NEW YORK (AP) — These days,
being a supermodel is more than
looking good while striding down
the runway or posing for a maga
zine cover.
Fashion’s top faces are profiled
in newspapers and magazines.
They also make guest appearances
on television talk shows and land
acting roles in movies.
Rebecca Romijn-Stamos is at
the top of this new class of do-it-
all women.
She is the host of MTV’s “House
of Style,” which, in past years,
helped boost the careers of multi-
media models Cindy Crawford and
Daisy Puentes.
“It’s so much fun. It makes us
look a little more human,” she said
during an interview at MTV’s
Times Square studio.
MTV is celebrating the show’s
10th anniversary with special pro
gramming for “Fashionably Loud
Week,” to be aired Nov. 21-27.
To mark the event. Mademoi
selle magazine put Romijn-Sta
mos, Crawford and Puentes on the
cover of its November issue.
Romijn-Stamos said her job on
“House of Style” is to help young
women sort out all the styles, trends
and sources of influence in fashion.
“I’ve always been intimidated by
fashion, and I knew I wanted to
make it as disarming as possible and
take out the serious element as much
as I could,” she said.
“I try to come off as approachable
and have the people who watch the
show think I could be their friend —
and I could.”
“House of Style,” which does not
use cue cards or a TelePrompTer,
has taught her to think on her feet.
“I’ve learned to tell a story, be
funny, be interesting and engaging,
but keep it concise in a time
frame,” Romijn-Stamos said.
She learned the “fashion rules”
early in her modeling career in
Paris. But Romijn-Stamos, 27, said
she has adopted a more “rock ’n’
roll and relaxed” style since join
ing the show in December 1997.
“I’ve always been
intimidated by
fashion, and I knew
I wanted to make it
as disarming as
possible.”

humor about her body and her
profession.
She loves clothes and is willing
to try — or try on — almost any
thing. She has no trouble raiding

“I’m interested in arts management,” she said.
“Mark has great charisma and energy. We talked and
had similar ideas and standards. He also has vision,
which is so important.”
The idea for MSC OPAS’ Intimate Gatherings
came from board planning meetings last year. Per
ry said.
Intimate Gatherings is different from regular
OPAS performances because it gives the audience an
opportunity to interact with musicians after the per
formances through a question-and-answer session.
“A facilitator, either someone who is part of the
performance, or an outside person is brought in,”
Perry said. “That person leads the question-and-an-
swer session, which serves as the discussion.”
This format goes well with Powell’s mission for
the orchestra. His priority is to let the audience see
and feel the music, an experience possible with the
Intimate Gatherings series.
“My goal for the audience is to have them come
away ready to listen to more music and to explore,”
he said, “or to go to a concert they may not have
chosen to go to before. I want them to come away
with a better picture of how they hear music.”

The question-and-answer session to folio®

“All I’ll say is that you will see something
chestra has never really done before, and
at that,” he said.
Sponaugle said she hopes to introduce th
