TWO lucky MetroCentre visitors have been given a chance to make it big on the catwalk.
Graeme Hall, of Farringdon, Sunderland, and Stacey Marie Pooley, of West Denton, Newcastle, were crowned winners of the MetroCentre's Search for a Model competition, following a live final in the complex's Town Square.
Graeme, 26, and Stacey Marie, 17, were chosen from more than 100 North-East wannabes and each won £1,000 in River Island gift vouchers and a modelling contract with AM Models.
MetroCentre marketing manager Karen Carr said: "We were inundated with entries, all of a very high standard, which made the judging very difficult. We thought Stacey and Graeme really stood out and we are very pleased with the final selection. I hope they both go on to enjoy successful modelling careers.
