"Power" by Kanye West played over the loud speaker in the studio as models scrambled to finish getting ready to walk in Kanye's fashion show, which was kicking off 2018 fashion week. Demi was surprisingly calm as Cesar continued to take the extensions out of her hair so that she could wear her natural hair that brushed a little past her shoulders. She was wearing it all sleeked back with a slight wave to it while everyone else was wearing various updos. She was supposed to stand out a bit since according to Kanye, she was an important part of the show. She didn't really know what that meant but she just went with it. This was her first time walking in Fashion Week and Kanye had been doing this way longer than her. He clearly knew what he was doing.
"Special delivery!" Kelsey squealed as she came running into the room with a huge vase of pink and white roses. Demi grinned as Kelsey set the vase down on the counter – much to Cesar's annoyance – and then pulled the card out for Demi to read.
"Ma cherie, I would wish you luck on your very first show but you don't need it. Can't wait to see you light up the runway. Je t'aime, Cristo," Demi read as Kelsey dreamily sighed.
"Are you sure that Cristo's an only child?" Kelsey questioned as she bit down on her lap, causing Demi to giggle as she nodded her head. "And he really can't make it today?"
"No, he has obligations in Paris and I told him to take care of those and not worry about today. It's no big deal. I mean, I kind of got this job because of nepotism anyway so..." Demi trailed off as Kelsey lightly slapped her shoulder.
"Pretty sure you got this job because you're Demi fucking Lovato and you're amazing." She could always count on Kelsey to hype her up. The song changed to "Jesus Walks" as Kanye began to walk around the room for final checkups.
"Demi, here's your outfit. If you need help, ask for Masha and nobody else," Kanye instructed, passing the garment bag to Kelsey before looking over her hair and makeup. "You look great, see you out there." He flashed her what looked like a semblance of a smile and then he was off to the next model. Kelsey unzipped the bag and the first thing she saw was a potent red sweater with rips in it. Everyone else was wearing various nudes and pastels so she was a little confused but she just went with it.
The setup for Kanye's Yeezy Season Six show was similar to his set ups from previous years. Models walking out in lines then staying up to create some elaborate formation while up close shots of them showed on giant screens hanging above the runway. Demi was literally the last one to walk out before Kanye came out and her palms wouldn't stop sweating. Kelsey had to keep wiping her hands with cooling baby wipes in an attempt to calm her down. She was trying not to tug at her clothes, which is what she usually did when she was nervous, but as more and more models walked out and her time was approaching, she was literally starting to hyperventilate.
