikini Model Search Championships will be held in Sin City during Olympia Weekend on September 24 and 25. The overall winner will receive an exclusive contract with Weider Publications and appear in the 2011 FLEX Swimsuit Issue.
