In addition to her online presence, Mimi has the outgoing personality and eccentric style to inspire and motivate her followers, which makes her a perfect fit as the MTV Style ambassador. Over the coming months, Mimi will be the guest editor, posting regularly on the MTV Style blog, filming exclusive video content, as well as attending and covering all the latest fashion and music events.
MTV VJ and model, Kate Peck, will be the resident fashionista on MTV Style.
