Glamazons Reunion The story opens with a Dressed Up magazine journalist, Julian Simons, writing the cover story on the Glamazons 25th Anniversary.

She was disfigured in a violent street attack, and never worked again as a star super model. It’s rumored she will attend the celebrat

What do Nuns, a Pop Star and a Convent have in Common? Three nuns sit watching an Alaia Jade music video on tv.
