Same person?

Resolved.

Is this really the name of the fashion/runway expert? In America's Next Top Model and in the IMDb, he's credited as "J. Alexander". "Jay Alexander" seems to be a magician. - dcljr (talk) 12:40, 13 January 2006 (UTC)

• On the show he's always credited as "J. Alexander" - Jay may not even be his first name, it could be John, Jason etc. - Matthew238 02:13, 21 April 2006 (UTC)

Married with children?

Resolved. Could be true but reference would have to support this.

Yuh right. I've deleted this until someone comes up with this alleged wife & child. Gary 14:54, 16 May 2006 (UTC)

Prêt-à-Porter?

Stale.

I find no reference to J. at the Prêt-à-Porter page on IMDB, nor a mention of Prêt-à-Porter on his own IDMB page. Is a reference available describing his involvement in the film? -- Mikeblas 14:57, 25 July 2006 (UTC)

I agree. According to the IMDB, he hasn't been in ANY films -- only TV shows. I am going to edit the entry until better informmation can be presented here. --68.103.154.140 05:15, 16 October 2006 (UTC)

Sexuality/Gender?

Resolved.

J. is physically a male, but likes to be referred to as "Miss J."... i don't really know any other information about that. If anyone can get this information i think it should be added.

Yes hes a male, in the drag performance community they frequently refer to each other or assume a title as "Miss X" —Preceding unsigned comment added by MSIEntertainmentServices (talk • contribs)

Singing Career

Resolved.

This sounds like a joke to me based off his actions on the television show. I'm deleting it until someone proves it to me. Rmj12345 16:56, 10 December 2006 (UTC)

I don't get this

Resolved. Issues fixed.

When you click "edit this page" a whole additional section of information, that sounds more like gossip than fact, appears on the edit page. Anyone care to explain why that is? I don't think the information is valid anyway, since, as I said, it sounds more like gossip a girl friend of his wrote in.

Also, I corrected where J Alexander was referred to as a "she" to say "he", as it could be confusing. J is male and is not a transexual/transgendered person. Enjoying dressing in women's clothes in order to be outlandish and going by "Miss J" does not make him a woman.

Additionally, is it really correct to list J Alexander as a "model"? He's actually more a runway coach and/or TV personallity. Xprivate eyex 23:41, 3 September 2007 (UTC)

He used to be a model and still does some modeling. Benjiboi 02:12, 4 March 2008 (UTC)

Age?

Resolved. Reliable source needed.

I'm curious as to where the comment that he is 56 years old comes from. I couldn't find any information anywhere. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.199.155.89 (talk) 23:04, 28 September 2007 (UTC)

dual pronouns

Resolved. Fixed.

i noticed that for the first paragraph & and a half, J. Alexander is referred to as 'she', but for the rest of the article is referred to as 'he'... this creates at least one ambiguity ("She met her backstage at a runway show,"), and i see no reason to use the feminine pronoun as there is no reference stating that Alexander is transgendered or transexual, and the CW external link uses the masculine pronoun... i'm going to change the feminine pronouns to masculine pronouns, and see if i can rework that sentence...

Self-promoting article

Resolved.

This entry reads like a self-promotion. In fact, the article in its entirety has been copied from the tyra banks top model website. is this appropriate? It sounds highly-inflated. I can't imagine this guy ever doing runway modeling. Sounds totally fake. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.231.23.92 (talk) 23:44, 28 February 2008 (UTC)

Copyvio content is generally not useful and and such has been changed. He has done runway modeling and is a sought after expert in that field. Benjiboi 02:42, 6 March 2008 (UTC)
