Kelsey Merritt is now part of Viva Artist Agency

Viva Artist Agency formally welcome their newest angel, Kelsey Merritt.


Kelsey Merritt is a 23-year-old Filipino-American model based in New York City. Born in Pampanga, Kelsey started her modelling career in Manila wherein she appeared in several commercials such as Palmolive, San Miguel Light, and the local clothing brand Kashieca before moving to the United States of America to start her international career.


Kelsey made history as she became the first Filipino to walk down the Victoria’s Secret runway (2018), which caught the attention of the international media such as Teen Vogue and E! News. Moreover, in 2019 she also became the first Pinoy to be featured in the pages of the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue. Appearing in both Victoria’s Secret and Sports Illustrated is a rare feat for many models from all over the world, and Kelsey has already achieved that in just two years after debuting in the international modelling stage.

Kelsey is an AB Communication graduate at the prestigious Ateneo de Manila University where she finished at the age of 20.

Watch out for more of Kelsey's project as she is now part of the biggest talent agency in the Philippines, Viva.
