Regarding the Jasmine - Asher shoot

Well, somewhat surprisingly, Jasmine says she does not want to work with Asher. She has in the past in a group setting, but times have changed. She has a fairly new boyfriend who is not so on board with her doing this kind of work as Rick was, so that may be the cause. Anyway, I cannot proceed with this project as planned.
There are two options if we want to salvage the idea. The first is for me to play the role of the bad guy. The second is to substitute another model. I would personally favour the second option, but then it's a case of who should it be? In terms of personalities, I would prefer it to be someone like Kate Austen. However, I shall have to discuss this with the interested parties.
Update when available.

Really gutting news but we have to respect Jasmine's wishes. I personally feel you should carry on as normal with her yourself if you opt for another model this would only prolong another Jasmine video. I just hope she doesn't let her new boyfriend stand in the way of what she obviously enjoys doing. Could you bring a new Jasmine video forward end of next week or something and still schedule Asher with another model on the shoot that was intended for Jasmine.

It's really a worrying time if you enjoy Jasmine's work here.

I am not filming at all this month, so there won't be anything new from her until November. As to whether she will end up quitting, I can't say. She seems keen to carry on working with me, but then again, it has been 15 years with her. Life changes.

We will just have to go with kid gloves with her at the moment. If she wants to carry on i expect she will contact you but your right maybe it is best not to try and push her see what direction she goes in. I am sure you will keep us all updated once you have something positive from her.

She is willing to go on working at the moment. I just don't know how things will evolve in her new relationship in the future. Rick was very much into it and had fun, whereas this guy doesn't understand why she does it at all. That attitude tends not to bode well.

I perfectly understand and agree with you if Jasmine's keen to continue i couldn't see her let that stand in her way she always looked the domineering one with Rick.

A shame this hasn't worked out with Jasmine, but it's still a good idea, IMO.
Maybe another model could have a day with Asher on the B-in-B estate - what about Rachel or Alba?
Though I guess we might have a bit of a wait...

Quite right Mr North, can’t have the tail wagging the dog.
Stand your ground!
