 Joey Galon has the chance to launch his own clothing line if he wins in Lifetime's 24-Hour Catwalk reality show/Balitang America


EAGLE ROCK, California - Joey Galon has been in the fashion and beauty pageant scene since he was 18 years old. 

Galon has been chosen to compete in Lifetime’s 24-Hour Catwalk reality competition hosted by British model Alexa Chung. 
 
If he wins, he will receive a cash prize and the chance to launch his own clothing line nationwide.
 
“It’s a dream come true. It’s just the next step in coming closer to launching my line,” said Galon. “And I’m really excited about it.”
 
As a fashion veteran, Galon has coached dozens of Miss Philippines contestants and has helped crown a few winners. 
 
The former fashion show producer has worked for Macy’s, Oscar de la Renta, Armani and Vicky Belo.
 
The San Francisco native, who now lives in Las Vegas, had just finished filming another reality TV series Model Latina on SiTV. 
 
Galon, who appeared throughout the season as the pageant coach, said he approached the show the same way he has always worked with pageants.
 
“Just help them out in every way possible to become their best,” said Galon. “That way it makes the pageant more interesting, makes the pageant much more competitive because all the girls are doing their best.”
