Georgie Kidman is ready for success.

EVER since she was a toddler, barely able to walk, Georgie Kidman has been playing it up for the camera. “She’s a natural supermodel, everyone’s been telling her that since she was three or four years old,” her father Paul Kidman said.Now the youngster from Castlemaine, who family and friends describe as an “absolute sweetheart”, has a chance to make her dream become reality. She has been chosen as a finalist in series five of hit reality show Australia’s Next Top Model.And at just 16 years old, she is possibly one of the youngest girls to ever earn a spot in the house.“She barely scraped in with her age,” Mr Kidman said.However, Georgie’s decision to enter the house was not an easy one. Just six months earlier her father was diagnosed with multiple myeloma, an incurable but treatable cancer of plasma cells that affects a person’s bone marrow. “The producers were worried that Georgie wouldn’t cope in the house because of my cancer, but she’s very strong-minded and she’s having a wonderful time,” Mr Kidman said.Georgie has joined 12 other young hopefuls vying to become Australia’s Next Top Model.The show is hosted by supermodel and television presenter Sarah Murdoch and airs on FOX8 in April.
