Every actor is a model to a certain extent, since they have to do so much press.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Not every model wants to be an actress.
Hardly any actor objects to press. It's a question of it being done in the way they like to see it done, meaning to get down to the serious interview what the profession is so we can reach out to the people to help them get along.
Modelling is only about the look. In acting, it's the feel that matters.
For me, actors have to have a character, an aura, body language. They're not models. They used to call actors models. But I want them to participate in the film.
As a model you do play a certain role and you know as an actor you play another role.
To me, it's a little odd to ever think 'model into actor.' I modeled once. I was about as far from a decent model as you can possibly be. I did not enjoy the world at all. I fell in my stilettos quite a bit.
You never really know as an actor; it's completely out of your control, in terms of editing, and music, and film stock, shot selection, and what takes they use.
Modeling is really silent acting.
People attach too much to the idea of being a model, that you can only be a certain way to have done it. You will always be dealing with it. You're an actor who used to be a model who never trained; there are not many directors queuing up.
It really bugs me the way people criticise how actors look. We're not models. Models exist.
