Born in Broomall, Pennsylvania, Bonaduce is the son of veteran TV writer/producer Joseph Bonaduce (The Dick Van Dyke Show, Mayberry RFD, One Day At A Time, Good Times,The Waltons).
Bonaduce became famous as a child actor of the 1970s on the The Partridge Family. Bonaduce co-starred as Danny Partridge, the wisecracking, redheaded middle son of the singing pop band (headed by Shirley Jones). He and Shirley Jones were the only Partridge cast members whose actual names were also that of the character he/she portrayed on screen. Danny was the fictional pop group’s bass guitar player.
Bonaduce was part of The Adam Carolla Show in 2007. In 2008 he was given a daily one-hour solo spot known as Broadcasting Bonaduce, which was broadcast locally on the L.A.-based KLSX station. In February 2009, it was announced that the station had changed its format from talk to Top 40, and the removal of Broadcasting Bonaduce from the KLSX schedule was confirmed. On November 10, 2008, Bonaduce began hosting the morning drive time on WYSP in Philadelphia, where he remains today.
Alycia Kaback and everyone at VIP Talent Connect is really excited about the possibility of having Danny at our next event!

Angelea was born and raised in Buffalo, NY. She applied to Cycle 12 but failed to make in into the house when she butted heads with Sandra Nyanchoka. On Cycle 12 there was more info about her life—it was revealed she had a daughter, who eventually died and she also talked about how she slept in the Port Authority bathroom stall to make her call back for the show.
After completing anger management she was brought back in Cycle 14. The other girls gossiped about her and tried to start problems as Angelea brought in the infamous “Bitch Please Look” against Brenda and argumed with Alasia. Despite the controversy she was a strong competitor from the start and impresseding the judges with her ability to look soft in all her photos, even though she comes off tough during panel. Her overall performance was incredibly strong; however, she was eliminated in episode 10 in a double elimination with Alexandra Underwood. Angelea is now signed and working under Colby Models.

Alycia Kaback's Speakers' Abby Ellin and Judith R. King with Alycia
The release of Beyonce’s “Run the World (Girls)” this April seemed to be a felicitous occurrence that conceivably set the tone for the summer’s activities; imagine my surprise when I was invited to cover The 1st Annual NYC Women’s Empowerment Summit, set to take place in the summer, a month later. The brainchild of
Alycia Kaback, a powerhouse and owner of six businesses including Kaback Models and VIP Talent Connect, the NYC Women’s Empowerment Summit is a comprehensive one-day event aimed at creating networking opportunities and bringing awareness to causes that are imperative to women. Intimate, exclusive and extremely affordable, the summit was capped at 100 attendees and the proceeds from the $45.00 ticket price went to Make a Wish Foundation.
Summer weekends in Manhattan generally consist of trips to the Hampton’s for NYC’s social elite and Coney Island and Rockaway Beach for everyone else. The humidity hit-parade smacks us with sweltering temperatures and tourists are allowed to take possession of the city. Saturday is generally the day of the week to kick back, but on July 16 NYC was all about business. As I walked to Bennett Media Studios, located on 723 Washington Street, I had no idea what to expect. At the most I thought I would hand out a few business cards and gain more awareness for F.A.M.E NYC. I had no suspicion of the reward that was waiting beyond the doors of this building.

July 25th 2011
This week at VIP Talent Connect & Alycia Kaback we answer the question how do I become a talent scout? All the major agencies from Ford Model Management and Elite find new talent by hiring talent scouts. Talent Scouts work in New York, Miami, London all over the world. In the music business, the talent scout is part of the Artists and Repertoire division of the record label. Their job is to find new talent and bring them to the company. Get started by scouting out talent where you are and perhaps even forwarding that information to a targeted person within an A & R department of a label. Make sure you have an agreement with the talent so that you’re not cut out completely. In this business it’s definitely who you know that matters.
What I do in my job as a Model Scout is look for potential model talent. Some models are Runway Models and need to be tall & thin, but most are regular sized people like you & me who have attractive features and are usually height/weight proportionate. Print models can be any shape & size depending on which catalogues are looking for talent. Promotional models usually appear at events and do public appearances.
What I like most about my job is the look on someone’s face when I ask, “Have you ever considered Modeling?” Most women & men never think their dreams could be realized in a few, short moments. I love to help people get where they want to be and to keep them motivated along the path of their dreams!
Now, I want to say that Modeling is a challenging career that is NOT like the movies and NOT just hanging around wearing nice clothes. It takes dedication and responsibility to be in a high pressure career such as Modeling.
I love my job and wouldn’t trade it for anything! From VIP Talent Connect and Alycia Kaback, we hope this answers your question.
