Liar, Liar, Pants on Fire

written on August 26, 2009 in Reviews, Stardom

Dear NYMMG (Model Management Group),

First off, you are a bunch of big fat liars and scammers. However, I can only blame myself as I was too blinded by my own dream of stardom to realize the kind of rip-off you guys were trying to sell to hopeful models and actors like myself.

• $3000 for a photoshoot with some photographer you forced me to work with¹
• $1000² to print out a bunch of comp cards
• $900/year to be on your “web database”

If all this upfront money isn’t bullshit, I don’t know what is. And the ironic thing is, of the 2 years I have worked with you, I’ve made a total of $500. Yes, $500 after spending all that money, not to mention missing classes so I can commute 5 damn hours on some smelly Chinatown bus to New York, only to go through the same commute 3 hours later. The rest of the shit you send me to are castings and more castings, and even those are few and rare.

I don’t care if you’re based in New York, the great fashion capital of the US or if you have a page filled with your “successful models and actors” (which just looks desperate in my opinion), I have made more money and gotten more work in the DC area within the past half year than I have with YOU. Do you know how SAD and PATHETIC that is? As a matter of fact, one of my greatest achievements so far, modeling for Korto Momolu, happened through my agent in DC, not through your big pompous-ass of an agency.

So you know what? You can take your retarded castings and auditions and shove them up your asses and light it on fire, because that’s exactly what you guys are, a bunch of liars. Good riddance!

No love,

Mimi

PS. Before you start bitching at me for the one time I declined to show up to another one of your shitty castings, how about that time you made me go, only to have me wake up at 6 am, ride the smelly bus, get to New York, and have you tell me that it has been canceled? Yeah, that’s right, karma is a bitch, now go cry me a river.Error processing request

I just got back from NYC this past weekend after a trip with the boyfriend, a friend, and her boyfriends. I do believe this was the first time I’ve been to New York purely for vacation since I last went in 4th grade. All the other times were for work, so I never really got to enjoy the city and all its fun-ness. We spent most of our trip in Chinatown, visiting Koreatown for a yummy dinner at the IchiUmi buffet :9 We also would’ve stopped for some Pinkberry froyo, but we were all too full after dinner. Chinatown was fun, a bit smelly, crowded, and dirty, but fun nonetheless. My friend and I were ecstatic when we found cute bowls and plates and cups for our apartment next year:
