Ran into Jay Manuel from ANTM at work! First NYC celeb sighting in a while.

Fun Fact! Before entering the fashion industry, Manuel was a pre-med student and also studied opera, even working for the Metropolitan Opera at one point. Eventually, he became a makeup artist, working for clients such as Tyra Banks and Iman.

First official celebrity #sighting since moving to NYC: just saw Mr. Jay from #antm. No sign of Tyra though
