Late last year we launched the StarNow Global Model Search, joining forces with three of the world’s top modelling agencies, Models1 (UK), L.A. Models (USA), Vivien's Model Management (AUS), who have launched the careers of some of the world's biggest models, including Bar Refaeli, Tony Ward and Kristy Hinze.

We were inundated with over 3,000 amazing entries! Thanks to all of you who entered.

And so without further ado, the winners are:

Rebeca Roca and Janae Beer.

A huge congratulations from all of us here at StarNow!

Rebeca and Janae will be represented by Models1 and Vivien's Model Management.

We will keep you updated on their progress.

We're proud to be sponsoring this year's Sorta Unofficial New Zealand Film Awards, which is replacing the awards ceremony formerly known as the AFTAs.

The nominees have just been announced - check them out to see who's in to win a Moa!

The awards ceremony will be held on 4 December in Auckland.
