Yeah well. I’ll be one of the little pretty malcontents to have an opinion on this. First of all, if I friend you, think of it as we share the same industry, therefore logically it’s assumed we could have things in common. It’s akin to actors friending every single one of their co-stars. And nothing’s wrong with that, is there? Personally, if you

I felt it needed to be said. There are more than a few new faces and if that was one of their first experiences here, it's a bad one. I wouldn't say models are more transitory than the actors or musicians. We just see it more because there are so few of us.

I'll bet Matt is very welcoming. Think you could point him in my direction too? I kid, Kate, but it was out there. It wouldn't be me if I didn't take it.

From what I heard, not very many people took the time to put anyone up for nomination in a lot of those categories. So of course the nominees reflect the choices of the ones who made the effort in the first place. Hell, from what I can see, a group of five friends could have gathered together to nominate each other and all five would have been in the running. I just think it's pointless to be disappointed when the effort wasn't made to begin with, you know?

If this is the dawning of a new age in our profession, hear hear and more power to the catwalkers. But if it's only a boom because it's a boom then I'd rather paint my nails or fuck my boyfriend.

If models are the next big Parisian circa 1930's movement, then I'm glad to be in the In Crowd. I think your boyfriend should paint your nails for you and then you fuck him as an elaborate thank you.

[amber_valletta]

I've got entries about both situations if you can believe it. Can you? Now can you feel it?

[b_santos]

I had a temporary lapse of inanity, Amber. Obviously, you're way ahead of the rest of us. I don't have a boyfriend to varnish my nails, but I do have a few numbers to call for a gratitude fuck if that counts for anything.

[amber_valletta]

I'd varnish your nails, Bruno. Only a few?

[b_santos]

I could use a treatment, Amber. And yes, a few. The ones I can put names to. You know the drill, yeah? And thank you.

Prep yourself with the hot wax before I show up. I've got three colors: red, red, and red. Gentlemen's choice. You're welcome. It wasn't a peace offering. A model without 50 is like a deck without 52.

[b_santos]

I really hate hot wax, but for you, I'll do it, albeit reluctantly. But. It's a worthy cause, so no complaints from the cheap seats. I'll choose the middle red, thanks. I look at this as Reagan having dinner with Kruschev, only without the whole nuclear weapons thing.

[amber_valletta]

Why do you hate it so much? That red will compliment your eyes. No Nukes, No Valletta. That was the slogan they passed on. Know why? Because it didn't make any fucking sense.

[b_santos]

My hatred is pragmatic. Hot wax is immediate association with ripping body hair out. I don't care how great the results look, going through it is a real fucker. The red will really go well once I do my Exorcist party trick. It's a real crowd pleaser. I'm available for conventions and anniversaries.

[amber_valletta]

The trick is this: take a very deep breath as the wax goes on. Scuba deep breath. Focus on the heat and the soothe and the honeysick smell. Then push all that breath out of your lungs as the wax is being ripped off and your hair is coming out at the roots. A primal scream helps sometimes too if you're that kind. Are you that kind? I am but only when they're doing my arm pits. Is your mother named Rosemary? This comment is too long.

[b_santos]

Am I the kind to scream? It'd really have to be something worth screaming about, but yeah. I lose it all the time.

My mother's name isn't Rosemary and she looks nothing like Mia Farrow, but I was very tempted to say her name was Regan and our family tries to keep her away from any and all crucifixes. On a related note, I do have Krzysztof Komeda's Rosemary's Theme on this harddrive.

My comment is longer.
