So you might have forgotten that even after all this time I am still an Ugly Model.
I went on an audition two weeks ago for a music video but was beat out by a little midget woman.
Lame.
I got an email from my booker the other day though and this kind of sounds promising...

How sweet would it be if I got a Times Square billboard before Matt or Anne did?

I'm ugly.
So a couple SARS-tastic weeks ago when I was lying on the couch dying from my hacking dry cough, I happened to catch an episode of Rachael Ray's talk show (yes, she has one) featuring a very handsome man named Simon who was CEO of this company called Ugly Models.
They are an agency in NYC that specializes representing "unique-looking" talent and models for photo shoots, commercials, etc etc.
Uglies, obeses, tatoo-eys, and of course, talls.
(They also have a few token hotties. But very few.)
Through the power of internet-smartness and deductive reasoning, I figured out Simon's email and sent him this picture.
Within minutes I had a response from Simon and a request to come in for a meeting next time I'm in New York.
............
So I went over to their Midtown offices and met with Simon and the rest of the Ugly staff.


The day was 2/8/08. A very lucky number in terms of Chinese numerology.
28 = easy money.
They signed me on the spot.

I was even sporting my sweet nose zit (which now is worse than ever).
They didn't care.

Actually that picture isn't that bad. Here's another.

I must once again sing my praises for the wonder of Photoshop.
I'm a model!
(For those new readers who don't know me, I'm 6'7".)
