A fish out of water story if there ever was one, Deanna Prall, hailing originally from the wilds of eastern Canada, determined at the age of 22 years of age to shake Toronto the Good (Land of the Stiffs) by her sheer 'blonde ambition'. Going from a total unknown, new-girl-in-town with barely the clothes on her back as her sole possessions, and with only a couple of dollars in her pocket, Deanna Prall got herself noticed by local media and became a Toronto Sun Sunshine in Nov 2007! She has grabbed the insular, sometimes hermetically sealed arts community here by their sturm und drang and in so doing has captured and earned the respect of not only myself, but other Toronto literary luminaries. During a brief break after her poetry reading last Sunday night @ Mitzi's Sister bar on Queen St West in our fair city, I had the opportunity to interview this interesting and determined woman for mmm mag. Here is how she describes her meteoric rise to fame in the glittery partylights of downtown Toronto. She admits to being naive when she arrived but quickly developed a tough skin and a canny sense of who-was-who and what-was-up pretty fast! Deanna mentioned that as a neophyte model for a few photographers in town, she got the sexual come ons and expected pressure about money owed and the daily run-arounds that is the curse of many attractive fame seekers in the entertainment industry...an old but recurring story. She admitted to me that a sizeable minority of photographers plainly offered her licentious quid pro quo regarding a photo shoot with them but thankfully she said that most of the Toronto photographers she worked with were fair and professional in their dealings with her. Curious, I asked Miss Prall how it came about that the Toronto Sun Newspaper discovered her? She shrugged nonchalantly, said it was no big deal but that the way it went down was, a reporter had seen one of her tagged photos on a friend's Facebook page and consequently asked her to drop by the Sun to audition, so to speak. Continuing with her story she said that when she arrived at the location specifed there were already approximately 8 to 10 other ladies present and that eventually she and 2 other girls were chosen. Her Toronto Sun Sunshine Girl Launch Night was held last December at the prestigious 'C Lounge' nightclub in the entertainment district of Toronto and I was fortunate to be in attendance that evening, took photos and enjoyed watching Deanna sign autographs etc. Look for Deanna Prall as Sunshine Girl in this March 2008 issue of the Toronto Sun! Has all this limelight gone to her head, you ask? "It's nice but not a big deal getting this (the Toronto Sun pic),"she said. "I've been in constant demand as far as modelling goes this last year" she tells me and is thankful for the jobs. Considering the hectic pace set by her poetry readings, modelling and socializing, Miss Prall is refreshingly straightforward about this new world she's parachuted into. During our talk she did not come off as pretentitious or conceited. She is a girly girl to be sure but has a head on her shoulders with the smarts to go with. Leafing through her poetry book entitled 'Reborn: Dead Inside' one notices that despite her streetwise, savvy exterior, Deanna has a softer, psychically-exploratory, cerebral side to her personality that fascinates by it's co-existence inside such a quixotic yet practical nature.
