Young actress and model heads to New York

Jayden Pohl is eager to show her talent to the world at the International Modelling and Talent Convention.

Local actress and model Jayden Pohl is looking forward to participating in the prestigious International Modelling and Talent Convention to be held in New York.

This in July after she shone at the International Arts Talent Showcase at Silverstar Casino in September last year and was invited to New York.

The Grade 10 Curro Aurora learner was first scouted by 33andMe Talent Agency, and her performances as both an actress delivering a monologue and as a ramp model caught the attention of the adjudicators, who not only awarded her with an American Musical and Dramatic Academy scholarship but also selected her to participate at the convention.

The annual showcase is an illustrious platform for incomparable talent across the African continent and presents life-changing opportunities to aspiring actors, dancers, singers and models on a world-class stage exposed to international adjudicators.

The international presence includes Joey Hunter – former co-president of Ford Models (who coined the term ‘supermodels’), Rhavynn Drummer – an independent casting director for Tyler Perry Studios, Nate Butler of America’s Got Talent and X-Factor, Blaze Johnson from The Voice, Kamey Butler – Netflix head of global brand design programmes, J Elaine Marcos – 10-time Broadway actress.
