Talk about overreacting:
From a model's portfolio: "I AM NOT INTERESTED IN ANY TYPE OF NUDE WORK WHATSOEVER! ALL NUDE OFFERS WILL BE REPORTED TO THE PROPER AUTHORITIES AND THEN FORWARDED TO THE FBI!" The model has her age listed as 27. Apr 25 06 10:22 pm Link oopps Apr 25 06 10:25 pm Link Is her nudity a matter of national security? LOL. I'd say that's over-reacting! oohhh, ooohh, I know....Osama is hiding under her dress! Apr 25 06 10:26 pm Link Wow!!! I agree, a bit on the panic button it seems. At least it is out there so no one will waste their time, yes. Hard to imagine one going through life all worked up such as that though. Takes all kinds I suppose. Cheers Ak Apr 25 06 10:26 pm Link Nude or otherwise, I'd like to thank that model for her warning to *not* work with her. Holy crap! Nothing good could come of that... Drama... Apr 25 06 10:43 pm Link Does she look young? My guess is she is underage and is used to myspace. On myspace it is a common practice for minors to state their age as any number over 18. This is because of pedos using the age search function to look for minors.She probably got hit on by a lot of pedos when she used her real age on myspace. Apr 25 06 10:46 pm Link *ring* *ring* Phone: FBI, Agent Johnson. Model: Yes, I'm a model and I'd like to report a major crime. I was asked to pose nude. FBI: ....and? Model: I don't do nudes. I want them investigated, and arrested, and locked up for 1,000 years. They are icky evil perverts, and I want them poonished, now now now. FBI: Uh....you do realize prank calling the Feds is a crime? Model: I'm serious! Now get off your lazy donut eating butts and do something! Arrest this pervert! I want him deaded! FBI: *Click* Kinda how I see that convo going. The Feds have more important things to worry about than this I think.

Apr 25 06 11:05 pm Link i think she ended any chance of getting ANY offers Apr 25 06 11:09 pm Link Glamour Boulevard wrote: If she's 15 or 16, I will slam my pecker in the sliding glass door. Trust me, this chick isn't under 18. I'd show you, but I've closed out the window and don't feel like trying to her again. Apr 25 06 11:13 pm Link BTW, does anyone have contact information on the "Department of Nude Requests"? Apr 25 06 11:14 pm Link Bob Hubbard wrote: That is hilarious! ROFLMAO! Apr 25 06 11:15 pm Link LOL!!!!! that is ridiculous! Apr 25 06 11:18 pm Link I always thought nice tits were a matter of national importance, but jeez. Apr 25 06 11:21 pm Link Bob Hubbard wrote: Yeah I agree I see it going ALOT like that. Some poeple need to calm down. Apr 25 06 11:23 pm Link I only see one model commenting in here, so I'll have to speak on behalf of 3 models who have shared their e-mails with me. If anyone recalls some of the stupid e-mails I posted about models wanting me to hire them, give them all images etc. etc, here is the other side. Even with all that overkill on the no nudes, bet that more than half her inquiries are for nude work. Like it's the "photographers" (as opposed to real photographers) that make these statements happen. I would see that as a statement of frustration rather than arrogance. A "photographer" is a GWC whose main intention is to get the model nekkie. But no, Mr GWC, you don't qualify in this group cause you have a sense of humor. So honestly, rather than plasting this model for a statement like that, why not consider all options and see if maybe you should pity her for what she's had to endure in trying to get non-nude work? Worth considering, I hope. Andy Apr 25 06 11:26 pm Link But yea, the FBI bit is over the top. Apr 25 06 11:27 pm Link I'm sorry, but I am a female photographer who doesn't have any requirements for nudity to shoot with someone, and something worded that strongly would NOT make me feel sorry for her. It would make me want to stay as far away from her as possible. She just doesn't sound like someone who would be fun to shoot. Even from a 'tfp' standpoint, it is crucial to me that i feel that I will 'click' with the model and they and I will have fun...If I am paying someone, there is no way in HELL I would put up with an attitude like that. And, with that in her profile, it sure as hell doesn't sound like she has an idea in her head to pay ME to shoot what SHE wants to shoot.

Apr 26 06 07:31 am Link Maybe she thinks the FBI would also like to see her naked? Or maybe she would like to be in their "Girls of the FBI" nude calendar? Apr 26 06 07:34 am Link Oh man...send me her name! I'm going to ask her to do nudes and see what happens! Or maybe we could get GWC to ask her! That would be even better!!! This could get very amusing... Apr 26 06 07:54 am Link Olaf S wrote: I believe GWC has a slammin' shoot with Gretchen Mol this weekend, so he's pretty booked up. Apr 26 06 07:58 am Link Yeah we should all ask her to pose nude and see what happens! lol Apr 26 06 07:59 am Link Melvin Moten Jr wrote: Yeah, I think you're right, I read about that. I wish I could get those shoots.... Apr 26 06 08:02 am Link John Jebbia wrote: Hmm what a dumb *insert curse word here* Apr 26 06 08:04 am Link They are everywhere.. Subject: available for tfcd? adm2 01/21/06 7:48 AM (Message read) Hi (model), Thanks for the friends request. I did check out your portfolio and would be interested in working with you for tfcd if you travel to this area. Let me know if you are interested and we can discuss schedules and details. Doris (model) 01/21/06 10:12 AM nude? adm2 01/21/06 12:01 PM (Message read) I didn't have nude in mind when I wrote, but rather, a variety of styles... casual, fashion, glamour/maxim. If you are interested in doing lingerie and nude we can also shoot those. (model) 01/21/06 12:05 PM how much? and where? (model) 01/21/06 12:05 PM no nude adm2 01/21/06 3:51 PM (Message read) how much-TFCD where- gta east I never asked you for nudes. End of discussion..never heard back from her. Apr 26 06 08:04 am Link I love how you ask to shoot TFCD and she asks how much lol. How much what? Apr 26 06 08:06 am Link Afterward it occurred to me she meant 'how much' would I be paying her.. Apr 26 06 08:10 am Link TFCD does NOT mean time for cash/dollars Apr 26 06 08:12 am Link just as an aside...she still has only the few original shots she started her port with in January Apr 26 06 08:16 am Link You know guys, this model might have been kidding. Perhaps she thought by making such an outlandish statement, it would be apparent that she was merely exaggerating (though, it might have been a good idea on her part to make it completely obvious that she was joking) . Just a thought J. Apr 26 06 08:16 am Link i sorta feel like the angy uncle who would always bluster "THIS WOULD NEVER HAVE HAPPENED IN J EDGAR HOOVER'S FBI!!" also, this sort of reminds me of the recording that was circulating the internet a while back of the woman who called 911 when Burger King got her cheeseburger orders wrong twice in a row. that's some good perspective there, people. Apr 26 06 08:16 am Link We should all ask her to pose nude. Then when she reports all of us to the FBI, she may get on the FBI's "Ten Most Stupid People" list. mjr. Apr 26 06 08:19 am Link Melvin Moten Jr wrote: She like TOTALLY no-showed me. So there I was with my MUA (Cathy, our head waitress who is like totally awesome with eyeshadow) and my camera and my light and we waited and waited and she DIDNT EVEN CALL TO TELL US SHE WAS LATE. In fact she still hasnt showed up yet but I am going to give that b*ch another hour and file a missing persons report with the FBI or something.
