Just to switch things up today, I wanted to post an interview with male model Jamie Strachan. There is always so much stereotyping about male models - even more so than female ones, sometimes - but I think you'll find that Jamie is just your typical guy (except just a TAD bit more gorgeous than most). He's made a living working for top names like Gucci, Hugo Boss, Versus, Kenzo, and Dries van Noten. He is currently #36 on the male model rankings on www.models.com!
