Modeling Red Flags

[Roundeux]

@meekakitty

That's how I'm going to dance at prom now. It's decided.

[thatisfunnyveryfunny]

basically if any modelling agency asks for money, they suck.

[alittlenothing00]

You're even more awesome for doing these videos. Kudos to you (and I'm not even interested in becoming a model)

[logisysmax20]

What song is this?

[DRIZZTBABY01]

I'm hearing someone say "Tessa" at 1:50 on all of these!

[wishesoutofairplanes]

@DRIZZTBABY01 how did you hear someone say tessa at 1:50 when the video is only 1:04 long????!!!!?!?!??!!!!11

[DRIZZTBABY01]

@wishesoutofairplanes whoops put it on the wrong video! XP i had several Tessa vids up on different tabs! :S

[wishesoutofairplanes]

@DRIZZTBABY01 lmao, i was hoping you were not wrong, and knew some voodoo/magic....and were maybe going to share it with us....but no, i still have to keep looking...

[mr1880]

Awesome dancing at the end

[NeuroticNightmares07]

Hahaha..there is a red flag that pops up on your video. It said where oh where is my period.

[Sassymui8]

@TheSocialRemedy I agree. Also don't go to China, or North Korea to model.. you'll get scammed there. The best place is Europe beacuse it's fashion center of the world. Everyone is wearing Western clothing today - from Asia to Europe, we wear jeans, sport shoes, suits & ties, caps, T-shirts, western trousers etc

[6rayne6]

Wish someone told me all this stuff when I got scouted in a small town years ago! LOL

Conventions? Yep I went! Paid shoots? Done. Paid course? Bingo. >_<

One or two of the shoots were worthwhile because agents know that some girls who look great in person turn out not very photogenic... but most will pay for a test shoot at least!

Great info Ms. Kitty! <3

[Mazy2Mouse3]

Which company do u model fr

[LunarEclipse135]

LOL, the advertisment next to the video is a scam modelling agency XD

[gothbunny12345678910]

[VibesNaella]

Love these videos!

[iloveJesuschris]

My modleing Agency does this all the time



[FashionCapital1]

[FashionCapital1]

Omygoodness! i love u! was just watchn ur vids and just have to say this is amazing advice!! would have been great to have heard of this 2 years ago wen i got scouted my this modellin agency in my town by this modelling agency Eire that ended up being a TOTAL scam!!! ..... read next comment....

[Otustelija]

I wonder how tall Meekakitty is...

[ttererauld]

[jasperH123]

[TheALEXdoa]

[bubbles9630]

[hallerose19]

how come the Scams one is gone?

[silverhappiness]

Models direct is a SCAM!!!!

[thenamesbanana]

This is honestly what I was looking for.

Thank you so much.

[Topgun1808]

Fun times

[zcdarktide]

John Robert Powers just tried to scam me recently... watch out for them =\

[Kitye666]

@zcdarktide they called my house about 100 times last year to get me to try and model because my friend went in for a meeting with them. They were asking for around $3000 upfront.

SCAMM

[missbrightsidetv]

You forgot: Free Test = photographer guy wants to see you nekkid.

[christineIee]

@Skaarj11 because in that video, tessa reveals the phony agencies that scam people for their money, one of them being john robert powers.

[yogirl10601060]

my figure skating coach is also the person that works @ the modeling agency for signing people or whatever. We are so close she would never scam me :) i can trust her :)

[SideEffectAfterMe]

I agree awesome ending but

I

Don't see why people talk shit bout her and how she's annoying ??? She's NOT annoying and if u think that Tessa is than don't watch the videos as simple as tht ;)

[xxcrimxx]

Best ending ever.

[donovan1971]

I think it's great that you took the time to do this topic. It's nice that you're letting aspiring models now which directions are the proper ones.

[ModelMayhem13]

do you know if one source talent is a scam??? ive herd differnt things??

[medvih1frostmane1]

lol gay street picture

[31diva2]

u were alot of help..an u have a wonderful personality!

[chubbybaby132]

ur scam link didnt work T.T

[SteableDvD]

gay street :P

[megzzlovesyouu1]

your a freak.

[mckenna0621]

@megzzlovesyouu1 your a freak! Shes trying to help you if you want to be a model, if you want to be a model, listen to her! And if you don't like the video, don't favorite, don't like, and don't comment!

[linkinparklyrics1]

@megzzlovesyouu1 so is your mom

[00angel00girl00]

@megzzlovesyouu1 Don't be trollin'

[taekwondogrl006]

@RayGordon3a but decent people don't bash videos that people have obviously worked hard on. Leave her alone.

[iTzREWiiND]

gay st?

[lilsamich47]

@RayGordon3a But I really hope things turn around for you. You're in my culty religious prayers :)

[lilsamich47]

@RayGordon3a And it is extremely hard to get into the modeling industry. There are WAY more unemployed models than unemployed graduates with PhDs.

Google is a SEARCH ENGINE. You use it to SEARCH things. It will take you to legitimate and ILLEGITIMATE sites based on some key words. The sites you end up clicking on in your abyss of results are yours to decide whether or not they are legit. I'm sorry about your NOT-a-prostitute dead mother. Trolling the internet isn't going to fix your problem.

