True story. I swear. Before she became a No Te Duermas model, Glerys wanted to be an advertising account executive. This was five years ago, and she did an internship at the ad agency where I was working at the time. She needed to work a number of hours for some university credit and we were the lucky agency to have her.
They tell me that she wasn't a half bad intern. She seemed to grasp the whole advertising game, except for the dress code part. She used to go to work wearing the shortest dresses in the world, and with slits on the side. Let's say there are waitreses at Diva's who dressed more demurely. Every day she would surprise us with a different stripper type outfit. Whenever she arrived, all the guys in the agency would soon alert each other..."tienes que ver como vino Glerys hoy." And every day she would surprise us with a shorter skirt.
It was a truly weird time. Because we would see her at work during the day and then see her at night showing her ass on tv. There are very few instances when one can say that about a co-worker.
Unfortunately, she ended her internship in a couple of months.
But....months later she called the head of the account dept. to ask for advice. She didn't know whether she wanted to be an account executive or a sexy tv model. She was torn between the two worlds. So the head of the dept asked her " Well, where do you see yourself in 5 years?" And Glerys answered "I see myself as a merenguera.". "Well", he said, "maybe advertising is not the way to go for you."
And the rest is history,of sorts.

Nunca en mi vida había visto a una "intern" así, vestía como una "drag queen". Recuerdo que mi oficina estaba cerca de donde ella se sentaba, y todas las mañanas todos los hombres de la agencia desfilaban por allí para verla.
si es buena en eso pues al menos tiene something to fall back on cuando ya el cuerpo no sea el mismo. a la taina ya mismo la sacan de ahi, la estan dejando por lo que es, para que no le digan cruel al gangster al sacarla tan rapido despues de que le dio aquello. pero la cosa es, porque no le decian nada a glerys acerca de la vestimenta?? haha si llega a ser a una fea rapidito le llaman la atencion.
