Sara(第六季)放棄Model事業

一直說要把這篇報導貼上來,太忙忘了。

Sara Albert from top model cycle 6 gave up modelling,
here's an article Worn Out on the Runway By Amy Argetsinger and Roxanne Roberts Friday, January 19, 2007

Sara Albert, the D.C. policy wonk who found whirlwind fame and an unexpected newcareer via "America's Next Top Model" last year, has fled the shallow rat raceof L.A.'s actress/model scene for the calmer pace and down-home values of . . .uh, well, anyway, she's moved back to Washington."My life's in D.C.," she told us. "Modeling wasn't enough for me."The '05 Georgetown grad, who was discovered by casting agents at Fashion Centreat Pentagon City, nearly won the Tyra Banks reality show (one gushing judgecalled the volleyball player a "6-foot-1 Scarlett Johansson!"). It inspired herto quit her research job at Advisory Board Co. last spring and pack her bags forL.A., where she signed with Elite and dyed her naturally blond tresses adramatic chocolate brown.She had fun and found work but was worn down by the long hours, wearying traveland endless auditions. "It's a really difficult industry," she said. "Everyother person you talk to is an aspiring actress or model. It's a very saturatedmarket. You feel replaceable. I don't want to feel like in my career that I'mreplaceable -- I want to feel like I can be loyal to an organization and it willbe loyal to me."Sound like a job hunter? Albert starts a temp job this week as a legal assistantfor a lobbying association, but she's still floating the résumé. Meanwhile,she's thrilled to be back with boyfriend John Hallmark (a Hill staffer andfellow Hoya) -- and back to being a blonde."The whole being-in-L.A., being-a-brunette thing -- it's not who I really am."
