| In my opinion, Kate Upton is one of the most beautiful models out there today. She's GORGEOUS, REAL and LOVES HERSELF (in a not so conceited way). While scrolling through Facebook I saw that there was an interview between her and Cosmo and I found it truly inspiring. I have worked for a model/talent agency in the past and was a booker. Unfortunately I cannot say she is completely wrong on agencies and bookers (Although I would NEVER tell someone they are too "fat.") While working for the Agency I worked for the Agent, herself, was incredibly judgmental. While she was judgmental to the models and talent, it made me self conscious about myself. I would say to myself, "If she is so critical about this absolutely gorgeous person, what does she think about me?" Although Agents told Kate that she has to lose five more pounds she didn't follow those instructions or demands and still would get hired and is one of the most talked about models out there today. Curves are what's loved. Not, I can see your bones skinny. From working at an agency I would see first hand how much a model would get paid and believe it or not the runway models made a significant amount LESS than a catalogue model, such as Kate Upton (of course this depends on the designer your'e working for, and many other factors). The Fact that Kate says, "But I couldn't give a crap. I still don't." Is EXTREMELY inspiring to me.. Who cares what other people think!! YOU have to love YOU and that's all that matters. If you're a model and a client doesn't hire you because of your curves… who cares… someone else will! THANK YOU Kate Upton for being such an incredible, inspiring woman! Other models, and people in general should take in your beauty and way of thinking. |
