No, it’s not my latest cheesey chat up line, but a genuine opportunity. Next Thursday (Oct 4) there are casting tests for L’Oreal in San Telmo, Los Cristianos.

To have a chance, you need to be between 15 and 30 years old, from 1.65 metres high to 1.75, and have long hair. Also you should be willing to have your locks cut and styled by a top Italian stylist.

The auditions are being run by Sur Film production company, who have a permanent base in San Telmo, have English speakers, and are frequently recruiting for adverts, photo shoots and even movies.

You have from 10am until 8pm to pop in. San Telmo is the block facing Las Vistas beach, take the road behind it and about half way between the 2 sets of steps to the beach you will find some small stairs down to a terrace where the casting will take place. There will be notices to guide you on the day or you can phone 822106914 (yes it is an 8).

Good luck, you might as well at least try….Because Your Worth It.
