Which one of you sent a note to all the models yesterday saying there would be prizes for the one with the stupidest display on the runway? Did you see poor Tiffany out there looking like a Candy Striper Vamp in some cartoon?

What’s even worse is that we confiscated a similar note today, telling the models they’re supposed to moon the audience as a group. I’ll tell you, if even ONE of those models so much as… Oh my God!!!!!!

The link to “candy striper” is a link to a vintage Barbie in candy-striper garb — that’s hysterical!

“Candy Stripper Vamp” would have been a delicious play on words, don’t you think?

Where is her left breast and what is up with the weird way she is walking?

Ugly shoes too. I’m so glad I’m unfashionable.

Response to SKY - It looks like the left breast (or is that an implant that has shifted) is near her armpit, I see a lump there.

Models ALWAYS walk weird…

I’m sorry ma’am, but the Ministry of Silly Walks cannot fund your study because they don’t find your walk silly enough.

“Where is her left breast?”

I’m not sure he has one.
