Career
[edit]In 2008, Cairns was announced as one of the fourteen girls who participated in the fourth series of Britain's Next Top Model. During her run in the competition, she accumulated 3 first call-outs, tying with eventual winner Alex Evans, and one bottom two appearance. After landing in the bottom two with eventual second runner-up Stefanie Wilson, the judges decided to send her home.
Cairns was then signed to Models 1 in London after appearing on the show, being the first non-winning Britain's Next Top Model contestant to be signed by the prize agency. A year later, she had left Models 1 and joined Nevs, another agency based in London. She also appeared on ITV2's The Fashion Show along with Britain's Next Top Model, Cycle 3 winner, Lauren McAvoy, and walked for Graeme Black at London Fashion Week.[1] In 2006, she appeared in the recurring role of Emily Fenton on the BBC soap opera Doctors.[2] She then made an appearance in Series 4, Episode 17 of Waterloo Road as disruptive pupil, Tasha Lefton, which was aired on 29 April 2009 on BBC1.[3] Since 2022, she has hosted the abortion-themed podcast Aborsh from her home in Toronto. The first series of the podcast won the Planned Parenthood Toronto's Choice Award.[4]
