Who the f*ck are these models, anyway


Perhaps the foul mood has been triggered by arriving at the office at an eye-scorching 7:15 this morning. Anyhoo, I clicked over to style.com just now, home of my beloved Vogue, for a look at what's cooking in the Model Diaries (http://www.style.com/vogue/modeldiaries/080807 if you care enough to cut and paste. I'm guessing you don't.)

Who the fug is this Coco Rocha model they're profiling anyway? This is Vogue. Vogue. Don't they have some damn clout? Can't they get anyone better than Natalia Vodianova? Other that the unillustrious Coco who may or may not be a full-blooded Irish lass, they've got some waif called Raquel Zimmerman from Brazil. I mean, come on. We all know that real supermodels come from Canada. Where's Daria Werbowy, Irina Lazareanu. Oh yeah, they do have a profile on Shalom, but who the hell cares about her anyway.

Ohh, big early 90s flashback. Remember Montreal Yasmeen Ghauri back in the Naomi Campbell/Christy Turlington/Claudia Schiffer heyday? She had big (for a supermodel) rounded shoulders. Of course, that probably means that they were 12 inches across.
