Summary

Emily DiDonato is the first supermodel in hell! She's been the face of Maybelline, Giorgio Armani Perfume, and has worked for major brands such as Victoria's Secret, Miu Miu, Oscar De La Renta, Guess, and many more. She talks about how she got discovered in a mall in Connecticut and started working while still in high school. She opens up about how she was pressured to spend $10k on designer clothes whenever she shopped in Paris from her agencies, losing weight for campaigns, being rejected, and her opinion on "nepo babies" in the modeling industry. She also explains the wild story of how she met her husband on an airplane!
