They called twice today. The first time, I answered, said hello four times, nobody responded. The next time, in broken english asked for the parents of Alicia (my daughter's name is similar to Alicia, but that isn't her name) When I asked where they got our number, the woman hung up.
I was on my way out of Six Flags when I spotted a man at a table laced with model agency "decor". He asked if I would like to put my son in modeling. I said sure, filled out a little card and the called me the next business day. I agreed to bring him in for a "pre-screening". I was told he was a "must-have". The person interviewing us was an intimidating model with pictures of her on the catwalk, in mag ads and in paris, all over her office. She showed us how cute the kids were made to look and that every child gets a card with 4 pics on it showing their talents to perspective clients. Then she tells me that the cards are mandatory if I want my child to be a model that they cost $1,198. The discounted fee of course. When I told her I couldn't pay, she whipped into actress mode and said that I MUST, as a parent, fulfill my duties and get him into modeling. Long story short, we had to just get up and walk out because she kept talking and didn't intend on ending the conversation!
