The drama continues...
...But I wonder, can you make a mathematical formula of it all. If Adriana Lima goes to Marilyn as early reports suggest, will she able to take her mega V/S contract with her? Standard business practice says no, which would mean DNA would still collect the hefty commission on the girl. But then there must have been an incentive for Marilyn to clinch the poach. That then begs the question of the fiscal strategy of the NY modeling agencies in the face of America's current financial crisis. The current guessing game is, which agencies are pumping on true revenue and which are counting on a continued line of credit to survive 2009. Let's just say December will create a definitive dividing line for many companies. The recent surge of investors into the NY modeling industry makes you want to start digging for the real financial picture behind the scene. And that would make for quite an interesting article.

and what about Women Losing Julia Stegner ...
Julia was a huge money maker for Women. Now that she's jumped ship I wonder how it will affect them? She was basically their biggest money maker. Not sure that just because some new faces are marching through their doors that they will be able to help pay the bills.
The VS Contract stays with DNA!!!
I was having lunch at Balthazar, which is by the DNA offices... and guess what I heard???? There was an agent from DNA literally two tables away. This person was going on and on about how they get to keep the most lucrative contract on earth, that being one Adriana Lima's with V/S!! So the rumor is 100% TRUE! They get to sit back, relax, kick up their feet and collect all the money while not having to do an ounce of work. Sounds good to me! I have no idea what Marilyn will be able to do as long as she's tied up with V/S but it sounds to me like they are in quite the pinch indeed.
