An interesting observation about models

juliaallison:

These models are, by and large, some of the sweetest girls you’ll ever meet. In fact, I would even go so far as to say that - on average - they’re nicer than other women! (huh?!)

Only ONE has ever been rude to me, and you would know her name, so perhaps it’s a “celeb” thing more than a “model” thing.

Why do you think that is?

I hate to disagree but…::

Sorry Jules, I’m going to disagree with you here. Models are just as much a mixed bag as most girls. I’ve spent more time than I would ever care to admit interviewing and chatting with models. Some are pleasant, some are more than friendly, and some are just down right bitchy. Although if other people were painting my face and pulling my hair all day, I might be rude too. Models are people. Period. Everyone has a good day and a bad one. But just because they’re beautiful doesn’t mean they should get extra credit for being nice.

It's these posts that are starting to pop up, where Mary is being much less passive aggressive in her approach, that are making me shift my "obnoxiousness" to Julia. Mary expressed her point as though English is her second language, but she did make a good call on Julia's in your face shallowness in judgment.

  1. And of course the models are going to be polite, anyway. They're WORKING. They're AT THEIR JOBS. They HAVE to be professional and polite because they are being paid to do it.

    You think when you go into Victoria's Secret or Bergdorf's and the salespeople are nice to you and compliment you it's because they're just generally great wonderful people who work there? No. It's a requirement of a job that people not act like douchebags.

    Julia should take a tip from the models when she's working, now that I think of it.
