Miss J’s Top Model Advice
Ah, Miss J. Alexander, catwalk guru of the fashion world, and ANTM advice-giver. Now you can get the scoop straight from Miss J’s lips as to what to do and what not to do as a Top Model hopeful.
DO: Know when to be a diva
When it’s time to work it for the cameras, give plenty of attitude – but know when to turn it off. “You should be a diva on the runway or the stage, but not behind the curtains,” says Alexander. “Don’t forget these four important phrases – yes, may I, thank you and please.”DON’T: Complain
Even if you think an outfit you’re supposed to model is hideous, just grin and bear it. “You can be upset but you can’t verbalize it,” says Alexander. “Sometimes you’ll get an ugly dress. But the right model can make an ugly dress look expensive. It happens all the time. Just make it work and walk with confidence and gusto.”
[Thanks, Arieanna]
