[quote=Anonymous]I'm from the LA area and indeed, there are a ton of people not in the biz. However, I do think it's a strong presence and sets a tone for things. My sister, visiting me in DC, remarked upon how the people in DC aren't very physically attractive. Physical attractiveness, being fit, appearance overall is very important in LA. My friends who went to Berkeley would tell me how students would roll out of bed and go to class. When I was at UCLA, I remember being surprised by how many students had make-up on (though from what I hear, it can be even worse in the South). The other thing I find strange about LA (after living on the East Coast for so long now) is how everyone hugs each other hello/good-bye, even the second or first time they've met. The Hollywood influence can also be felt in the very yoga/hipster/organic food culture. Just a few initial thoughts...[/quote]
