Subject: I have to share
Message: My daughter, Kristina, is auditioning this morning for UPN's America's Next Top Model. She has worked so hard to realize her dream of becoming a model. All she needs is a little break, to be in the right place at the right time. Send up a little prayer, that if this is her time and her place, then it will be. She is so deserving!!!

Message: Deb, best of luck to you and your daughter.
I can't believe I'm admitting this here - some of my friends/co-workers don't even known it - but I modeled for years. I want to caution you that it's NOT all glamour and big bucks. It's hard work, and TONS of scrutiny which can create a sense of inferiority. Keep an eye on your daughter - make sure she's having FUN and keeps a realistic perspective on things. At 5'9" I weighed 122 lbs. and thought I was a blimp. Don't let that happen to your daughter. Let her know she's beautiful on the inside and outside. Best of luck to you and her.

Message: Thanks ladies. We have always stressed to them how beautiful they are, maybe that's the problem.....lol (Just kidding). She has our total support - in or out. In my book, she is already a winner, but I am just the Mom, what do I know. She has had enough "gigs" to know that it's not all glitz and glamour, so I think she is pretty realistic. She is only 23 (I know that is old in the model world), but she has already been though so much and has lots of life experiences.
I just talked to her. She is number 332 in line. They said that they should be able to get in 300-350 today. So, keep you fingers crossed that the line moves swiftly. She also said that several "stations" have been up and down the line with cameras and snapped her photo a few times. That's a good sign, right??? I'll keep you posted.

Message: Okay - she just called, she made it in to talk to the producers. Now, it's a waiting game. The deadline for submissions is Feb. 23rd. After that they will contact those who they want to see again and the process begins. At least she made it in. She said that there must have been 1000 girls in line - she was number 332!!!

Message: Deb,
Thanks for filling us in on what happened - I had been so
curious to hear. She must have wonderful composure to handle
being among the crowds, the pressure of meeting the
producers, etc. I am rooting for her to be called back, and I'm
sure she must have some great behind-the-scenes stories
already!
Jill
