Kaitlyn Lauretta
Home: Floral Park Age: 18 Height: 5’8 Weight: 118 Stats: 34-26-33 “Anything that would cause a commotion is something I would wear,” said 18-year-old Kaitlyn Lauretta of Floral Park, whose dad is a police officer on Long Island. “I like modeling anything, from clothes, to lingerie to swimsuits. And when I’m going out, I like to wear anything that gets someone’s attention.” To get “someone’s attention,” she wears, “stilettos heels, a tight tank top, a half shirt or corset with some kind of skirt.” The result, she said, is “funky, fresh that nobody will have.” Kaitlyn’s modeling career began when she was contacted by Photos by Nick, whose head photographer knew her father from the police force. From there she caught the attention of several major fashion leaders and is reportedly on the verge of announcing some major upcoming projects. Since the deals haven’t been signed, Kaitlyn and her agent are mum on the details, but she is spilling the beans on her fashion secret. Along with the shops on Jamaica Avenue and in the new Queens Center Mall, Lauretta has one special place she goes to for fashion: her grandmother. “She’s 10 pounds heavier than me, so I let her be my personal shopper. She tries it on and if it fits, she buys it for me,” said Lauretta, who admitted “I don’t like to shop very much, as weird as that sounds.” This fashion hottie says she is in good hands with grandma. “She has the best fashion sense of any 63-year-old I’ve ever seen.” |

| Who’s Behind J-Lo’s Groove?
Cory Rooney, a native of Jamaica, just finished working with Jennifer Lopez on her new dual disc CD, “Rebirth,” which was scheduled to be released by Sony Music March 1.
As a writer, producer and executive, Rooney has become one of the top success stories in the music business, penning tunes for such stars as Mary J. Blige, Allure, Mariah Carey, Marc Anthony and Destiny’s Child. Rooney worked closely with J-Lo on her debut album “On the 6,” which led to her follow up CD “J.Lo.” He also co-wrote and produced seven songs for the album including “Ain’t it Funny,” “I’m Real,” “I’m Gonna Be Alright,” and “Play.” Rooney’s career has jumped from his small beginnings at Uptown Records in the early 80s to snagging a top spot today at Sony Music thanks to Tommy Mattola. He is now Vice President of Sony Music. |

| Hilton Hang-Up
The personal life of Paris Hilton was recently invaded, as hackers tapped into her cellular phone and retrieved her phone book, e-mails and photos taken on one of the most precious and personal pieces of electronic equipment that Hilton owns and understands how to operate.
Those who have seen her attempt to milk cows and stroll through Wal-Mart on the television series The Simple Life know that she isn’t famous for her intelligence. Though she might not know where or what Queens is, other than her family might have some hotels here, her phone book listed a number of Queens celebrities that Hilton might be found paling around with. Included in her A-list of phone numbers from Queens were Adrien Brody, Russell Simmons, Donald Trump and the private line to Victoria Gotti’s Westbury mansion. |

| Miller Time
A Queens connection to the recent Super Bowl battle between the New England Patriots and the Philadelphia Eagles went overlooked. Pats’ punter Josh Miller, a native son of the Rockaways, put his foot to good use in the championship game. The frustrated Eagles offensive stayed far from his team’s end zone throughout most of the low-scoring affair.
But Miller didn’t need a Super Bowl win to secure high status in the sporting world. In 2002, while he was a member of the Pittsburgh Steelers and recovering from an injury, officials at the prestigious Jewish Hall of Fame in Commack, Long Island inducted Miller into the vaunted ranks of elite chosen athletes. So how did Miller deal with the eternal question for Jewish pros? In 2002, when Yom Kippur coincided with a Steelers game, Miller chose to play. “It’s my job,” he told reporters. His parents? “They’re not mad,” Miller said. “I really wasn’t brought up that religious.” |
