HW#18 You don't really want to be a model, do you??

I was looking at all the blogs that I am watching, and there were a few blog entries that disturbed me, but there was one article that really disturbed me. That was the article from Jezebel, http://jezebel.com/gossip/business-models/forbes-models-are-starving-financially-fucked--computer-analyzed-308222.php is the article. It's about the way models really live, they don't make a lot of money, they are told if they look good by a computer, and they can't ever eat anything that they want. "Stop eating. Grow. Be at least five foot nine, weighing 110 to 120 Ibs. This would give you a body-mass index of about 16 to 18. "Models starve themselves, and we tell them to," says Richard Habberley, a top agent with Elite, which reps Victoria's Secret hottie Alessandra Ambrosio and Maybelline face Jessica White." Why would you let someone tell you to stop eating? If they don't think your pretty enough, get a new job. I was completely disturbed that an agent would ever tell their models to stop eating all together, hello you need to eat to live.
I personally don't understand the point of modeling especially if you are "modeling" people who are not the average size of a real person. Seriously there are only a few people out there who really look like that, and chances are if they look like that its because they are a model or are trying to be one.
Seriously if you are hungry, please eat something.
