I'm really curious to see how this goes for her. Obviously, KK hasn't been satisfied with the work she's been getting over the past couple of years. I wish she had signed on with DNA instead, but on the other hand - she's really the only BIG name supermodel on Wilhelmina's current roster, so maybe they'll work super hard for her. 

Crossing my fingers this is a smart decision. I'd love to see KK make a comeback!
