Ok, so as we sit here counting the last days of what turned out to be a very warm summer, one of the few things we get to look forward to in the fall is new TV. And being fashion conscious of course Ashton Kutcher produced "The Beautiful Life" is on the top of our list. For those of you who like me miss the very extinct Models Inc, oh come on you remember the fantastically bad 90s Melrose spin off, wait come to think of it, Melrose Place is getting a face lift, of course The Beautiful Life is the Models Inc of the new millenium.

Sorry got derailed...The Beautiful Life, which has gained some notoriety for star Mischa Barton's bouts with nervous breakdowns, has been doing the Gossip Girl thing, you know filming all over NYC and getting clicked by the paparazzi for their every move. The show follows the lives of three models; one a veteran of the industry (played by Marissa Cooper herself); one a show off tight dress wearing attention seeker (played by Ashley Madekwe); and the newby (played by Sarah Paxton)...

Now as we saw these three girls were doing their best model impressions all this week on the streets of New York and at same time in the same city, real supermodels, aka Victoria's Secret girls, were out and about promoting their upcoming show on NYC's myriad of morning shows. Which got us thinking... do you buy the fake models of The Beautiful Life, or are they no match for the likes of Marissa Miller and Alessandra Ambrosio? Well at least the Victoria's Secret girls looked like they showered...
