How to drive a cover model ’round the bend, in ten easy steps…
Monday, April 21, 2008 14:38Hi folks – haven’t been around a lot the last couple of weeks due to a work project. But I just couldn’t pass this one up…
After I read Lynne Connolly’s report from RT about the cover model who Lost It, I wondered how does a cover model go about losing it, and is there anything we can do to help them along. I came up with the following list. Please feel free to add to it. Or criticize me for being an insensitive witch. I’m surprisingly okay with either reaction.

10. Replace their baby oil with WD40 and then ask them to sit on a hard chair. That might be kind of fun actually…
9. Replace all the mirrors at a shoot with fun-house mirrors.
8. Put Ben-Gay in their thong/jock and then make then stand still for three hours during a photo shoot.
7. Tell them they have to pose with this woman.
6. Replace their hair gel with the stuff used in There’s Something About Mary (yes I know what it was).
5. Tell them they’re actually Fabio’s love child with this woman.
4. Tell them their next Harlequin “guys & daughters” photoshoot is with this little girl.
3. Tell them the trend is hairy men, right after a full-body wax.
2. Tell them Nathan Kamp got all of the cover model jobs left. Oh wait…

1. Don’t give the Mr. Romance award to them!
