The third season of The Janice Dickinson Modeling Agency debuted on Oxygen on December 4, 2007.
Episode 3.1: La Vida Janice Janice opens season 3 with a recap of some of the jobs her models have landed since the end of season 2, noting especially J. P. Calderon and Dominic Figlio's success with 2(x)ist underwear. Dominic is offered a one-year contract as "the face of 2(x)ist."
A new client, VIP Latino magazine, meets with Janice seeking Latina and Latino models for a cover shoot with Carlos Mencia. Janice, realizing that she's lacking in the Latin model department, holds an open casting call.
T. J. Wilk meets with Janice and Peter to let them know that he's leaving the agency. In part it is because his success with Janice has opened up other opportunities in modeling and acting and in part because he doesn't trust Janice's business partner Peter.
Janice decides she needs a bodyguard. She hires Sorin, a former model with the agency, to serve as her personal security.
During the Latin casting call, Janice decides to open a Latin division, specializing in what she sees as an untapped market. Among the new Latin models are CC Fontana, Alexandra Jay, Nadia Alexandria, Grasie Mercedes, Crystal Winston and Rodrigo De Carli. The clients return to see the new models and select CC, Nadia and Grasie. At the shoot, however, scheduling conflicts cause the clients to change from a cover shoot to an inside feature spread instead.
Episode 3.2: Mo' Models, Mo' Problems When Janice arrives at the VIP Latino shoot and learns that her models have lost the cover, she leaps into the shoot. She reasons that her celebrity status will land her, and thus her models, on the cover.
Stina Jeffers informs Janice that she's signed with another agency. An affronted Janice believes that she's losing models because Peter isn't managing them properly. Peter later interviews that he's made a concerted effort to stay out of confrontations with Janice because of how wearing it is on both of them.
Janice holds another open call and hires several new models. One of the new potential models, Grant Whitney Harvey, is existing model Brian Kehoe's roommate. He mentions that he already has an agent in Los Angeles and Janice rejects him. Grant is soon dropped from his other agency and Janice decides to hire him. Janice is delighted by the return of Braneka Bassett, a model she would have hired previously had she been out of high school. Braneka, now having graduated, is hired. Other new models include Payton Brady, Alexis Hutt and Erika Wilhite. Janice is concerned by the large number of scars on Alexis' body.
At a casting for Fashion L. A. magazine, Crystal Trueheart, Ligia and Nyabel are cast and Janice learns that Desirée Bick has severe anemia. Janice clashes with Traci Moslenko, who Janice believes has put on too much weight.
Episode 3.3: Zero Tolerance Crystal Trueheart returns to Los Angeles and meets Chris Jones, who is surprised to learn she is sleeping in her car. He invites her to move in with him. Later, she and Nyabel pose for the Fashion L. A. photo spread and are thrilled to finally be working together.
Dominique Sharpe, a server at California Pizza Kitchen, is spotted by Janice, who calls her in for an audition. Her walk is bad but Janice hires her.
Janice calls in the men for a casting for Go Softwear underwear. The clients hire six of her models for underwear, swimwear and athletic gear.
Open Your Eyes, a men's magazine catering to the Latino market, books CC, Nadia and Toi. Janice arrives at the shoot and is excited to learn that the models will be posing with comedian Joey Medina but is surprised that the magazine has hired a fourth model. Nadia and Toi, on her first shoot, initially struggle but eventually relax.
At the Go Softwear shoot, Janice is infuriated to learn that Kehoe has shown up for the shoot drunk. She slaps him and tells him off. Later, Chris Jones squirts Kehoe with a squirt gun, soaking the one-of-a-kind underwear that he's wearing. Janice orders them off the job, but the client later calls Kehoe back. Despite the problems Janice is pleased with the pictures.
Seeking to lower her models' inhibitions, Janice books several of them as nude life models for a senior citizen art class. Several of the models are initially uncomfortable but loosen up. Dominique, however, objects because of her Catholic upbringing and Janice interviews that Dominique may not have what it takes.
Episode 3.4: Of Models and Morals Janice compromises with Dominique, allowing her to go topless but keep her panties on. Dominique still feels uncomfortable with nudity and along with fellow agency model Michael Anderson (who had expressed issues with nudity previously) seeks out "Models4Jesus," a support group for Christian models. Several Models4Jesus representatives meet with Janice, who listens to their concerns but stands by her contention that nudity is part of modeling.
The new syndicated game show Temptation call auditions for male and female models for the show. Janice brings in The Price Is Right model Phire Dawson to teach her models classical prize modeling moves, but the Temptation producers inform the models that this isn't the sort of modeling they're looking for. After disqualifying a number of the models for having tattoos and some for being too young, the producers hire Michael Anderson and Christian Prelle for the show.
Men's underwear designer Andrew Christian is launching a new line for women and hires a number of the models, including Dominique and boyfriends Shaun McCarron and Paul Anderson. At the shoot, Dominique is confronted by her nudity issues when the client requests that she remove her top while posing in a pool. She complies and Janice interviews that Dominique has a clean slate with her.
