Would you do it?

So this kind of jumps off a previous thread, but probably more likely than getting an offer from Playboy.


So lets say you're at the gym .. and some guy/girl walks up to you (between sets) and asks you if you'd be interested in modeling.
They give you all the usual info, a business card and seem quite legit.

Would you take them up on the offer?

If so .. what type of modeling would you want to do? (RIGHT NOW) - In your current state. If the gig was this weekend.

    In my state right now? I'd be worried that it was for some weird, kink, fetish type website that involved something like balloons and baby diapers. I think I'd have to pass.

    Would I be modeling gaming gear, like gaming glasses? Would I be sitting at a desk playing on an awesome rig while they take pictures of me? If so, yes. Otherwise, no.

    This made me laugh pretty hard. People at work all turned and looked at me. lol.


    No I said it was legit. This person has all of the documentation to prove its legit.

    No way! I would be afraid I would be locked in a cage and never let out (of course, after about 10 minutes of my talking they would either let me go or cut me up). I don't trust anyone.

    Sure, I would do it, but I can't imagine what on earth it would be for. I can't come up with a single scenario in my head of what I would be qualified to model for at present moment.

    Yes. Show me your portfolio first. My creep-dar is strong, so you'd better be a professional or don't even bother asking me.

    Pay me, and you pick the scenario. I get to say no to anything.

    Don't pay me, and you'd better give me prints, and let me pick them.

    For myself, I want pix of me with my longboard. Yes, naked pix.

    I am an excellent model. I have experience and a portfolio of my own.

    This happened to me years ago at work. I was about 21. I did not take the offer because I was concerned that it could be a danger.

    I'd probably laugh at them, thinking it was a big joke or something.

    This is a dead giveaway. You know nothing about modeling. Nobody waits for you.

    As long as I didn't have to do it naked, I'd do it.

    Happened to me in 2008, for me and my then 2-year-old. A Russian woman approached me on the street. She had a folder with pics of kids and women in print ads, and gave me her card. They wanted my kid for print ads and me I think for some sort of large-size women's shop (language barriers were there). I wasn't plus-sized, but I was hyoooooge in Japan.

    I know that the answer is no. I thought it was a scam. Turned out it wasn't because a friend put his daughters in the same agency for print ads.

    Live and learn.

    I was a hair model for a while. It's easy work and pays well. If it was a legitimate offer, I'd do it, but no one would ask me to model now, because I'm all old and ****.
