I just can't quite make up my mind about Cara.
She's got the wonderfully maintained natural figure, she's got the 'name' glamour model kudos.
Today she comes on in a very nice black setup with suspenders, everything is in place...
And then I find myself thinking 'Does this girl even know she's on television??'
How often she just flops down on her stomach, chats on the phone like she's arranging a gas reading and does NOTHING.
It's surely a rectifiable thing and she's got an awful lot to offer but at the moment it's largely unfulfilled potential imo.
As has been said before it is a completely different skill to being a model in front of a camera being directed by a photographer where the results are then manipulated and edited. You don't need to open your mouth and speak and you are not constantly under scrutiny. It must take some getting used to and there are some girls who just don't get it or take to it. I think some think that because they have a name in industry circles as a model that all they have to do is turn up and take the money and everyone should be grateful. I don't see Cara as being like this and I do feel she is getting better every time and her personality is finally coming through. You're right that the skills can be taught and this is where Elite management come in as it is in their interests to get the girls performing. I like Julia and was pleased to see her back again yesterday but she still looks out of place and hasn't relaxed yet. Look at her other work and you wouldn't think it was the same girl!

That's it exactly, so it's clearly just a matter of adapting her to the format and then she can shine.
She's a relatively big name for a reason and its going to be a lot of fun when with the help of the Elite team (oo lucky Elite team
)
she learns the language and starts translating her 'Cara Brett 'thing'' into that language.
As for now it's possibly going to be a slightly frustrating transition to watch. But watch we must. Ah well.
I was in that particular quote referring to Julia who was back on Elite in the morning slot but the point does apply to Cara as well but she doesn't have quite as far to go. Cara does look comfortable with it now it's just we need more of her undoubted personality on screen. It is coming and I like you must force myself to watch.
Bit of a suprise to see the lovely Cara on the Breakfast show this morning.
give cara a chance she hasnt been on the show long
Nice to see her waring something this morning that wasn't black in colour.
Cara has just started on Elite and she is on till 9pm. She looks gorgeous in black
i wonder if elite are grooming cara to be their 'next big thing'. after all she has been getting more and more shifts recently, or maybe that has more to do with kitty's illness and danica's slightly unpredictable attitude as of late. excellent to see cara showing her underwear and great arse today- keep up the good work cara. one last query- with danica apparantly walking out earlier i wonder if cara could be persuaded to give the 9-11 shift a go
