thank youWhat is Tara's last name?I barely remember her,was she big?

 

[OMIFAN9]

^I can't think of her last name...mainly b/c she just went by Tara. I saw her from 1988-1994 on the scene. She wasn't biiig,but was visible in my eyes. She was mainly in Elle magazines throughout the world from the US to Germany.

Ah,like Sebastian...i love her,but she seems to have been totally overlooked.

^^ You guys are awesome!! Thanks!!

Has anyone read Michael Gross' book Model: The ugly business of Beautiful Women? He has tons of info on the sups and the models of the 80s and 90s..Amazing research- one of my all time favorite books!

 

[OMIFAN9]

^I bought it and read a little over half of it and just stopped. Maybe I'll pick up again someday. Anyhow,you ever see this guy on tv?! He comes off as straight up male catty,even a little haterish at times,jokes.

 

[hfgl]

Yes he doesPersonally i don't want to read it.I'd rather stay with my perception of the models,even if they are wrong.

 

[OMIFAN9]

^Hilarious. I found out some things,but alot of it I knew or assumed so I guess thats why I stopped. I only bought it for the pics although they turned out to be not so great. Its this thing he has like with his manner...I mean its like I felt how do I know he didn't embellish the stories or cut some important things just to dish some dirt?! It left me feeling unsure.
