I thought this would be an interesting thread. One of my clients had a teenage girl working for them. She informed everyone one day that she was heading to Milan as a model.

Model? She had the body of a tall 12-year-old boy. Her face was cute but not what I saw on covers of Elle and Vogue. I'd say that her body type was 1 in a one million women. Needless to say, she was going to the big time because she was highly sought after.

This proves once again that the media creates illusions.

I do not understand the appeal of the anorexic look.

There could be an argument made that Milla Jovovich is more of an actress. She started out as a model but she has starred in The Messenger, The 5th Element, and both Resident Evil movies, and will be in the 3rd one which doesn't have a release date yet. She has a new movie coming out, can't remember the name of it, saw the trailer last weekend.
As of right now she's as much of a model as Sarah Michelle Gellar.
