It doesn't make sense that someone working in fashion/beauty would have no fashion sense at all.

I watched about 10 minutes of it then turned it off.


She does, but it's her own. And the show uses it to their advantage. I doubt her character would know what to wear if she tried. Clearly anyone can see that if she took off the glassess and got rid of the braces, she's actually really pretty. Easily. I had wondered how she got the job in the first place, but the first episode clearly establishes that Daniels Dad hired her because she had no fashion sense. She didn't get the job, but he had her hired anyway.

Is it suppose to me the American remake of a Spanish show. I watched the spanish version once (don't speak a lick of spanish) it looked rather pratty, possibly more interesting.

I've seen one and a half episodes, and I kinda like it, but again in a not-concentrating, half asleep way, which is really the only time I watch TV anyway!

and if you really watch it, its not only the Queerest, its actually the most understanding of the parents "saying ok and loving their lil gay kid."


I really like that story line. They are doing it pretty well. Though I do think Justin is a little over the top, unless gay kids are acting that way now. When I was growing up you kept that under wraps, if you even knew what was going on. I don't think Justin is quite aware of himself yet.

I saw that kid doing an interview a while back and he's basically just being himself on that show. lol

They didn't hire her because they thought she'd be a good fit for a fashion mag. Plus, she's just an assisstant. The owner hired her because his son was the new editor and he kept sleeping with his assisstants. He wanted to give him someone who wouldn't be so "distracting" so he could concentrate on the job and not drag the magazine into the toilet.

Alrighty, we now had about 4 or 5 episodes of this show in Australia now and it has been hyped beyond belief.

Is it supposed to be a comedy?

Cos I'm still waiting for the laughs.

It is the most dull, overhyped rubbish I have seen for ages.

And on another point, what's the story with putting bad hair, braces, bushy eyebrows, glasses and braces (teeth) on an otherwise pretty enough girl, just to bring home the "ugly" cliche.

What a pile of turds.

I think that every week lol But in the first episode they established that a fashion mag wasn't her interest, BUT she needed the job.

I love the halloween episode when she's dressed up like a butterfly or some shit, looking so fucking bad, & some guys on the street whistle @ her. She looks & says, "ME??!!" They're like, "yea!" The look of JOY on her face & the quiver in her voice when she says, "THANK YOU!!" like it's THE best compliment she's ever received in life is fucking priceless lol
heart prince I never met you, but I LOVE you & I will forever!! Thank you for being YOU - my little Princey, the best to EVER do it prince heart

The Colombian was the first one and it was quite funny to see once in a while.

When she gets a make up, changes glasses, has a better hairdo and dresses more properly you expect to find a stunning beauty but she is



You think, next they'll take out her glasses and braces but no shake That was all the improvement
