“I had nerves that ran through my body when auditioning, it was indescribable,” said Kyle.
“I was excited but also scared, but these emotions gave me the energy and power to exceed my limitations.”
After he impressed the judges, Kyle was called back and asked to take part in the International Model and Talent Association (IMTA).
The IMTA is set to be held in July 2021 in New York.
For Kyle to attend the IMTA showcase, he needs to raise R150 000. Visit Back-a-Buddy to assist him.
