Jealousy Between Models


Zoey Masters




MODEL TALK...

Is it hard for models to be friends? Contrary to most peoples ideas about models Savanna and I jelled right away. This is not to say that it doesn't get nasty out there in the fashion field. There have been tense moments on photo shoots. I remember one time when another model gave me a glaring stare the minute I stepped on the set. I could feel her resentment. I tried to put her at ease but she continued to show a lot of attitude. The funny thing is that when the catalog came out from the shoot we looked like the closest of friends. You can usually sense when there is tension


The look of jealousy
right from the start. Some models are all about competition, but others want to enjoy their job. There is a skill to modeling that serious models take great pride in. Those top in the field spend so much time on the road that modeling becomes their family, so making friends and being a friend is important. The jealousy and competitive models are generally known, and even though they will get jobs because of their beauty they are kept at arms length by agencies and production crews. It always goes better the even-tempered models. ~Zoey

I asked Savanna how she deals with Jealousy in modeling situations...

(Model) Savanna Hoyt




 “One time at a photo shoot there was another girl I was working with that was angry because she didn't get to be in one of the shoots that I got to be in with a cute boy. Girls in general get jealous easily, but in the modeling industry they can take it to extremes. Most of the time I get along very well with girls. It's once in a blue moon that there is rigidness between us. I handle jealousy by ignoring it and not stooping down to that level. I always stick to the phrase - if you don't have  anything nice to say, don't say it at all.” ~Savanna   



Zoey's Modeling Tips: 1. Remember every model is beautiful in their own way. 2. The clients already have in mind the look they want for the shoot, so it is not based on who is more beautiful. 3. Inward beauty often radiates onto the camera (and client) this will give a model an extra edge.
