Surely not....

... a man that does his own washing? Evidently so, as this is James Brown showing us how it's done for Dr Beckmann Glo White. Whilst you're there James, stick us a load in...!

Boss bassist

As part of our ongoing introduction to the team at Boss HQ, we are delighted this week to celebrate our Director of Operations, Andy Burns. In charge of all the legal, client/model/staff welfare and health & safety aspects of the agency, he sure has a challenge each and every day... apart from Fridays that he has off... We were all fortunate enough last Saturday to share his passion and see Andy play in his band (see sneaky video snippet below). We were certainly impressed and can't wait for their next gig. Lets find out more about the chap....

Six names that you go by? Andy, Andrew, Burnsy, Chief, Keymeister, Love.

What is your preferred choice of transport and why? Steam locomotive, because they please so many senses – sight, sound, smell.

Do you have a favourite tipple? Real ale

If such thing was to exist, how would you enjoy a ‘perfect day’? Take a steam excursion to Oulton Park race track, thrash my bike round it all afternoon, play a gig in the evening at the corporate facility and have a great après gig party!

Do you have any pet hates? Prejudice of any kind

We know you like your music, so which band would you like to play in? Uriah Heep – check them out on

What would you consider as your best attribute? Different attributes are important to different people. I think the ability to remain calm under pressure is my best….. I SAID THE ABILITY TO REMAIN………..oh.

What is your favourite thing about working at Boss? The staff – they’re so eclectic! (good answer)

This one is all about Jennie Jones

It has been brought to our attention that we have so far only featured and interrogated our new in-house recruits, forgetting about the long standing members of the team! So in the run up to Christmas, each week we are going to blog and celebrate each member of staff. Who better to start off with, than the almighty and with legs through the roof, ex- model Jennie Jones, 5 years model booker extraordinaire. Can be emailed for model bookings or dates (!) at jennie@bossmodels.co.uk Lets get on with some down and dirty - get to know you - questions:

Three words that best describe you? Longlegs, hardworking, party-animal (probably shouldn’t admit to the latter!)

Who would you like to meet down a dark alley? Tom from Kasabian

Who wouldn’t you like to meet down a dark alley? A murderer

Which four dinner guests would you invite on a celebrity ‘Come Dine With Me’? My Wife, my Brother both are “celebrities” to me, Tom from Kasabian (a slight recurring theme going on here) & Elvis (isn’t he always included in questions like this???)

Do you have any recurring dreams? I used to dream that I was Superwoman, and would try to fly but everytime I did I’d fall down and get swallowed up by a hole in the ground. Hmmmmm…….

If we could teleport you anywhere in the world/time right now, where would you go? 7 May 2007, Lowenbrau Keller Bar, The Rocks, Sydney, Australia. Think we need to know more here....

What would be your death row meal and drink of choice? Proper fish and chips, mushy peas, scraps, heaps of salt and vinegar from a seaside Chippy, for example one in Scarborough and a French Martini

Football v's Fashion

















Harvey Nichols and Leeds United came together last week for the first time under one roof for an innovative fusion of splendour, sport and decadence to help raise £85,000 for Yorkshire Cancer Research. Boss models were more than happy to lend their support for this great cause.

New Junior Booker Alert

The first day of starting a new job is daunting enough, so to make matters worse for our new junior booker, a car decides to crash into her on her way into the agency. DOH and certainly not what she needed! A star trooper from the start though, Lucy Moores along with her stiff neck joined the team earlier this week and was happy to answer some of our lovely daft - get to know you - questions:

Six names you go by… Luce, Juicy, Juice, Moores, Mooresey, Oi

Three things you are wearing right now… Flowery leggings, denim shirt, Ugg boots

Two dreams for the future… To jump out of a plane and to learn how to cook.

Two things you want very badly at the moment… Some dressing for my pasta salad and to have lost at least 2 pounds at Slimming World tonight.

Two things you did last night… Read my book and Slept. (How boring?)

Two things you ate today… Banana and tuna pasta salad

Two people you last talked to on the phone… The guy at the garage about my car being a write off =( And my boyfriend =)

Two things you are going to do tomorrow… Complete my working day, then go to the pub.

Three of your favourite beverages… Dr Pepper, Malibu and Cranberry Juice & freshly squeezed orange juice.

Thank you and welcome Lucy!
