How tough it is to be a model?

In case you want to be a model however you don’t think you got what it takes because you are too healthy, too old, too ugly, short and so on. Usually most people think of models they think of Kate Moss, Naomi Cambell, Carmen Kass, Heidi Klum, Elle McPherson and other famous male models and female models. There are also other famous models such as Pamela Anderson Isabeli Fontana, Natalia Vodianova, the list goes on and on. It is a fact that these are all famous and beautiful women and obviously their looks played a crucial role in the work they do and the fame they achieved. If these female models didn't look them way they do would they have become so famous and such big earners. You are probably wondering how you could possibly make a living as a model, male model or female model, if you don't have a great body and drop dead gorgeous looks. Well the simple fact is that there is much more to modeling than just cat walk, glamour or fashion.

So many times you see advertisements on TV for hair products, teeth, nails, hands, eyes and so on. These all had to have models to promote the product. You may not be 6ft 2in tall and you do not have the best shaped face but you have the most amazing hair or maybe your teeth are dead straight and white as snow well then this is what you use to make a good lifestyle. One of the most famous drag queen in England called Lily Savage and the man behind her, Paul O'Grady actually got the job of promoting Stockings for Pretty Polly. Now a days this is someone everyone knows is a man yet he was able to get the contract because of his legs.

Everyone under the sun has the opportunity to become a model, all you need is to think outside the box and think about what attributes you have that could be used. How about feet, hands, bum, the list goes on and on so there is a market. Now when you have decided you have the best arms and nails around and feel you could get some work using them for modeling is from where to begin, the very first part is to find an agency and this can be tricky as there are a lot of aspiring models out there ready to scam you. Once you find a good modeling agency they will be able to provide you with some photographers to get your portfolio together, again you need to be careful as you could easily get ripped off here also. There is a lot involved and no one said it would be easy, nothing worth having is, but with the right help you can make a good living as a model.
