Vogue talent contest 2007

[Beautiful Stranger]

I was very unsure about where to post this, but as it's about writing, i decided to post it here, as Vogue is some kind of entertainment too..

Does anyone know anything more about it? For those who haven't read about it :

It's a talentcontest featured in every Vogue March number, where young people under 25 are supposed to write an autobiography, a text about someone who's been important/inspired you, and a comment about a trend / similar. Dead line is 13th April, i think, and the winner will be featured in Vogue Oct. 07. The prize is 1000 £ and a months paid work at Vogue, with 500 £ for the runner up. Two members of the current Vogue UK staff, Harriet Quick and another i can't remember has both won the contest before.. Now. I have a few questions:

1. Is there a rule that says you must live in the UK? I couldn't find anything about it online or on Vogue's homepages..
2. Is there a LOWER "age-rule?" I know you can be over 25.. But do you have to be, say, over 15 or 18 or something?
3. Has someone actually sent in a text before?

Thanks in advantage

I really want to but I think the contest is for UK residents only. I would also love to hear if anyone else is going to enter! If this is the case, best of luck to you!

Ah, that would make sense. Only UK residents.. hmm. Nearly impossible to find any info =/
