Personal:

Belinda is currently in Year 12, and excels in maths and science. She has had to spread her VCE out over three years, completing a couple of subjects each year, as she suffers from chronic fatigue syndrome.

Belinda plans to go to university to study veterinary science, and says no matter what happens with her modelling, she wants to be a vet in the long run. She has fours horses, dogs, cats and birds, and rides her horses to keep fit. She is passionate about animals, and is very vocal against whaling.

Belinda describes herself as cheerful, easy going and approachable, and says she doesn’t get intimidated easily. She hates people who bitch and whinge about everything, as constant whining drives her up the wall.

Modelling/Fashion:

Belinda has never done any modelling. She hadn’t even worn a pair of high heels before entering the competition. Her favourite model is Miranda Kerr, “she’s totally gorgeous but also I can relate to her.” Belinda likes to make her own clothes, and says she doesn’t like to look like everybody else. She doesn’t have a specific style, but says it is constantly changing.

Personality:

Likes: her scar on her left cheek; being so sociable

Hates: people who aren’t open to others’ thoughts or opinions; her feet; being too self critical but coming across as over confident

Life motto: ‘Go hard and kick arse’
