STORYLINE:
NATALIE MARTINEZ FROM MIAMI HAS THE RIGHT CURVES FOR J. LO
JENNIFER LOPEZ yesterday (27APR02) announced the young girl, one NATALIE MARTINEZ from Miami, who embodies the J. Lo look almost as well the singer and actress herself.
Martinez, whose curves are similar to Lopez's, was chosen from thousands of hopefuls from New York City, Los Angeles, Miami, Puerto Rico and Atlanta who entered the competition to represent Lopez's streetwear.
She said Martinez represented the look she wants for her clothing line, "J. Lo by Jennifer Lopez" , which is " the sexy new cool."
J. Lo announced the winner at Macy's Herald Square in New York, where six other finalists joined her on stage in front of hundreds of her fans.
Praising all the finalists she said it wasn't just about looks, or even curves: "It's about an energy, a great spirit and inner beauty that these girls naturally exude."
The "J. Lo by Jennifer Lopez" line debuted in retail stores in November 2001 and is targeted to women and girls with a desire for ultra-feminine, sexy, street-chic clothes at an affordable price. Miss Lopez is the creative director of the brand.
The model search was open to girls ages 16-25 in each of the five cities. The panel of judges included a representative from Sweetface Fashion Company, an editor from YM Magazine and a representative from
Next modeling agency.
J. Lo spent some time with the six finalists on Friday night and then announced the grand-prize winner Saturday morning to a crowd of J.Lo fans.
Winner Natalie Martinez will be featured in a J.Lo advertisement to run exclusively in an upcoming issue of YM Magazine.