[lilsamich47]

@RayGordon3a This is posted here because I cannot comment on your profile as you did mine.

You are clearly a very angry person. I don't know who tormented you as a child, but I'm sorry.

IF you don't want to be patronized, then don't make childish assumptions or generalizations, okay? Simple.

Models are stupid - Stereotype. You may as well be saying black people like fried chicken. It's sometimes true, but I can name five right off the top of my head that don't (three of whom are vegetarians).

[punkiminimimi]

omg.. my friend just signed with some agency that came to our school and they charged her $2000 in fees..

[lilsamich47]

@RayGordon3a wow okay. It was a simple statement. Calm down. This is was we call trolling. Take a chill pill. Jesus love you. Amen.

[Pinkynose499]

awesome :) my friends' sis is a model

[aaronl22]

google is your friend.. SERIOUSLY?!!!

[MusicGirl468]

y did u remove the scam thing and wat agency did u go to??

[Ultrasonic00]

What happened to the scams video?!?

[GhostlyGirl09]

0:41-1:04  LOLZ

[bonchidude]

Thanks for the info but you may need professional help. :D heh heh heh

[Mssidnee]

Ok so the sign in the background that says GAYst is in Baltimore I saw it when I went there

[jewbilee666]

Just Google "advance fee fraud"

[cheargirl1]

you have made this all so much easier to understand thank u

[shivster1000]

meekakitty is awseome and so are her vids... she will do great things...

[4thel0ve]

I wish all the peeps I know who were excited about being "accepted" into a modelling agency would see this vid.

.

My heart sinks everytime they tell me they "only" have to pay (several hundred dollars!!) to "get started". They blow it off when I say excessive upfront fees = scams.

.

Maybe they'll listen to you.

[Sandithia]

GOOGLE is my friend...

[Shehdginger]

whats with the dance girl....looool

[bad88dude]

Epic meekakitty dance on the end was so ...

Epic

[BassManGilbert]

Are you singing I dream of Jeanie?

[hekero]

Can you sub the vids??

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE

[kategirl4815]

Why did she take away the Scams link?

[kategirl4815]

Why did she take away the Scams link?

[tori52798]

I looked up my agency, and there were like 32 thousand results. But when I looked at the first page, it said like "I don't know where all this scam stuff came from." or "this agency isn't a scam!" etc. So what do I do?

[Myhai11111]

uhm u said that girl who was 5'7 and 1/2 could never do runway, could i do runway if i'm a guy and i'm 5'9? I mean i think i have everything it takes to be any kind of model, athletic physique, good bone structure, not too skinny and not too muscular either, determination, potential, perseverence, charisma, and so on... and i'm like 156 lbs.

[Kl4pp5tuhl]

Wait, what happened to the Scam-Part? Why did you remove it?

[Nani101]

@Kl4pp5tuhl

I don't know for sure, but I'm guessing people saw it and did not like that they were being called scams and threatened her.

*paranoid predictions here*

[OperaNotes]

@Nani101 LOL.

[dancechick67]

i have a maganer, but she charged a 75 dollar one-time starting fee. is that a scam? should i quit being with her, because I already paid it!

[IWantMyVisionBack]

you got Scammed!

[ashthesmart1]

lol tessa is at ray's appartment:P

[pinkfreak167]

what happened to the scams video?D: it disappeared!!!!!!!1!!!!

[rapboyhed]

Confused ... your are at Ray again ? :))

[TheJontastic]

google is your friend. LOL.

[Ewiryh]

Omg !!

CUTSIES DANCE !! X3

[SpaceSargentShnoogie]

Your scam vid was taken off

Oh and nice moves and shirt =9

[JadeyChi]

@SpaceSargentShnoogie Probably because certain scam agencies didn't appreciate being called scams. It's slander without any proof...

[mrsnakeboy1]

i love you dance moves lol XD

[MegTao]

The scams link is broken?

[AlexaLuvs]

my friend just had a fashion show this past weekend i think she did have to pay like 20 bucks for a 1 hour lesson cuz she had never done it before and she needed someone to show her how but it wanst thoru her agentsy

[starella999]

i wish that i would have seen this video earlier. i got a modeling job with this company called model productions and we payed over $250 dollars in fees. i looked up model productions scam and i bunch of links came up and i read them. but at least i got some nice head shots. and there are still a bunch of jobs on the website.

[Johan22333]

@meekakitty  why did you stop moddeling ?

[meesternadim]

whats wrong with this guy?

[julianne24601]

yeah i just went to an agency few days ago- 2nd one that tells me i need to pay for a few things.

First one: $350 for:

photo shoot

website set up

Second on: $590 for:

photo shoot

stupid cards with the photos on it and your details.

and both these were posted on a JOB SEARCHING SITE

[zombielocky]

although i don't care about modeling, let alone female modeling because i am a dude, i think it is really good what you are doing for young aspiring models all across youtube :)

[thegirlinthebluewig]

When I was a child of like 7/8 I used to model.

