Skadden Blog's 'Hot Associate' Contest Is Put on Ice

Unauthorized blog contest to pick Skadden's 'hottest female associate' provokes chilly response from law firm brass Who's the hottest young woman lawyer at Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom? Last week that question sent the New York firm into a bit of a tizzy. On Feb. 4, Skadden Insider, a blog written by two anonymous firm employees and dedicated, unofficially, to all things Skadden, announced the winner of its weeklong poll to decide the firm's "Hottest Female Associate." The contest was hardly Skadden Gone Wild -- most of the photos of the eight contestants were relatively innocuous head shots. The winner, a blond litigator, drew 400 votes from Skadden cognoscenti.
