Editor’s Note Filipa Thespian, Editor-In-Chief Owner & Founder of Roleplay Guide Magazine I recently wrote a post on the Made to Model Facebook page about something that really struck me with a vengeance. I just tried to write something new on the subject, but my original was much better said so … I’ll say it again for you dear readers. In getting ready for our new reality TV show, Made to Model, wanting to make it something spectacular for all those who participate, I looked to one of my favorite television shows, you all know the one, thank you miss Tyra Banks for your bold brilliant brain on this front with America’s Next Top Model (by the way, love the haircut, very powerful)!

It was only after I watched the whole season, that I caught the news from February of something horrific. But I’ll come back to that... I had my favorites, and my not so favorites, but so did the cast. On the show, one girl stood out as the one I felt for because of her bad choices. She began in her plea video with her wish for the world of spreading more love than hate, only to come on the show bad mouthing, back talking, hate talking, putting people down and focusing on anything but the actual reason she was there. God, Mirjana could have been a serious contender, maybe even taken the crown had she focused on the reason she was there! But this isn’t the horrific thing. I actually liked her. I saw a confused gorgeous girl who was a product of her surroundings, who didn’t know how (yet) to make the right choices for herself. I was excited for her about the opportunities that would inevitably come her way because she made it pretty far and had some skills and definitely the beauty. 8 NU VIBEZ & ROLEPLAY GUIDE MAGAZINE Here’s where the horrific part comes in ...
