Miss J has a book coming out titled, “Follow the Model: Miss J’s Guide to Unleashing Presence, Poise and Power,” in which he (she?) tells of a story about being denied acces to a particular fashion show. When he arrived, a man told him,  “I’m sorry to do this to you, but I’ve been told they really don’t want you here.” Miss J didn’t cause a scene, but was embarrased. He writes,

I still don’t know why I was shut out of that show…As fate would have it, the same Brazilian designer later begged the producers ofANTM for two weeks to do our final runway show for cycle twelve with them in Brazil. All I have to say about that is God don’t like ugly, and Rosa Cha was such a a [sic] better choice and a total dream to work with.

Brazilian designer? Hhmm…Idk. But, you got to watch where you step in those stilettos. Source
