“Release the models!”
“It’s time for a quick run-through.”
It takes an extra moment for Petra Vujevic to break free from her chair, where she is surrounded by three stylists trying to tame her long blonde hair into a “punky ballerina” bun. The head stylist is teasing sections of her natural hair while another tends to neon pink extensions woven into her ponytail. A third handles clips and brushes. (more…)

The thought of modeling camp where teens are taught to be a little more like Kate Moss may raise a few eyebrows. And, even though we’re fashion enthusiasts ourselves, we can’t help but cringe when we think of young girls preening for an industry that hasn’t exactly proven to be kid-friendly.

Search to Find a Male Model
THE PRICE IS RIGHT is holding its first-ever search to find a male model. The search will air as a five-episode web series competition on priceisright.com and youtube.com/priceisright in late September. The winner, who will be chosen by viewers, will win a one-week modeling gig on the game show. The search will begin with an open casting call in Los Angeles on Thursday, August 30, when the male model hopefuls will be interviewed and judged by the show’s female models and show producers on qualities such as their verbal skills, posing and ability to properly showcase a product. Contestants who are selected to move on will participate in a series of challenges designed to reveal who has the best on-camerapresence and modeling skills. The judges will eliminate contestants after each challenge, but at certain points, one of the two contestants who finish in the bottom of a challenge may have the chance to win their way back into the competition. At the end of the web series, up to six contestants will remain, where it will be up to the viewers to determine the winner.Following the competition, the finalists will be revealed during the Friday, Sept. 28 episode of THE PRICE IS RIGHT. Viewers will have the opportunity to vote online for their favorite model at priceisright.com through Thursday, Oct. 4.

When it was announced that Dolly magazine had resurrected their Model Search competition this year it reignited debate over the appropriate age for young women to enter the industry. Some suggested that 13-year-old winner Kirsty Thatcher was far too young for the bloody body image battle that apparently awaits her, and others, including the magazine’s editor Tiffany Dunk, claim that she’s not just a well-proportioned clotheshorse but also a positive role model for the young readership.
While it’s a legitimate discussion that will hopefully lead to better safeguards being implemented in terms of workplace supervision and encouraging healthy lifestyles, focussing solely on age keeps the attention away from other equally important concerns facing models today. Concerns that go largely unchallenged.

I just got some wonderful feedback about my book from a mom of an aspiring model. This made me smile.
“Thank you again for your input. I loved the book and found it very helpful! I just gave it a great rating on Amazon “Susanpa.”
I think we’ll go to DNA for the experience and then I’ll just wait a few years.
Continued success on the book and to your lovely daughter! I think you’re a great example on how to help your daughter pursue modeling the right way and for the right reasons!
Have a wonderful Summer!!

Where did Tyra Banks find the new judges for her show? Did she do a model casting or something, because the two new guys joining her on Americas Next Top Model are hotter than one of the girls weaves after sitting under studio lights all day. The CW confirmed today that male model Rob Evans will join Tyras judging panel and that Johnny Wujek will be the girls “mentor,” serving the roles of both Mr. and Ms. Jay. Fashion PR maven and two time reality show veteran Kelly Cutrone, who joined the panel this year to replace Vogue laureate Andre Leon Talley, will stay on again for next year. (more…)