My modelling agency asked a fee and they were okay, so even though in most cases it's a red flag, not everyone who asks you a fee is. I got plenty of jobs through my agency, unfortunately you do have to pay if you don't get a job in one year, and it's the same amount as the entrance fee. Oh, and they take pictures of you first, for like 5 euros. haha. Too bad I'm too small to model any more ): dunno if there are petite agencies here in Holland..

[iluvNYC1231]

haha luvv the dancing at the end!

[ImmortalDestructor]

Me too, it was wonderfully ridiculous!

[iluvNYC1231]

@ImmortalDestructor thats whats just so awesome about her...... haha

[BigNorman14]

christ meekakitty... sellout much? I've almost unsubscribed simply due to all this modeling spam. make a different channel and mention it next time you decide to accept a promo/gig

[yesdylan]

How is this a promo or a gig? She hasn't mentioned a modelling agency, thus she's not advertising for anyone.

Explain how she's selling out pls.

[YourSoNice28]

@BigNorman14 People have been asking about it .. A LOT. The nicest thing she can do is tell them tips since she did do high fashion to inspire them and to protect them from scams. There is no "Spam" in this

[marianopicco]

She just made some videos for people interesting in modelling man... instead of doing a huge boring one she decided to chop them down in different small ones... I very much doubt she's getting a cent from all this.

[Zavedi234]

But it's very nice of her....I'm interested in modelling myself.

[AmonAmarth02]

@marianopicco

What a joke.

Notice the advertisement 15 seconds in? That means she's getting money.

Since all these videos have like 300,000 views (roughly 300-400 dollars for each video) she has made a ton of money from this.

It's a gimmick that all the popular people on youtube do to make money.

[marianopicco]

@AmonAmarth02 So you're saying its like 1 dollar per 1000 views hm?

Where's my 16 dollars? I haven't seen my dollar. I have at least 1 video with 16,000 views. I want my dollars!!!!

You're an idiot.

[AmonAmarth02]

@marianopicco

You're the idiot.

She's a youtube partner, you're not.

How embarrassing. You just made a complete ass out of yourself.

[marianopicco]

@AmonAmarth02 On no!!! She is?

Don't tell me she also won like 100 grand in a youtube contest? what? she did?! Oh shit.

Any more news you wanna give us?

The original discussion was if she was getting money from the modeling agencies she was recommending here, like "advertising as safe". And you talk about google ad-sense ads that show up in every fucking video including mine.

Why don't you check what you're commenting on before you go all white knight know-it-all fuckface? Idiot.

[AmonAmarth02]

@marianopicco

Adsense does not show up in every video. If it shows up in yours, that means someone else is getting money from your video. Probably because you used copyrighted material.

If you were actually just talking about the modeling agencies paying her, the fact that she split the video up into parts would be irrelevant.

You're only insulting me because you know you're wrong. You should probably show yourself out before you embarrass yourself further.

[marianopicco]

@AmonAmarth02 Yeah too bad my comment got like 200 thumbs up and you're just being an ignorant asshole.

And no, Google owns Youtube and they can put adverts wherever they please. If someone is making money off my adverts, it's probably google.

[AmonAmarth02]

@marianopicco

The whole reason the partnership program exists is so that ads don't put on copyrighted material. If Google puts ads on "whatever they please" and earn revenue without consent, they can be sued.

But I'm just an "ignorant asshole". Unfortunately for you, I'm right. Which makes you even worse than an "ignorant asshole"

The "200 thumbs up" just proves there are over 200 idiots that don't realize she does this for money. Not for her pathetic fangirls like yourself.

[marianopicco]

@AmonAmarth02 First of all, I'm a guy. Second, I have videos in my profile which have copyrighted material and don't have adsense into them. Third, stop being butthurt and jealous, go get a job or something.

All this shit coming from someone who all he has is "Quit sending me friend invites and quit subscribing to me, you annoying little pricks." in his profile, it must mean you just surf through YouTube trying to troll wherever you can. You're pathetic, move on.

[AmonAmarth02]

@marianopicco

My initial reply was just informing you that she profits off this, yet you responded by calling me an idiot. Now you're telling me to get a job, and calling me butthurt, and I'M the troll?

I wrote that on my profile before I had even made a comment with this channel, because people keep subscribing to me so that they get another hit on their channel.

And for the record, I don't need a job. I'll just make a 20 part video and put ads on every one.

[marianopicco]

@AmonAmarth02 Oh I'd love to see that, since you told me to "come out" or something like that, when you're the one not having 1 single piece of information about yourself in your profile. It's easy to be brave behind the keyboard isn't it?

Keep at it, troll.

[AmonAmarth02]

@marianopicco

You're confusing me with someone else you've trolled. I never told you to "come out"

Sorry I don't make my personal information public online.

But if you insist, feel free to book a plane over to north america. Just because I stand up for myself on the internet doesn't mean I don't in real life.

[emmanuel322]

@marianopicco uhmm did you see the commercial at the beginning...yeah...shes getting dollars...and the more vids she has up the merrier.

[marianopicco]

@emmanuel322 I didn't get a commercial. Sucks to live where you do.
