INTERNATIONAL MODEL
Early Beginnings: Geli Kamaci® began her ballet lessons at the balcony of the Turngemeinde Bornheim until she advanced to Eintracht Frankfurt. Regular training and stage performances developed her body awareness and sense of rhythm from the tender age of five. Geli danced for a total of 15 years, later incorporating jazz and modern dance into her repertoire. Her education also included music school and piano lessons, complemented by regular swimming training, which contributed to her physical fitness.
At the age of 16, Geli was discovered by the world-renowned company Vidal Sassoon on Fressgasse in Frankfurt am Main. Shortly thereafter, she walked the international catwalks in Paris, Milan, and Rome as a short-haired show model. Two years later, EastWestModels, Frankfurt's leading model agency for new faces, took notice of Geli Kamaci. She signed her first mother agency contract and quickly rose to the top of the highest-paid short-haired models, working for renowned companies such as Wella, Essanelle, kpOchs, and L'Oréal Deutschland GmbH.
In addition to her general modeling activities for photoshoots, press days, showroom presentations, TV shows, and fashion shows, Geli achieved her first publication for the shoe label Laetitia Klein, which was displayed in Milan, as well as the cover commercial for Vior Magazine. Alongside this passion, she studied Fashion Business, Management, and Marketing at the LDT Nagold Academy, focusing on wholesale and foreign trade in women's outerwear for the industry. Concurrently, she worked in a sales agency representing five labels in the regions of Hesse, Saarland, Rhineland-Palatinate, and parts of North Rhine-Westphalia.
Her responsibilities included showroom presentations, acquiring prominent clients from the fashion industry, maintaining relationships with existing textile retailers and chains, expanding brand presence, managing order deadlines, and handling follow-ups, including complaints. She also participated in trade shows, store visits, and international meetings.
Through her participation in Heidi Klum's model show "Germany's Next Topmodel," Geli Kamaci® chose to leave EastWestModels for Pro Sieben. She successfully competed against 2,000 applicants in the live casting and made it into the top 50. Introduced as Tamara on the show, she ultimately placed in the top 26 in 2011. Agents then sent Geli Kamaci® to her first on-stay contract for 90 days in Istanbul with Star Models.
This was followed by 90 days in Beijing with Unique Models and an additional 45 days with Jastar Models in Shanghai. Geli's portfolio now includes TV commercials for leading Chinese whirlpool companies, bridal fashion presentations, fashion editorials, catalog shoots, and extensive training through daily castings for various beauty and cosmetics companies, as well as brands in the automotive sector like Bugatti and small shows for Victoria's Secret's lingerie line, Pink.
For personal reasons, she terminated her contract in Shanghai and won the title of Miss Model of the World Germany in 2011. This title qualified Geli Kamaci for China's largest beauty pageant, Miss Model of the World International, where she bravely secured second place in 2012/2013. The extension contract as a role model for the MMW Committee followed shortly after, leading to further PR appearances, government visits, sponsor meetings, and more in Shenzhen under her Chinese model name BeiJüTing (translated as "white growing jade stone").
After hosting in Mandarin, Geli decided to pursue a TV hosting training program in Frankfurt, attending her first class despite being jetlagged. She graduated with distinction and secured a position behind the scenes at ProSieben for the format "red!Stars, Lifestyle and more." Simultaneously, she signed with Louisa Models Munich and frequently traveled between Germany and Los Angeles.
Further beauty pageants positioned Geli as a key figure in the typical fashion and beauty model landscape. Through her public relations work, she ventured into music and released two songs. Meanwhile, she was accepted into an acting school and has since been offered two prestigious acting roles. In her private life, she enjoys engaging with fashion and art.
