Real Housewife of NJ’s Daughter Signs With IMG

Those who tuned into Bravo’s drama-filled season of the “Real Housewives of New Jersey” know all about the free-spirited, flirtatious former model turned single mother of two Danielle Staub.

Her tenacious, over-the-top melodrama often stole the show as well as the attention away from others including her charmingly beautiful teenage daughter.

We all remember super proud pageant-mom Teresa forcefully trying to land her young daughter a contract with Wilhelmina Models. Teresa stopped at no end by constantly returning to the offices with new pictures of her daughter, because she didn’t understand Wilhelmina’s concept of “natural looking shots”, rather Teresa dressed her up like a prom queen each time!

Who would have known that the real supermodel of the show was Stauub’s 15-year-old humble daughter, Christine. Christine just recently was signed with the world’s number one modeling agency, IMG Models Worldwide.

The 5′10″ high school sophomore may not have received much camera time on her mother’s reality show, but there are no doubts that the new model will have plenty of exposure in front of the camera in the near future. IMG’s SVP and Managing Director Ivan Bart explains, “She came into the office and we were blown away!”

Possibly all of the focus on her mother’s rocky past, took the emphasis of just how beautiful Staub’s daughter really was. Danielle had her own series of on-screen blowouts, backstabbing betrayal the show as well as was forced to relive her troubled past as a mugshot and stories of an arrest linking to both drugs and a kidnapping back in 1986 began circulating.

Not only is she stunning, but the budding supermodel also has brains, too. Her mother recently told People Magazine, “My daughter reads lots and lots of books. So far, it’s books and not boys!”

Christine has stated that she has never done any type of modeling before, but looks forward to being guided by the best in the industry.

“I’m also getting used to industry people looking at my face so closely,” she said.

It must help that she has the support of the greatest agents in the world. “She has amazing potential as a model. If we had seen her on the street we would have signed her on the spot,” said Ivan Bart of IMG.

IMG is an international modeling powerhouse that is the management behind Gisele Bundchen, Kate Moss, Heidi Klum and Miranda Kerr, just to name a few of their famous faces.

Christine is still in the middle of her test-shoots and development. The agents are thrilled by their recent discovery and are already comparing her to supermodels Angela Lindvall (of IMG) and Christie Brinkley. While others are going as far as labeling her the next Kate Moss.

With all of her natural talent, combined with the recent development from trained professionals, the agents at IMG are hopeful that Christine will make her big debut at 2009’s fall/winter fashion week! Way to follow in your mother’s foot steps (for a positive thing!!!)

She may only be 15 and still in high school, but believe it or not many of fashion’s leading ladies currently hitting the catwalk are still “teenyboopers”! If she receives the success that is expected of her, Christine will have the choice between tending to her well-accomplished studies or perhaps a prominent long-term career in high-fashion!

Karlie Kloss just freshly turned 17 and she has been seen on runways for nearly every major designer around the world including Calvin Klein, Gucci, Alexander McQueen, Chloe, Valentino, Viktor & Rolf, Nina Ricci, Carolina Herrera, Doo.Ri, Jill Stuart, Marc by Marc Jacobs, Matthew Williamson, Alberta Ferretti, Just Cavalli, Pringle of Scotland, Pucci, Obedient Sons & Daughters, Jean Paul Gaultier, J. Mendel, and Oscar de la Renta. Kloss has also appeared on countless covers for top fashion magazines & been named the face of a handful of luxurious fragrances like Bvlgari’s Omnia Jade and See by Chloe. Kloss often is the opener or closer for runways shows and has been known to outshine fashion veterans nearly twice her age!

Other young catwalk queens include Katie Fogarty, Alisa Matviychuk and Taylor Momsen who are all 16-years-old.
