It is sometimes difficult to figure out where the reality begins and the producing ends on The Janice Dickinson Modeling Agency, but it is kind of fun to see Janice go through her evolution as a businesswoman. She had high hopes that her agency would have the covers of French Vogue, Elle, etc, but the reality of having to pay the bills means that she has to suck up to some clients that lack the prestige of a Ralph Lauren or Calvin Klein. Hey, in the modeling industry, work is work, but would Janice have started the agency if she knew she had to kiss the ass of the likes of 1-800-DENTIST? I don't think so. The finale is tomorrow but we have a lot of drama to catch up with before we get to that.
Janice's first client of the day was Kevin Black from Interscope Records. Interscope started in the 90s with the likes of Gerardo and Marky Mark and the Funky Bunch, but now is one of the most successful labels at Universal Music Group with hit artists in Hip/Hop, R&B, and just about everything else. Kevin was visiting Janice on behalf of the artist Avant, who needed some hot ladies to accompany him to a party. When asked why he picked Janice, Kevin said that she is a groundbreaking person, but let's be honest, if there was anybody who was breaking ground at that meeting, it was Kevin, who was pushing four bills easy.
Who else gives you pictures of Janice's boobs uncensored?
Frederick's of Hollywood is a top name in the lingerie industry, and Peter and Kodi desperately wanted to be able to accommodate their needs, but there was a slight problem. Lingerie models need curves and most of Janice's stable were the high-end editorial, waif thin type. Perfect if you are tying to sell something on the runway, but not so great if you needed cared more about seeing a models' hips and not her ribs.
When Janice gets back to the agency, she is very upset because she believes that Peter and Kodi weren't trying hard enough. Kodi didn't want to send girls who didn't meet the requirements because it makes him look like a joke as a booker. Janice knew that there weren't many of her models that had a full set of breasts, but with a wonderbra and some double-sided tape, they could at least make a six piece chicken mcnuggets out of them. Peter is upset because he is trying to get the point across that they need more girls, but Janice is talking over him. In frustration, Peter slams the table, and that's when it hit the fan.
Janice doesn't like Peter's attitude and hey have had many arguments, and I am not sure why Janice picked this incident to get pissed off about, but I know I felt bad for Nathan, who was sitting in on this meeting and just hanging his head as his mother just went off on peter, pushing and shoving. Peter, who looked like he wanted to smack her across the face at one point, held his composure while Janice continued.

Awww... no screencap or mention of Janice FALLING OUT OF HER CHAIR? That was classic! Bitch had to be on something during that meeting with Kevin Black.
So has it been confirmed that a second season of this mess is going to happen? Janice still has got a lot of work to get this thing together.
*Thanks for the recap J-Unit! :)

Coincidentally, I went in for a mammogram this AM, possibly the only parallel between Janice's life and mine, besides being carbon-based organisms. Given Janice's plastic surgery addiction, there may be doubts about the second bit. They facility had little wet-naps that had the brand name, I kid you not, "mammowipes". Just thought I'd share.
Thanks for recapping this J-unit. When does ANTM return anyway?

i don't know what's wrong with Peter (oh i don't know..personal integrity?) that he would allow that leather faced twig to handle him the way Janice did. Totally uncalled for..you fling Skeletor off you, you tell it "fuck you" and you're out of there..see how fast she'll come crawling to him to apologize so that he doesn't sue her ass.

Not sure if thats how you would get skeletor off you? I think you need to perform some sort of ritual or interpretive dance, with garlic, and a skull/crossbones.
This show is the same show over and over. Her screaming and kvetching. I loved it for about 10 minutes, now I'm bored by her. Omarosa should show up, and they can throw down, like on the Surreal Life.
Peter is a pussy for putting up with her BS. Glad tonight is the last episode in the season. I wonder if there will more seasons? Maybe! This was a top rated show of The Oxygen Network. Sad, I know.

lol KH..interpretive dance! love it.
i saw the show for about 10 minutes myself and never watched it again. how can you watch a show about managing a business with someone who has no management skill for her own life let alone a business. i pass freaks like her on the streets of nyc everyday..you simply ignore them..while watching your back of course.
hey hb
