A: ESB Productions and Gregory James have been doing this contest in conjunction with some of the largest icons in the industry since 2001 including Iconic sponsors like: CosmoGIRL! Magazine, Supermodel Niki Taylor, New York / LA Models and MasterCard. The Contest was created to help guide aspiring talent learn the basic interview steps to get into this industry and we feel that by charging an entry fee, the talent has an investment toward achieving their goal, plus they will receive information about the MODEL Prepaid MasterCard card.
