Paulina Porizkova is a Blogger

Paulina Porizkova, who was recently let go from America’s Next Top Model, wrote about the experience of getting fired for the Huffington Post. She writes about how being let go was both a blessing and a curse, and then explores the concept of getting fired and how it plays out in Hollywood.

While no longer being wanted is never fun, she became open to and excited by being a full-time mother again and being around for her children and husband in a way that Top Model didn’t allow:

When I was fired from “America’s Next Top Model” this past spring, two things hit me simultaneously: the heavy thud of realization that I am not wanted, not liked, not worth my salt, not loved–yes, I know this sounds a little over-the-top, but I have the tendency to run with the negatives–and the lightening of a burden lifted; I would no longer have to worry about missing my children’s recitals, date nights with my husband, and all that family life has to offer.

.

I have no idea if Paulina is going to become a regular correspondent for the Huffington Post (a lot of people, including ANTM alum Kim Stolx are) or if this post was a one time deal. Regardless, it was nice to hear Paulina’s side of the story after her anger had subsided. You can read her full post here.
