I think someone said that the girls don't get money for the show, at least not many in any case!

They at least get paid for the use of their image.

I doubt girls like Joan, Karlie before her contact & Jac who have beauty contracts, are big HF names and make a shit lot of money for less time and effort than what VS requires would walk the show for free considering it's such a long job. They don't need the VS PR.

 

Some of the newcomers to the industry would probably walk for free for sure, but the big names? Nope.

No matter how big honour is to walk VSFS it's still a job for models. Why wouldn't they get paid for this? Angel contract is also many girls dream but they're getting money from it. A lot money

I think the girls get paid but not as much as the angels of course and they probably do the show just too get their name out there a little more and what not but I doubt they don't get paid anything and do the show for free beccause like Avika said at the end of the day whether it is an honour to walk the show and whatever its still a job and time is money and people got bills to pay.

It's not racism it's the truth. We just spoke about how Sigrid, Martha, Lindsay etc all look the same but nothing is said about that why cause they're blonde and white? Jasmine, Arlenis, Gracie, Emanuela etc look very similar. It's not racist to say that. Mistakes are made people can think someone looks like someone else. To some people certain girls look similar. At first I used to get Emanuela and Gracie confused.

Sigrid looks nothing like Martha, and neither of those two look anything like Lindsay. All of them have different facial features as well as body builds, so it would take a blind individual to actually think they seem alike. The only blondes that are even compareable as looking similar would be Lindsay and Elsa because they both have thin noses, they're blonde, and they have big blue doe-eyes... and those two are still a stretch.

 

As for Jasmine, Arlenis, Gracie, Emanuela, and Lais, it's false too. I can see Jasmine and Lais being compared because they have similar facial features as well as Gracie and Emanuela because those two are EXTREMELEY similar and I confused them at first; however, Arlenis and Jasmine only have similar skin tones in common. Jasmine also has a slimmer frame facially and physically. Arlenis, on the other hand, is wider, and, her nose especially, is bigger. Besides, the user said "they all look alike" and the only thing that would come to anyone's mind is models of color mainly due to the fact that they're specific and the brand has very few models of color that they use on a regular basis.

 

THAT is why I thought what he said was racist.

Arlenis is of African and Indigenous descent and very much looks it. Jasmine looks like she's of predominantly African descent with European ancestry as well. I don't see how either of them favors the other, besides having similar skin tones.

I'm not attacking you I'm just stating that people look alike. You can tell the difference apart between Martha and Sigrid but truthfully at first glance I didn't know who was who. Same could be said about any girl. I know the difference between Jasmine, Lais etc but other people might not. I know the colour of the skin is the big factor but it's doesn't make one racist to say a group of girls of colour look alike when plenty of people say a group of white girls with blonde hair look alike. People just pick and chose what's racist these days and I hate when race is brought in. To get a bit personal I'm Australian but come from half armenian half Lebanese culture. I have dark skin and about 8 out of 10 people who meet me think I'm Indian. I don't find that racist because people just makes mistakes because I look similar to Indian people. Should they ask before assuming, of course but it's not racism. To me anyway. Do you know what I mean? Off topic I know lol.

That's totally understandable, and it's not just involving the models of color. I also find it rude when people say that about blondes, and it's annoying when the blonde angels are always compared to one another. It's just like saying their hair/skin color is the only thing defining them, when there's so much more when it comes to their personality, faces, and bodies. Also catagorizing it as "they all" is a bit uncouth when speaking about someone. Too many people jump on models as soon as they get a chance to, and I feel as if some comments are a bit too personal and a bit too unneccessary on subjects like that.
