Ive watched SO many modeling shows on tv, well, like "Americas Next Top Model" and "8th & Ocean". I have always wanted to b in the modeling industry. But im not sure how i can get like very skinny, like all the models in Americas Next Top Model.
Im about 5'8''-5'9''
I weigh about 128-130lbs

thats not a link, thats what its saved under in ur computer. It is useless to other people. Ur going to have to put it on photobucket or something and get a url for it. Or click Edit and near the bottom click manage attachements--->browse and add ur picture so we can see it.

Do you have a picture of you standing up? That would be most helpful. From what I can see, you're pretty...you'll never make it as a high fashion model but there are other things you can do.

You are really pretty. If you want to be as fit as the models on 8th & Ocean I suppose you could just work out alot. Idk.. I would love to be a model but I'm too short (5'1")

I dont think you have the right look to be a model at all. You're not unique enough to be a supermodel, and not pretty enough to be a fashion model. The only kind of modelling you could do is glamour modelling, but hopefully you won't want to do that! To make it really big, you need to be taller, a lot thinner, more unique and really stand out.

honestly, I think you need to lose a lot of weight, you have a chuby face. You will never be able to be a supermodel, since your face isn't really that unique. Don't get me wrong, you're pretty, but more like average girl pretty, not model pretty. I also want to be a model, I'm 13 (I know it syas I'm 15) and I'm about 5'5, I weigh 100 lbs and I'm a size 0. I'm not proud of the means I go to to get skinny, but I have to do what I have to do. Agents don't care how yuo get skinny, they care if you are skinny. That's the truth, and it's horrible and wrong, but it's reality. But I wouldn't worry about that if I were you; you're face already garantees you won't be a model, so you can feel free to live the rest of your life fat and happy, and leave the suffering to the pretty girls=)).

Haha, uh. A GOOD agent cares how you're losing weight. I have friends who are high-fashion models and their agents are good people, and don't promote eating disorders or whatever it is yours do.

As a former pro photographer and someone who is planning to go back to it eventually. I think that you are pretty but, not quite right for modeling.

Practicing? Sounds like a modeling school "model". 1st piece of advice to potential models, modeling schools are ALWAYS a rip off.

Mine doesn't and neither do all the girl's i've met in the industry. Modeling is a world of glamour, but it also has a very dark side. It's about outting on a face of perfection, striking a pose as if you're the most confident person in the world, but the reality is full of insecurity, eating disorders and misery. Kinda like selling your soul to the devil=).

Yeah, obviously, but a true agent would be pretty concerned if one of her models had an extremely serious problem. I'm sure you think you know what you're talking about, as you model, but as someone who is in contact with alot of high-profile models, other celebrities, and agents, I can assure you that you're at least partially wrong.
I know the agents of Carol Trentini, Cintia Dicker, and Heather Marks. You may have heard of them. And their agents are really cool, really professional people, who take care of them.
