Watch Your Step


This video is pretty funny. It's a compilation of models falling on the catwalk, on the catwalk - yeah. So, ok, you get a chuckle out of watching people fall. But think about it...for one second....this is their job we're talking about. Their job is to walk that runway - and they can't. Models have such an attitude all the time about the perception that they are stupid. What's the game show called, America's Most Smartest Model? The one girl is explaining herself in the video and says "...well the catwalks...sometimes they're 45 meters long". Wow. Yet, somehow, I'm able to walk from my car to my office every day through all kinds of weather without falling down. If you really think about it, what else could you compare a catwalk model falling down to? I'm having a hard time coming up with anything. Ok, here's the deal, you get $10,000 tonight for wearing this and walking down that catwalk and back four times. Think you can handle that? Good! Maybe their little leg muscles just give out? Can't take it any more. Must....get......cigarette........ We're talking about walking! Getting paid to walk! This person gets paid a ton of money because they were born looking the way they look. Their parents should get a cut of their check. They have no skills and they don't contribute to society. They are treated as objects and sometimes made to wear things at shows that nobody in 1,000,000 years will buy unless they're going to party where everyone is supposed to dress like a Rose Bowl Parade float. You, walk down to the end, stop for 5 seconds, turn around and come back.....got it? Our best friends had a salon day for their girl's birthday party. At the end they roll out a catwalk and they have a makeshift stage. Parents lined the walk as the girls (ages 5-8) walked the aisle, rocked a pose at the end, turned around and came back. Each girl did at least 3 passes......wait for it......yes every single one miraculously made it through without falling.
