The Metro Centre Gateshead was the place to be last night if you fancied your chances as a star on the pages of Company and lots of girls did! They came from all over the north east to audition at the first of our Casting Calls taking place all over the country. Held in River Island in the Metro Centre there was a DJ on hand to get girls in the right mood for posing for our photographer Leo. At one point the queue went right out into the mall. And in the quieter times, River's Arieta was literally pulling people in to take part. The only complaint is that bigger girls were still a bit shy at putting themselves forward and we did see a lot of wannabe models. Come on girls this is meant to be for everyone - next step Leeds which is today so please come down whatever size you are, this is about having the right attitude not the right dress size! We hope to see you there.
Check out some pics of last night's casting call - plus we've put up a gallery of all of our casting call girls so you can find your pic!
