I went to open calls this summer and this was totally my 'hook'. It was a complete joke for obvious reasons, but still, I figured it couldn't be long until they did something like this. I'm hoping that if she wins, she'll refuse to do the CG contract and make a point. Other problems? The show could quite easily, and probably will, twist a lot of what she says and does. And that could be very bad. Hopefully she has a good head on her shoulders, but I cringe to think of what could go out to millions of homes. I hope they showcase her values fairly and treat her with respect. It's not going to be easy or fun to explain to the producers that she won't wear leather heels or fur, or pose with an animal, or a hunk of dead meat. ~ Recent blog post: <a href="http://www.not-quiteright.net/tvg/2008/09/a-conflict.html" rel="nofollow">My conflict.</a> at http://www.not-quiteright.net/tvg ~ This was so supposed to be me.

As I love playing the devils advocate, I find it funny how some people who suddenly for some reason wants to be part of something that is sometimes opposite of what you stand for. She is vegan, but she might be on the cover of a magazine who uses make-up tested on animals. Sorry, but I don't see the logic to be honest. That's kind of like a vegan joining a hotdog eating contest, because eating contests are fun. ~ Recent blog post: <a href="http://lazyvegan.wordpress.com/2008/09/15/do-bittorrent-need-more-bad-publicity/" rel="nofollow">Do BitTorrent need more bad publicity?</a> at http://lazyvegan.wordpress.com ~ That can be an interesting show, but I also it might get some vegan’s knickers in a twist as I guess there will (which I hope not) some anti-veganism.
