“What do you think about style network casting interns to give them a fall internship at a “prominent” fashion magazine and document their experience?”
Answer: I don’t. I just don’t care anymore. As a pathway into the fashion industry, I think it is just as legitimate as ANTM models & the Hills. Take that as you please.
Speaking of ANTM, Toccara looks fieeeerce [does the Ms. Jay finger wave] in the new Vogue Italia!! But remember kids, for every Toccara-in-Vogue-Italia there are 50+ Adrienne Currys… Remember this?
Would love to hear your opinions: Sound off!

all i have to say is congratulations to toccara for being in vogue italia. she looks fabulous.
I think the choice is really up to the individual. Personally, I would never do a reality type of thing. For one, I don’t want my life on TV. And then I don’t want to be known as the girl that was on a reality show and is ‘famous’ because of that. The stigma associated with it isn’t worth it to me. I rather be known and get known for my real talents and contributions…
But, it is amazing to think that today, you can launch your career by winning a reality show or being on one. These opportunities weren’t possible before and could very well be the ticket for those that really do have skills!
Hahaha I would NEVER go on a reality show, but I mean, I guess…whatever puts your foot in the door? If American Idol can launch legit singers like Kelly Clarkson, I suppose a hardworking person can reap success in fashion this way too…
HMM. Thanks for answering my question. I don’t think I’ll try out for that show anyway. I agree with Katlin at urple. The stigma ain’t worth it. You never know if you will be portrayed in a good way or in a negative way.
Secretista –
Ya, my friend who does “reality” TV pretty much told me their job isn’t to “make you look good” it’s to get ratings, so you hit that one on the mark! haha
