Is the Model World going to far?

Not long a go I saw a documentation about finding new model girls in Russia.

What I saw was kind of strange and on the other side a thing I no longer wonder about.

Let's look around, doesn't the models become younger and younger? Thinner and thinner?

How can this be nice? How can this be happen?

We see, still, see thin models on the catwalk, after all the talking about that there should be a change, but why is the change not really comin'?

Well first you must know it is more easy to sew a dress for a model without curves and then the Designers had to create 4 Seasons now... two more than in the past. So not much time to do and it should be sheep to made, but still expensive to sell.

With all the plastic surgeries it is not so hard to show some breast which seems to be a curvy girl must have but also the thin... sometimes... The most are flat, but also very young.. so not really finished in their physical development.

The dream of being rich, or being a super model still is alive, but the truth is-it's a lot of work, not that much money and a short time to have a carrier like this.

And then there are those who started so young, even not knowing them self.

So young, that they are blinded by the light of money, not lookin' what the contract is or what they must offer.

Back to the documentation. The Model -Scout was a woman who once was a young girl, looking for a job as a model, because the dream of coming out of a little village, poor and no hope of a rich live, but knowing out there is so much to buy, to see, to marry...etc.

This girl have had a little success and then changed to be a scout- decided to be free, her own master and live in her own time. So far this sounds god and she actually has a lot of money to live in a house in the USA.

The girls who tries to be the same like her years later don't know that, they all think:" I wanna be a star, a big model.. wanna be rich". So they go to these scouts, who travel every year for new and young girls and spending all the money they have to reach them, to get to be a superstar.

If the lucky once got a job in Asia, they gonna move from home, alone, flying the first time- and yet alone and arriving a country they never where before, which language they can't speak and NO ONE is waiting for them! Alone and with the first frustration they try to find the place to stay... in China or Japan 'cos the girls never work in Russia. What a start into the live of adults, not even being 14 years old. The most girls are actually only 13 or have had the 14. birthday.

But all girls must say when they go to a casting that they are 15 or 16 years old...it's because under the age of 15 they are officially not allowed to work, but we know the model business is all but true...it's a big lie. Why do they want the models so young? First because of the contracts... this is really a shame for all those people who work with the girls there and here- just to remind you all the "next big super model shows" have contracts with a lot of rules which are against the law. Anyway...

They want the girls young because of the sexuality. A virgin must it be, to sell Sex. And because the girls can have children more and more earlier, the models have to be younger then ever... and then they are thin and easy to lie too.... You know, the contracts guarantee an income of 8000 Dollar a year... which is very much for the girls. But many times they get cheated... 'cos they can make pics from them and sell them without telling the girls, and so they think.. bad luck got no job.... and then the contracts can change in every way so they can send the girls back and tell them they had to pay 2000 Dollar when they home to the agency. The parents seems never to read the contracts and most time they are not able to read them so they believe what those scouts tell them... in lovely words and so did the women too.

She seems not too get it or seems to hide it from herself, that the girls are lost, need help and really a good advise, but it's her money and so she is going on telling like this is something which not exist... but then she says:"oh sometimes the girls work as Escorts or hookers, but that is not her responsible...". She is talkin' with the girls as they where happy and all is going fine.. she should know better, 'cos she told the same story about her being a young girl without any help in a foreign world.

But back to our own homes.... The press has already written about the Shows "Next Super Model" and the contracts, but the success is going on and the parents are signing the contracts without askin' or even reading it through. Seems that the warnin' is never going to those who should know about it.

Also all the talkin' of the computer work on the pics... the girls never look like this. Thin yes, but never so lovely... so much make over... no wonder that the boys and girls today have a badder a lower self-confidence than the generation before them. Seems that they are only allowed to be thin as able or they get thick.

Isn't this scary?

Last year I saw a promotional poster of a big store where the models where so thin, that even the make over did not make them more than "a hungry something" and this is what they tell the kids is beauty...!

Should we be lucky that sport is becoming more important again? That the schools are starting to think about the right food?

Yes I am but also I think we should talk about that with our children more and earlier in their age. And yes the Stars should talk more and more often about the truth of makin' over.

But will a money horny Heidi Klum do this. A women who lies in her Show about the truth of the Model World even knowing that non of her girls will be a super model, not if they stay in her world and the contracts they have signed?

So- is the Model World - the business with girls gone too far? Yes far to long did it went and what can we do? How to stop it, when even press warnin' does not help? Is it enough to talk in schools and at home about this crazy world? I hope so.. I hope this will be more a talkin' and a beginning of real changing... but maybe also to tell the designers to change the use of model type?!.

Well on Facebook many have started to post pics which shows thin visus "naturally" women and hopefully men too in the future.. (cos I never saw so much thin boys walkin' around...) and those pics always says no to thin, or super thin or question the reality we seem to have...

So this was my blog for today... hungry? Yeah me too... :-)
