I am so pleased that during my internship, I was able to work on a cover story. ELLE SA have not done a cover story in a while, and the emmergence of the South African starlet- Vanessa Haywood, was the perfect opportuinty. Vanessa is the star of the blockbuster movie District 9. It's great to see talent coming out of Africa and being celebrated by other Africans! Here are some shots from the shoot and the cover options. The final cover choice is the opening shot, above. Enjoy & Stay fabulous! xxx

I'm sorry to say, but I've seen her (Vanessa Haywood) in the flesh and she's nothing without make up and photoshop. In fact i've been told by someone who she asked to try and get her some overseas movie work that she is a rubbish actress and will never make it outside of SA. She's a social climber who has no morals or ethics, but that's a completely different story! Its so sad as she could really have been a good role model!
ReplyDeleteShe's beautiful. I loved her in District 9 and I'd love to see her come to America and make it in the LA movie business.