Swimwear designer Ashley Paige hires several of the models, including Dominique and Alexis, for a new catalog. Her concept for the shoot is that the models are girls misbehaving at a slumber/beach party. At the shoot, the designer notices the scarring on Alexis' body and accuses her of being a cutter. Alexis laughingly denies it. When Janice arrives to watch the shoot, the designer asks her to don a suit and play the mother figure of the girls at the party. Janice initially refuses, saying she's not prepared to model swimwear. The designer continues to cajole her and Janice, to keep the client happy, agrees, but not before calling the client a "parrot." As Janice is posing, she becomes increasingly cranky with the client's constant direction and clashes with her repeatedly.
Episode 3.5: Model Mayhem Janice and Ashley continue to clash until Ashley realizes that she has to deal with Janice not just as a model but as the agent of the other models. With this realization the shoot goes much more smoothly. While at the shoot Janice confronts Alexis about her scarring. Alexis acknowledges that she used to be a cutter but no longer is. Janice shares about her abusive father and extracts a promise from Alexis to come to her if she feels the need to hurt herself again.
Genlux magazine wants to cast 3-4 high fashion models. The clients initially are interested in Desirée Bick, who has worked with the magazine before. However, when they discuss her later Janice badmouths her, saying she can't stand her and that she has a horrible attitude. Peter interviews about her dismay at Janice's conduct in front of the clients. The magazine selects Crystal Trueheart, Lakiska and Daria.
At the Genlux shoot, Janice has issues with all three. She interviews that Crystal has lost too much weight, berates Lakiska for failing to show emotional depth on the shoot and chides Daria for marrying her boyfriend, who doesn't support her modeling career. Crystal agrees that she's worried about her weight but Daria resents Janice's intrusion into her personal life.
Several of the models have a poker party at Chris Jones' place. The question of Kehoe's sexuality comes up again. He insists that he's straight but again several others doubt him.
Nathan returns from a European vacation and learns of the agency's new Latin division. He meets with his father, Simon Fields, who is a business partner of Jennifer Lopez. Nathan suggests that the new division would be a good fit for Lopez's new clothing line, Just Sweet. Simon agrees and Nathan sets up a meeting with some of Lopez's people. They schedule a "go-see" to view Janice's models. The Just Sweet people are impressed with the models and interview that they believe they will be able to use them in some upcoming campaigns.
Rufskin, a company specializing in denim outer- and underwear for the gay market, wants three models for a new web campaign. J. P. becomes very uncomfortable, interviewing that he's concerned that he will be typecast for gay jobs. Ultimately he is not hired, with the clients choosing Danny, Michael, Maurice and Christian instead.
At the Rufskin shoot, Janice is perturbed to find that the client is serving champagne to the models, given her own history of alcohol abuse. She confronts Maurice for pouring himself a second drink, threatening to fire him should she ever find him drinking on a set again.
Episode 3.6: Under Pressure The Rufskin shoot, by photographer Justin Monroe, progresses with the models being put in very provocative poses. Peter Hamm comments to the clients that despite the many gay models in the agency, they manages to select all straight models. Each of the models interviews about the challenges of posing with other males (Danny Nuñez especially noting his bemusement at the number of gay-themed jobs he books) but the client is very pleased with the pictures.
Nathan, having nursed a crush on Traci Moslenko for some time, finally asks her out. He's nervous about a one-on-one date, so he asks J. P. to double-date with him. Nathan sets J. P. up with recent addition Rodrigo De Carli, whom J. P. hadn't met previously. J. P. and Rodrigo make a romantic connection and agree to go out again. When Janice hears that Nathan and Traci went out, she calls them each in separately and forbids them from seeing each other.
Charles Bernard, creator of the acne treatment Sensiclear, approaches Janice looking for models with bad skin. He plans to place them on the Sensiclear regimen and select one of them to serve as the company spokesmodel in an infomercial. Janice holds an open call and also selects some of her existing models to audition. A number of auditioners, including existing model CC and potential new model Lynette Nechayeva, break down emotionally as they describe the impact of suffering from acne. CC, Lynette and several other models are chosen.
Tia Browsh, owner of the Jack Henry boutique, wants to hire three models. They will wear each of the items in her store and a Polaroid picture of them in the outfit will serve as the item's price tag. Crystal, Nyabel and Erika Wilhite book the job. At the shoot, Erika struggles and the client grows impatient with her.
Episode 3.7: Under the Knife As Erika continues to struggle, Tia advises Janice that she needs to be replaced. Ligia Rodrigues is called in. Janice advises Erika to study the other models on the shoot and interviews that she still believes in her.
Janice calls in the models to meet with Dan Mathews of People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals. She advises the models that the agency is now "fur-free" and shows them a video illustrating the treatment of animals raised for fur. In support of PETA's "I'd rather go naked than wear fur" campaign, Janice advises the models that they have the chance to participate in a naked protest march. Ligia announces that she will not participate in the march and will continue to wear fur. Several of the models harangue her for her decision but she stands by it. At the march, Brian Kehoe risks arrest by going completely naked.
