The dazzling Dorothy of Ozone Park is our first in a QConfidential series, the "Models of Queens."

Born in Poland, Dorothy came to Queens when she was seven.

Though she has blue eyes, her chameleon-like appearance may cause her eyes to seem green, depending on the angle and her clothes.

"My mom said it is the devil in me," Dorothy notes.

A junior at Queens College, Dorothy majors in sociology and minors in dance. For a good time, she likes to go with her Delta Phi Epsilon sorority sisters and hang out at Uno’s on Bell Blvd.

Her fast driving earned her a pledge name of ‘Checkers,’ representing the checkered flag at the end of a car race. "I get a rush," says Dorothy.

Dorothy loves to go dancing to hot spots like Crash in Astoria, and is fond of the drag shows there. She likes hanging out at the Queens Botanical Garden and the zoo.

Dorothy likes Queens because, "It’s so unique and has so many different cultures."

She considers herself a nature girl and goes upstate to get down and dirty for camping. Dorothy loves to fly and wants to become a stewardess to travel the world.

She got interested in modeling with her younger sister. "My sister and I started taking pictures of ourselves," she said. They asked their apartment building super to let them into vacant apartments to use the blank, white walls for fashion shoots.

"I’m really short, and I can’t get a job on the runway" she said, "and for the time being, modeling is a hobby, but it's not easy." One time she was all fluffed up for a 1950s pinup photo shoot and stayed in the same position for hours. For another shoot, she remembers standing on a broken cop car in a junkyard.

Dorothy has also done photo shoots where she had vanilla and chocolate frosting glazing her body – topped with sprinkles.

She thinks the body is a beautiful thing, "I’ve always been open" said Dorothy, who walks around her apartment stark naked and sometimes goes topless at the beach.

Her role model is the sensuous 1999 Playmate of the Year, Heather Kozar.

Okay, guys: Dorothy is single and likes it that way, because a boyfriend might hold her down. But she is looking for, "A guy who likes to try many things – travel, adventure – with sense of humor," she said. "A little taller than me."

"I like to try out many things to keep me going."

Anyone looking for this Queens beauty can find her on the web at www.UModels.com.

Rags To Riches

Lookout Gracie Mansion, Supersonic has her eyes on you. The famous hat designer who set the fashion world on its head with her models clothed in hats only shows, now wants to go toe-to-toe with the other mayoral wannabes. Ivy Supersonic is starting her own political party, "The Supersonic Truth Party."

Ivy Supersonic

"Bloomberg’s billions is no match for Supersonic," said Ivy. I decided to print up billion dollar bills with my face on it. Now we’re equal."

Look out Ferrer, Green, Hevesi, and Vallone; Ivy could make you itch.

"I may not have all the answers," she said, "no one does, but at least the people should know that Supersonic will give them the truth. The billion dollar bills are stamped, ‘In Supersonic We Trust.’ I believe in equality. Passing out the bills was to symbolize the equality among us."

Hats off to Ivy!

Here's To You, Miss Robinson

The Neilson Ratings have been much kinder to NBC’s new entry into the prime time sweepstakes, "The Missing Link," than media critics have been towards its host, Anne Robinson.

Scores of people have re-adjusted their TV habits to fit the "Queen of Mean" into their schedule. Millions are turning out to watch what Miss Robinson has to say.

 

Washington Post writer Lisa de Moraes has a few choice words to say about the dour Robinson. In a recent article, de Moraes referred to Robinson as "the love child of Mary Poppins and Pol Pot."

Good Bye.

Hamilliation At The News

Acclaimed journalist and author Pete Hamill has returned to the Daily News. At the bequest of his old time colleague, drinking partner, and friend Ed Kostner, the current editor of Mort Zuckerman's News, Hamill was once again lured away from Mexico, and persuaded to return to New York’s cutthroat tabloid world. Each Monday, Hamill will discuss favorite topics of his such as the beauty of New York immigrant melting pot, "the people that he’s met at Elaine’s" and the Brooklyn Dodgers. Asked by QConfidential "why on Earth would he return to the grind of the tabloids?" Hamill replied, " It’s a habit. It’s a habit that I can’t kick, God help me."

McNuggets McMath?

According to a McDonald’s employee training coordinator, teaching of the 3 R’s is not included in the program. Maybe they should take a second look.

One hungry QConfer who had a yen for chicken McNuggets, went to a local McDonald’s and ordered a half dozen. The teenager at the counter said, "We don’t have half dozen nuggets."

Confused, QConf pointed to the menu which indicated that nuggets came in orders of six, nine, or twelve.

"That’s what we have," was the reply.

We were beginning to see the light. "So, I can’t order a half dozen nuggets, but I can order six?"

The math whiz confirmed the conclusion.

Hungrier yet and numbed by the experience, QConf conceded, "Whatever, I’ll take six."

Oops!

It’s a sign that spelling doesn’t count when it comes to Queens street signs. This sign is in front of the Jamaica YMCA at Parsons Boulevard designating 90th Avenue as "Rufas King Av." Too bad King’s first name was spelled incorrectly. Rufus King was one of New York’s first U.S. Senators and from 1784-1787, was a member of the Continental Congress. His home in Jamaica has been preserved as a museum in Rufus King Park.

 

Confidentially New York . . .
