Jennifer Hawkins lookalike Kahili Blundell wins Ralph Swimwear title.
SYDNEY girl Kahili Blundell has won the Ralph Australian Swimwear Model of the Year competition.
The Crows Nest bikini babe beat more than 2000 girls from all over Australia and New Zealand to claim the coveted title at Sydney's Star City Casino last night.
"I feel more than special right now, I'm blown away and so honoured to be given this position," Blundell said.
"I was expecting him to call another number and I stood there thinking 27, is that me?
"It's also my boyfriend's birthday, but I realised it was me and I was shivering."
The 21-year-old Jennifer Hawkins lookalike works as a personal assistant and dabbles in makeup artistry in her spare time.
Even though Blundell has been exposed to the harsh world of modelling for three years, she admits the past couple of months have been especially hard.
"Since November I've been training every week for this, thinking about it every night," she said.
"I've been brought up to eat very healthy, so I don't have too much trouble doing that, but I definitely exercise a lot. I've been working very hard so thank god it's all paid off."
Last night's runway extravaganza saw the 38 finalists strut their stuff in multiple catwalk parades donning not much more than their fake eyelashes, fake tans, hair extensions and, of course, skimpy bikinis while their boisterous boyfriends feasted on meat pies, prawns and oysters and wolf-whistled from the audience.
After the beauties were whittled down to the final 12, reigning champ Emmi Moore handed over her sash and title to the Blundell.
"I've been doing this for three years now and this is exactly what I've been dreaming and hoping for," Blundell said.
"I'm open to any opportunity and I love challenges. I've obviously done well in the bikini field, so I might just continue on this track for a little while."
Burlesque performer Sina King from Melbourne took home runner-up while second runner-up went to 21-year-old aspiring writer Tiffany Baker from Fremantle, Western Australia.
