WELCOME TO PARIS!
today i have a test with a dear dear friend from superstudio who searched the whole week to find a model and didnt find what he was looking for--and then remembered me! we have seen eachother a lot in the superstudio and stefano, has always been superkind to me. i always said to him, if he ever wanted to do a test i would be so happy to shoot with him. HE REMEMBERED ME AND PHONED! we are shooting haught coutour clothes. i got to shoot with this top guy model who lives in paris. he was awesome person! he is studying mathmatics, speaks italien, french, spanish, sweedish, and english. super intelligent! illaria came with me and watched the whole production. we finished at 1am!
i got up at 9am this morning to shoot at 10am with marco cremascoli for flair magazine! yoga photos. it was so wonderful because they let me do advanced postures instead of the normal easy stuff! they let me warm up before and the hair and makeup of laura valsecci was awesome! the stylist ornella put me in the new collections from nike and christie turlington/puma! what a workout! i cant wait to get the new photos for my website when it comes out in the magazine. some links:

ALL NIGHT LONG!
up at 10 and off to castings! wow this is what they say happens to supermodels! they work 24/7! hehe only a little taste for me. back to the commercial at midnight to shoot in via dante all night long! this time there were 4 of us and i sang to everyone in order to stay awake all night! i have to say i worked with one guy who was really amazing actor and persona. can you tell who from the pic at the right? he made so much fun with me! it was a pleasure. everyone was very happy with the result and we laughed and joked together throughout the night. our sceen centered around the four of us walking down the street (lit from behind with those BIG movie lights) laughing together, with a street cleaning truck behind us spraying the pavement. at a certain point we see it about to spray us and we jump over it! it was a very beautiful light and a lot of fun people. no where to pee in milano at 5am, though!
working on the commercial is so much fun! the food situation i have to say is really bad...only bread and cakes available. why they never have fresh veggies to snack on? we shot in the beautiful cavalli cafe and i got to meet one of the owners who had two beautiful white dogs. we started shooting at 12am and finished at 6am! i went to sleep for two hours, got up and i am off to castings! rock and roll life...gotta rock it and keep rolling!
WOWOWOWOWOWOW! i just booked a commercial in milano and i will shoot two nights in a row! thats going to be tough and i am so up for it! when you want to live your dream, you have to suck it up and do the deal happily. i will be on sky tv too they said! still waiting to hear from paris...

well i am moving houses again. i applied to an agency in paris because i would like to try for the shows, and now i will go to stay with one of my dearest new friends from the movie, illaria, till i find out if they accept me. she lives in a funky part of milano in a micro flat with her sister. they are convinced it will be a lot of fun with all of us there! illaria is who makes it fun! have to say, i am sad to go from superstylie 26a. ah well...the yogi's say...you can live in the palace, just don't be attatched to it. it's been the nicest time...
so if you dont have their new address, click on the photo to the right to get it. they have new telephone numbers too. click here to see photos of the new office inside! they are going to put a juice bar/model hangout downstairs!!! some good links:
raphaela proll, a photographer i worked with in vienna, liked our photos so much she blew me up big and put me in her livingroom. i am so honored! she's so awesome! i am also on her website in the news section with my green finger.
rocked it this weekend on a special invite of me and illaria to the 25 year celebration anniversary of DIESEL in bassano!
Diesel, is one of my favorite companies. the messages that renzo rosso puts out there using the system to communicate is brilliant. from what i am have seen, the working style at diesel is primarily based on non contamination (hence bassano) to ensure the purity of the product in it's design. also, the people working there seem to enjoy it lots, work their asses off, and hang out in a very rainbow style manner.
MOBY PLAYED LIVE! illaria and i wangled our way as front as possible using every tirick in the book, to have a great view of MOBY and the stage. the light design was amazing. they had LIVE PERFORMANCES OF FIRE TWIRLING MAD MAX ADVENTURE STYLE people on stilts! they had a woman dangling upside down from a baloon flying and twirling in the air. they had this maze of light which illa and i stayed in for over 3 hours exploring its caverns, patterns, and caves. dancing at the end to dj cocolotto! what a night!
hey! if anyone would like to see my latest composite or print it out click on the photo to the left. i love my card!
