Meet Ann Shoket. She's Atoosa's replacement at Seventeen magazine, and she's doing her best to win over the support of the tween population. And we think she's already well on her way, as evidenced by her cleverly orchestrated letter from the editor.
Indeed, in her inaugural introduction, Shoket compares starting out at Seventeen to her very first day at a new high school (which, by the way, is exactly like a cushy and extremely lucrative editor in chief gig!)

Eventually, however, Ann figured it all out. It was her frizzy hair that was holding her back! So, natch, she got her hair straightened, started hanging out with the Cool Girls and before she knew it, was heading up Seventeen! Now, if only a certain frizzy-haired former editor had done the same, she might still be partying with the media elite instead of holed up in her messy apartment, blogging about her traumatized youth and preparing to unveil her psychotic psychedelic new look…
