Is Ruby Rose Destined To Be Used By Experimental Girls With Boyfriends For All Eternity?
3:23PM Jess McGuire | I have been very open about my desire to see Jess of The Veronicas ditch her ridiculously pretentious rock’n'roll boyfriend Azaria (from the band formerly known as The Follow and now apparently known as theArt – you may take a moment to furiously vomit blood upon reading that, if you like) in favour of MTV VJ – and, more importantly, Jess’ favourite same-sex pash partner – Ruby Rose. But you know what? If things can’t work out between Jess and Ruby Rose, then I just want Ruby Rose to be happy.
So when I heard she’d been stepping out with another young hot lady, this time Samantha Downie of Australia’s Next Top Model fame, I was pleased for her. But what’s this? The hottie has a boyfriend and her experience with ladytime has been filed under Drunken Fun? And her appearance on the arm of Ruby Rose won’t be resulting in a Lohan-Ronson like relationship?
This feels like deja vu, people.
She kissed a fellow Australia’s Top Model contestant on a wild night out, but despite turning up at a star-studded party with openly-gay MTV presenter Ruby Rose, Samantha Downie has no plans to do it again.
BOOOOOOOOOOOOO.
Still…. tell us more, Daily Telegraph gossip gurus! More » ANTM Third-Placegetter Sam Would Like To Let Demelza Know That She Has Been Beaten To The ‘I Got A Modelling Campaign’ Crown
12:01PM Clem Bastow | Briefly in the last flurry of post-show Australia’s Next Top Model news, Melbourne girl and second runner-up Samantha Downie, who many were surprised to see booted in favour of Demelza, has already signed to Priscillas (i.e. the agency that takes on the winner) and booked her first campaign, presumably before Demelza has even had her post-party Berocca.
From the Herald Sun:
The Melbourne Uni student emerged yesterday as the dark horse of the contest after it was revealed model agent Priscilla Leighton Clarke signed her weeks before the program ended. Downie is the face of designer Gail Elliott’s brand, Little Joe.
Elliott, who befriended Cindy Crawford, knows what makes a top model.
“She told me I was her favourite, and not to worry about coming third because my career was going to go just as far,” Downie cooed.
Well, just as far as what – a hurried Vogue shoot, maybe a Just Jeans catalogue, and then a spot on Where Are They Now? in ten years time? Don’t sell yourself so short, Sam. More »
