I was flipping through Seventeen Magazine when I got to the advertising page. I found an ad for Barbizon Modeling & Acting Centers, and on a whim, I figured I would go to their site. So I went there, and they had a 'contact us' section. I went to the Barbizon Houston site, and I contacted them. I have no professional modeling/acting experience, I definetely don't have model looks, and I'm not very much into clothing or fashion. I emphasized my willingness to try new things and meet new people rather than my looks. If they call me back and I set up an interview with them, I have a very strange feeling I might get turned down because of my looks. But I don't know, though. I think it would be fun and all. What do you guys think?

I know this is an old topic, but here I go anyways...
K so. I went to Barbizon. Basically, they accept ANYONE who auditions. Well, anyone who can pay the nearly $2000 fee. I guess I got caught up into it & felt like I was special because they accepted so I did it. It was a fun experience..kind of. Nothing really came out it though. At the end we ended up paying another $300 for a photo shoot...and then, that was it. They promised me a list of agencies or whatever? But i never got it.
Then they contacted me later on for an audition to go to New York and be in some model thing, I don't even remember what it was about. But I made it. I'm pretty sure they didn't accpet everyone into that though. It was $5000 to go, and my mom wanted me too. But I made the choice not to. Because $5000 is just wayyyy too much. Especially when we don't even have it. I mean, we do...but we don't wanna use it on THAT. Then I auditioned again for some other modeling thingy. &I made it. It was to go to Orange County for some other thingy, but it wasl ike $500. So I didn't go. I don't see why modeling should cost so much. So blah w/e. This post is unecessarily long. Bye.
