comments:
Not only is she part of a new generation of models that have overtaken the "waif" trend, Josie Maran also brings a new mentality among models and remains realistic about her future. We think that she has a bright career ahead and see good things coming to her.

Having appeared in various advertisements, she has recently been a Guess? Girl. But she is still having problems standing of the crowd in the fashion world. After all, there are a lot of pretty faces out there.

Sports Illustrated Swimsuit 2002 (2002)

Title: Sports Illustrated Swimsuit 2002
Released: 2002

Comments: As you can imagine, most sane women are not very fond of DVDs such as this one. Me, being a male, I have to admit it's extremely attractive stuff. It's an escape to exotic locations and beautiful women. The moment you start watching, you just sort of stop what you're doing and your jaw sort of drops and all. And when it's over, you just want to watch your favorite models again. It's not really an ethical thing to be watching, to be honest. But if you're into that kind of stuff, then it's a feast for the eyes. If I were to say which is the best looking model, it'd be between Heidi Klum, Elsa Benitez, Ana Beatriz Barros, and Yamila Diaz-Rahi. But it's too close to call. It's hard not to say Yamila, though. She really incinerates on this one. (Of course, I don't think it would be fair to not include Josie Maran in there. She's extremely hot as well. I was disappointed, though, that Chandra North wasn't in it. I think she's right up there with the rest. And of course, all of them are pretty, so much so that you do wonder how you can compare this unbelievable beauty with more unbelievable beauty.) In my opinion, seeing the DVD is like, ten times better than looking at the magazine because you get to see them in real life, in full color, right there. I like the DVD far more than the magazine, really. It really makes you feel like you're there. If you love living in a fantasy world with a dozen attractive women hanging out with you on the beach or wherever, I guess you'd probably like this DVD. It shouldn't be legal for women to look this good, to be honest. But at least for now, it is.

Personal quotes
"I'm still figuring out why people would want to look at me. Maybe it's generic beauty, but it's weird to be valued for something I was born with."

"I'm a totally sexual person."

"I just don't know how sexy I can be."

"I was on a farm, just having fun."

"Terry is like a good director - he frees you, and, well, Maybelline just wasn't psyched about the whole thing."

"It's hard to watch the film," she claims, hiding her face with her hands. "I was so nervous and scared that I was tight, instead of just having fun." Stressing, "I know now I have so much more to offer."

"My dream is to have sex twice a day. Every time I get into bed, I want it."

"I want to become a real actress. You can't model forever. I'd like to go to Juilliard to study acting and then get kicked out after one year. But I don't want to get typecast as The Pretty Girl. I've played The Dark Girl in a few commercials, and I like it. My dream role is the serial killer Juliette Lewis played in Natural Born Killers. She's powerful. Sex, drugs, and rock'n'roll."
