Models are so damn lucky . . .
Shit, should I say twenty-five or twenty? . . . No, too young. Maybe twenty-two. Oh hell, it’s Seventeen magazine . . . I’m eighteen today.

All right, elongate the neck, bend your arms because I see a little flab, extend your jaw, relax your lip, more hip, stronger eyes but not that strong, a little soft with the fingers, you’re losing the neck, slouch but remain on the inhale . . . just be yourself.
Honey, if only you were three inches taller and ten years younger.

Sorry, the clients decided not to go ethnic with this campaign.

The music video part is for the lounge ho number one. It pays gummy bear rate and kills your character in twelve hours.

Models are so damn lucky . . . as long as all 1,352 of them can book one of the thirty jobs available, so they can quit that waitressing gig at the age of twenty-nine and retire a millionaire, or better yet, marry one!

Do you mind taking off your top? I’m French, so tits don’t matter, baby.
