Incognito Audience members and Designer Dish!
It’s Friday, which you know means it’s time for The Dish! Lara starts out with Rachael’s book tour, and the bengay wrap she had to wear to get through the signings. Lara has something that might help - it’s bengay without the smell, and it’s even safe for pregnant women and children and was developed for those with carpel tunnel syndrome Topricin Pain Relief Cream. It’s not cheap, but it’s really effective.
Now to the fashion stuff:
– 1154 Lll Studio handbags. They’re custom made, and you can even have purse parties at home where they send a rep with fabrics and everything. Prices range from $20-200.
– B’s Purses - they also do at home parties, and you can become a party rep, have a bag party and make up to 26% of the purses that range in price from $35-150.
– Kissable Couture Lip Gloss - it goes from day to night, with a buildable pigment. Reapply and the color darkens with each coat. They’re each named after boys, which is also uber cute.
Time to play Audience Incognito! Today’s prize is a trip for two to Cable Beach Resorts. The Clues: on tv for over 11 years, learned to speak English from watching tv, has three kids, married on tv to their real life wife, often subs for Regis with his co-star wife - it’s the fake camera man Mark Conseulos, Kelly Rippa’s hubby!
He joins Rachael at the kitchen table, and talks a bit about living life in front of the camera, and how they deal with it. He does caution that everything Kelly says, bout half of it is exaggeration, but it’s all in fun. He’s in a new romantic comedy on the Oxygen channel called Husband for Hire. He got to work with one of his heroes - Erik Estrada. He is a child of the 80s, huh? He says he was the coolest guy. After the clip, he laughs and says of the scene with Mario Lopez “And then? We rip our shirts off…” Now that’s the way to get us to watch a movie!
Next up - when we think of Models, it’s all about the tall thin blonds… until now. The new model agency Ugly NY, the quirkier you look, the better. It’s all about being unique and different, special. Advertisers are finding that real people are giving them a success that they didn’t anticipate, getting covers in some pretty high profile mags.
The owner Simon Rogers, brought it from England where it’s been running for years by a friend of his. He says Now the idea is perfect for the times, because more real people are being used in advertising. It’s nice to see people who we can relate to in advertising. It’s an idea who’s time has come. Of course, being called “Ugly, New York” can get some interesting reactions. He’ll actually stop people on the subways and such, and hand out cards, and says he’s had a few funny looks, but never an outright bad reaction.
How much do they make in comparison to Top Models? Anywhere from $0 - 15k a day, it all depends on the job, and the person. He says one person he knows in London has made $250k in the last year, but he’s “a special kind of ugly, he’d been beaten by the ugly stick pretty well.” Roger says, with the top models, people come in and create the image. Ugly New York’s models ARE the image. Roger then surprises the warm-up guy, RC, with the offer of a modeling contract, especially knowing that he has a twin brother! Way to go RC!
