That rich guys wanna bang good looking women who spend their lives trying to look enticing?
You gotta go to a Manhattan private school to figure that out?
“It seemed likely they knew they were encouraging models into compromising, even dangerous situations. They were more careful with top-earning supermodels but it usually seemed the agency’s allegiance was to the clients, not the models whose interests they were supposed to represent.”
Supply and demand, honey. There are a million good looking women out there who would knock their grandmother out of the way for a chance to be a model. You’re replaceable, but the clients’ money is not.
Candy draws flies.
There’s always been a thin line between “modeling” & prostitution (call girl or escort services, to put it more tactfully.)
It’s not that unusual for modeling agencies to send models to “bookings” in which the model serves merely as arm candy for some rich guy at a star-studded party.
The girl hopes to boost her “modeling” career by being photographed by paparazzi & seen in the glossy magazines.
The geezer gets stud points for being photo’ed with a babe.
If they’re seen together, they must be screwing, right?
The agency gets its cut of the girl’s fee, with the tacit agreement that whatever she & Mr. Big do after the party is a separate, private transaction.
I have this theory that the whole “haute couture” scam was created by a pervert cabal to enable access to and pass around young dumb pretty meat for the string-pullers (no pun intended).
I mean, look at any “fashion” show/magazine. No one wears that outlandish crap in real life. Totally pointless. A cover.
